Well, at least Mike James was freed.

What a discouraging time this is...

Chin up Mike, you still run a great blog.

not to beat a dead horse

so many open jumpers were passed up so that our players could go 1 on many.
nick young not swinging the ball to mike miller during one play and then proceeding to turn it over in the second half, shows a lack of trust in the offense, or just plain old ‘gotta get mine’ attitude… (also, someone please wipe the slow motion behind the back crossover from his arsenal)

we should just let jamison and miller salvage the rest of this season, and go to a playoff team

this game never happened.

move along. fast forward to 2011. gilbert arenas is 100% healthy, advocating for DC school kids to be smart and not get involved in anything that could lead to violence. jamison is coming off a championship season with someone (not cleveland). mike miller is on track to be the first league mvp by averaging 10 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists for the 1st place wiz. mike james won the all-star 3 point shoot out. and javale mcgee is averaging 20 and 20 and dunked on a 14 foot rim at the ASG.

Why does Flip strut around like...

the Wizards are 25-12? They are 12 and nothing. Why isn’t McGee being developed? No one can deny he has skills. Can no one in the Wiz organization teach him how to better utilize them? If not, why not hire Ewing as a big man coach?

I Wish I Saw What You Did

I have seen the exact opposite of strutting from Flip this season. His demeanor has looked slumped and resigned to me. I’m really curious what you saw.
