To be honest, this is the first team he's been a part of that isn't requiring him to carry the majority of the offensive load while still letting him play to his strengths.

And I love him

He looks good when he's using his height and length to take pop a shots over guys heads, he looks good when he's batting in lay ups. Stronger bigs tend to make him fall down, and he's a less enthusiastic rebounder than some guards on the wizards.
He sometimes shadows opposing 3-5s realy well, but sometimes he's vapor

Trapping him works really well, he can be frightened into picking up his dribble really quickly. But all in all I thought he could have been a bust, so good for him for taking advantage of washington clearing the roster so he could get a lot of minutes. Keep watching the Kevin Garnett tape

I'm happy the raptors keep winning. But even with a championship in hand, I've still got the gitters thanks to years of them doing well in the regular season but being awful in the playoffs.

They did fairly well last year when Kawhi sat during the season, so it's not like their success should be entirely unexpected. Their ceiling is obviously lower but the east looks a bit more open than I expected so they could easily do some damage in the playoffs.

I guess they're 3-3 with Melo but 1 win was against OKC and the other two were against Chicago.

So uhh. I think he's playing pretty decently but maybe "Apology Form" is a bit premature.

I'm not sure, I can't find any info on this. SuperSonics were an expansion franchise that year but still had decent attendance.

edit lol Wilt was 8-30 on free throws that game and 38% on 11.4 FTA/G for the season

Rudy Gay got a Christian Wood Trademark SlamaJam straight to the face last night. It was brutal. Christian Wood is a bench warrior. He's the best garbage man other than Ben Simmons in the NBA (Not really but I'm pretending it's true so that I can be happy)

Wizards are the weirdest team because when you look at the numbers of their rotation players they should be okay but they're just terrible.

Yeah, it really is strange. KAT said they are really buying into the "Nobody Believes In Us!" thing when going to other courts, and while I don't usually subscribe much to that kind of stuff it seems like it's making a difference.

I mean, they are 7-2 on the road, the only better road teams are the Lakers and Bucks. Home record: 3-7, same as Chicago. Really weird to be one of the best road teams in the league and also one of the worst home teams.

The Wizards stats are almost entirely due to their league-best pace and John Wall will probably gum that up (his teams have always had middling pace iirc) so define "fix" in the proper way and you'll be right

Maybe the home crowd needs to stop believing in them. Just replace the logo with each opposing team as an experiment.
