GT #4: 76ers @ Bullets 7 PM (MonSportsNet/106.7 FM)

[FAH1223]

YOUR Washington Bullets are 1-2!

After a thrashing in the 2nd half against the Hornets in the home opener, they now face a 76ers team with the leading Rookie of the Year candidate!

We've seen improvements in Kyshawn George and Alex Sarr thus far this year. We have also seen rookie Tre Johnson come out as if he were a veteran with solid performances out of the gate.

On the other side, VJ Edgecomb has been SENSATIONAL. Tyrese Maxey dropped 40 last night in a win against the Magic.

The 76ers young talent is one story. Their veteran stars are another. Philadelphia has Joel Embiid in bubble wrap. The former league MVP is only playing the first or second leg of back to backs and he is on a minutes restriction. Paul George has yet to make his season debut.

So, will we see another upset?

Very nice game thread.

Why not rest Tre? Back pain. Oh, no.

[Kanyewest]

CJ with a bad foul- getting reminded of Jordan Poole's defense.

[Despy]

Id give credit to sarr but joel does not look like he gives a ****

also we need a gaurd who can gaurd badly

[Kanyewest]

Kispert gets more respect from the officials than Tre.

[Kanyewest]

Nice strip by George and oop by Whitmore who has gotten a couple of baskets from Philly turnovers.

Monumental broadcast is so amateurish they’ve had this annoying ass sound blaring every 30 seconds or no sounds like miles Davis blowing into his sax

[Tyrone Messby]

Just tuning in. Who is on VJ tonight? Shutting em down.

[spaceman_E]

Who is the home team? Joel just falls over and gets a whistle every time

[Kanyewest]

It should be a flagrant but the officials are stubborn.

[Kanyewest]

Just tuning in. Who is on VJ tonight? Shutting em down.

Bub - I guess although it just seems like the 76ers have been running the offense through Embiid, Oubre, and Maxey in this one.

[spaceman_E]

What a half by Sarr, I'd like to see that 50 more times. Bagley active and effective in his minutes too

[Despy]

Cant wait to see what kind of crazy ass rotations keefe comes up if we keep the lead. Sarr got 4 min left so it shouldnt be a huge problem

[SUPERBALLMAN]

I've honestly seen enough of Middleton and McCollum. It was nice having them here for training camp for our young players to practice against and pick their brains. But them playing for us does nothing to benefit us. At this point Middleton playing is just taking valuable minutes and playing experience away from Justin Champagnie and Jamir Watkins. Plus very soon we're going to need to work in Coulibaly as well. I have no emotional ties to Middleton. If he has a good game it is meaningless. All it means is one of these other guys that need to play didn't play. He could literally have the greatest game of his career and it would mean nothing to me. After seeing the reaction and love he got from the Milwaukee fans and how happy Giannis was to see him I honestly think they should just buy him out and let him go back to Milwaukee.

McCollum playing does nothing for us either. His shot chucking and no defense is a blast from Wizards past from the likes of Beal and Poole that we don't need. I'd rather see Will Riley and AJ Johnson on the floor leaning how to play against NBA competition. Buy him out let him go to Portland or Minnesota or the Lakers or somewhere else. Same with Kispert. We don't need to see these 3 we already know what they do and its not going to change.

Remove those 3 and insert CHAMPAGNIE, WATKINS, RILEY, BILAL, AJ JOHNSON. ASAP!!

Preach Superballman!!

And by the way, what a first half by Sarr offensively!!

[dobrojim]

Listening on the radio. Sarr lighting it up. Makes
me wonder about whether it'll be an any given night
thing for the WizKids as far as which kid will have a
big game. Sarr has got 20 in the 1st half.

Not being able to watch sucks though. Wondering if I
should just look for a cheap modest/smallish sized
tv that will work with MSN. I feel like I'm back in
my younger days when so many games weren't available.

[SUPERBALLMAN]

HALFTIME I'M FLIPPING OVER TO THE WORLD SERIES FOLKS! OHTANI PITCHING!!

[tontoz]

WOW a 20 piece for Sarr in the first half. We need Nate to stop making predictions or he might f up the tank.
