after the season, which eight players do you think the wizards will protect? Kwame and Haywood(becuase they exercised the options) Gilbert Arenas Hayes Jared Jeffries Jaun Dixon Jerry Stackhouse(if he isnt injury plagued this year) Etan Thomas(they need another big man to protect) they wont protect: Steve Blake Christian Laetnner Jahidi White
I think they'll keep Blake, hes been playing really well in preseason and I'd be surprised if he got let go.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting VAs Finest:</div><div class="quote_post">well if tey kept blake i thnk it would be jaun that would be unprotected</div> Why? They can both have roster spots, considering Juan plays SG a lot (more than pg).
well i dont think they would let etan thomas go because he is one of the few PFs they have and he is a monster on the glass
I started a thread a while back about the expansion draft here's a link to it. http://www.justbball.com/forums/showthread.php?p=99213 I was asking people for their protected lists for their favourite teams as well as who they would pick out of the remaining players if you were the 'Cats' Gm. No one has put Washington Down there yet. Check it out.
I thought i would bring this thread back, since they are starting to pop up over other teams forums...here is an update of who i think will be protected Current Roster: Gilbert Arenas Steve Blake Torraye Braggs Kwame Brown Mitchell Butler Juan Dixon Jarvis Hayes Brendan Haywood Larry Hughes Jared Jeffries Brevin Knight Jerry Stackhouse Etan Thomas Chris Whitney Christian Laettner PROTECTED: Kwame Brown Gilbert Arenas Larry Hughes Jerry Stackhouse Steve Blake Jarvis Hayes Brendan Haywood Jared Jeffries or Brevin Knight(toss up there) NOT PROTECTED Juan Dixon Christian Laettner Etan Thomas Chris Whitney Torraye Briggs Mitchell Butler
etan thomas is big, i saw him play against the bulls, he is very active and gets a lot of rebounds, or if he doesnt, he'll keep the ball alive...but then again, this is against the bulls...

protect:Gilbert Arenas Jerry Stackhouse Larry Hughes Steve Blake Juan Dixon Etan Thomas Kwame Brown Jarvis Hayes Get rid of the rest.
