Bleacher report Sucks

But this was a pretty convincing article even though the headline is totally unfair. You can’t call John Wall a bust by any measure. Nonetheless, watching him play for a season and a few weeks I feel less excited about him than I did last year. Hopefully he will do what it takes to be a star, and hopefully our crack coaching staff will put him into position to succeed.

The stat sheet lineup should have just shown all opposing point guards in the beginning....

and yes, Bleacher Report is SB Nation on welfare unfortunately. There are some good writers on there, but it is not as refined as Bullets Forever.

Bleacher Report is the worst sports website that tries to be legit

Wall bashing is quite in vogue at the moment

He won't be a bust

But will he be a legitimate franchise player a team can build around? I’m starting to have my doubts. He has to improve in many areas for that to happen.

We'vee seen too much from Wall to label him a bust

He just has a bunch of work to do (namely ball-handling and shooting) and so does this organization with getting him some pieces to help him in the offense.

Typical bleacher report terribleness

for all their fancy user interface and display, BR sucks. I half expected the article to be a “10 reasons” slideshow. Is Wall the sure thing franchise player we all expected him to be? No. Or at least not yet. But busts don’t have triple doubles in their 6th game of their career. Busts don’t drop 38, 8 and 6 w/ 4 steals 1 TO. Believe me we as Wizards/Redskins fans we are all very aware of what a bust looks like. And Wall, for his shortcomings, is over rated perhaps but certainly not a bust.

Wall is fine PG, he always depended in speed, and got away with it for while but in the NBA they take that away from you by taking the charge, John loves to do a great pass and have the shooter, shoot but on the Wiz at present the recipient gets the pass and tries to create. They need to catch and shoot not catch, dribble, fumble the ball, get it back miss the shot, ect
