Let's see if Chicago can keep getting offensive rebounds and run out the clock from the 3 minute mark.


Can John Wall get 6 offensive fouls?

John Lucas III. That is all.

[NotSoSuper]

This team is a joke. Crawford is a ****ing idiot, terrible shot selection.

[No Excuses]

John Lucas out played John Wall.

Once again, Chris Singleton and Javale McGee are the only players giving consistent effort throughout the game.

Phil doesn't like Brian Scalabrine lol.

If he was shooting a decent percentage then I'd say it's amazing but he's a huge reason for the poor shooting night end and night out.

Wall has to take advantage of matchups like this, he shouldn't be getting outplayed by the opposing teams backup guard.

Not even the primary backup. John Lucas is third on the depth chart. CJ Watson was out this game.

I wish I had not known that.

I only watched the 4th quarter but the Wiz were complete garbage. A complete joke of a team. EG needs to be fired.

The first 3 quarters they actually played pretty good defense. Held Chicago to 37% shooting, we didn't do a good enough job on the glass though. Lots of 2nd opportunities for the Bulls.

The 4th quarter was a complete collapse.

I think Wall needs a structured system from a vet coach preferably Jerry Sloan or even JVG. They will teach him to play with poise and learn to be patient running the pick&roll. Right now in my opinion he has regressed. I don't care if he averages 8 ast if he turns it over 4-5 times every game and the TO's are a trend even at Kentucky, thats worrisome. Tonight he played tough defense at the end on Korver and he can be a elite defender but he is lazy on defense normally throughout the game. This team as a whole just don't play hard.

If we get the # 1 pick and pair up JAVale with Davis that would be a physically imposing defensive front line they would have a block party but this team needs shooting in the worst way.

If Wall could get a jumpshot he'd be incredible.

[Destino]

I didn't watch the game but I noticed our favorite scape goat didn't play. I'm assuming based on the college scoring production that we could have used him off the bench.

[No Excuses]

Blatche is terrubul, but he still has NBA level ability. Tonight he was replaced by Seraphin, who doesn't belong on an NBA roster and should be playing in the D-league.

I actually think it might be a good idea to use Blatche as a backup PF/C. You can showcase him as a decent reserve big man with position versitality, which is actually a position of need in the NBA. He has no trade value as a starter, but as a back up, his perception around the league might change.

Id argue that if he could get a jumpshot, he would be a normal point guard. I have hope out for him, but he needs to learn how to control the offense instead of blindly running to the basket, quit taking terrible layup attempts, and improve his FT% before i look for improvement in his jumpshot. I believe McGee is more of a key to this team than Wall. Dude is beasting out there. We have to lock him up.

He has the speed and agility. He just needs to learn to finish and get a jumpshot. He does need to work on FTs though.
