    Anyone who can shoot would "look good in a Lakers uniform".

    In before HCP's "I guess you have the 'Around the NBA' thread on ignore, huh, FAMS?" post...

    (and for the record, I think it was because we brain-farted a bit down the stretch and Morris went unconscious in the 4th/OT.)

    They scored more points than us (or one more).

    That determines the final outcome. For a long-time poster, you don’t know how this works?

    IDK? Also if you look at it a little differently, the Wizards are winless in regulation.

    I’m at a bar so not paying attention too much but butler out here balling on golden stage. And he plays so unselfish despite what his attitude might be. Is he a blazer yet

    John Wall is out here taking credit for teammates making a shot because he made the pass, saying "that's me". Unselfish play, but a selfish attitude that's not conductive to winning basketball.

    If Butler would stay, I'd do it. He just won't stay. I'd rather go after an Otto Porter Jr. (someone who's better at playing without the ball, a better shooter, a good defender in his own right, a better locker room presence, and someone who can't just bolt after a year).

    I don’t want any Wizards. Gutless, heartless, blaming others, it’s a disaster in DC.

    They'll probably keep him since hes younger and won't make as much as Porter after this year.

    I don't think that's Otto Porter's fault at all. I think they're not utilizing him enough and he's getting frustrated because they've pigeon-holed him and stunted his development. I think that's exacerbated by the attitude their backcourt brings. I'd love Otto Porter Jr. in a Blazer uniform.

    I also think Wall and Beal are so freaking selfish, complaining that other guys want shots while they’re shooting a bunch of ineffecient garbage. Weve heard Moe complain about attempts once but we never heard CJ and Dame complain about it.
    Kelly O or Otto would be good, if you have a shooter like Otto maybe you should feed him and let him get into a rhythm.

    Is it me or is he freezing out Towns? Repeatedly ignoring KAT open to pass to others or dribble himself
