I mean, these dudes think they can have it both ways, get all the $$$ and play wherever they want. He could've walked after next year but he wanted an extension :manny:
Beal has already said if he wanted to leave, he would not be in DC right now

He wants to be here and give it another run with Wall and a couple of pieces being added this summer and the improvement of these young guys

Sound sound sound
I won’t lie and say I watch wizards games :russ:

but I feel like walls style of play kinda hurts beals game

so him coming back will still have the wizards being a bad team

a GM AND NEW OWNER to add on to that list
We got a new GM who's done what one can do with no assets beyond drafting Rui. We got a stable of young guys who are getting a lot of playing time. Unfortunately, we have the worst defensive roster in the NBA but one of the best offenses.

And I have my issues with Leonsis but the guy has spent money. His problem was keeping Grunfeld for soooooo long.

Wiz aren’t THAT far off. Gettin rid of Ernie was a start. I’d try to get a better coach too. I like y’all young players and I think Wall/Beal can still work.

I'm not looking at the wins and losses column. I'm looking at the fact he took a leap. And the players had him ranked high. But all star is fan ball cupping and stroking and coaches who should know something but do whatever. I'm not stressed about one exhibition game. The fact is if you have an all star level player whether you have him make the game or not you still got one. And those make better value. Beal is legit with some kinks to be worked out. Wall has some too. But you can't expect 6 4' 6 5' guards to win games for you. In their positions they are elite and at full peak untouchable by any guard tandem in the east. Let.them show growth and put backbones and engines that help teams win among the forwards and center position.
Already the second team is solved. They were putting numbers up. Ish, now. Napier, Troy, bonga who's in the first unit, Bertans, Wagner, Thomas Bryant who was first unit but a weak defender give you enough to figure out second unit. First unit issues is mostly two way players at the 345 so they can keep it up while defending at a better rate. They need two more starters and they are sorted if everyone is healthy.

Wall Beal almost made conference final. But you don't expect a dominant guard to do anything against a dominant 3 4 or 5. So LeBron giannis and em will have matchups against scrubs who they will dominate. The problem isn't wall and Beal. When they had competent forwards and Cs like ariza, Martell for spacing.nene, Gortat. They went far. They just need muscle behind them.

Why not?

Doesn't mean anyone can do it.

Discounting high performance seasons just due to bad teammates is bullshyt.


Why is it?

you’re not playing in high pressure games or moments. It’s just empty stats


Lebron has taken worst rosters in the east to the playoffs

wizards have like what 19 wins
