<p>Friday, the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.bulletsforever.com/">Wizards</a> raced out to a big lead against the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.libertyballers.com/">76ers</a> and held on in the second half after Philly clawed their way back into the game. Saturday's game wasn't much different, except the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.atthehive.com/">Hornets</a> were able to take advantage of the Wizards' offensive struggles.</p>

<p>With <span>Bradley Beal</span> coming off the bench due to a minutes restriction, <span>Randy Wittman</span> went with a starting lineup of <span>Marcin Gortat</span>, <span>Jared Dudley</span>, <span>Garrett Temple</span> and John Wall. Though the spacing left much to be desired, crafty playmaking from Wall and a combination of playmaking and shooting from Dudley kept the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.bulletsforever.com/">Wizards</a> offense working early. The game was tied at the end of the first quarter, 25-25.</p>

</p>
<p>The second quarter was the <span>Otto Porter</span> show. Playing many of his minutes at power forward (next to either <span>Drew Gooden</span> or Gortat at center), Porter scored 17 points in the quarter, hitting threes, midrange fadeaways, and scoring in transition. On the other end of the floor, perimeter-happy big men <span>Spencer Hawes</span> and <span>Frank Kaminsky</span> couldn't manage to leverage their size against him in the post. The Wizards lead by as many as 19 points.</p>
<p>But even at the end of the third quarter, the cracks were beginning to show. Lineups featuring <span>Ramon Sessions</span> and <span>Gary Neal</span> struggled mightily to contain <span>Kemba Walker</span>, <span>Jeremy Lin</span>, and Jeremy Lamb. When Dudley returned to the game and Porter slid back over to the wing, he struggled to defend <span>Nicolas Batum</span>. A Batum-fueled 10-1 run left the Wizards up just 10 at the end of the first half.</p>
<p>With the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.atthehive.com/">Hornets</a> turning a little more attention to Porter in the third quarter, the lack of spacing dried up the Wizards offense. Gortat, in particular, struggled as his rolls to the rim were all in heavy traffic. Temple, Neal, and Sessions shot a combined 0/8 from three for the game, giving the Hornets little incentive to unpack the paint. The Hornets clawed their way back, taking the lead in the middle of the third with a Batum dunk.</p>
<p>The game remained close, but the Wizards failed to get stops when they needed them. The Wizards trailed by three with two seconds remaining in the game. <span>Michael Kidd-Gilchrist</span> fouled Wall, who made his first free throw to cut the deficit to 2. Wall intentionally missed the second attempt, but the Hornets secured the rebound. The Wizards were forced to foul and Walker made both, putting the game away.</p>
<p>The Wizards are now five games below .500, and 3.5 games out of the playoffs. After getting his fourth career triple-double last night against the Sixers, Wall finished tonight with 23 points, 6 rebounds, and 10 assists. Otto Porter quieted down after his hot start, scoring just two points in the second half. He finished with 20 points, 8 rebounds, and 4 steals.</p>
<h3>Game Notes</h3>
<p><b>Bradley Beal continues to shine in limited minutes</b></p>
<p>Beal, playing in his first back-to-back since returning from his most recent stress injury, came off the bench due to a minutes restriction. He made the most of his time on the floor, scoring 22 points and dishing 3 assists in 20 minutes of play. He was also arguably played the best defense on Batum of any Wizard, with excellent ball denial.</p>
<p>The Wizards will only get better as Beal is able to play more, and the second unit defense will get a major boost from Temple's return to the bench.</p>
<p><b>Kelly Oubre (mostly) rides the bench</b></p>
<p>Despite the Wizards defensive issues, Oubre saw just 4 minutes of action tonight, all at the beginning of the fourth quarter. Despite performing well as a starter while Porter was injured, Oubre has found himself out of the rotation. Instead, Wittman has relied heavily on Gary Neal, as well as using Sessions as the third guard alongside Wall and Beal. Oubre was understandably rusty in his few minutes of play, immediately stepping out of bounds with the ball. Still, the defense noticeably improved with him on the floor.</p>

