Wittman's playing time with Wall infuriates me

This should be Wall's playing time for the games.

First 10 minutes of the 1st quarter, than bench for a breather. Plays the last 9 minutes of the 2nd quarter. First 5 and last 3-4 minutes of the 3rd quarter. Last 8-9 minutes of the 4th quarter. I want him to have 3 or so minutes at the begging of the 4th to get his energy back and use his speed against tired defenders at the end of games.

Price would be getting 12-14 minutes per game like this Wall would be getting 35-37

Makes sense to me.

I think that dude is going to be good once he hits his prime. Something like 19 & 11 averages, good inside--outside scoring, good defense, interchangeable at the 4 & 5. I think he's going to be one of the four or five best big men in the league when he is 25.

It's a risk no doubt. But we're going to have to take a big risk to get a really good big man. Favors is probably less of a risk than Cousins all told. Though I would definitely go for Cousins too if he were available.

I don't think he's a max player but I would like to see the Wizards get creative because I don't think any player on this team can be the best player on a championship team. Certainly not in the offense they are running now. The wizards are built to get to the playoffs and then get bounced out. Too much money invested in Nene and Okafor (27 million) and too much of the future riding on Wall. They need a leader with vision to do something because I see a team headed for a ugly playoff loss next season and then a lot of question marks after that.

What I actually think will happen is nothing. The biggest splash they make will likely be trying to resign Webster. 2014 is a cliff and EG is going to try to save his job with a first round playoff loss.

In Brooklyn.

As this article notes, film doesn't lie and the team has a lot to clean up from the last game to be successful this evening. When Beal, Wall and Nene all play together, I believe our record is 12-6. Sadly, we haven't been able to keep a core healthy team together for extended periods of time. We must fight through excuses and focus as a unit to keep up our recent spate of productive play. We are playing 500 ball in the last 10 games.

Lots of pixels from around the web. Check them out here.

We're 12-6 in the owner's eyes, outside of hoping for good health, there's nothing to change.


Love the part of him saying "we must fight through excuses", the owner is the one making the damn excuses.

.500 ball over the past 10 games....CELEBRATE.

What a joke.

[DCchillin89]

The fact that this team cannot function whenever one key player is out of the lineup is an indictment on Ernie.

[Fight4RGIII]

John is putting the passes there so far tonight. Just can't convert.

[StillUnknown]

Going to be tough night if Deron's shot is falling.

Deron Williams is in a Kobe-esque zone right now.

[MonkFan8]

Are you kidding me? Nice defense.

[Skin'emAlive]

Well, that's the fastest I've seen a game end.

[SJValleySkinz]

Anyone remember a more bizzare start to a game than this?

[Fight4RGIII]

Great Oden's Raven! Deron is on FIRE

[StillUnknown]

Deron going for records, might be the only reason to keep watching.

[Destino]

Deron Williams has twice as many points as the wizards. Chasing shooters off is apparently not something we want to try.

[Skin'emAlive]

Boooooo. That is all
