GT #75: Bullets @ Pistons 7 PM (NBCSW/1500 AM)

[FAH1223]

YOUR WASHINGTON BULLETS ARE currently in the 6th spot!

They head to Detroit with the magic # at 1. The Cavs are still at #3 and the Sixers are right behind them. The Pacers beat a banged up GSW team.

The losses this past weekend destroyed the hopes of the 3 seed.

John Wall is QUESTIONABLE for the Detroit game. It's looking like he'll be back very soon.

This is the first look at the Pistons with Blake Griffin. They are 34-40 and will be out of contention in a matter of days. Can the Wiz help send them to the lottery?

They always lose when they go to the movies together

They jumped Wall after this because they all hate him.....lol

Wall is a game time decision. I'm always afraid of rust so I hate to see a guy come back this late but better late than never. I also hate the fact that he is probably coming off the bench. If a starter is ready to play then I would always like to start him and fight through the possible struggles instead of getting everyone used to a bench role and then everyone having to adjust again a few games later.

Besides, I could see Wall playing well on the bench and people actually thinking he should be our 6th man or worst of all losing and you know who they would say screwed up the chemistry

I’m not sure that was Dr. Pepper in Scott’s and Morris’ soda cup

[Chocolate City Jordanaire]

John Wall will only improve this team.

Detroit has won 4 of their last 5, but all wins were against garbage teams tanking for a pick (@SAC, @PHO, vCHI, vLAL). They did post a respectable overtime loss @ Houston.

So Wall is suiting up but not playing.

[gravytrain24]

How does that ref standing right at the baseline miss that push off.

[gravytrain24]

There's nothing about Stanley Johnson's game that i like.

[TheBabyMaker]

Beal has to be the worst Tech freethow shooter of alltime in any league.

[gravytrain24]

As good as the bench was Tuesday, they look terrible tonight.

[nate33]

Sessions has really played well tonight.

Indeed, he has been much better than I expected. I thought he was done as an NBA player. It turns out that he is still a serviceable backup PG.

We're shooting just 40% from the field and 20% from the line, yet we are still tied. We're doing alright. If somebody gets hot in the 2nd half, we should win this. It felt like nobody hit a shot in the last 8 minutes.

Kelly Oubre needs to calm down a bit. He is a little shot happy.

And if they lose, they at least are closer to the 7th seed.

Emblid''s injury is making me think that Cleveland may hold onto the 3rd seed.

[Error Afflalo]

no Otto nooooo

[gravytrain24]

Well now that Otto's hurt we may drop anyway.

[Tyrone Messby]

Oh John you’re ready to come back? Otto, now you get injured.
