Forgot actual #wizards news: Mike Miller practiced fully today, is expected to play at #sixers on Tues. What if healthy Wiz started winning?

To paraphrase others:

If having Mike Miller (who wasn’t even on the roster last season) back on the squad is supposed to be the cure-all, then things are worse than we thought.

You do realize

that things are awful already, right?

of course

but I think some fans are still clinging to the “having Mike Miller back will fix things” theory. If anything, it means less time for NY and Foye (as opposed to Boykins).

I think after everything that has happened over the past few days-

none of the BF posters are under that illusion anymore. Our troubles are far worse than injuries these days.

clearly the problems are bigger than 1 guy coming back.

but basketball-wise, he made so much sense for this team, made things easier for all players. i was really (maybe irrationally) hyped for what he could add to the current line-up.
plus, no way the locker room and in-flight B.S. goes on with miller’s monkey there to enforce.

unless that monkey knows karate

I doubt even that would have made a difference.

me neither-

Gilbert seems to do what he wants when he wants. He should have been forced to get a therapist as part of his $111 million contract.

that's b/c EJ was more concerned

being Arenas’ buddy instead of his coach, and Ernie wanted to claim that he made another long-term power move. Flip’s trying to change that, but it appears that he’s not getting much help from the other players. You know how you can watch games and tell whether teammates genuinely like hanging around each other? I don’t really get that with the Wizards lately. They’re teammates, sure. But even if they were bucking Flip’s offense they (theoretically) should have the team chemistry to beat the less-talented teams.

I want to see it

I still would love to see this roster complete. I was on the bandwagon
in the preseason. Even if its to late and trades are coming I want to see
what these guys could do together.
