They interviewed Mahinmi during the Miami game. I thought was ready to go.

Ready to go to the bank and collect that check--of course they have direct deposit now.

Well, that's no way to tank.

Up early in Orlando. Orlando looks really bad. And so does the Wizards bench.

Don't bother.

Mahinmi going to play tonight. That should help the D. I would like to see them start Oubre for defense and let Otto play with the bench and see what he can do to give them some bench scoring.

Glad I missed that choke job. Actually glad I have not seen too many games this year. Wake me up when Ernie is fired.

I think a whole family of German shepherds.

As an old basketball and Bullets fan, I really enjoy the Buck/Phil conversations through out a game.

Leonsis is killing the Wizards. Everybody in this town ranted about Abe Pollin. Be careful what you wish for. And we thought Wes Unseld was bad. Ted inherited Ernie but that doesn't preclude him from firing the bum.

They were dead when Ernie took over. He had a couple of moments where it looked like he would bring them to life. But failed. Time to move on. I am afraid if he stays on throughout the year he will make a trade and get them to sneak into the playoffs. Or at minimum put them away from a top draft pick. It was a mistake to extend him and then have him hire a new coach. If you hire a new GM now he may not fit with the coach. What a mess.

Ernie had a chance at almost the entirety of last year's warriors team. Ernie can't draft- they could have been an expansion team when Ernie took over and be good under a decent gm

The Vesley pick is what killed him ultimately. He is probably working on a trade as we speak to give up their number one pick this year. They need to tank the rest of the season and get someone for the front court.

PTI just mentioned in the last 30 years, the Wiz/Bullets have been over .500 at the 20 game mark twice.

It's another throw back night at the Verizon Center. It's the 70s and the Wiz have throw back unis on. During play, the PA is playing 70s music. It's better than the Wiz.

Big E is in the house.
