PrintI'll be honest: I'm just happy this one is over, even if the Wizards lost.

At least they've caught us in draft position.
Good try guys.

The best game for the Wizards now is the close, exciting match that ends in a big 'L'
No sense deluding management that they’re a contender. And, better chances in the draft.
agreed
I was totally pleased with this game. Lot of positive signs from our young guys. Blatche looks great, and I don’t mind the turnovers because most of those are coming from the new double-teams being thrown at him. Javale is improving, though he still has plenty of work to do. Thornton looked good too. And a the end of the day, that one loss could improve our draft position by a full spot.
Now we just need to hope Singleton is alright.
Yep, satisfactory if sad
They ran out of gas (and players… which is pretty much the same thing) at the end.
And as I said last night, I’m still glad we did not wind up getting Harrington. Last thing we need atthis stage is anothe me-first player.
I was watching the Cleveland-Toronto game while following the wizzies on gamecast. Jamison actually played more minutes than King Crab. But the guy who impressed me was Jarrett Jack, who is a good, big, point guard and did the same thing to Mo Williams that he did to us the other day.
Blatche shoots 11-21
and his shooting % for the last 6 games DROPS 3 percentage points !!!
26 points, 18 rebouns, 6 assists, 3 blocks and a steal….. not a bad line
(I’d like to see fewer than 8 Turn Overs, though)
Bullets Forever - where "Dagger ! " happens......
They were even better. I think he ran out of gas in the OT

Im so impressed with how 7 Day is playing....
…and he’s learning a lot by playing a lot of minutes… especially on how to deal with double teams…
did mcgrady sit the entire 4th Quarter?
kind of a side issue – but that’s weird. i’m sure they’re monitoring his minutes and all, but he was playing really well.

His first game back he sat out an OT as well.

I think they are limiting him to 25-30 a game
I swear Phil dropped that little nugget during the game
did anyone catch the interview with Robert Pollin?
He sounded like he wanted to keep Gilbert (or maybe was resigned to keeping Gilbert…i couldn’t quite tell).
Post a FanShot of it if you can find it
I’m very curious to hear it.
You know you'll get devoured by Cheaney, Wallace, and Juwan Howard.
FanShot plz
If you can find an embed video from Comcast’s web site, that’s preferable.

Is it nice or sad that ...
We our paying our best player $3.5/yr for the next two years, but that its Andray Blatche
Was the wierdest game ever. The refs made so many calls it actually gave me a headache it was like natzy referring on steroids and acid. Unenjoyable
meanwhile, the Mavs and Cavs continue to roll tonight with big wins.
I’m hoping for a Mavs v. Cavs NBA Final.
be great seeing four Wizards play in June.
horrible free throw shooting + no singleton
caused this loss.

they lost their best defensive option on Lee early in the game
and shot under 60% on free throws.

I agree
poor free throw shooting or no, the energy definitely dipped when Singleton left. And he would’ve slowed down Harrington.
agree again
still they got robbed by the HORRIBLE calls at the end of the game.
I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy.
Hard to believe
The Wizards had so much more optimism just a couple months ago. Who could have possibly predicted such a meltdown? I could see a breakdown, but this smells like Oregon Duck.

D-Steve played 25 min and got a plus/minus of -23
No one else on the team had more than a -6. Some how playing Stevensons dead corpse for two quarters they still won by 8 in overtime. How does Stevenson do it? Really I want to know.
He must have a home video of Cuban and Pollin doing it
No other explanation. He blackmails his time in the NBA.
Deshawn Stevenson shut down Kobes primary offense in their win against the Lakers. Let the Deshawn hate but if the guys offense was going no one would talk, he had a back injury and his shot never came back. His shot is horrid, he angles his back in an uncomfortable matter and kind of jumps in an akward position im not surprised he always misses.
That awkward motion predates last year’s back injury.

Yeah, Stevenson had a weird-looking outside shot to begin with
Like he was tilting sideways during the release. Dallas is no stranger to weird shooters, though. Shawn Marion, for example..
