  1. But if OKC did offer Westbrook, I'd take it in a cocaine heartbeat.

    And you know what, If I'm OKC and that's what Orlando wanted to make this happen, I'd absolutely do it.

    Yep. Ship off your healthy 24 year old already top 5 NBA point guard who's only getting better for a prima donna center with back issues and no guarantee he'll sign long term. Orlando fans would be thrilled with you as GM! lol

  2. Right now he averages 12, 8, and 3 in only 27 minutes

    I see no reason why he can't score 4 more points and get 2 more rebounds if he continues too work on his game. Nice too meet you Chuck Norris

    Because with Javale it's not physical, it's mental, it's maturity, it's motivation and heart with him. You just can't "improve" with those things, either you have it or you don't. And he shows that he's lacking in many of those areas and not not willing to change.

    If his issues were physical and you told me he needs to get in the weight room and bulk up, or work on his conditioning, or work with a free throw shooting coach then i could accept in a year or two him improving if he did those things. But those things aren't his main problem.

    Turiaf is definitely not a scrub. He isn't a world beater and if he is getting more than 20 minutes per game' date=' you have issues....but he is a nice big to round out a roster. He plays hard and makes hustle plays...I really like him.

    I think Vesely has the highest basketball IQ on the team, but I definitely wouldn't call him fundamentally sound. He racks up even more stupid fouls than McGee and couldn't hit a jumper to save his life.

    Sorry, but this is just a nice way of calling him a scrub. You can find a guy off the street in your local gym that "plays hard and make hustle plays".

    Vesely can't hit jumpers? But Ernie said he could be the next Dirk Nowitzki!

  4. Dude i hate to say it' date=' but you have now gotten more annoying to read than hands11. Its really getting intolerable around here. You act like no one on this team has ever gone for a block before. Or ever played bad defense. This team has not played defense in 10 years! [b']Javale is the ONLY guy who has come into this season with any progress from last season.[/b] The only one. And yet as usual in DC, we are ready to run him out of town. Im just absolutely sick of it.

    Okay Pam Mcgee.

    Progress from last season? Okay, yeah, i'll give it to you. Last year Mcgee was an idiot. This year he's slightly less of an idiot.

    Last year Mcgee made 1 good play followed by 3 idiotic plays. This year Mcgee makes 1 good play followed by only 2 idiotic plays.

    Don't you realize that Javale Mcgee would not start on any other team in the NBA?

  5. Ahem 7/10 20points

    Young on the other hand has 4 points on 11 shots.

    Points don't mean anything. I don't care about points. He plays no defense, constantly turns the ball over, is a ball hog and only plays one on one basketball.He has the basketball IQ of a rock. He scores in meaningless garbage time against bench players and signifies and whines on every non call. I want him off this team or limit his minutes. He's nothing more than a 1 on 1 player. You have plenty of those guys in the league who may be use to "playground ball" and they don't even sniff the court on other teams. Jordan Crawford needs to be in street clothes every game. Give the minutes to a "real" NBA player that actually understands the game of basketball and knows how to run plays.

  6. Why are you John Wall homers getting offended just because someone states the obvious? You want to overlook the fact that he sucks because all he knows how to do is run full speed into defenders trying to draw a foul? When is the last time Wall scored even 20 points? The guy isn't even playing against elite talent and is sucking. Lol at the fact folks thought he was going to be Derrick Rose 2.0 or better than rose. Just saw a hurt Rose destroy the Celtics.

    Rajon Rondo has a better jumper than Wall and Rondo is like the worst shooting pg in the league.

    Stop the excuses that Wall has no talent around him. A star ball player is a star ball player no matter who's around him and it should be clearly evident who the star is.

  7. But maybe the best point guard prospect the league has seen in a few years?

    Yes, "prospect", but not yet "proven". I don't think John Wall is at a level right now that will attract a star to play with him. Chris Paul, Derron Williams, Derrick Rose, and Rajon Rondo are all at that level right now. Hopefully Wall will be there in a couple of years, but we don't know for sure if he will or not. Yeah he can score and get to the bucket, but he still has a ways to go when it comes to commanding the floor and being a general.

    And it seems like in todays NBA, you can throw all of the money you want at a free agent star player. If your roster sucks, they'll look another way. Nowadays, they'd rather take less money and go to a title contender rather than cash out on a max deal with a celler dweller team.

  8. We need to get Harrison Barnes....I think he can score right away in the NBA...so we will have a true PG in Wall and two scorers on the wings with Nick Young and Harrison Barnes.....and we will have the money to lure Dwight Howard to DC with Rashard's contract becoming only partially guaranteed in 2012.

    PG - Wall

    SG- Young

    SF- Barnes

    PF - Blatche

    C- Howard

    6th - Carawford

    notice I put Blatche in the starting lineup....with Howard and Young as our #1 and #2 scoring options I think Dray would greatly benefit with the offense NOT running through him. DHoward would also help cover his deficiencies on the boards and on defense.

    I don't think this is too far fetched...unless we don't improve next year or someone gets hurt I think DC will be the most attractive option for a big name free agent to end up. Chicago/LA/NY/Miami/ all have their salaries tied up post 2012. The only other attractive option I can think of is Boston....and all they have for 2012 is an aging Paul Pierce and Rondo. I'd rather come to chocolate city and play with John Wall and Barnes!

    edit....Dallas and LA Clippers would be two other attractive destinations. Howard-Dirk would be a pretty sick versatile front court......as would Griffin-Howard.

    What makes you think Dwight Howard or any "star" for that matter will even want to sign with the Wizards? You think he'd want to go from a talent loaded consecutive playoff appearance team in the Orlando Magic where he at least has a shot at a ring to the rebuilding Wizards full of unproven draft picks who can't even muster up 25 wins and probably won't be competitive for a few more seasons? Dwight isn't stupid, he knows that he is in his prime and athletes know that if they want a legit shot at a championship, they better seize the moment now with a good team because when their skills decline due to age/injuries, it drops quick. We couldn't even keep the scrub Mike Bibby here, as he wanted a buyout because he didn't want to play with a rebuilding team full off projects.

    Any chance of bringing an elite star here next season or the season after next may be shot. We need to focus on drafting correctly, building up the interior and defense, signing smart veterans who can contribute off of the bench, and hope that Wall buds into our star pg while adding pieces to help him out. May be a good idea to look for a better coach than Flip Colonel Saunders. He seems to not have the patience for a "rebuilding team". Once we have a decent core together and can muster up some wins and show that we can play smart basketball, then maybe a star can be lured to DC to add that final piece of the puzzle that will push us over the top.

    Oh, and trade Blatche! ;)
