Finally back home but without our fallen hero. However, the Wiz are also without their Wall and hero. (See what I did there?)

they have been fairly inconsistent since Wall has been out , Beal especially was only avging like 14pts in the 5 games before the 51pt blowup he had last game. Beal is the only player who really can do his thing without Wall, most the others accustom to capitalizing on Wall penetration. we were definitely tired last game so looking for better energy and some of that D we played against Sixers, lock in on Beal n keep ole friend Marcin n his back taps off the glass.....
We got this !!! :)

Every year the Wiz break my heart. Before the season I look at the teams and standings and decide, hey, the Wiz have one of the best rosters in the East. They will be the #2 or #3 seed and will make the ECF and maybe even the Finals. And then they get injured or just plain underperform. I don't really get what the root cause of their chronic underachieving is. They just don't seem to put together dominant seasons despite a nice roster full of talent and veterans.

No reaction to him from the crowd. I think for the most part he's passed from "hated" to "forgotten."

But not me. I still hate him. :twisted:

Really like how the Suns are playing to open this up. Points from all around the court, and good defense.

19-8 before we see the first bad possession by the Suns. Keep your focus, guys.

On offense. :) Some of that defense was pretty horrible even though the Wizards weren't scoring.

Was a much better start than I thought we would have though that is for sure.

Jackson and Monroe accounting for all the Suns assists to start. All suns starters have scored, and we are doubling up the Wiz early. 24-12, Suns have 10 baskets with 5 assists, and (I think) 3 putbacks.

Bender just checked in and that steal was right in front of him and he didn't even bother running down the court. Not a good look.
