The Wizards are reportedly close to a 3-team deal that will send Nick Young to the Clippers, JaVale McGee and Ronny Turiaf to Denver and will receive Nene Hilario from the Nuggets, Brian Cook from the Clippers, and a 2nd round pick. Cleaning house is exactly what this awful team needs to do. Nene is a [...]
The first half for the Wizards last night against the Clippers was strong and gave an impression of hope. JaVale McGee was playing awesome. He was 6-7 from the field with 13 points including a couple of highlight-worthy dunks. His toughness going after rebounds was the real story, though. He was actually playing like he really [...]
The Wizards had, in my opinion, their best game all year. The Thunder are still the best team they’ve beaten this year, but they shot for 38% in that game. The Trail Blazers are very good at home, going 11-3 before last nights 124-109 loss. Their leading scorer LaMarcus Aldridge did go out with an [...]
Here is a clip from the Wizards’ 107-93 loss yesterday to the Knicks. Jeremy Lin crosses John Wall up and is left a clear lane for the dunk. The Microsoft paperclip gives better help than this…
Despite being up 18 at one point against the awful Toronto Raptors, Washington allowed them to creep back into the game and take it into OT. OT was uneventful, as only 9 points were scored in total. Luckily 6 of them were by the Wiz to capture their 5th win of the year with a [...]
One of the few (if not only) categories we’re in the top 10 in is offensive rebounds per game. I guess JaVale is still skeptical of his team’s offensive board crashing skills..
Wow.. That’s 5 words that start with ‘w’ in a row. The key to the Wixard’s success against the Bobcats was, besides playing one of the worst teams I’ve ever seen in professional sports, shooting consistency. Finished the game with a 47% field goal percentage, up from their 2nd worst in the league 41.4% percentage. [...]
The inevitable has happened. Flip has been fired after his 2-15 start with the Wizards this year. My one question is, everyone knew this was coming, why did Leonsis take so long to do it? I posted here over 2 weeks ago wondering how much longer he would last. Many thought Flip would last longer [...]
Well, the Wizards finally got their first win tonight beating the Raptors 93-78. I’m overwhelmed with encouragement (insert sarcasm hashtag). Even with the win, there was nothing particularly exciting other than maybe their defense. Rookie Jan Vesely had 5 steals, the team combined for 8 blocks, and they only allowed the Raptors to score 78 [...]
The Wizards are now 0-8 and, in there most recent game, lost to the Timberwolves, who went into the game at 2-5, by 21.. Reports have now surfaced that Rashard Lewis refused to play in the game. Lewis is the 2nd highest paid player in the game, behind only Kobe Bryant, and is averaging 8.7 [...]
