Drew Gooden said "We need more fans in this building Mayor Browser". Par for the course. Damn do I miss Buck and Phil and how cool would it have been for them to be here when the team is actually good.

It’s a layup line. They aren’t even guarding Rui and he’s just getting buckets

Again tonight, our bench shooting is over the top. They've produced 30 points on 21 shots.

Bertans with a few mental errors - including fouling a 3 point shooter, turning it over - trying to give Beal the opportunity to get the scoring title and for Russ to get 30 assists.

We have no rim protection. Why the heck is Lopez in instead of Gafford who only played 5 mins???

Ish Smith has quietly been really good off the bench since returning from injury.

Defensively, they are doing a nice job on Sabonis since early on forcing him right or double teaming him.

What is this lineup LOL. I guess Hutchison has replaced Mathews completely?

Westbrook might catch Skiles with 30 assists.

Westbrook might end up with a 20/20/20 night.

Hutchison isn’t very good, but he doesn’t kill you the way Jerome Robinson did

Yeah. He's a better, more versatile defender; and he doesn't shoot as much.

Can't argue with the results. Lately, whatever Brooks has touched turns to gold. He can play Gafford, a player that has turned the team around on defense, five (great) minutes through three quarters and his squad is blowing out Indiana.

Yep. And he is an upgrade defensively. Much bigger.

Centers for the Wizards are a combined 13-14 from the field for 31 points.

Bertans is underrated defensively.

The Wizards refuse to put this team away.
