I like looking at McGee "under the microscope" a second time….
See if he learns anything.

I think you can skip Dee Brown.. and Skip McGuire = but if Pecherov plays, perhaps in game 4, you could do him instead. After all, he’s the one returning Wizard that the fans know very little about.

So – Here’s my vote:

Game 1 – McGee on Defense
Game 2 – Nick Young on Defense
Game 3 – Nick Young on Offense (with emphasis on “within” the Offense)
Game 4 – Pecherov
Game 5 – McGee on Defense

Let’s face it – as Wizards fans, we’re pretty sure what we’re getting from Blatche on Offense and Defense. There’s no reason to look at Veremeenko, since he has Zero chance of making the team this year.

Looking at McGee a second time makes a ton of sense – considering that he’s the Wizards 1st round pick this year…. Let’s see if he learns anything in a week. That will tell us how “coachable” he is.

And we need some real insight into Pecherov. He’s been a Wizard since last year, but because of injuries, no one knows anything about his game. I just keep hearing people say he’s a “bust”, he sucks, The Wizards should trade him, etc… I’d like to see an unbiased (or biased if you want) opinion of his play…

Rook

Why don’t Buck and Phil do SL games?

Someday, I’ll ask my old bosses about this.

Gary Forbes got the nod instead. Interesting. Going small. I guess McGee was that bad the other day.

Throw it down!

You think JaVale McGee is going to be a bust or not, you have to admit he is a freak athletically for a man who is 7ft tall and has a 7’6” wingspan. One announcer compared him to Tyson Chandler with more agility. I could live with that…

I guess this falls under the “showing up fashionably late” category. Did I miss anything good so far?

I love McGee… Blatche played great early…I am beginning to really like Wallace..NY still is off (cmon nick) DOm is playin outta his mind

Dominic McGuire showing some touch. 80% from the field?

McGuire has been working on his shot this summer.

McGee has scary tremendous upside potential ability (or whatever makes GM’s draft raw talent). Kid is visibly more comfortable.

Brown really isn’t impressing.

NY still fades on every shot.

Looks great….WOW… and again I like how JV McGee has come out this game lets go enjoy the 2nd half

If JaVale had made that reverse layup, I would’ve walked out of the house. I’m not joking.

We’re attacking the basket instead of settling for jumpers in this half.

Good takes by Young, Dee and McGuire to start the half.

On free throws.

Because I do like that McGee is more active on both ends today.

But he just ran flying out to try to contest a three and fell into the first row. Meanwhile, Philly got the rebound that led to a Thaddeus Young dunk.

If he was more under control with his closeout, that’d never happen.

Dee’s screwing up the offense.

But he’s played a lot better today.

I’m not sure what happened to Nick’s game, though.
