Westbrook to the Wizards for Wall and a protected first-round pick.

Seems like an overpay for Washington.

Why would you say that? Westbrook has been an MVP. Wall is coming back from a major Achilles injury and has had major knee issues also. When he does not have the ball he doesn’t move at all. Westbrook is a ball hog but at least a productive one. He’s also a guy who always plays a full season.

At least we know that Wall will now become a hall of famer

I guess if the first round pick is protected then it's OK. Wall is at least a couple of years younger. Both contracts are horrible.

It will be interesting to see how he meshes with Beal.

At least the team will be interesting to watch

No reason to watch tomorrow.

Been watching some. Rookie looks good. At least on offense. Mensch from the bench.

Beal will play tonight. Westbrook and Bertans still resting.

Just check with ESPN.

Lebotard is leaving on the 4th...that was his only sports content, although most of his LeBron talk had little to do with sports.

I don't know who will pick up the slack. Maybe Steven A. and Kellerman can cram a few additional LeBron segments into their daily diatribe...

They could hire the Sports Junkies. They have years of practice in a local market not discussing sports. They could have features on Lebron and poker.

Suppose they could take Grant Paulsen with them?

There you go. Get the Disney execs on the phone.

Seems a fair number of people don't like Grant, but I like listening to him and at least he knows and likes to talk baseball. But he and Danny don't do so as frequently as I'd like.

ESPN already turned down The Junkies

Oh Rui. Don’t rub your eyes. This seems like a severe and very contagious version of pink eye. Probably just a matter of time until more Wizards catch it.

Still not playing defense but offense looks good.

It was the best of times; it was the worst of times. Up 8; down 13. And up one.

In the pre game they said he wants to be called the Wizraeli. I like Deni Dimes.

Last couple of minutes have been ugly. No defense, forced passes, and turnovers.

Bryant is horrible.

Tough loss. Next four games are winnable.

They will get better. Just need to gel.
