Mavericks @ Wizards

Different opponent, same result. Wizards lose again. If this pace keeps up they might not even make it to double digit wins this season. Is Tyler Hansbrough coming out of the draft his year? I've got some good content here:

When will this city ever see this thing again?:

31 years ago...

Whose going to be on this from this year's team?

Some guy in the crowd was yelling at Mark Cuban to buy the Redskins from Dan Snyder haha:

Gil in digital form...

Mark telling that fan he thinks its a good idea...

Jason "I think I'm Michael Jordan from the 1998 Dream Team" Terry shooting a free throw with his eyes closed.

Now it's Dirk's turn...this time with eyes open:

Rick Carlisle: "Is that legal"?

Mark again:

What do the fans want for Christmas?

That works...

I think he played a total of 5 minutes this game...

It was Big Tigger's birthday!

Jamison had a decent game:

Digital Antawn:

This is where Caron spends all his time when he should be practicing...

Everybody Hurts.....

btw, KG is certifiably insane. it's gonna come back to bite him in a bit. soon. like against lebron. OR AGENT ZERO.

Pacers v Lakers 12/2/08

More unlikely, Pacers beating Lakers in season where Lakers may win 70 games or Troy Murphy making buzzer beater? OH, it was a tip-in that makes many senses.

Skeets is King the Merry King

Dwight vs Drago



and this

Skeets is the GREATEST

Wizards vs. Hawks

Different coach same result. The Wizards lose again this time to the Hawks. I the team is de-moralized. Losing two starters is tough. There are a lot of young guys on the team so I will have to agree with Arenas and say that the Wizards will be a lottery team this year. Who's coming out of the draft?

Nosebleed seats this game...

How do they look from far away?

Got bored...

Mike Bibby

Dave Batista

One of the more entertaining parts of the game

I could use a cool $20 mil

Wait they're back

Cold MOUNTAIN

Larry Hughes aka Cold Mountain proves that anyone can hit a LAST SECOND SHOT.

Eddie Jordan Fired

Well it finally happened. Eddie Jordan got fired as the head coach of the Wizards. After a 1-10 start to the season. I am sort of in agreement with the decision. The team just seems plain stale. I think there needs to be a shakeup with the lineup as well. One of my friends mentioned that the Wizards should have traded Antawn Jamison and Gilbert Arenas for Kevin Garnett when Garnett was a free agent a while ago. The free agent group for 2010 seems pretty good. Maybe the Wizards really should rebuild this season and unload some of the guys taking up a lot of cap room kind of like what the Knicks have done.

Gilbert Speaks!

Throwing in the towel already?

We're not even 1/4 way into the season yet. I believe they instituted the lottery draft to deter teams from tanking games. Only time will tell...

Andray GETS THE GASFACE

Nick Young with the GASFACE

Pistons vs. Wizards Preseason

Well I'm back and WAY behind on this post but here goes. The Wizards lost this game. Not much really else to say haha. And I think they are the only winless team still in the NBA. Here we go with might be a loooong season.

CRazy man WITH THEM TWO THUMBS UP

ELTON F*CKING BROWN???

http://www.ridiculousupside.com/2008/7/20/574442/breaking-the-ceiling-summe

"Elton Brown looks terrifying on the floor. In person? He's like a teddy bear. A big friendly teddy bear that you're kind of concerned will eat you." TRUE

"A physical bruiser known for his ability to bang down low and battle with bigs for offensive rebounds(and then turn them back over to the defense), Brown is a physical warrior on the court (hands made out of stone will give that impression). (NOT) Surprisingly, his attitude is a lot more laid back in person. Though people around him say he can be acerbic (what?) when provoked, he genuinely comes off as an easy going guy (maybe because he is, and he's lazy). The confidence is stunning for an undrafted player out of Virginia (GO WAHOOS!!!), who's spent time in the D-League (scrubs), Greece (SPARTA!!!!!), and Israel (JEWSSSS!!!!!!!!!), and is now competing again for an NBA roster spot (it better be an XXXL).

Brown was one of the last cuts with the Knicks in 2006 (ooooooooooh the knicks....), and one of the last cuts for the Lakers in 2007 (Phil felt sorry for him). He's never made it over the hump (he got winded about 1/4 the way through), though, and last year,despite averaging a double double (meats AND potatoes) in the D-League and being leaps (stifle laughter) and bounds (still cant beat gravity) above his colleagues in terms of physical play (slap-fighting) and rebounding (grasping for air), frustration led him to take the money and run... to Israel (WAFFLE HOUSE).

