Wizards Insider: The Other Side: Magic
Starting Lineups:
Wizards
PG: Mike James
SG: Caron Butler
SF: Dominic McGuire
PF: Antawn Jamison
C: Darius Songaila (more on this in a second)
Magic
PG: Jameer Nelson
SG: Courtney Lee
SF: Hedo Turkoglu
PF: Rashard Lewis
C: Dwight Howard
Here's to the Boston-Cleveland-Orlando three-game stretch! Before we go further though, apparently Darius Songaila is starting tonight. The reason? Andray Blatche is healthy, but isn't starting because of "a team matter."
Songaila replaces Andray Blatche at center in the starting lineup tonight after Blatche had started the last 10 games. Blatche is healthy but when asked the reason for the move, interim coach Ed Tapscott called it a "team matter." I did a little asking around after Tapscott let us know about an hour before tip but wasn't able to find out what exactly "team matter" means.
Something tells me the "team matter" refers to Blatche asking Tapscott "Hey, I was healthy enough to play most of the Cleveland game, and we were blowing out lead, so why didn't I play down the stretch?" And it's hard to punish the guy in that case because he's right, right?
Regardless, this better be for an important reason. If it's not, it's yet another example of this organization placing more emphasis on appeasing its veterans over developing its youngsters. And seeing as how well Blatche has been playing this season, I don't know how you can justify saying that Songaila actually gives you a better chance to win.
Ugh, I'm annoyed.
Either way, GO WIZARDS!

Always drama with this team-
who knows what is going on anymore. Maybe we’ll be enlightened tomorrow.
PS Dee Brown got cut by the suns today.
They might sign him to a 10 day contract-
bright side is reporting.

Dammit
I was looking forward to Pietrus’ flagrant off-ball fouling on Caron Butler.

no way
he’s just a “physical defender” as they say.
those guys always seem to hit some big shots against us

No mention of Blatche and the "team matter"

That’s, uh, not good.

Goaltending or no goaltending, that was nasty.
Bullets Forever: A blog dedicated to the Washington Wizards with analysis, commentary, and more YouTube videos than your eyes can handle.
Well ...
I don’t really know what to say. We are shooting terribly and there is no urgency in anything we do. We are not starting the offense until 14 seconds on the shot clock and then running it lazily and settling for a bad shot.
this is the worst "basketball"
i’ve ever seen them play.
1st quarter wasn’t too bad either.

They're letting Orlando dictate where they go
Orlando’s basically forcing them right into the help. Every damn time. And we keep taking it and get trapped.
Don’t let them overplay you like this! Guards!
You know you'll get devoured by Cheaney, Wallace, and Juwan Howard.
Yep
I would blame our guard play, but our front-court has been so bad that I can’t help but spread the “love” around. Caron looks like he’s still a little gimpy, which is not helping things.
Caron's the biggest culprit, from my vantage point
You know you'll get devoured by Cheaney, Wallace, and Juwan Howard.
This might cheer you up
LeBron not convinced he walked.
Bullets Forever: A blog dedicated to the Washington Wizards with analysis, commentary, and more YouTube videos than your eyes can handle.
My God
The nerve of him to say some of the stuff he did. He’s such an arrogant jerk.
How can anyone defend the dude at this point? It’s over two days later. Why can’t he let it go?
You know you'll get devoured by Cheaney, Wallace, and Juwan Howard.
It cheers me a little ...
Problem is that I can’t get too excited about the “crab dribble” when every time I watch Nick Young I want to call him for a carry. That being said, LeBron is an arrogant bastard.
We are halfway to our second-quarter point total!
Yay!

well he was trash on New Orleans-
and for us he starts.
Blatche not starting
from Wizards insider:
"it’s related to the way Blatche reacted after coming out of the game on Sunday against Cleveland. "
Bullets Forever - where "Dagger ! " happens......
Seriously?
Unbelievable. That’s a very unimportant thing. You’re angry at somebody for wanting to stay in the game?
I’m pissed.
You know you'll get devoured by Cheaney, Wallace, and Juwan Howard.
Unless
he made it personal with Tapscott…..or was otherwise inappropriate
Bullets Forever - where "Dagger ! " happens......
Even so
You’re going to punish a guy who expresses anger because he was taken out by deciding not to play him? Seems counter intuitive.
Fine him, scold him, whatever. Don’t bench him.
You know you'll get devoured by Cheaney, Wallace, and Juwan Howard.
I agree
Pretty ridiculous … That being said, Songaila has worked his ass off tonight. Criticize his physical skills, fine, but the guy plays hard every night, something you can’t say for some of our guys.
Right
That stuff is good for a 20-minute backup.
You know you'll get devoured by Cheaney, Wallace, and Juwan Howard.
theoretically
I mean … before injuries. I agree playing him at center is insane.
This is true
But he shouldn’t be playing down the stretch, nor should he be starting. And since he has three more years left on a team over the tax, we don’t need him anymore.
You know you'll get devoured by Cheaney, Wallace, and Juwan Howard.
I disagree with some of that
I agree he should not be a starter or playing down the stretch … but I think that he could be a 15 min a game guy on a good team. He plays hard, plays fundamental ball. He is the only one on the team who knows how to run a pick and roll. He’s worth keeping around.
I'm going to write a post about this soon
But he isn’t because of his salary. Unless you expect Abe to pay the tax.
You know you'll get devoured by Cheaney, Wallace, and Juwan Howard.
Just curious
How much more money could Songaila have made in his career if he had another foot or so of range on his shot?
Bullets Forever: A blog dedicated to the Washington Wizards with analysis, commentary, and more YouTube videos than your eyes can handle.
This is a good question
Definitely a lot more.
You know you'll get devoured by Cheaney, Wallace, and Juwan Howard.
I agree completely
It is unbelievable that he has not learned to hit the three. If he could hit the three he’s a better version of LaFrentz.
I think it's probably an athleticism thing
Songaila doesn’t exactly jump very high when he takes his shot, I bet that probably affects his shot more once he gets into three point territory.

