My fear is that Randy Wittman basketball becomes more evident in this series and we start bricking and forcing long twos.

I think Book can matchup with Scola

Turner is a turnover machine, we gotta pick his pocket any chance we get.

Lance, PG and Turner have stretches where they just commit so many mistakes, it makes me impressed with how Wall/Beal didn't flinch vs. the Bulls and kept turnover numbers real low :leon:

Wall is going to break through the Pacers defense and have Hibbert in foul troubles. Gortat is going average double double in this series. Expect Hibbert to be useless and get a 30 minute break on the bench. I don't see any match up advantages that Pacers over the Wizards. I see this series fall in Washington favor

We're really going to see how good Washington's Offense is. If they can beat Chicago like they did and then put up points on Indy... that will be some impressive shyt.

They should look at what ATL did with their floor spacing as well because they have the ability to put a lot of shooters out there on the floor around Wall. I'm hype for this series brehs.

:lupe:

I fear Randy Wittman basketball returns with hoisting long twos but the Bulls series was strange in that the Wiz were swinging the rock and getting great shots :patrice:

I'm expecting the collapse and Indy to just run away since that's what being a Wizards fan is all about... having the team collapse in front of you :manny:

The Wizards have been beating great teams all year, what we lacked before was consistency. Ever since we got an actual bench we've been better, and trending upwards as they've gotten more familiar each others' games.

Looking at the Hawks-Pacers series, the Hawks literally won every single game in which they scored more than 88 points.

Seeing that trend over an entire series tells me that when we play efficiently and if we can attack the Pacers defense the way we attacked the #1 Defense Bulls, (and averaged 95ppg), we have a great chance of taking the series.

I see that 7 year losing streak in Indy coming to an end tomorrow. And if that happens I see a lot of people changing their tune mighty quick. My only question is after the series will they give us the credit or say the other team wasn't good enough ...for the second straight series.

Wiz in 6.
