The heat really exposed our problems on offense. Wes should have a.clear idea of what we need to work on.

Sigh, regardless of this team's flaws, we needed that win. Did not want to lose three in a row, much less three in a row to divisional opponents and back-to-back against those arrogant Heaters. Charlotte's win string snapped tonight, let's tag that ass Monday too.

Inbounds and backup point guards are problems. Beal has to do too much so he gets drained in the fourth quarter. You can't let Neto or Holiday handle it too much since they are walking turnovers right now. That backup PG position needs to be addressed because our depth is going to super strong up front when Rui and Bryant return in 2021 or 2022.

Let's just start with unforced turnovers, bunnies, and inbounding the ball.

Any team that has a surplus of guards and needs a center would make a great trading partner. Milwaukee comes to mind

I guess, Can't do anything until Bryant is back. Who knows when that will be, but I'm sure Tommy is thinking about that. Or you can do the opposite and that's if Bryant is really back you trade Trez. Ted would never do that, but you see he's incredible off the bench, but he's always been a liability in the playoffs with his D and lack of size.

Did Justin Kutcher really say that Kuzma should intentionally miss a FT up 3 with 0.6 seconds left? One of the dumbest things I've heard an announcer say.

What were the fans like? Seems liked the Heat fans took over until about 5 minutes left.

Scared to death....a lot of Wade and bron heat jerseys but we were in there acting civilized.

You know how DC is. A lot of the locals ain’t paying for the seats but there were a couple of us holding it down - high fives (not COVID safe) all over these fans when we started to roll. The wiz players were acknowledging the fans a lot too. Kuz and Trez we’re definitely getting people engaged

Would love to see Tommy work on getting more reasonable priced tickets further down in the bowl for people with DC IDs so kids get to see a legit team.

I live out in ffx so Maybe I don’t get better prices but If you want to get the wiz to improve home town, you gotta get people from DC in the good seats

Maybe Wes should go get a offensive expert to help him...I can’t tell what principles they running on offense.

Hate him, but I see his point. They had no timeouts left, but sure, make the damn FT and it's over.

Can't believe we won, tbh. So many basic issues. That Holiday double dribble almost had me put a brick thru my TV. Horrible.

The repeated problems inbounding the ball. Shouldn't be that hard.

Those problems, as infuriating as they are, are fixable at least.

Also not sure how we won with the refs calling the game the way they did. Heat got almost every important call go their way.

Neither here nor there, but Kyle Lowry looks like a middle-aged guy who used to be an athlete but let himself go. Love that guy.
Can't say I do. Who else gonna shoot?

Turnovers -- you nailed it. We had a great night on offense if what you mean is getting good shots & making them at a high rate along with getting to the line & making FTs as well.

We posted a TS% tonight of .612 -- that is absolutely great. The only reason the game was close was that Miami got to take 7 more shots than we took -- b/c of turnovers.

On the season, we are a bit better than average in turnovers. The last two games, however... yikes.