Yeah
The 3QR people were asking if Caron was injured at halftime and I said I thought he was. I guess he was just off.

Buck and Phil -
mentioned that Caron is saying the ankle is only at 80%
i wish
we still had roger mason jr.
he would put up some points
instead of chucking up bricks like deshawn
but i guess he gets hot at times
Ehh
I live in San Antonio
And it is like a dagger in my heart every time I hear the local sports guys talking about home much everyone loves Roger Mason Jr. It hurts.
But look at the bright side
At least it simplifies who to root for in the playoffs this year.

Where did Orlando find this Gortat guy?
You know you'll get devoured by Cheaney, Wallace, and Juwan Howard.
Well
I hate this team we have in right now.
Yeah we have seen that a couple of times tonight. It gives Blatche an excuse to get the ball behind the 3 and dribble a lot (i.e. turn the ball over).
I just worry that'll be used against Dray more than it should
You know you'll get devoured by Cheaney, Wallace, and Juwan Howard.
True
I think he can become a good inside/outside guy, but it seems too segregated right now. He is either playing low or out at the three line, never going back and forth.
Butler needs to sit for a second
Getting a little trigger happy. Blatche was wide open.
You know you'll get devoured by Cheaney, Wallace, and Juwan Howard.
Whaddaya know
Blatche is out of the game.
Why is Etan still in there?
You know you'll get devoured by Cheaney, Wallace, and Juwan Howard.
Alright, now it applies
And McGuire? You kidding me?
You know you'll get devoured by Cheaney, Wallace, and Juwan Howard.
So ...
How did we end up with 2 coaches in one season with super deep dog houses? Will JaVale ever play again?
Come on, why is Etan in this late
Why why why?
You know you'll get devoured by Cheaney, Wallace, and Juwan Howard.
?
Who would you rather have in? Etan has played well against Howard tonight.
i'm sure
that’s what tapscott is thinking at least

Songaila, Blatche
McGee.
Etan hasn’t played well against Howard. Orlando just keeps forgetting about him.
You know you'll get devoured by Cheaney, Wallace, and Juwan Howard.
Well
as much as we would love it … for whatever reason JaVale is not coming in and blatche can’t guard Howard. I bet we put in Songaila for offense if we get this a little closer.
sometimes i think
that if michael ruffin was still playing
we’d be better on defense because in order to see the basket to shoot
u have to look at him and then u fall over and give up the ball
it was a great strategy
the cavs use it with delonte west and their oscar-nominated actor anderson sideshow bob varejao

Could not agree more. He set up the offense, brought the ball up quick. He was a good back up PG.
What a dumb foul
We had him trapped. Why’d you bail him out?
Can’t defend without fouling. That’s been the story all year.

Mike James
We’re only playing this guy so we can trade him right?

Who do we put in at this point? Critt will be good, but he still looks a little uncofortable and takes too long to set p the O.

He's having a really, really good year
I always thought he wasn’t good, but he is proving me wrong this year.

You need
a true PG who can knock down a clutch three and get it in to the paint to your star … and Nelson is more proof that you can easily get that in the late first round of the draft. Why we have not done this yet is beyond me.
Well
Don’t get me wrong, I love JaVale, I am just sayin, it has been a long time since we drafted a PG.
Because we had a PG
Someone named Gil something-or-another
Bullets Forever - where "Dagger ! " happens......
Then
we traded AD and cut our only other PG, Dee Brown. Seems a little nuts to me.
Well AD's old and we have no use for him anymore
And we got Javaris for cutting Dee Brown.

I think I have an idea of what he meant
Caron kept catching the ball in the corner. Orlando kept doubling him. That limited his effectiveness.
But is that the Princeton’s fault?
You know you'll get devoured by Cheaney, Wallace, and Juwan Howard.
Nope
But after doing some digging, I found out that Guokas went to St. Joseph’s who is of course a member of the Big 5, along with Penn. Who is one of Penn’s big Ivy League rivals? Princeton.

it seems that we’re not getting killed every game but we’re not finishing in the 4th
maybe if gilbert comes back we’ll have another playmaker on offense or haywood i dont know

yea true
but we lost some opportunities to tie-it-up/take the lead
but i was mainly talking about most of our games as a whole
we seem to play well and keep it close but not well enough

We were never down by less than three in the fourth

Brendan-
Comcast is reporting that the pin in his hand is being removed tomorrow and then rehab will begin. They think he may come back this season but not for another two months so barely any time left in the season.
Nice picture of Ike Austin.
Goodness was he terrible with the Magic. Talk about a one season wonder.
