This game really demonstrates that while Deni can be excellent running in transition, he can’t run a halfcourt offense when the defense is set and knows what to expect. Once Denver made their adjustments at the half they just started forcing him to go left and he couldn’t get any of those layups he was making early on. The improvement is certainly nice to see in a game like this but his stubbornness of trying to run the same play over and over, giving up 4 turnovers in a row and forgetting his defensive assignment on MPJ was ugly.
Young guys played well, KP balled out, and we took a L for the tank I really can’t complain
KP scored 25 points efficiently and we saw good things from our young players 🙂
One loss closer to Wembanyama baby
Oh god we have San Antonio next
#THE TANK CONTINUES
Fantastic L boys 👏 Vic Wemby szn
There are gonna be plenty of Johnny Davis tomorrow, I guess.
What really killed the Wizards tonight were mostly the 3PT we couldn’t make, and ones free ones we gave away.
It was more fun to watch than usual.
Honestly enjoyed this way more than what I saw yesterday. Just please shut down Beal and Kuz for the rest of the season and more minutes for the young guys
Oh we played tonight
cool
30 points and 25 points on great shooting in back-to-back games for KP. He’s my favorite among our older players. I hope he stay with us.
Lame
At least there was a bobble head
KP averaging 27.5 ppg on nearly 60% FG and 40% 3PT over this back to back, along with racking up the losses for the tank is a W.
Nice to see:
– Turbo on the uptick
– Johnny Davis didn’t shoot well but the confidence is way up
– Almost saw a QJ alley oop if the pass wasn’t too high
– J Crew Jesus showing the stepback
So… we shutting down Beal (who looked like a Sith Lord on the bench) and Kuz these last remaining 9 games?
this team need pg so bad
Anyone want a porzingis bobble head? Got one at the game and don’t need it
Yo, so they had Deni defending Jokic in purpose? It was… less of a disaster than I would’ve expected, tho Jokic obviously still Jokicked.
G-Wiz isn’t happy he wants to see change.
Only 2 games ahead of the magic for 5th!!
Yeah but did you see that JD layup?
Wiz cannot hit 3 pointers. Such a terrible team construction.
It’s hard to win when the other team makes 10+ more 3s than you.
Johnny Davis showing flashes of being a possible 9-10th man for next year?
