GT #41: Bullets @ Nets 7 PM (NBATV/NBCSW/1500 AM) [3/21/21]

[FAH1223]

YOUR Washington Bullets are now 15-25 after beating the best team in the NBA.

What the hell is going on?!

Anyway, the next game is in Brooklyn. Bullets are 2-0 against the Nets. But I wager that this will turn into 2-1 very quickly. I'm sensing a blowout of epic proportions.

The prospective Eastern Conference Champions are rolling. Kevin Durant is taking his time with his hamstring injury. Kyrie and Harden are dominating games. There's no defending them.

With over half the season gone, the Ls gotta rack up. And with this game and the tough Knicks next, we got opportunities!

ANOTHER TANK LOSS

Without KD, we actually match up pretty well with them.

I’m expecting a close, WTF loss.

I think it's the other way around. We matched up pretty well when it was Kyrie and Durant because Westbrook does okay on Kyrie and Hachimura contains Durant.

But we have no answer for Harden. Beal isn't long enough to challenge his step-back, and Avdija and Hachimura aren't quick enough to stay in front of him. Bonga might be useful for a little bit, but he'll foul out in 18 minutes. Our inclination to switch on pick-and-roll defense is going to result in DeAndre Jordan getting a ton of dunks.

The only way we win is like how we won the last two games: outdueling them in a shootout. We're going to need Beal and Westbrook to combine for about 80, and we'll still need a good game from others, which might be hard if Bertans is out. We'll probably need 140 points. We will need 15-20 out of Hachimura and someone like Mathews, Neto or Avdija is going to need a great game and pour in 20.

Brooklyn started the season out 14-12 thru 2/10/21.
Since then they have gone 14-1.

They’ve won 6 in a row, and are now 28-13.

So, of course the Wizards will probably win again.

[WallToWall]

Wizards have no business sniffing a chance for a win in this game. That means, they will win. Because, that is how this season rolls.

If I lived in Vegas I would risk a fair wager on the Wizards to cover if not outright win.

Thanks for the reminder, I placed a little wager.

Wizards win, Beal +30 points, Westbrook +10 assists, if I come out ahead I'll spread the wealth

I just hope it was “house money” and NOT the rent money.

[Frichuela]

Wow...what a start. Smoking hot!!

[Chocolate City Jordanaire]

Discretionary money? Yeah, place a wager every once in a while!

[Frichuela]

This version of Russ and Rui makes us a different team

[Chocolate City Jordanaire]

We might lose but one thing the Wizards knew ahead of time is we are going to score a lot of points against these dudes.

I’m actually watching NBA TV over March madness!

[Chocolate City Jordanaire]

Blake Griffin...

Uh oh

[Frichuela]

Beal forcing the issue and playing like shite. Move the fricking ball man!

[Chocolate City Jordanaire]

That was a charge but I am glad Bradley Beal damn near killed Blake Griffin

[Chocolate City Jordanaire]

Claxton is nasty...Not necessarily a bad thing

[nate33]

Forgot about this game. Just tuning in now. How in the heck did we hold Brooklyn to just 25 1st quarter points?
