We have a lot of passers on the team. I think it's by design. The same way teams are collecting shooters we are collecting play makers.
Wall, Ish, Raul, Cassius, Beal, Troy, Bonga, Deni, Rolo are all really good passers.

I'm assuming the starters are wall, Beal, Bertans, Rui and thomas bryant.

Then second unit is passers position less delight with Deni, Troy finally having their squad to run. Add in Rolo for screens and assisting off ball movement. Then the other two spots is Bonga, robinson, Ish and Mo.

I still question our defense and rebounding at the four and five. My ideal would have been a tandem of precious achiuwa and onyeka. Which is funny cause the heat got precious along with Bam so their interior D will be good. Both guys nigerian so they will co exist.

I think if guys talents are not restricted we can be a good team. I expect we will be driven by how good rui, troy, Bonga, Deni become. I actually think they are pretty good already and need to be given a chance to play their games. And they picked them because they all have shown to be able to make huge leaps.

Nope... I think Bonga starts or Brown.

Bertans is the 6th man

My DMV friends, ya'll feel the same way? I didn't know the emotional attachment DC had with John Wall. I never knew.

Yes. He wasn’t as great as his top pick status, but dude is A1 with regards to athletes DC loves. Not Washington, but DC. nikkas call it DC.

He lived here, grew up here, partied here, gave back, etc. Dude loves DC and we love him back. I wouldn’t be surprised if he didn’t sell his house.


As for this trade, it feels like a Grunfeld move.
