Back in the preseason, the Wizards made it very clear that things were going fine.
No one seems to know if the Wizards will be great or terrible, but everyone seems to agree things are fine.#SeasonOfFine pic.twitter.com/liJjFvKkra

However, a lot has changed since training camp. Ian Mahinmi, the Wizards’ top free agent signing, underwent surgery and has only played in one game this season. With him out of the lineup, the rest of the bench has struggled, which has forced the starters to log extra minutes to minimize their negative impact. As a result, the team is off to a disappointing 9-14 start, with losses to the Heat, Magic, and 76ers.
Given the struggles, you could understand why some people might want to panic about the team. But don’t worry, things are still fine.
Ian Mahinmi
Ian Mahinmi is out tonight vs #Magic. Said he had an MRI and "everything was fine." This is his 5th straight missed game.