He's back, though, because the goal of playing in the NBA is still so close to within reach (ran out of money). And while that might drive some people completely nuts (or BONKERS!!), for Elton, it's just another regular day at the office.

Summer League days are hard (really?), but they're not unbearable (well then no one would do it then....). He wakes up around 9 or 10 (NO WAY!), grabs something (somethingSSSSSSSSSS) to eat, and heads to the arena for practice (we talking about practice? /iverson). The practices, he says are harder than the players thought they would be, but he's happy with that (makes him hungrier). He's a physical player (LIES!). He likes physical practices. He heads back to the hotel to rest before the game.(BIG SURPRISE!)

yeah im not bitter

A-Rod, Gil Arenas

First story: another one bites the dust. First of all I wonder why the hell don't sports stars sign pre-nuptial agreements??? This happens time and time again. I read a NY Times article a few months ago that featured this one woman who after college at the age of 22/23 got married and then proceeded to married and divorced a total of SEVEN times over the course of the next ten years and never had to and will never have to work a job in her life. Hey I gotta give it to her. She was smart. Those seven guys were not. Come on guys lets be real here. I don't care how caring and nice your girl is. Of course no one wants to think about or contemplate divorce when you're walking that isle but think about it. A failure rate of 54% is the last I checked in the U.S. That is greater than HALF. Seriously. Would you ever embark on an endeavor that has a known failure rate to be greater than 50% without giving it some consideration and buying protection? This is even more important when you have so much to lose say HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS. Oh well I guess to each his own...

In other news: Gilbert Arenas decides to stay with the Wizards for less money. They were talking about this on Around the Horn yesterday on ESPN. Quite true. What's the difference between $111 million and $127 million? My answer: $16 million. I think it was a good move on Arenas' part. He is coming off knee surgeries and in fact one of the guys on ATH even mentioned that he is probably only worth $90 million. Touche. It remains to be seen. Wizards picked up a big man in the draft so hopefully this will help out Haywood. I think the team also needs a pure shooter.

gary? really?

"For Team 2, the best player on the floor (and likely of the day) was clearly Gary Forbes, stringing together one of the best single-game performances (30 points, 7-16 FG, 15-16 FT, 26 minutes) we've seen in the last five years of the pre-draft camp. Forbes was incredibly aggressive putting the ball on the floor with either hand and making very strong moves to the basket, being very physical once there and in turn getting to the free throw line at will. His scoring instincts might be the best of any wing player at this camp, as he makes up for his lack of freakish athleticism with phenomenal footwork and body control, being able to quickly read and exploit angles, or move intelligently without the ball, in turn showing a very good basketball IQ that impressed many people here. Although his perimeter shot wasn't a huge part of his game once again, he knocked down one of his two attempts from NBA range, which leaves optimism in that regard. He's making a strong push for consideration in the early second round or possibly higher."

SUBSTANDARD UVA COACHING STRIKES AGAIN

Game 6: Cavaliers vs. Wizards

Well this is going to be the last Wizards post-game entry for this season. Wizards got crushed in game 6 and have now been eliminated by the Cavaliers from the playoffs for the third straight season. Not sure why Stevenson called LeBron overrated. The game was over midway through the second quarter. The only highlight was when the Papa Johns contestant actually made a three point shot to give the entire arena a free pizza the next day. First time it happened all season. Lots of question marks for the Wizards next season. Should be an interesting off-season.



LeBron


LeBron again

Sea of white didn't help




Oh yeah some guy had a "Princess James" pink t-shirt on.

NBA Playoffs 2008 Round 1: Wizards vs. Cavaliers

Game 3 in Washington, DC @ Verizon Center Wizards vs. Cavaliers. Cavaliers lead the series 2-0. The entire arena is wearing white t-shirts and waving white towels. DeShawn Stevenson is talking trash to LeBron. Gilbert Arenas starts but is ineffective and leaves injured. Mason and Blatche step it up. The crowd chants "overrated" to LeBron. The Wizards win big.



Hey it's Bruce Pearl.


Coaches Mike Brown and Eddie Jordan


LBJ "overrated" haha




LeBron entering after halftime


SOULJA BOY. (thanks southwest)


LeBron trying to figure out what to do...
