The tank has been moving but the lottery odds haven't. All teams ahead of the Bullets in the loss column keep losing.
As the Bullets are about 3 games behind in the Play-IN race with 15 left to play, they'd literally need to semi-run the table to catch the Hornets and ATL Hawks. Not likely.
Wes Unseld Jr's coaching is getting the attention of Wizards twitter prompting Chris Miller on NBC Sports Washington to defend the Bullets HC on air from the angry mob asking LEGIT questions about the rotation and lack of execution.
WUJ's former club is in town with the reigning NBA MVP coming off a big win against the 76ers in a matchup that pitted the two leading MVP candidates for this season against each other. Bones Hyland was HUGE for Denver hitting clutch 3s in the 2nd half and yes, Bones could have been drafted by your Bullets with the Lakers 1st rounder that Tommy Sheppard acquired in the Westbrook trade which instead was used to trade for Aaron Holiday and a trade down to acquire Isaiah Todd at pick 31. A disaster trade when we all knew the Bullets needed to take a flyer on one of these young guards.
Anyway, Denver led by MVP Jokic should win this by about 15.
