Didn't see last night, but caught the last weeks games on the NBA freeview.. (as stated before, totally casual Bullets fan) So, whos the Bryant kid? Looks like a breath of fresh air from my couch! Hope Ernie doesn't get any ideas.. 

 

We claimed him off waivers in July, he was with the Lakers previously. Played college ball at Indiana. I agree, probably the only bright spot this year.

Find a reason to shut down Beal too.  Tank for Zion.

 

This was the first time we'd been 10 games under .500 in December in a while.  First chance to shut Wall down for that long to fix something he was capable of playing through.  I'm actually not that broken up about it because the season was already lost and it means he won't get traded.  At least not until the offseason.

 

That Trevor Ariza trade looks pointless at best in hindsight.  They need to find the money for him this summer to justify making the young for old swap.

This latest injury makes Wall essentially untradeable for the near future.  Meaning there is no good way of blowing this team up.  We're stuck with this core, or stuck with a worse version of it if Ernie gets desperate and decides to trade Beal. 

 

This is starting to feel like Gilbert Arenas' big contract after his knee injury.

Not necessarily a bad thing that it can’t be blown up until the off-season. Gives Ted a chance to fire Ernie before that time. 

Unfortunately, it would be great to start down that path now by trading Beal, collecting assets and really tanking.

Beal is only worth trading for a top five pick.   Otherwise keep him and use him only enough to keep the tank on track.  Need ammo to go up and get Zion.  If Beal doesn't get you that, then keep him.

Beal is the only one of the three worth keeping long term for any rebuild plan.
