[Going Commando]

Today's my birthday :party:

My :wish: a Wizards win :wavetowel

Happy birthday ACW. Let's hope the basketball gods grant you your wish.

[StillUnknown]

Fire this team's medical staff.

quoted because it needs to happen

[No Excuses]

Wall will not play. McGee will play but not start. I hope McGee can at least contribute 25 minutes. This is the type of front line he absolutely abuses.

[BigMike21]

Get it done tonight Wiz!!!!!

Liking what Nick Young is bringing to the table.

On a completely unrelated note, I really can't wait for the new Wizards uniforms next year. While the home uni is alright, the road uniform is atrocious. That blue is horrific.

Nice assist from Arenas to Blatche for a dunk. And Juwan Howard is in the game. I really can't believe he's still in the league.

[fullnelson9999]

Ok first quarter, Need to finish a little better and make smarter decisions.

I'm talking to you, Andray.

You know your team is going nowhere fast when you have Juwan Howard and Eric Dampier on the floor at the same time. It's utterly embarrassing how quiet/empty it is in that stadium.

Overall not a terrible first half given how many good looks we missed. Not sure why Flip didn't ride it out with Young after he picked up that one foul.

Hinrich's decision making is flat out terrible, Blatche with some bad passes as well.

[G.A.C.O.L.B.]

Really dumb Armstrong. Especially after Brand's flagrant 2 last week on McGee. And if you're gonna foul someone hard, at least make it Lebron.

And the fact that it took the refs 5 minutes to sort through this is pathetic.

Oh and don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out Juwan. You bum.

Glad to see Howard ejected as well. No doubt that Armstrong deserved it, but so did Howard.

[No Excuses]

Extremely vicious play by Armstrong. I hope the league suspends him for the year. Justice must be served.

[G.A.C.O.L.B.]

God we're right there with them but the shots just aren't falling for us. Damn shame..

[G.A.C.O.L.B.]

I can't tell if Howard through a backhanded punch at Nick Young on purpose if it just appeared that way because he turned around so fast.

[G.A.C.O.L.B.]

Now I'm actually happy about this. Hinrich didn't back down for **** and there should be bad blood between division rivals. Hopefully this is the start of a bitter feud. And we put it to these ****ers on the 18th back at the Phone Booth. I'll be there FOR SURE.

I was talking about the push into Armstrong's back after the flagrant.

That being said, McGee is going to be the best C we've had in a long time. He doesn't back down, and at least TRIES to outwork everyone on the court. At the very least a big upgrade from Haywood.

Oh I know. I was just thinking out loud about the shot to Nick Young's face.

And Haywood was arguably a top 10 center his last two years or so in DC. But you're right, McGee is going to be special.

[No Excuses]

Hopefully Wall, Howard and Yi are back for the next meeting. Really sucked watching Booker defend Bosh, Blatche being gassed and Hinrich throwing up brick after brick.

[G.A.C.O.L.B.]

I think this is the first time in my life that we have multiple players who can throw it down with authority.

[MonkFan8]

Considering the fact that this game was terribly ref'd, that the Wizards couldn't hit a single shot despite good looks for the first 7 min of both the 2nd and the 4th quarter, and we were without Wall, I'm not all that displeased with this performance.

If we have Wall in there for Kirk we win this game easily. The only good play Kirk made all night was getting in Jones' face.

That dunk by Booker at the end was insane.

[Mr. Sinister]

You'll need it.

Maybe next time.

[G.A.C.O.L.B.]

e.

That dunk by Booker at the end was insane.

Blake Griffin-esque.

Agree with you on all your other points as well.

December 18th baby. It's on.

Yep. He continued to elevate after he looked like he reached his peak. Basically just like Griffin, pretty nasty.

Yep, gonna mark that one on the calendar for sure, might even try to snag tickets.

[Mr. Sinister]

I'll be at that game on the 18th, maybe I'll see you all there I don't know what section I'll be in yet though.

You wanna throw down with me in the parking lot? I'd like to beat a Heat fan before the game so I'm at maximum hype during.

[Mr. Sinister]

I'd be happy to kick your ass GACOLB. Hopefully youve been hitting the gym lately, or it might be over real quick. Bring Vishal too, that way there can be a witness, although I may be tempted to kick his ass too.