<p>The Washington Wizards snapped a two game losing streak on Friday against the Philadelphia 76ers, but they must carry that same momentum into Charlotte to kill the Super Bowl buzz in town as they face the Hornets.</p> <p>Sure, the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.bulletsforever.com/">Wizards</a> got things done against a seven win <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.libertyballers.com/">Philadelphia 76ers</a> team, but now they'll have to prove their worth against a more formidable foe. The Charlotte <strike>Bobcats</strike> <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.atthehive.com/">Hornets</a> are no joke. After starting the season on a bit of a hot streak, the Hornets have cooled down but still present a challenge for the Wizards.</p>
<p>This game will, by no means, be an easy win. The Hornets are 24-26 after a disappointing month of January where they were bitten by the injury bug and went 6-11 throughout the month. They took a disappointing loss to the Miami heat last night, but <span>Kemba Walker</span>, <span>Nicolas Batum</span> and <span>Marvin Williams</span> were all 20 point scorers in that game.</p>
<p>The Wizards will need to be sharp if they want to leave Buzz City with a victory. Every game is pivotal as they head into the All-Star break and prepare to make another push for playoff seeding.</p>

<p><b>Where: </b>Time Warner Cable Arena, Charlotte, N.C.</p>
<p><b>TV: </b>CSN Washington</p>
<p><b>Radio: </b>99.1 WNEW</p>
<h3>Injury Report</h3>
<p><b>Wizards: </b>Nene is questionable with a calf injury, <span>Alan Anderson</span> is still out with an ankle injury and <span>Kris Humphries</span> is out with a knee injury.</p>
<p><b>Hornets: </b><span>Al Jefferson</span> is out with a knee injury.</p>
<h3>Keys to the game</h3>
<p><b>Keep playing hard</b></p>
<p>The Wizards came out with an edge against the 76ers. That was the same effort we saw against the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.goldenstateofmind.com/">Golden State Warriors</a> that had them in the game essentially throughout on Wednesday. The Wizards have to come out with that same effort on the road against the Hornets.</p>
<p>I'm not a huge effort guy because it takes more than just trying to play NBA basketball, but the Wizards played with an edge the last two games. It waned in the second half of the 76ers game, but they finished strong. They've got to continue this for more success.</p>
<p><b>Move quickly, but don't rush</b></p>
<p>The Wizards came into the season wanting to play at a break neck speed, but that quickly turned into a negative with all of the turnover struggles earlier in the season. They've since slowed down the pace and it's helped them out in their wins.</p>
<p>Overall, the Wizards have just over 100 possessions per game, but in wins they typically finish with just about 98 according to NBA.com's stats tool. The Wizards have to be patient against a good defensive team like Charlotte. The first shot is not always the best shot, and the best shot may require a bit of tweaking to find. Hopefully the Wizards aren't forced into offense they don't like in this one.</p>
<p><b>Keep <span>Bradley Beal</span> in attack mode</b></p>
<p>As Umair noted<a href="http://www.bulletsforever.com/2016/2/5/10925438/washington-wizards-philadelphia-76ers-nba-final-score-recap-john-wall-triple-double" target="_blank"> in last night's recap</a>, Bradley Beal had an excellent floor game. Sure, we've seen Beal score 20-plus points before. But he's never looked more different. He's keeping his dribble alive on offense, creating space with deadly crossovers and attacking the rim like he never has.</p>
<p>On the other end of the floor Beal is playing hard, forcing turnovers and being a pest. It's a relatively small sample, yes. But the results are really encouraging. If Beal continues playing this way the Wizards may have a legitimate run in them.</p>
<h3>Wiz Killer of the Night</h3>
<p>Nicolas Batum is an easy pick because he's so good, so I'll go in the direction of Marvin Williams. He's originally a wing player but now plays a lot of stretch four minutes for Charlotte. He's got the three ball and is able to stretch the floor, can attack closeouts well and has really found his way on the offensive end in Charlotte.</p>
<p>Despite the evolution of the Wizards into a small ball club, they still have struggled to keep up with select stretch fours this season. Williams could be another thorn in their side as they look to continue their winning ways in Charlotte.</p>
