No chance tonight. We don't beat well-coached, disciplined teams with talent. Well, except for Miami that one time.

By the way, ducler, Hachimura is out. Last time, they started Bryant at PF but it didn't really work out. I expect either Bonga or Bertans to start.

I'll do just about anything to get Isaiah Thomas out of the rotation.

We going to have to pull that Tanya Harding/Nancy Kerrigan thing all over again? Or we just need another Bonga nut kick.

Rui in the lineup LOL, dude can't even jump yet.

Beal isn’t right, I wish he’d rest and let his injuries heal.

WTF is Brooks thinking?

You can't start Bonga, Bryant and Mahinmi together. There's no ball skills and no shooting. Start McRae!

I think it's a bit of a cop out to blame injuries. The guy can't shoot. It's getting ridiculous. I don't know what happened to him.

4 turnovers and sloppy play, could be 6 turnovers easily...5 now

Bonga is playing really well. Too bad the rest of the Wizards starters will kill his +/- numbers

Isaiah Thomas is just so awful.

So you think it’s in his head ? If he was a baseball pitcher would we be saying he has the “yips”?

In the first 6 minutes of action, Bonga has 5 points, 5 rebounds, 0 assists, 1 steal and 1 turnover on 2/2 shooting.

The other 4 players COMBINED have 2 points, 0 rebounds, 1 assists, 0 steals and 5 turnovers on 1/7 shooting.

I don't recall ever seeing a worse start to a game.

And not surprisingly, they play much better when Brooks actually puts some qualified wings on the floor.

Brown and Bonga are bringing it tonight!

Too bad everyone else sucks ass.

McRae ankle...

The embarrassing performance of this game is 100% Brooks' fault for putting in that absurd starting lineup. The Wizards were down 20-7 in the blink of an eye. Once he put in a balanced lineup on the floor, the Wizards have played the Raptors even.

But with McRae going down, we're going to have some trouble.

Man, Bertans is 0-3 from three, and 2 of them were WIDE OPEN looks.

Post #18 » by **nate33** » Sat Jan 18, 2020 12:50 am

This is hopeless. I think I'm done.

They should just play Ish, Payton, Brown, Bonga and Pasecniks the rest of the night. Everyone else has been horrible.

Moves need to be made after this game. We might lose by 40

Payton's offensive skills are so limited
