Timberwolves cant keep up with our offense. Wiz will win 133 - 127.

I'm not ready to start saying we "should" anything.

The Wizards will be a high beta team due to the number of 3's they launch. If they're not hitting their 3's, they can lose to anyone.

Yep, but same could be said of the Wolves, who launch even more 3s and only connect 30% of the time. That figure itself is buttressed by Townes' .539 % on a high volume of threes. We should thank Embiid, who might be a hilarious new version of Kevin Garnett.

Unless Wolves break out of their longball slump, it may not matter if Wizards are hitting 3s. Wizards 138-124. Or not.

TBJr is starting tonight?

If he is it will be nice to see bonga against other bench players. Hes a good active defender. Should be good to watch

Hoosier center night!

If this were the Wizards of the last 10 years, Vonleh would go off for 30-10. I don't think that's going to happen.

Gorgui is starting at center, not Vonleh

Really rough start offensively so far. Nobody can make anything.

Not a good start. Bring Bertans in!

Not sure Bonga knows what he's doing sometimes. Missed a few rotations and then didn't pickup a wide open wiggins on the break

Bonga looks completely lost there. Wiggins is his man.

I'm liking how Beal is earning trips to the FT line.

What does Brooks see in Bonga?

He sees Bonga as the only natural SF on the roster who doesn't have a minutes limitation.

Yea Bonga just needs to go. Give me Troy Brown. Bonga just fouls too much and doesnt play smart defense

Our defense is swiss cheese right now.
