Not much defense tonight of the 3 point line and can’t stop the point guard Dinwiddie.

Buzzer beater by Duarte to end half tied. Sabonis and Turner playing well with Brogdon and Duarte ok.
Justin Holiday must be laboring and Carlisle should rest him because he’s not involved much. Brissett still struggling. Lamb much better and McConnell steady.

Justin tweaked the ankle again with about 2 minutes to go in the 1st half and has been fighting through it.

Yep I saw Justin come down wrong and start hopping but played through till the time out.

Luckily Washington isn’t able to make a big run making it a back and forth contest.

We burned a lot of possessions that it shouldn’t have gotten to this point, but MAN did We got a bunch of awful calls against us in OT to just take any chance away.

when two starters are out, the second unit can get smoked. LeVert and Warren were on the bench though so maybe soon.

It's ok, still early in the season, and good to see Myles with a big game

It was absolutely great to see Myles go off offensively. Definitely shows he’s taken to heart that he can and should play the offense end of the court with a passion like he has for defensive play. I’m hopeful that he stays aggressive because when LeVert and Warren gets back it provides more options for the opponent to have to cover.

I’ve never seen Myles attack the rim like he was tonight and move in the paint. Many times have seen the long jumpers

Myles seems to be more eager to attack the rim from the perimeter this season

Is he actually an SF stuck in a C's body?

I'm impressed that Duarte as a rookie has the vision and IQ to make this pass when met by 3 Wizards defenders
