I will still be in transit from New York on BoltBus while this game is happening, so I'm not sure I'm going to be able to see it. This is one time where I'm turning over recap duties to the community. If you'd like to recap this game (you can do it your own way), send me an e-mail so I know to bump your FanPost to the front page.

Too bad, because I'm really hoping Andray Blatche makes a statement against Kevin Garnett, his idol. Garnett's not the same player anymore, so this is a great opportunity for Dray. Unfortunately, Boston's the best defensive team in the league, so I'm guessing the guards will have a ton of trouble getting Dray the ball.

GO WIZARDS!
