Just couldn't win. Not clear why Wall could not play when they will have at least two days off. Now they have a much tougher series. No second round this year.

Now Fultz took out Embiid This has got to make this the worst ever first season for a number 1 pick

Fultz had a triple double last night. Looks like he is not a total dud.

Doesn’t matter. Ernie has his big three locked up; wizards are going to dominate for years

Ernie is a fool should have been one of the possibilities

So do the Wizards win at least one game against Toronto?

That would always get 100%.

Yes. Not easy to get swept.

I suggest a change to the thread title.... DC Tanking.

Probably why they got Lawson a day or two ago.

I apologize if it states that in the story you posted. I tried to look at it but they want me to open an account.

I think you are right--apparently Sato was operating as the backup SG at practice. So Lawson or maybe Sessions at backup PG. Need someone who could score.

Going to forget the regular season happened. Expecting the good first round Wizards.

I'm glad I'm gettin' the local broadcast team. Looks like a little snow outside the arena. I was listenin' to the post Nats' game and the local guys were sayin' they had to close the Minneapolis airport because of snow. Must be a big storm across the Northern US and Southern Canada.

They have spurts but they don't seem able to sustain it and especially not at the end when it counts. Where have I heard that before?

spidernat · « **Reply #397:** April 14, 2018, 06:42:07 PM »

Their basketball IQ is still at the imbecile level.

mitlen · « **Reply #398:** April 14, 2018, 06:47:23 PM »

Wall had a nice half. He's makin' 'em better today.

mitlen · « **Reply #399:** April 14, 2018, 07:03:33 PM »

I love basketball (and I'm old) but the three point shot is makin' it a game with which I'm not familiar. I know it's about the money and the gameday experience but .... there was a sequence of 5 possessions before the time out and everybody took a three.
