GT #45: Wizards @ Hornets -- 7 PM 

Post#1 » by dckingsfan » Wed Jan 17, 2018 11:35 pm

Time for a new streak. The Wizards traditionally struggle when a team has a rim protector.

Focusing on the positive - the bench continues to improve. The negative - 23 TOs at home won't get it done - it definitely won't on the road.

Bring it home ducler!

Hopefully they can focus and try to put defense first. Lead to some fast break opportunities and mismatches on the defensive end.

Howard is no longer a rim protector, he's a stat collector. He can't defend P&Rs which is the big reason why Atlanta moved on. His impact on the court is basically nil nowadays despite the numbers.

The Hornets were a much better team with a healthy Cody Zeller.

Down 7-16, should I watch?

Eddie Jordan watching from behind Charlotte bench.

They have not missed yet...

Charlotte with 30 points in the first 8 minutes. They will almost definitely score 40 this quarter.

Heck they might get 50

Since letting Charlotte hit the first 12 shots Washington is playing a whole lot better


Mahinmi just rejected Dwight Howard


Gortat denied him earlier for a steal

Ok. I've seen enough.

Time to get some of the starters back in the game.

President Donald Trump referred to African countries, Haiti and El Salvador as "shithole" nations during a meeting Thursday and asked why the U.S. can't have more immigrants from Norway.

I wish Walker had hit that 3 to make it an 80 point first half for Charlotte

The last 3 minutes of the second quarter...

John Wall and Bradley Beal...

How fast can I shoot it by myself all by myself?
