one thing the wizards are doing....

[riskus]

that they hadnt done in the recent years past is blow out bad teams.

In the past they would beat bad teams but struggle to do so. To see them up 20 points in the 4th against the bobcats the day after getting crushed in minnesota impressed me.

The first step to respectability is stomping the scrubs. That's how you let the world know you're not one of those scrubs anymore.

[GolfFreak]

They are playing well this year, I hope they can keep it up. That would be another thing they normally don't do ...

[IndianBaller27]

3rd in the east... oh yeah... I'm going to the Pistons game tomorrow. I'll be wearing a white Jerry Stackhouse jersey, a black Wizards hat, and a Redskins jacket. (I match really well, don't I? :rolleyes: ) So, like, look out for me if you're watching the game.

[pohldaddy]

The reason the Wizards have had a tough time beating bad teams recently is because they were a bad team.......really bad......it is refreshing especially with DC struggling in every other sport, that the Wiz are such an upstart fun team to watch!!

[IMALILTEAPOT]

the funny thing is if we continue to beat the teams that we should beat and beat a couple of teams that are better than us sometimes, we could be in the playoffs with home field advantage! i love the east!

There is no home-field advantage in the NBA. If you're ranked better you just play the first two games at home and then you switch.

yea but if the series goes to a 7th game, the team with the better record gets to play at home.

But we don't have to worry about that.... We'll beat 'em all in 4. And BTW, is that Jerry Stackhouse singing the Star Spangled Banner???

[Jimreaper007]

Apparently Stackhouse is a very good singer according to Ernie G. He sang at some Wizards function last year and brought the house down.

wow... I gotta hear him sing.

i heard it on comcast sports net. he is all right, he sung well at the part when it goes like "land of the free." he does a lot of that "breaking down" singing, if u guys know what i mean. that christina aguleria-whole "ahahahahahaha" thing(lolol). but he cracked on some parts, that was funny.

lol... I can't imagine him singing for some reason. I don't know why. He doesn't seem like much of a singer.

[IndianBaller27]

Well, wee didn't kill the Hawks today. It was way too close for my comfort. We only won by three points..... To the Hawks!

I missed the game, but a W is a W. Did Arenas play?

[riskus]

we cant blow out every bad team every game. Atleast we got the win. A loss would have been devastating.

[LadyNRedskinsfan]

you are right IB, that game was way too close, but like riskus said you cant blow out everyone. why didnt arenas play against the celtics?

[IndianBaller27]

He was feeling sick. He was also sick in the Atlanta game, but he played anyway.

we're such a storied franchise the whole nation is in shock when we dont blow every team out

[IMALILTEAPOT]

:lol1:

[riskus]

nice blow out win tonight. Especially after being down by 11 in the 3rd.

[Jimreaper007]

I am so glad the Wizards are righting the ship. Eddie Jordan and Ernie are doing a fabulous job, but I would love to see a little more defense.

Does anyone here think the wiz are shopping Brown or anyone else?

[riskus]

i dont know if they are shopping brown or not. Its hard to do that when he is always hurt. I really dont know what we could get for him anyway.

[IndianBaller27]

If I were the GM of another team, I would take him in an instant. He has some serious potential. Once we let him go, you know he is gonna become a star on another team.... Probably the Pistons. And Jimreaper is right. We need some serious help on defense.

[IMALILTEAPOT]

we need help on d, but I think the help is on the bench. Once Etan comes back, our d should step up

[GibbsRules!]

Yeah, Etan is gonna bring the energy I was hoping to see from Kwame. Etan plays with a lot of heart!

Yeah, that's what I like about Etan. He plays with heart.

[riskus]

I think a lot of teams would take Kwame in an instant. The problem is I dont think anyone would give up anyone worth while for us to get rid of him.
