PREGAME READING: | The Dream Shake | |

Mike is taking a much needed break over the weekend, so I will be your caretaker for both the Rockets and Bobcats.
Some quick thoughts before we launch:
- We have talked about the OKC model and Mike's Seattle model, but what about the Rockets model? Looking at their team should give any fan cause for concern that even by stockpiling the best assets, an organization is unable to to pull off a trade to get over the hump. That is how you end up with a lot of nice pieces, but no true superstar.
- Chandler Parsons dunking on JaVale McGee - funny or not?
- Blatche vs. Scola - who you got?
- Is Kevin Martin the rich man's Nick Young?

Given a dearth of remaining brain cells....
….I don’t drink anymore. But there is enough gray stuff up there to know that the Wizards have more talent than Houston. However, Houston plays as a team, which unfortunately makes them a prohibitive favorite tonight.

yes....he does that more than one would think...
he seems to pass up the open shots and step in or go to the basket, sometimes to his detriment in terms of shot difficulty….but if he doesn’t think that is his range, that is better than missing. i would prefer making the three though if he is that open.

Get Vesely back in!!!
His rebounding keeps them from getting so many second chances like that last play
IT was just embarrassing when there were three rockets on the offensive glass
And only one Wizard.
He is really, really pale.
His body just camouflages into that white jersey.

Nick's first step is very slow
His inability to get to the rim is really hurting us.
Formerly know as iNFamous SWaGG
Blatche's PNR D is awful
Once he hedges the pick, he always loses track of his actual man and stays on the guard too long, or is just too slow to recover.

If we don't move the ball on O, we ain't winning. Period.
We’re slowly falling back into the old mode under Flip.

I am convinced
that Rashard Lewis+Andray Blatche are the slowest starting forward combo in the NBA — and it’s not even close.
He has had a bad game, which is
disappointing considering he played relatively well against the Bobcats. Also, Scola is coming off a knee injury (I think?) and is a step slow. Blatche should be beating him off the dribble with ease….

you talking about a trade with Minnesota for Derrick Williams?
When did Mike propose that trade?
I used to have super powers until my psychiatrist took them away.

He was revisiting the draft day trade talk
And saying he would trade McGee for Williams in a heartbeat, if I’m not mistaken.
o i thought u meant
deron williams the first time u brought it up. Derrick Williams from Minny makes a lot more sense. Not sure Minny makes that deal though.
I don't know....
They have multiple wings…. including Derrick Williams, Wesley Johnson, Michael Beasley and Martell Webster….
But their Center situation sucks (Nikola Pekovic, and Darko Milicic)….
That trade could benefit both teams.
I used to have super powers until my psychiatrist took them away.
I hope they see it that way Rook
I would make that deal in a heartbeat.

The blame falls mostly on JaVale McGee and Blatche
In my opinion. And yes, I’m placing blame

The worst part is this game got out of hand so quickly
It wasn’t a slow beating

Why is the game falling out of contraol so quickly?
Once we start fall, it’s like Bungie Jump.
Where is it?
I mean, seriously?

..So much for Wittman being our Sloan
And lifting the curse off the team that drafted him

I really liked Budinger in the 2009 draft.....
thought he should have been a 1st rounder…
I also liked Patrick Patterson in 2010
I used to have super powers until my psychiatrist took them away.
Yeah - thanks...
If I were Ernie, I’d still be making that call to Minny
I used to have super powers until my psychiatrist took them away.
so mentally weak
like its…pathetically weak. All u have to do is push the Wiz a lil bit and they will break
Yeah - so much for Randy Whitman bringing a "new voice"
and a breath of fresh air to the Wizards
I used to have super powers until my psychiatrist took them away.
Right?
I haven’t seen a team with so little fight since high school…

What Happened?
I go to get a drink and i come back to see were down by 30??
i cant help but blame this on blatche
Before he came in we were down 2 and he just fucked up the whole tempo

this should be personally embarrasing to Wittman
he has gotta coach games like bernie Bickerstaff used to call time outs when teams make 4 pt runs stem their mometum Bernie never had timeouts late in games but kept you in the game with all the timeouts.
you let this bunch play through 10 pt runs and it’ll spread to this crap.
We are double screwed
You can get away with no making shots with defense and vice versa. We can’t make shots, rebound OR play defense. What is our identity again?
I'm not going to think of something extra witty or clever to say, I don't want to convince you to see things my way, I just have 2 words for you: JEREMY LAMB
Glad we are standing til we score...we haven't scored
this quarter…and we haven’t scored in 6 min…
last time we scored was 2:31 left in the 3rd…
What is Wittman doing?
Why sit Wall so much? He brings him back in in the 4th when we’re down 25? That’s stupid. He leaves the game were down 7. You sit him until we’re down 25 and put him back in when we have a game tomorrow? It makes no sense. He’s cold and doesnt even care right now so why put him in

OK...i dont care if we keep Javale anymore
im officially on that wagon. He IS a knucklehead to the point that its gonna hurt Wall

Recap on the first quarter?
You recapping for Houston tonight?

If Wittman wants to send a message,,,,he could start this lineup!!1
Ha….
Mack
Mason
Evans
Vesely
Booker
What message will that be?
We don’t care if we never score?

Next 10 games
@CHA
CHI
@ORL
@TOR
LAC
TOR
NY
MIA
@DET
@POR
The only two possile W’s I see there are the Raptors (one of two) and the Bobcats. Then again, this team did beat the Thunder. Maybe they’ll surprise us — not holding my breath though.
good point
though they played the Heat down to the wire Wed. night minus Gordon and Prince
by Uknowit2309 on Jan 27, 2012 10:17 PM EST up reply actions
Orlando's got problems
maybe we can steal one from them. Or maybe we’ll help them get over their problems.
I thought ORL
was gonna be ticked they lost to Boston twice in such ridiculous fashion and go on a nice little run. But NOR — at least 2nite — seems to think differently. The problem is that the Magic are just a terrible matchup for us. D-Howard owns McGee.

We can beat Charlotte.
I’ll leave it at that

If we don't beat Charlotte
In the Bobcats’ current state then this team has SERIOUS problems

point taken
if we lose to CHA then we may be one of the worst teams in history (which I believe the Bobcats are).

Ohhhhh no
I took care of it. However, i would love if you added a counterpoint

Do we even need a recap tonight?

YES
We must always recap. Otherwise, how can we remember the pain?

I think seraphin
would’ve helped so much tonight. Blatche is out of shape for life, mcgee has no endurance….at least kevin is young, stout, and bulky enough to handle scola or dalembert. Hopefully he kills it once those wisdom teeth heal.
I have no doubt Seraphin would have made an impact
Scola almost single-handedly changed the complexion of this game. Seraphin could at least bang with him
I'm not going to think of something extra witty or clever to say, I don't want to convince you to see things my way, I just have 2 words for you: JEREMY LAMB
yea i forgot how Ves was getting trucked by scola too.
Seraphin already has the NBA body type, while Ves’ will take a little while
I doubt Vesely will ever be a good matchup for a Scola type
