    He needs to be traded. Just show him this game. It'll be the one good game this month.

    Washington seems like a good team without an identity.

    The 3rd qtr was huge to come out and play so well after giving up the big lead in the 2nd.

    Good bounce-back win - though it only makes me more annoyed by that egg they laid in Philly.

    Mason Plumlee has recorded his team-best 12th double-double, already matching his previous high for a season (2014-15 with Brooklyn).

    Yeah we are tied with Houston in road wins, but have 9 more road losses. I guess Houston could lose their next 9.....

    LuckyShot is right. In the West, we rank #9 in overall standings (.432), but only #11 in road trip standings (.360).

    9 rebounds in 17 minutes for Vonleh and a MASSIVE +25 in those 17 minutes.

    He's the secret weapon for the 2nd half of the season....don't want teams scouting him much and losing the element of surprise!

    He's not starting because this is only his second game back from an injury. He was out for like a month. And he was killing it until he was injured, but he has some pretty significant leg problems.

    Pretty good win. Even though you'd figure the Blazers would come back strong after the debacle in Philly ... too many guys on this team who I think have a positive sense of pride ... Washington, to me, is one of the worst teams for us to try to match up with, and it was on the road. Honestly, why the Wizards aren't better is so hard to understand.

    But it's games like these that make me dream about how good we could be with one more decent scorer or an all-around inside presence.
