The Wizards lost to the Raptors, after Cory Joseph made a game-winning three in dagger fashion. It should also be noted that John Wall missed two free throws that would have won the game just seconds earlier. Washington is now 6-8, in free fall, and there will certainly be calls for some drastic changes sooner rather that later.
Postgame Video
Randy Wittman's postgame press conference is embedded above. He was pleased with Washington's improved defensive effort, but also acknowledged that the Wizards passed up some offensive opportunities.
Other videos from Monumental Network are below:
In Gortat's video, he was quick to defend Wall saying that the loss cannot be blamed on him. While I do agree that teams win and lose games together, Wall's also the franchise player and is counted upon to close games out, which he didn't do at a critical juncture like last night.
