The Official Washington Wizards Thread

[grhqofb5]

Why would we ship off Nene to add a player we don't need and that will surely look to get out of the city at his earliest convenience? You realize we have Wall right? And Yao can't stay healthy and so he retired, so I really doubt he would come out of retirement to play for the Wizards.

It was a joke dude....

Barnes is the most NBA ready shooter in this draft i think. He could have scored more if UNC was less talented

He could have scored more if he took the ball to the rim more and didn't just settle for his jump shot all the time.

I was about to say that's one of the most off the wall proposals we've heard yet. LOL!

[No Excuses]

Part me of is just hoping to hear a trade for James Harden. I know it's probably not going to happen, but my opinion about the direction of this team will change completely.

My bad, in my defense sarcasm doesn't travel well through text. And I have definitely heard crazier more serious proposals on ES before.

[G.A.C.O.L.B.]

Just had a awesome convo with Phil. Great ****ing dude. Looking for Buck now.

Oh and Awvee Storey agrees with me that Barnes should be the pick.

It's almost time. I wish we could get a poll to see who would be the ES Wizards thread pick.

Just as a refresher to get pumped for the draft:

















Those videos are a must watch. I can't watch the MKG video where he steals the inbound pass and throws down that monstrous dunk without getting giddy. Ditto for watching Beal run through those screens and hound the perimeter, and for watching Barnes create all those jumpers and shots in transition.

Also, for **** and giggles, new Anthony Davis video too. Check out the blocks montage. Good God.

Always liked Phil. We're lucky to have him. Keep sending us updates, they're fascinating to a nerd like me.

That makes two of you that are wrong.

Get some pics.

I think I want to stay away from this thread 30 min leading up to our pick. I have a feeling some twitter tweet thing will be shown, telling us our pick. I'd rather be surprised, or at least told by Andy Katz a min before the pick. Maybe I should just have it on mute or flip to it right when we pick.

No way to know who the pick is since we won't know what Charlotte will do with Cleveland's offer on the table. I think you are safe being here.

In that Drummond video "weaknesses" segment where the guy is just taking all kinds of bad shots around the rim, no credit seems to be given to the fact he's utterly mauling all of those dudes when he backs them down. He gave one guy a bump that sent him off court. The kid is an absolute freak. How can he not go second overall?

[Hersh]

Awesome debates we've had here for the last few weeks. I'm praying to the basketball Gods that the Wiz don't mess this up.

[MLSKINS]

MKG, Barnes, or Beal I don't even care. I just want however comes to perform like the third pick.

[No Excuses]

Craig Sager and his suits. Burn his entire wardrobe please.

[Warhead36]

Does the draft start at 7:30 or 8?
