Official GT - Wizards @ Heat - Wed 8:00PM (ESPN) 

Post#1 » by Illmatic12 » Wed Oct 21, 2015 5:27 pm

Time to start tuning things up for the regular season! Excited to watch our Wiz on national TV.

Both Washington and Miami will approach this game as all business, this is a Southeast Division matchup that will be one to watch throughout the season.

Stickied!

Second to the last pre-season game. We all need to get our in-game commentary skills sharpened. A national TV game against a division rival that ESPN fan boys think are better than us will be the perfect place to begin.

Let's Go Wizards!!!

Injuries for Wiz:
Webster- Out- Hip
Anderson- Out- Ankle
Nene- Likely Out - Calf
Blair- Likely Out- Knee
Dudley- Questionable- Back
Temple- Questionable- Hamstring

The Heat don't seem to have any significant injuries.

So, what's the plus minus on how many games Nene will miss to start the season this year?

I'm thinking 9 sounds like a good number.

Its a shame Nene and Webster won't play this one. Maybe would have had a look at a "dress rehearsal" game. Still, a good opportunity to see our starters against theirs. Protecting the defensive glass will be a challenge against team I imagine, especially with all that size. They don't really have much spacing with their starts though sans Dragic. Deng and Bosh can hit em but I don't consider them to be knock down shooters... well maybe Bosh can be that.

Apparently Beal is resting... Neal better camp his ass behind the 3 pt line. I assume we will start Neal since no Anderson or Webster.

Jeez. Beal not playing is really disappointing.

Thanks Witt.

Oyy these announcers are unbearable. Nutting all over the Heat - a worse team last year - while drumming all the improvements the Wizards need to make.

13-4 Wizards up playing without Beal.

Wow.

There are 35 people in the arena.

Neal hit a nice jumper -- but he spotted up inside the 3pt line. :-/

I know it's just preseason, but I'm loving this offense. Hopefully, no more LONG offensive droughts this season.
