Wiz v. Detroit Tonight

[whitskins]

This is going to be a tough game for our boys and we need it, don't want to have our first three game losing streak of the season.

So let's pile on some fanfare in this thread and give some support to our boys. We need to turn the tide here.

GO WIZ!

[Jimreaper007]

I will be watching tonight and I think we can take Detroit if someone reminds our guys that Billups requires constant attention.

I think the WIz are a lot better than the last time they met...Minus hughes being out.

[tommahawk]

I am still hungover from last weekends games. I really started missing Larry Hughes.
This is going to be a real tough game. All the old Wiz coming back to give us what fer....
gotta work on those FTs

We just got a real good butt-kicking for two days," Washington coach Eddie Jordan said. "Maybe we'll fall under the radar a little bit. It was humble pie."

[LadyNRedskinsfan]

this game will come down to who plays the best D in the 4th....we can win this one.

GO WIZARDS!

[split3clemente]

go wiz, big game

[candeeman]

Wiz have problems with Detriot and without Larry it's going to hard! Hopefully the current Wiz will beat the old Wiz.

[dj_stouty]

The Wiz haven't lost three in a row all season. I don't see them doing it now...

[IMALILTEAPOT]

its gonna be tough. i have a bad feeling about rasheed wallace in this one. guys, its on wb50, so if u dont have comcast u can still see it(IB). if our bigs can get rebounds and not take bad shots(haywood, cough, haywood) then we will have a chance of winning it. MAKE UR FREE THROWS!!!!

[PA Skins Girl]

Lost a heartbreaker to them last time. We need to get this one tonight. Time to bounce back from our latest home-and-home disappointment.

[ShaggySkins]

I would love to see us win this game I just really don't see it happening for us. I don't know who we have to cover Hamilton with Hughes out injured. Dixon is fast enough but too small to effect his shot, Peeler I'm not sure is fast enough or has enough stamina, and Jarvis is not a good enough defender. I hope I'm wrong but I don't see us having anyone to chase him around the court. I think he has a big night and they slow down our offense enough to win.

[ihatedallas]

I would love to see them win this game... ill be paying attention to rich hamiltons "goodyear" hair

[guinness4health]

this is going to be a tough one, but i we need to win this one

[Jimreaper007]

Too many turnovers....it is hurting, but at least they are staying close.

[IMALILTEAPOT]

jamison is gonna have over 35 if he stays in the game the whole time. quote me

[IMALILTEAPOT]

we can win man, this is gil's period.

[IMALILTEAPOT]

damn

[whitskins]

Three in a row???? :banghead: Larry come back!!!

[straightupbeast]

makes friday a must win

[IMALILTEAPOT]

depressing day. maryland and the wiz lost. we play toronto friday, they are easy, but they have a real good record at home. something like 15-6 or something.

[IndianBaller27]

man.... three straight games!! The last three losses all link back to fundamentals... Rebounding, free throw shooting, and plain old common sense. We HAVE to win this Friday.

[IMALILTEAPOT]

i knew something like this would happen. i mean, 3 straight isnt THAT bad, but i knew we would be in some kind of skid. i just cant wait till larry comes back

[LadyNRedskinsfan]

this game will come down to who plays the best D in the 4th....we can win this one.

GO WIZARDS!
like i said...... :banghead:

we couldnt make the stops when necessary. when is larry coming back?

[IndianBaller27]

Yeah, Lady, that was really frustrating to watch... I kept saying, "Come on D, let's get a stop." Then all of a sudden Chauncey makes like 3 straight shots.

billups absolutely KILLED us last night. it was like he couldnt miss if he wanted to.

[IndianBaller27]

billups absolutely KILLED us last night. it was like he couldnt miss if he wanted to.
I hate him now.... I hate him the most out of every player in the league. Just for what he did against the Wiz.... BOTH TIMES! It seems like he never misses in the fourth quarter against us.

[Beast56Redskin]

im really sad to see that larry is our crutch. is he a great player and a great part of this team? absolutely. but with the talent that we have now and the fact that he is a free agent after this season presents this reality as one that could be permanent. there is no reason we shouldnt be winning with or without larry.

[Jimreaper007]

The games are gonna get tougher and hopefully the Wizards can take the All star break and get themselves healthy and refocused. They need Hughes and they need Kwame.

I don't think they really NEED Kwame. He would help a lot, but he can't win us all our games.
