  1. Exerpt:

    >Center Kristaps Porzingis completely rewrote his NBA narrative and silenced critics by being healthy and available for the first time in, like, ever, averaging career highs with 23.2 points per game on 49.8 percent shooting. Among centers, Porzingis ranks third in ESPN’s Player Efficiency Rating behind the leading MVP candidates, Nikola Jokic and Joel Embiid.

    >Please read the above sentence again. Screenshot it. Cut it out and stick it on your refrigerator. Nice things like this — a player in Washington keeping company among the best in the league — don’t happen every year for Wizards fans.

    >Also, forward Kyle Kuzma’s scoring average ticked up another four points, for a career high of 21.2 points per game. With his ability to rebound and stretch the floor (he shoots a touch over 40 percent from either corner beyond the arc), Kuzma should be in demand this summer as an unrestricted free agent.

  2. Fatal underachievement. Fatal, I like that word

    Season was brutal.

    Injuries at the start of the season for Kispert and Delon. Then Beal with covid every other week.Half of the season was played without bench because of all the injuries to starters or rotation players. Beal missed 30 games. That 10 game losing streak was brutal.Every time we got out of slumps be fell back into new one. Somehow we have 34 wins this season.
