Don’t agree with Monty bringing back his starters.

Man, Cam with an airball...Saric missing the rim and then getting a second chance and barely hitting the rim. Strange night..still only one 3 (Bridges) from our starters, Carter and Galloway.

Wizards are shooting 55% from the field and 48% from 3. We can't hit 3s or defend them. Not gonna win any games when that happens.

Don't think they've earned a rest with how bad they've played. If I'm Monty, I'm telling them 'you want to keep your minutes next game? Go show me something'.

Do you think that's just a coincidence?

No doubt he's playing hard but has barely passed...fewer open 3s unless they sidestep a defender 1st.

Got my multi.
Turning off now.

I am beginning to dread playing these bad teams. We play down to their level and the only one to statistically play well is Booker, who has been a life-long participant on bad teams. The rest all have experience being on good teams and don't know how to play on bad teams so give up when it's failing.

Record after today will be the same as last year after 11 games. Where we go from here is up to the team.

These teams desperate for a win always scare me....but still the 3pt shooting and 3pt defense is inexcusable. Only Bridges has played well and Booker has had a good individual game.

Dario has had a fine game. 13 and 6 thus is pretty standard for him.

He has a good offensive game about every 2-3 bad games.

He’s bound to have a good game in the next one now and then play like **** in the 2-3 games following it.

What's crazy is Beal has not only scored 34, but he's had 9 assists, 7 boards, 2 steals and a block. He's on fire this year.

Down to 21! Our closest margin in a LONG time! If we hit the rest of our shots and they don't hit any, we might have a shot....oh Crowder you messed it up.

Agree with all that. Felt like it was a lot of empty buckets and really felt like he stopped playing within the team offense. He was awesome on Saturday so regardless I'm optimistic he'll start heating up soon

Yay, so now our starters want to wake up, we'll only lose by 17 instead of 30. Moral victories are fun
