This quarter can't end soon enough.
Edit: By quarter, I meant half. And likely game as well.
Ariza's really stepping it up tonight when the Wizards aren't playing as well as they have been lately.

Wittman is so incompetent....both Trevors are limping and he keeps them in the game.

We should finish this game with Okafor, Singleton, Webster/Ariza/Beal, and Wall
43 three point attempts for Rockets. 18-43. If they just defend the arc, they are up 20.
This is a great game.
Atrocious perimeter by the Wiz. And when did McHale go learn offense from Coach K? 45 threes?
The Wizards are horrendous when trying to eat clock. They stand around and run a play when there's so little time that they often have to jack up bad shots. And usually the plays they run is "Sit around with Wall for 18 seconds and have him try to force a foul on the drive". Wittman needs to step it up.
Offensively, Harden has some pre-injury Arenas in him.
Clutch win.
If only.....
Solid, solid win. Beal keeps improving and Oakriza were great.
Encouraging.
JC, guys, sixth win in a row against a team with a winning record and we still suck. :ols:
Glad I was able to get enough of the stream to work to catch the last minute and the Beal rebound. Was able to see them make it work, wasn't perfect, but we won, that's what matters.
Beal with the crucial play. He just makes the right plays at the right times. He's a lot smarter and more athletic than Harden, he's going to end up being a better player than him.
Houston is somehow a dumber team than we are. You guys ignored me, but I'm telling you, they're a low IQ team that runs a gimmicky college style offense where they live and die at the 3 pt line. And as such, they hang around .500. Harden is kind of a dumb player. Or if he's not and this is something new this year, then he's got a mandate from the Houston coaching staff to go out and play dumb basketball.
If they make the playoffs and get matched up with San Antonio in the first round, they will get pounded.
They need Dwight. They aren't going to win anything with just Harden. They need a steady hand, someone who can play defense and who can slow the pace down and make use of interior space having all those shooters on the floor provides and keep them from wasting so many possessions with bad shots and forced passes.
Great win tonight for the wiz kids, way to hang in there.
The thing that Beal lacks is his ability to beat a man with his dribble. Can't be a star without that skill because some much comes from this, including the ever important repeated trips to the free throw line. If he does that the Wizards will be Beal's team and we'll be talking about surrounding him with talent. Beal was big tonight.
Wall kept the turnovers down tonight and that's the difference in this game. The Wizards can hang with most teams and when that's the case the little things make the difference. If Wall had 6 turnovers like last night, the team loses today.
