i am hoping (and seeing some indications) that the Wiz are going to try to find out what they have and give their young players some playing time. there are no illusions about being a playoff team this year. what we need is not a lot of rash action in terms of trade etc. but the development of the players we have that have displayed potential or have potential. Kwame, Jeffries, Dixon, E. Thomas etc. need to play. they have been denied opportunities to display what they can do for the long haul. some of these guys will likely be pretty good. we have to find out now. forget about playoffs and lets find out which of these youngsters are our future cornerstones. physical talent isn't everything but the wizards have a lot of it and it needs to be developed. in the NBA you've got to play and take your lumps to get good.
