Round 1: GT #6: Raptors @ #SoWizards 7 PM (NBATV/NBCSW/1500 AM)

[FAH1223]

YOUR WASHINGTON BULLETS ARE DOWN 3-2!

With the season on the line, we can expect some type of fukkery to either end or extend the season.

As we all recall, Indiana outclassed the 2014 team in Game 6 and won it in DC.

In 2015, Pierce's three at the buzzer wasn't counted to send the game into OT... because #SoWizards.

And last year, we had some good mojo, with John's game winner against the Celtics to force Game 7.


But as well know, Brooks fukked up as he usually does and didn't give his backcourt rest, didn't play Oubre, and still doesn't give his team a strategic edge.

In a series where the home team has had that extra juice, I'd say the Bullets will win in some crazy fashion ala Game 4.

But I'm bracing for the worst #SoWizards performance of the series.

I don't care that we lost and I started the GT.

This is my city!

Otto may or may not be more aggressive but if you want to assure him being more involved then you play smaller

The thing about Wall is that you don't have to guess if he's tired. You can just look at him. He's sweating perfusley, taking deep breaths, hands on his knees/shorts. You have to at least find 2min. He is always on the ball and he is always pushing the tempo. Then on December he is guarding an all star backcourt. He is going to need some rest.

Even if you don't trust Sato and Ty, just go big with Beal, Porter, and Oubre at the 1, 2, and 3

Beal at PG?

Best time to rest John is the end of the 1st quarter into beginning of 2nd.

Then end of the 3rd to the beginning of the 4th.

You can get him 10 minutes of rest each time through only 2-3 minutes of game action.

Too bad we have a stupid coach.

[Shoe]

We play really well at home in the playoffs, for some reason. CJ Miles is due though for a 4/5 contested 3 night.

Of course that is the best time but why do people keep saying that like it's abnormal. That is what we always do anyways. The point is that Brooks obviously wants John to play more in the playoffs and he doesn't trust Ty or Sato all the way

Otto looked off

he was one of the key players that i thought played well, would help the Wizards.

It sucks that he is not 100%, he is a hell of a player, and a pain in the A** for the Raps and DeMar.

[dlts20]

I missed a lot of the game but was just laughing at what Oubre said about Wright. Why did he say that? Were there some scuffles yesterday

[dlts20]

I'll say this. If we win game 6 then we better win game 7. It would suck so much if we got bounced by the #1 seed in b2b years despite being 6-0 at home against them. Especially when we could have easily won 3 road games in Boston and will probably say the same after this series. It was the same thing with Brooks in okc. He has to be a better 4th quarter coach

When was the last time this franchise won a Game 7 on the road?

1978 NBA Finals?

Oubre said something to the effect that Wright only plays well at home. Where does Oubre play well? Just wondering. Not very smart on the court or off it.

Don't remember any scuffles yesterday, though a few close ones involving KO.

Yeah probably. Although the only other game 7 on the road that the Washington have played since then was against the Celtics. The only other game 7s since 1978 that the Bullets have played were in the 1979 playoffs in the semifinals and conference finals; both were at home and Washington won both. But yeah the Wizards technically have never ever won a game 7.

It just seems like a randomly strange comment to make unless they have been getting into it so I was wondering

[dcstanley]

Meh, seems like we're due for a loss. I think the fact that Casey finally figured out to play JV in the fourth quarter doesn't bode well for us.

Gonna take some serious Wall heroics for the Wizards win. Maybe Beal plays well since we're at home and Gortat continues to play well. Don't expect much from Otto and Markieff.

[Canadafan]

Wizards win easily tonight and then Raps choke gm7.

[zero2hero]

I'd rather us not get smacked by the Cavs in the next round so I'll take quietly bowing out here tonight
