Don't understand why people think this guy gonna be magically better on the Wizards. He cannot make his shots.

I don't think very many of us are optimistic about Robinson. I'm certainly not. All I've said is that we have him now and he is a young player. Since this season is a throwaway season, I've got no problem with playing him and seeing what he can do.

So, I actually think his best way forward is to let him develop in the D league. We know who he is and what he needs to develop.

Sorry guys, it might be best not to make a game thread for tonight's game. Wiz just lost to Cavs and Bulls. Milwaukee is... great - perhaps historically great. Last I heard, the point spread was just 13.5. It's going to be worse than that - probably a lot worse. Don't let your children see the carnage.

I really hope this game isn't Beal in score 50 mode.

The problem with a shot dominating player is the ripple effect. Everyone else starts standing and watching. They stop moving on offense, which makes the defense harder to break down. It makes it harder to get rebounds. Players feel uninvolved and aren't playing as hard. They stop getting the 50/50 balls. They don't try as hard on defense. Not on purpose, they are just not as into it as they are when they are more involved. Theres no fire. No momentum. When they do get it on the offensive end, they are out of rhythm, cold, then they miss the shot and lose confidence, and the shot dominant player becomes reinforced in his thought process that he needs to take the shots, and it just snowballs into a loss.
