That was a great game to watch
Keefe managed the minutes very well
KEEP TRE JOHNSON IN THE FCKIN GAME!! I hate our backcourt (McCollum & Middleton). They are so slow. They are not bums, I just hate watching their style of play, especially with Tre Johnson on the bench. When Tre Johnson was in the game, the Mavs couldnt do nothin with us. He barely plays in the 4th Quarter, now theyre fighting for their lives to win the game. If Tre got the hot hand, keep him in the damn game. Tre & Keyshawn was cookin them….
Wow what a incredible win Wizards this is a game we would've lost last season, Keefe out coached Jason Kidd
Hopefully the Wizards rebuild wont take as long as predicted. The youth can get us there but veteran leadership off and on the court is vital for their progression.
This is why I said for you 2 guys to STOP saying that we will eventually be in TANK MODE because when you say that you’re saying these guys haven’t come back better than they were last season. “F” that lottery pick because we ALWAYS get screwed and NOTHING is GUARANTEED with one and done players.
Kyshawn has LEAPED. Its the eye test as much as the stats. Made dagger plays to ice the game and end to end was the best guy on the court.
George refused to lose! Love to see that
Where is Justin Champagne with Bilal out I figured JC would get more playing time?
I can’t believe Kuzma started over him 😂
We should buy out middleton or McCollum to create space for when Coulibaly comes back
Everyone on the Mavericks bench looked like we lost to the bleeping Wizards? 😂
Middleton is getting kicked out when BC comes back. Hell no George isn’t going to the bench. I’ll fire Keefe myself if he picks Middleton over George 😂
Going to be insane when our lineup is: PG: George SG: Tre Johnson, SF: Cam Whitmore PF: BC C: Sarr! Let’s go!! In 2026-27 slide BC to the 3 with Cam as 6th man and draft Cam Boozer. Champions in 2028 dead serious
I like what I’m saying from George and there’s no reason to have Tre Johnson playing less than 30 minutes a game.
Best player on the team
When Bilal comes back I want to see him at PG.
Can we push for the playoffs this year? We're looking really good out there vs a solid team
George looks good AF!
Love to see the win, but I rather see them competitive while loosing. Need a top three pick for the complete rebuild
It’s all about effort and wanting to! Tre is the most poised 19 year old I’ve seen since Kobe. Legend in the making!!
Can’t sleep on the hornets… they a good young team
It’s about building the blocks slowly. I agree with one of yours guest interviews. Next draft get Darryn Peterson. He will be the star PG/SG. Then later in get the center. I don’t think this draft will have good centers. But imagine. Peterson, k.George, Tre Johnson, Sarrr. The future is bright for Washington 👍
Hello everybody

First W of the season

If George doesn’t fill out like a power forward should, they will still need one. George is close – he does have the temperament. Alex Sarr is also playing well even on limited minutes. Bub struggled but he’s learning. Tre is a keeper. Cam is a keeper. For Dallas Irving will be back soon. Cooper will be great is no Serb. They miss the Landlord. The 2 Vets should come off the bench! Other teams will trade for them if they play well off the bench! If the Wiz win 30 games what happens to the rebuild?
WE BEAT DALLAS! GO WIZARDS!
Wait till we add AJ Dybansta to this core
I like the tie, Ben. Gentlemen, keep upgrading your professionalism. Nice work.
Trade Cam Whitmore. He takes bad shots. Attitude sucks. Don't want it
I usually listen on Spotify. I didn’t realize how young you guys are. I love the show. I hope you guys keep going.
OKC / Wiz lineup
Tre – SGA a 2 pretending to be a 1
Bilal – Dort defensive stopper
KG – JW true pg at point forward
Sarr – Chet Unicorn
Boozer or Quaintance – Hartenstein
Bub – Coruso. & Wings on Wings
Great defense in game 2. GM Rick waives 2 smalls and signs Mac McClung and Bol Bol right now. No George is not remotely a PG.
Swiss Luka
Now THAT was impressive. George was unguardable.
I said it last year, he’s going to be our best player out of our current young core. I’m excited to see what this team will be like once Bilal is back
In his one year of college ball, Keyshawn averaged 7.6 ppg, 2.2 assists, and 3 rebounds. His first NBA season wasn't much better. But he looks for real now.
Super exciting game to watch. Gotta keep building this thing the right way. Also, Bub Carrington is not a starting PG in the league.
