But can Otto (and Beal) hit threes in the post season this year?  I'm still surprised at how cold they both went.  If they could hit their threes, we'd have beaten Boston.  

 

The only thing I can say about these guys is that they know it and they take it personal.

 

I really think they all just were worn out after all the minutes. Including wall. We will see though

Completely agree with the worn out part. Marcin was done by the allstar break ( looking at you Ian). Otto, the other iron man was worn out by the post season. We need the bench to provide good minutes during the regular season. The bench doesn't look good right now, but it's gotta be better than going into the season with YOLO Thornton and Burke as primary backups. Sato and Oubre should improve and at the very least, provide good defense and hustle.

Well....just looking at the group I think their conditioning has taking a few steps forward. The main 3 in particular look to be in the best shape I have ever seen them in. Hopefully with them in better shape and the bench playing a little better we will see an improvement in the postseason

I don't think Brooks has much in the plans for Sato

 

Oubre's development will make or break the bench.  Was listening to Locked on Wizards podcast (which i can't recommend enough), and they did an interview with Drew Hanlen, who trains Beal and Oubre.  He mentioned that Oubre has been reworking his shot mechanics, with his upper and lower halfs.  Hanlen mentioned that its typically a 2-3yr timeline to correct.  Pretty much confirmed what we already know, that Oubre is more athlete than baller, but is extremely dedicated to fixing his issues.  Most importantly, he knows what he needs to work on within the concept of the team.

Did Wall edit that Instagram post? This came out earlier today. Lol

 

 

Love Wall but this was a b-move. First, you wanted Paul George to come and even threw Otto under the bus for George. So you did want a Wizards super team.

 

Then you edited your post soon after, do you didn't even have conviction in your words. 

 

Whatever criticsim he gets for that, it's deserved.
