Wizards & Pacers(12/9/03) @ TV: Local, NBATV Time: 7:00 eastern Place: Consecon Fieldhouse ------------------------------- Probable Starting Line-ups: Steve Blake/Kenny Anderson Larry Hughes/Reggie Miller Jarvis Hayes/Ron Artest Christian Laettner/Jermaine O'Neal Etan Thomas/Jeff Foster ---------------------------- Wash: Gilbert Arenas-out Jerry Stackhouse-out Indiana: Jamal Tinsley-out Jonothan Bender-out ------------------------------ Keys: Wash- Kwame Brown was benched a game ago, along with Christ Whitney, and Brendan Haywood, out of all of them, Kwame Brown played the best, making two clutch baskets, including one that sent the game into overtime...he will again need to come of the bench strong, he looks more comfortable with Blake running the offense, because Blake sees the court, the other pt. guards Washington has are shott first. Kwame plays solid D, but he doesnt chase boards. Our other big men, Thomas, Haywood, and L8ner need to keep Indy of the glass, and Larry "I don't pass the ball" hughes needs to step up big for any hope of winning this game. The Wiz shouldnt look for much from Jarvis Hayes, who has been struggling as of late, he has possibly the league's best defender on him in Ron Artest. Indy- Two Words: Jermaine O'Neal, he needs to hit the boards, score, and do everything he can to keep Wash. out of it, Artest will need to D up Hayes and not give him any looks because he is starting to find his stroke again. If all that happens, then there will be to much for the Wizards to handle. --------------------------------- My Prediction: Too much for the Wiz to handle, Indy takes it 89-80 --------------------------------- Official Preview HERE
at the half, Kwame Brown has 11 pts on 5-5 shooting in 16 minutes, i wonder if consistency is finally setting in in him, the score is 43-36, the Wizards have been hanging in there all game, but the pacers went on a run to end the quarter
Looks like the Wiz are going to lose, Kwame was really our only bright spot tonight, Dixon killed us, HE SHOOTS TO MUCH, The wizards dont get any calls, Kwame 17ts, 6 boards, 6-8 from the floor, 5-7from the line,...final score: 93-79...i will post the box score, recap once it is up box score Game Recap

Lol i know i cant blame Dixon, but he just kept shooting tonight, and the wizards will be a better team once they get stack and arenas back.
