Game Thread: Wizards vs Warriors [12/8/2012 - 7:00P ET]

If only we could say the same about someone else's first unit.

[hands11]

Six line ups. One quarter. Down 7. That a boy Randy.

[hands11]

There's no doubt in my mind that our 2nd unit would easily defeat our first unit.

1st unit: Price, Beal, Webster, Singleton, Okafor.
2nd unit: Livingston, Crawford, Martin, Seraphin, Nene

Seriously, our second unit is better at every single position except SF. It doesn't make any sense at all.

No. It doesn't. And that is what is driving me nuts. WTF is Randy thinking.

By the time he gets a start quality line up in, the other team has all the momentum and we are down 10. That means the better player have to first stop the momentum. Then gain it. Then at some point we make a come back and then we get crushed to close the game.

Terrible coaching. I literally would give him an F as a game time coach. He may he good in practice and in other ways, but game time, terrible.

Start your best starters already. Put a line up out there were you know who your #1 and #2 scorers are.

[closg00]

Charles Jenkins is a other PG would could have taken instead of Mack. Jenkins is still in the league....he was picked in the 40's.

[TheBigThree]

Besides Price at least the starting unit can play defense. Beal is worlds better than anyone else in the back court at man defense.

I think we all know Nene is a starter when he gets to 100%. The rest, IMO, make sense coming off the bench unless the other team is monsterous, in which case you put Okafor/Seraphin in place of Seraphin with Nene.

[hands11]

Crawford
Beal
Martin
Singleton
Kevin

Not bad. Its young. I would have Webster in for Martin but this line up stands a chance. Needs more rebounding. But as long as Martin plays well, you can use him in a line up like that.

I agree Seraphin should be starting ahead of Singleton (even if we continue to insist Singleton is a 4 only and Webster is a 3 only for some reason) . . . for Hands's reason. It gives the offense a focal point. We have 3 guys that look for their shot aggressively: Nene, Seraphin, and Crawford, one of them should be out there with any unit.

Now someone get word to Randy. Seriously. How does he not realize this ?

[hands11]

Good aggressive group out there now.

Crawford leading them.

Crawford
Beal
Martin
Singleton
Kevin

This is a group Beal can scrap with. I wouldn't start that line up but it is a middle of the game scrappy group.

Its like Randy doesn't understand momentum. Isn't it coaching one oh one to start strong. End the half strong. Start the 3rd strong and finish the game strong.

His line ups get them off to a bad start for the game and the 3rd quarter. That is just to much to overcome.

At least give the roster a chance to win. I mean come on.

[TheBigThree]

Again I feel like Beal is having a fairly decent game. Since they put him on Curry he's been silent. He's contributing on D and had some nice assists on the PNR, but he HAS to start hitting those open jumpers.

[DANNYLANDOVER]

My goodness, I really think I can shoot better than Bradley Beal. Forget this he needs time, his shots barely touch the rim and he's airballed 2 wide open 3 pointers. He looks like he's aiming his shot out there.

[Knighthonor]

Who winning?

[closg00]

Take Craw out, he's feeling the need to play hero-ball tonight.

[TheBigThree]

Total BS foul on Webster there stops our momentum.

Oh good, foul to give.

[hands11]

Take Craw out, he's feeling the need to play hero-ball tonight.

Are you kidding me. He is one of the main reasons they are in the game. He is playing PG.

[TheBigThree]

Great work by Cartier that quarter. Nice D at the end there by Beal.

Perfectly winnable game.

[closg00]

Six line ups. One quarter. Down 7. That a boy Randy.

Didn't you start the Appreciation thread for Randy?

[closg00]

Take Craw out, he's feeling the need to play hero-ball tonight.

Are you kidding me. He is one of the main reasons they are in the game. He is playing PG.

When he plays hero-ball, jacking shots early and not passing-enough, he needs to sit.

[hands11]

Ok, so the team over came Randys crappy starting line up. Again.

Only down 3.

At least he won't be able to start that group again because Price is hurt.

So who would you start for the 2nd half.

I would go with maybe.

Crawford
Beal for D on Curry
Webster
Singleton
Nene

Then bring in Kevin at the 5 min mark. Then Martin for Webster.
If not starting Nene, then start Kevin. Place don't start Singleton and Okafor again.

I would say Livingston with Crawford but not sure Crawford can cover Curry like Beal can.

Anyone got anything better ?

[MikeTheKid]

What's the score? I'm at the bar watching the Ufc fights
