I'm pleased after game 1.
I just watched an excerpt of the post game on NBA TV. Bradley's got a silver suit on... Scott Brooks they posted his record in the playoffs is 46 - 41... As an older guy I am judging what John Wall is wearing. His colors were Wizards colors. I already know my bias.
The Wizards single biggest problem is their coach. Second is the play of their big two guards in crunch time. Third is the lack of flexibility among their big men to defend by switching or rim protecting. OG Anunoby had his way today. Ibaka hit a lot of perimeter shots. Siakim hit a perimeter shot. And once the flagrant went against Mike Scott, Toronto attacked in the paint time and again.
Coaching is the biggest problem with the Wizards although they could stand to have better personnel. Mike Scott with Markieff Morris is not going to protect the rim.
John Wall continuing to try to force layups and launch once he got frustrated is never going to be put in check by this coach.
Bradley Beal and John Wall are always going to appear to me to be somewhat smug and have blinders on with how they don't help their team at times
Who is Otto Porter? Sure doesn't shoot much when it counts. Does he even get a look or does John just have to go hero mode all the time when things are down.
How I really feel is this team has the talent to go to the NBA finals.
The 1978 bullets won the NBA Championship with a 44 and 38 regular season record. This team is just as good as that one talent-wise pretty much.
This team can win the next four against Toronto but I don't expect it will happen.
Dwane Casey used 10 players and there's no friction on his team. The Wizards have control issues and who does what issues because of this coach and because of their supposed star players. Everybody Eats until it's ISO time.
Scott Brooks is going to Brooks
Who am I and what gives me the right to say these things? I am a child of God. I'm a human being with many opinions on many things. Doesn't matter that I was a military officer 20 years ago. Doesn't matter that I was a college facilitator. Doesn't matter that I have literally taught or substitute taught every grade K through 12 even Pre-K. Doesn't matter that I've been an assistant youth coach with my son's teams. Doesn't matter that I've been a basketball fan for 45 years or that I met Len bias...
What matters is that this point in my life I will tell you exactly who I think I am and I really respect your opinion to dislike me.
I would rather send a message that rich people like everyone on the Wizards team including Ernie grunfeld and Scott Brooks gets to deal with.
Who gives a rip what I think take a vacation somewhere where I can't even afford to be.
But if you want to win put my ideas with your ideas and hopefully things go better in the win Department.
If you saw the movie Captain America... If you saw the movie Black Panther... Use the idealism of the protagonist in all of those movies... And consider me giving you free advice.

One more thing...
Devin Robinson is very athletic. He appears to me to be a much better defensive player than Kelly Oubre...(and maybe also Tomas Satoransky)
Devin Robinson did not get much of a look... You had a guy like Quinn Cook does get a look from his coach and Golden State.
Search and coaches will use all their players. Casey won using 10 players not even including Fred Van Vleet.
The Wizards have a very close-minded non-creative coach and general manager in my opinion.
Please prove me wrong
