Tonight's Lines
Wizards at Rockets: Rockets by 13
Over/Under on Total Scoring: 189
Welcome to the gauntlet: Boy, it sure was nice to play a team with a worse record than us on Saturday wasn't it? Well, don't get used to it, because this next stretch of games is absolutely brutal. In case you haven't been checking the schedule lately, here's a look at the Wizards next five games:
There's tough, and then there's playing 5 of the 9 best teams in the NBA in a nine day stretch with four of those games coming on the road.
Injury watch: We still don't know yet if Caron Butler will be available tonight after spraining his ankle on Thursday. Dave Johnson is reporting that Caron didn't practice yesterday but he could play tonight after missing Saturday's game. Hopefully you all have all your digits crossed, because I don't think I need to explain what happens to the team's chances if Caron goes out.
At least it won't be on national TV this time around: The last time these two teams faced off the Wizards came out with one of their best performances of the season and with nine minutes left in the game they had a nine point lead. Then in the final nine minutes the Wizards were outscored by 21 and lost by a dozen.
But hey, that looks pretty mild compared to some of the collapses we saw yesterday, am I right?
The trade winds are a-blowin': There are some rumors going around about a possible trade between Houston, Milwaukee, and the Lakers. I don't have any thoughts on the trade itself, but I bring it up because if it were to go down before the game tonight, it would leave Houston shorthanded tonight, which plays into our favor. I wouldn't bank on it happening, but it's something to keep an eye on.
This is an open thread, so don't be afraid to celebrate when we make a shot.
GO WIZARDS!
[UPDATE] Caron is out for this one and the Rockets are getting McGrady back tonight. That's a bad trade-off.

None of the above
I’m partial to Mark Madsen dancing.
It’s nice being resigned to losses for these next five games so that I don’t get my hopes up. Of course, knowing the Wiz, they’ll keep it close into the fourth quarter in at least one of those games only to collapse late. D.C., baby!

Someone get Ed Tapscott on the training staff!
We could’ve used this kind of thinking last year:
Ed Tapscott on Butler about an hour before the game: “He said he wants to go but I advised him: ’don’t be a hero.’ I don’t want him to turn a two or three game thing into a 10-game thing. So, if it’s good, fine. If not, get it healthy.”

Why lean/fade on every freaking jumper? He needs to clean up his fundamentals. It’s unfortunate, because he has great release, rotation, and arc – it’s the body control that is lacking.

I dont think its that bad
when he is shooting off the dribble – because it helps him gain space. But there is no need to do it for a set shot or jumper off of a pass. Straight up and release. Do it.

What I’m saying is he’s shot too many shots off the dribble over his career, thereby developing bad habits. Those take a while to fix.

I'm not saying Nick needs to keep jacking or anything
I’m just saying you make life difficult for him when you place him with a bunch of low-usage guys. That’s always been the issue. If you want him to develop better shot habits, place him with high-usage guys. That way, you can legitimately say to him, “Listen, stop shooting. These guys who are more efficient than you need more shots. Pick your spots better and you’ll get better shots playing off them.”

Why'd you even bother coming up court Darius?
Mike wasn’t going to pass that up.

That's a shooting foul?
Seriously?
Reminds me of that play Arenas made on Kirk Hinrich in 2007.
You know you'll get devoured by Cheaney, Wallace, and Juwan Howard.

Booth
He was making out with the cheerleaders when all of that happened. It was an awkward moment when the team had to bring him back to the bench.

McGee
McGee’s avg’d 7.3 mpg over the last 7 games. Does anyone understand Tapscott’s “breaking up the season into segments” thing? I’m trying to figure out when one segment ends and the next begins, oh well.
