GT #13: Magic @ Wizards 7 PM (NBCSW/1500 AM)

[FAH1223]

YOUR Washington Bullets ACTUALLY WON A GAME. They did it in Miami due to better defense, the best rebounding game of the season, and some big bench production.

Monday night, they return home to face a team that ran up and down on them on Friday. The Magic have already had some good wins in this young season. The Wizards did not defend them at all in the last game aside from a couple moments in the 2nd half.

Will the Wiz play better or get blown out at home again?

This would be both team's 3rd game in 4 days. Also this would be Orlando's 2nd half of a back to back. You would have to think the Wizards should win this one.

They just blew out the Knicks by 26.

Gordon didn’t play.

One step forward one step back, fully expecting the Wizards cha-cha-cha.

I spoke to John Wall last night. He promised to keep the game close but to look for a thermonuclear meltdown late in the 3rd quarter, enroute to a 15 point loss. He apologized about the last win and is on board for tanking for Zion. He said it's the least he could do b4 he gets shipped out of D.C. Now that my friends is leadership. I'm starting to like Wall again. But I digress........Go Magic!!!

[Knightro]

Isaac is definitely out and I expect Gordon to be held out as well. Wizards definitely figured some things out in the second half of the last meeting that leads me to believe they'll take it down pretty easily tonight. Namely that Wall can go around Augustin whenever he wants and that the Magic under Clifford will consistently overhelp on drives leading to wide open 3PT attempts.

Wizards 110, Magic 101.

This is a scheduling loss for Orlando. We should beat them anyway. I expect a big win, we cover the 8 points.

[youngWizzy]

Wall not getting up leads to an easy Iwundu 3. That happens also too often

[youngWizzy]

Rivers off to a great start

[Jaekast]

I wanna see Wall in a Mystics uniform next year where he belongs. He's one sassy lil b...h.

[Jaekast]

They should try out Beal's mom @ PF. They shrek looking things probably pull 20 boards a game not to mention two hand chest passes thrown the length of the court to ignite the fastbreak. She can be this generations Unseld.

[Jaekast]

But in all fairness all this hate should be toward Ernie. God I hate that motherf......... rat.

[Jaekast]

Go magic!

[Shanghai Kid]

Beal and Morris pretty much killed the team in the 3rd quarter.

[JWizmentality]

Beal is so unreliable. Streaky af. And more consistently bad than good.

[queridiculo]

The all bench lineup has been quietly effective tonight. Also great seeing Satoransky earning some playing time.

[CobraCommander]

.so the board is dead...the wiz look uninterested and the wiz could lose again to a bottom tier team...yep sounds about right

Sleep walking through the season like we playoff warriors..

[WallStar]

These washed up SF's come to DC play a year and cash in during free agency. Ariza, Scott now Green. Who are next years SF's??

[queridiculo]

Stubborn Magic leaving Vucevic in is going to seal this game.
