The Official Washington Wizards Thread

Wall looks pretty good defensively so far. I was expecting that part to take awhile.

Wall is getting to the basket fine, not finishing well though.

Phil Ves didn't handle that oop because Wall put it right under the rim. Wall's rusty placing those alley-oops.

Well the plus side of Wall gaining a ton of weight and getting fatter is he looks really damn strong. He's still fast as hell and springy.

I cant stand Vesely. I would MUCH rather have Singleton get his minutes.

Vesely!!! 5 fouls, 0 points, 4 minutes. I cant stand this guy

Jan Vesely: 5 fouls in 4 minutes & 38 seconds of gametime.

That's always been an issue with Wall. Long thought that would be the thing that keeps him from superstar status. See Derrick Rose and how he finishes around the rim.

Anyway I'm listening on the radio but a couple of things that Dave and Glenn are staying on is the refs suck and that Wall seems to be better at mixing up his speeds and not going to the max every single time. Still an issue though

They also love that Jan has 5 fouls in 4 minutes. Glen says he thinks hes trying out for a Jackie Chan movie.

Bad foul call on Ves. It was actually a pretty amazing block. He's been a fouling machine though. Hard fouls too, playing with a chip and throwing his weight around. Kind of shocking. He looks weak as hell but he hits pretty hard and actually pushes people around.

Two of those foul calls were bad. One of them was a clean block and was actually an excellent rotation and contest by Ves.

He'd have also had two nice oops if not for bad passes from Wall.

Singleton had plenty of opportunities to get all of Ves's minutes and then some. It does not speak well at all for him that he's been frozen out on such an awful team with wide open minutes.

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

Also Zaza Pachulia has his own zip code now. I can't see, has he gotten that big?

[stevemcqueen1]

I don't agree with that foul call on Nene. If you're going to call that, you need to call all of the holds ATL has been committing.

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

Consor says AJ Price had had a "spectacular game". Questioning Whitman for pulling him. Also, talking about this is the difference though. Depth.

No. Vesely is playing because he is a higher draft pick. He has not played more than 1 good game the entire season. Vesely is garbage.

Also, his fouling is obvious because he needs to try too hard to push people around. Its obvious to the refs every time he fouls.

[stevemcqueen1]

Josh Smith and Nene are getting chippy. Josh Smith seems like he's losing his composure a bit. Just some bad fouls.

Are you even watching the game?

Price has been terrific. Best overall performance by a Wizard tonight IMO. But it makes sense to put Wall in. He can score against a set defense like he did just a minute ago. And it's not like you're going from Price to a worse player in Wall/

[StillUnknown]

Much better finishes late by Wall.

[Skin'emAlive]

Yes im watching the game. Have you watched Ves play all year? He is the same as he has been all season. Id take Singleton all day over him. Hell, id take Baron.

---------- Post added January-12th-2013 at 09:18 PM ----------

And yes, i would resign baron to play over ves.

[StillUnknown]

Wall speed hasn't been affected at all. He's finishing his opportunities at the rim in this quarter.

Feels good to see the team actually play well down the stretch to close it out.

Great to Wall out there driving the lane.
