Washington Wizards Season Thread - Abandon All Hope Ye Who Enter Here

This is a weird team unless somebody gets moved.

That's pretty much it. Nothing much else to report.

Well that was interesting. What did you think? Trezz was a beat as usual. Kuzma was all over the place as usual. Defense still needs work but looked better. Beal was pretty efficient. Bertans was kind of just out there. Dinwiddie looked good but that's a vet playing against young guys. Still nice to see him coming back from injury.

Very Interested To See How This Season Plays Out.

And What Becomes Of Beal.

Y’all are gonna hate this but since the goal is and has been mediocrity:

Methodical Management who you got tonight!?

I think the Wizards lose to the Raptors by 10. Third quarter will do them in after a strong first half. Beal's going to have 24 points on 8-21 and he'll only hit one three.

Wiz win tonight

It’s tough. It’s a winnable game, but we struggled against Toronto last year and there are a lot of factors stacked against the Wizards tonight: new coach, new system, new players vs. a team at home with continuity.

The fan in me says Washington. The realist says Bertans goes 1-6 from 3, Kuzma goes 3-12, and we lose by 8, because that’s the most Wizards outcome.

37 points given up in a half?! Felt like we gave up 30+ a quarter last year

We somehow give up this huge lead and lose right?

I’d say no, because Toronto looks atrocious right now, but we lost an early season game like that against Orlando last year, so I sadly can’t rule out the possibility.

They're trying their hardest.

Wayyyyyyy too much Beal iso right now.

Always good to get the first W out of the way. What a relief.

Beal 23 points on 7-18 and he hit only one three, but I was way off on the result since they won by 15. Crazy to watch them get up by damn near 30. Didn't see that coming at all.

Anybody going to home opener ?

Thinking About It, Lowers At 30 Bucks.

At risk of underestimating them 2 games in a row, Pacers are going to win tonight. Beal gets more points - 37, makes 4-11 from 3, Wizards lose by 8.

Kuz looks Kuzzy, KCP doesn't get a chance to hit a clutch 3, and Dinwiddie gets 2 layups, a handful of free throws, and turns the ball over a lot uncharacteristically. Gafford tries some pull up jumpers.

Bertans goes 3-6 from 3 and there's a lot of head scratching about where the defense went.

Turner blocks Deni, Neto, Kuz & Gafford. Sabonis goes off for 34. TJ McConnell picks apart and outhustles the Wizards.

Lot of talk after the game about poor shooting.

The team's newfound depth will get a real test tonight:

You’ve Got The Reverse Jinx Going Well.

You’ve Got The Reverse Jinx Going Well.

Or I'm just really bad at predictions with this team

I didn't even realize there was a real chance Beal wasn't going to play. That was a wild game!

Best time I’ve had at a Wiz game in a few years. The crowd chanting MVP for Trezz was great
