StillUnknown Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 (edited) 41 combined turnovers i know its a charitable time of year, but damn Edited December 5, 2015 by StillUnknown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Going Commando Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 I think Otto was at center for most of the time down the stretch. That was the wildest game of the year. So much bad fundamental basketball. But it was strangely entertaining. Wall/Beal/Otto/Sessions carried us to the win. Beal put us on his back and came through. Been waiting to see him get back to how he was before he hurt his shoulder. Hopefully this means he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperBash Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 Haha I just went over to the RealGM board and looked at the trade thread. Good Lord, it's like most of them think Beal is barely average. Yes, let's move him to LAC for Redick and picks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Going Commando Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 I enjoy the RealGM community. But that board posts some of the worst trade ideas I've seen. The place is very knee-jerk and impatient and they routinely undervalue/underrate our assets. If that community was in charge of the Wizards roster, this would be our current team: Kyle Lowry Ersan Ilyasova Isiah Thomas Avery Bradley Jae Crowder Omer Asik 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going Commando Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 I can't believe Otto at C actually worked last night. Lin disappeared from the game, they used Leuer sparingly, and they put Markieff Morris in at C in response. No rebounding or rim protection for them. We actually dictated the terms of play for once.

Going Commando Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 When Beal banged knees with Tucker and he was rolling around holding it, did anyone else's stomach drop as they had thoughts of Gil and Gerald Wallace? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skin'emAlive Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 So was Otto's defense that good, or was their front court that bad? I was shocked at how bad Len looked out there. I thought he was a great pick for Phoenix. But in light of the Tyson Chandler signing and him being shut down by a team with no front court, I have severe doubts about him.

BRAVEONAWARPATH Posted December 6, 2015 Author Share Posted December 6, 2015 (edited) When Beal banged knees with Tucker and he was rolling around holding it, did anyone else's stomach drop as they had thoughts of Gil and Gerald Wallace? That's exactly what I thought of.... So was Otto's defense that good, or was their front court that bad? I was shocked at how bad Len looked out there. I thought he was a great pick for Phoenix. But in light of the Tyson Chandler signing and him being shut down by a team with no front court, I have severe doubts about him. Len has played Ok this season but I think he's a bad fit for Phoenix. Mainly because of the style of play. Edited December 6, 2015 by BRAVEONAWARPATH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor703 Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 When Beal banged knees with Tucker and he was rolling around holding it, did anyone else's stomach drop as they had thoughts of Gil and Gerald Wallace? Nah not really. I've come to embrace the fact that Beal is an drama queen. The falls he takes reminds me so much of RGIII. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade7 Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 (edited) I don't know about "drama queen", but Beal does have the same problem Griffin had in not understanding how to protect his body (which is why he always looks like a circus airialist falling without a net beneath him). He's only 22, so hopefully he figures it out (instead of holding on to that "I'm a teenager and freaking invincible" mindset). Wall figured that eventually as well.

CRobi21 Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 (edited) This 4 guards and a forward lineup is causing fits! Probably not sustainable, but its fun watching these guys get out and run. And a bunch of little pests on D. All 5 arent afraid to switch. Edited December 7, 2015 by STBonecrusher21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade7 Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Very interesting watching this team lately when they've had no choice but to go all in on this small-ball style of play. Trick will be how to not lose this intensity when Gortat comes back, and figuring out how to blend the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRobi21 Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Look like they ran the same play 3 times in a row. Knowing were doubling Dirk, he kicks it back out, swing it over to Wes. Same defensive rotation each time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
