    At least we don’t harbor and celebrate someone that beats their wife and traumatizes their kids.

  2. I appreciate Kuz’s hustle and leadership man. That dude is out there fighting. We have him at a great contract too. He’s been awesome for us and one of the only handful of great things about this shitty season.

    He’s also personally lost us two games with the last possession, which only adds to my love and appreciation* of the man.

  3. DollarLate_DayShort

    Kuz absolutely should be taking that lost shot there… but he does NOT need to be bringing the ball up lol

  4. MrBuckBuck

    Classing Wizards.

    Not entering Kispert, not subbing in Deni (who had a good game overall, benching him in the 4th).

    Most important thing – keep Poole in the game – the worst +/- player in the NBA, and probably throughout history.

    P.S: Gafford had a good game, though he should be more careful with the friendly fire.

  5. Substantial-Lab-5647

    SMH. Beat by the refs, Miles “wife beater” Bridges, and Brandon “accessory to murder” Miller.

  6. iWearSkinyTies

    Poo, Tyus and WUJ have no business being starters in this league

  7. Let me guess, “Jordan Poole sucks”, “get him off the team”, yada yada. Onto the next one

  8. losing to the wife beater and Bilal possibly being injured sucks. Great game from Kuz despite the failed attempt to tie it, though.

    Get well soon, Bilal. You’re our only hope.

  9. Hornets are so unserious that we had to pull off a masterful 4th quarter tank job just to lose this lol

  10. I guess I can’t be too mad but it’d be nice not to blow a double digit and have a W once in a while.

  11. eternal_student78

    Screw Miles Bridges, and screw Jordan Poole for being all friendly with him.

  12. TheSiamang

    I haven’t really been watching many wizards games these past couple of years so apologies if this has been said before. But goddamn the broadcast production is horrible. Chris miller and drew gooden are terrible to begin with but having to deal with their constantly fluctuating mic levels is headache inducing. At points Gooden’s voice level goes from inaudible to blasting in your ear all within one of his inane ramblings. And does Miller have his mic in his mouth or something? Any time he raises his voice it becomes a grating distortion. And do the producers know how to properly mix the announcers and the crowd noise? Watching this team is already an assault on the eyes but having to deal with the terrible broadcast production makes things 10x worse

  13. DrBeatusMeatus

    As a true fan of basketball, I believe all NBA games should end after the 3rd quarter.

  14. kornthrowaway

    Lizards really finding creative ways to rack up the losses this early in the season, you’ve gotta hand it to em.

  15. InGenNateKenny

    There was a lot of hope that this team would be fun. But they aren’t even that.

  16. CommunicationMain467

    The problem with this team to me is that if they played to win they would probably be 5-8 or 6-7 so basically mid, so we have to actively try to lose fucking games to not get to that point, I feel like this was another one of those games wes went out of his way to make sure we lost

    Edit: If I’m right that means this front office should be able to get us into the playoffs in less than 4 years 🙂

  17. Notorious_Beebs

    WUJ a real life wizard with how he makes these 20 point leads disappear

  18. 35chambers

    if tyus doesn’t miss the lob to bilal that’s a win

  19. laflarehare

    Them boys looked pissed after that loss. Their coach is god awful haha. Hands down!

  20. We need more guys on this team who can get their own shots and take good shots and get buckets. Kuz got 28. Poole got 24. As was said before the season even started…where are all the rest of the points coming from? Getting 15 points a game aint cuttin it. We’re not gonna win games with no consistent 3rd scorer who can get 25 or 30 on occasion.

  21. I still don’t think you guys understand what a tank is. Losing today was pretty big given how bad Charlotte has been

  22. Nick_Argue

    WUJ is aiming to be one of the worst to do it. His tenure will be summed up by MULTIPLE blown leads. Just horrible.
