We're going to lose if we don't start making Lawson miss. It's past time to put Wall in to guard him.

Time for Wall to guard Lawson's hot ass

That came out wrong

On the bright side, Beal and Lawson are on my fantasy team.

Wall is not having a brilliant game. I think that was his 5th turnover. He's getting assists though.

Edit: and number 6

[stevemcqueen1]

Death, Taxes, and Wall getting 8 assists.

Man, has Beal come into his own or what?

Looking at stat line on this game, looks like turnovers and free throw shooting are killing us today. Assists are also down, but hearing about Nene's knee tendinitis makes me feel we need to focus that draft pick on someone that can play the 5 or be the big guy on the floor when we play small. Seriously, I love the guy, but he's never going to be healthy enough for us to truly rely on him to be anchor going forward. I totally believe that's why Denver traded him (though it sure does feel good knowing Mcgee is coming off the bench for Denver now).

I like the Shabazz idea, but what about this guy Zeller? I se he can play PF/C and is expected to be a lottery pick.

Wall's sitting at 10 assists, but also 6 turnovers.

Not making the best decisions with the rock tonight.

Too many turnovers but he's been piling up assists and passes leading to FTs. Having a nice game defensively too.

I want to see him finish those drives. He gave up an assist on a drive he should have taken the shot. He had the room.

Think of what Beal will be like as his handles improve and he gets to the line more. He's already driving more than he did at the start of the year. I wonder how much longer this will be "Wall's team".

Zeller will be good not great. He's got short arms and isn't very strong but he has a lot of offensive variety around the basket.

Love the 2 Wizards fans behind Phil and Steve. Haha

[stevemcqueen1]

Ariza really having a nice game. Found his range from 3, made some tough jumpers in traffic, and he's been making big plays on D.

I really don't know what to make of him yet.

Agreed on the finish and I saw the play you are talking about. I don't think he has his legs back, he'd normally attempt a shot there. There is no question the team is better with him.

It's always going to be Wall's team so long as he is here. He is the PG and the leader and he's also the biggest athletic talent.

But Beal could very well end up being the best player. He's so remarkably clean. I can't believe how smart he is.

[Fight4RGIII]

That box out to hook shot was the greatest defense to offense series I've ever seen from Seraphin.

**** these refs

[stevemcqueen1]

Also I'm not sure what to make of Zeller's ceiling. Conventional wisdom says it'll only be so high but having watched him play a fair amount now, he's got a star quality to him that's hard to describe.

Nice J from Wall. Those dribble pull ups are so tantalizing. They show what could be.

WTH is with these no calls?

Jordan needs to stop trying to split those doubles. I can't remember the last time it ended well.
