The Wizards are a terrible team, no excuse to drop this game. Maybe another opportunity to rest starters late?

Should be easy. Only thing worth watching is Wall vs Westbrook. Westbrook won the "pg battle" against Rondo, he should win this one too.

Out of town, so I won't get to watch it.

Hopefully it's an uneventful game between the team with the best record and the team with the worst.

They think that this Singleton guy will contain Durant. I don't know who that is, but I guess we'll find out tonight.

we're just a big fan because we're not use to many guys who try hard non stop and play with substance. I think he's the 2 time ACC DPOY and trust me, I havent seen consistent D like his in a long time. I mean great D in every area. Man up, passing lanes, steals, straight up D. He's got some of the best defensive hands Ive ever seen. One problem he does have though is leaving his feet. KD is great with the pump fakes so he could get him out the game quick with fouls. Our 1st round pick in Veseley has played very well also and has the size to matchup with KD so Im just excited to see them play against the best.

I will say this, we are a better team now then our record. Before we were worst then our record but you can tell that everyone is slowly starting to find there roles and were slowly starting to get healthy. Weve only been healthy 1 game all year minus Turiaf and that was the only win we have. Tonight will be our 2nd game that we have everyone minus Turiaf so I wanna see how we play

No discipline, Russ being a ball hog, Ibaka being invisible, the whole team sucks all night long. pathetic.

We need to rebound the ball a lot better, rebounding is also what hurt us in the Celtic game

Give me a break. The only reason they didn't blow us out is Westbrook played very well. Durant was **** all game 7 turnovers? GTFO.

The Wizards played well. The outrebounded the hell out of us. Congrats to them.

the sad thing is we rebounded the ball better with Jeff Green and Nenad Freakin Krstic as our big men.

wtf................

Well, everyone except Russ should probably re-evaluate what they're trying to do on the basketball court after that game.

Didn't see it, but it's hard not to be surprised.

Wiz fan here, coming to thank KD. I think he just felt bad for his home team and John Wall, so he decided to give us this game. We'll take the charity.

OKC is my 2nd fav team!
