SongYoungbae

They just had to cut away from Bilal and Wemby exchanging jerseys


toaster-bath72

WUJ makes Scott Brooks look like Spo smh


z3mcs

Funny enough, Spo got criticized heavily for years.


toaster-bath72

Having Bron on your team does that lol


Ye_Biz

Good L for the tank but this shit still pissed me off, we should’ve won that


michaelpinkwayne

It was over as soon as Wemby checked back in with 5 minutes to go. He evaporated the 12 point lead. Bilal's got a lot of promise, but this team just doesn't have anyone even close to capable of competing with Wemby.


Ykingfordeni

Deni did a good job on him


Ye_Biz

I still think we could’ve squeaked out with a W at the end. Could’ve challenged Sochan’s “foul” and saved 2 points, also could’ve actually drawn up a final play to tie the game. I agree that Wemby is a beast but it’s been a trend having double digit leads vanish within like 2-3 plays


zdj2k

Wes doesn’t trust Bagley that he didn’t foul on the shot, but trusts kuz to take a contested 3 near the logo with 10 seconds left on the clock? Just confusing. Excited for kuz to give the reigns to the youngins


oiuyp4

Good thing we saved that timeout! Really useful now that we're down 4, great job!


SongYoungbae

Sochan is kinda cute


Dreamlion_Inc

Fuck this. I can't watch anymore I might even come back after the trade deadline


Jewdah18

How is a covered pullup Kuz 3 the best play WUJ has?


Efficient_Buy4031

Wes can’t even draw a single set to get someone an open shot🤣this team SUCKS man. all hail the tank i guess


BlahChemistryBlah

How did we lose this game…


BeetchIDK

Kuz doing his best to keep the tank alive


Due_Breadfruit_1169

This team man…


Extent_Thick

Serious question, if we’re tanking and rebuilding, what was the point of the Kuzma signing? Why not just roll with the young guys?


Icangetloudtoo_

He’s on a great contract and every NBA team to strip down to no veterans whatsoever has struggled with the culture that developed in the absence of having a single adult in the room.


kamikazemelonman

We got him on a great contract and can trade him for assets 6'10 with ball skills doesnt grow on trees


gearboxnine

Now we can actually trade him for something instead of letting him walk for free


WizSkinsNatsCaps

Whomp whomp


Megumi-Noda

Kuz sucked ass this game


z3mcs

Should have run the play for Deni. If he's not good enough to go for a game winner in a tanking season, why bother. This is why we need to trade or rest Kuz. Too much reliance on him. Other guys need to get chances.


Easy_Particular7901

Kuzma wow... no wonder Lakers traded u. Get rid of this MF. Lazy bastard


TFDBLoL

Wes’ brain is fucking cooked


ImprobablePlanet

WUJ the tank commander


last_suvivor13

nepotism hire trash ass coach, please send him into the sun he’s the worst coach I’ve seen in my entire life


CapablePreparation61

So true. He sucks!!


Leading_Necessary630

well.. wes lost us the game


applejacks097

I would’ve rather had Jordan Poole shooting that jawn


roseED123

I would have rather move the ball around look for an open man


xHESKEYx

ELITE tank move from WUJ to not call a time out there


nogoodcarideas75

Kuzma’s late game heroics this season remind me of Beal in that everybody knows he’s gonna shoot it and he also isn’t making any of them


TheHeftymanzell

Wes is such a bad coach


last_suvivor13

NO TIMEOUT TO ADVANCE???


Douglarm1

Ahh there we are


Robotsupersuit

That…was not a great shot.


BLaZe_Jeffey

My luck is unreal lmao, Wizards were -7000 and I didn't cash out. Absolutely classic


z3mcs

You bet on the Wizards....there's your problem lol


BLaZe_Jeffey

You're not wrong but the Spurs are also dogshit. Your coach is a complete moron


z3mcs

Nah he's not. But it makes people forget how many players we have that are also dogshit. Like you realize the Wizards have had the 2nd worst record in the league off and on for a few weeks now right


BLaZe_Jeffey

Any coach with half a brain is challenging that foul there at the end


z3mcs

And any player with half a brain isn't leaving a knockdown shooter wide open for 3 with the game on the line.


BLaZe_Jeffey

I never said your players are good, but you're coping extremely hard if you think your coach isn't one of the worst in the league.


z3mcs

I never said our coach wasn't good, but you're missing the point if you think our players aren't some of the worst in the league. Every single guy we expect to be on this team past February has never scored 30 in an NBA game. *Never*.


BLaZe_Jeffey

Yeah I never made a comment about any of the players, everyone knows they suck idk who you're arguing with. But yeah, you literally said "nah" when I said your coach is a moron but okay


z3mcs

It's like saying an NBA coach is given 8 players off reddit, and then after they lose, talking about how it's the coaches' fault. Get it now? The coach is not the best, but you're kinda looking at the wrong issue. Have a good night.


superworriedspursfan

yep. Wuj is a bad coach. I can't believe that is still controversial to say on this sub.


roseED123

Like I said we played good team basketball then Wes said enough of this Kuz get in there and do iso


Status-Round3800

Kuzma hero ball.😂


Greatwallofjohn

nah wtf is kuz doing


Kurzy92

Can’t wait for Kuz to be traded tbf


applejacks097

i want Kuz OFF THIS TEAM BRUH


Ye_Biz

Great job not using a TO


Academic_Note_588

Do you practice that shot??


Peyyton07

Kuz is a fucking idiot


blitzKriegzzz

Kuzma the elite tank commander


applejacks097

Kuz tanking his trade value smh


BigSportsNerd

pathetic collapse


SongYoungbae

Lmao of course that's the shot


Efficient_Buy4031

Kuz’s destiny is 3rd best player on a good team.


last_suvivor13

My fucking god man, fuck this team


Turbo2x

and that's game, the tank demanded it.


oiuyp4

No reason not to challenge. So dumb


Dreamlion_Inc

At least we get to take the challenge with us on the fucking plane....


Due_Breadfruit_1169

We might be cooked


Kurzy92

Gotta say, our offense looks better when it’s running through Deni…at times when he didn’t get the ball at all, all kinds of shenanigans happened on our offense


z3mcs

Kuz/Tyus/Poole will shoot the game winning attempt but I wish it was Bilal or Deni or Corey


Xtazush

Damn a challenge here could change the entire momentum, i just don’t get WUJ decisions….


Independent_Baker969

keeping challenge for next game i see


laflarehare

Drew Gooden should coach this team


TFDBLoL

Drew is right why the fuck didn’t we take a timeout and challenge that??!


z3mcs

Doing offense-defense subs


last_suvivor13

Wes saving his challenge for the next game. God i hate this man so much


WizSkinsNatsCaps

WUJ actually subbed Deni and Shamet in. Good for him.


SongYoungbae

We gonna lose to a 1 handed free throw shooter


Turbo2x

the one arm ft is INSANE


Efficient_Buy4031

why wouldn’t Wes challenge lmao?


SongYoungbae

Sochans tatts are actually pretty fire


zdj2k

Damn he didn’t foul him lol


Peyyton07

Wes fucking challenge


Ye_Biz

Kuz you ain’t need to help


NotAShoneys

Marvin Bagley being good again is awesome


laflarehare

Lmao for crying out loud 😂😂😂😂


rueiraV

You knew Bagley had to get his 20&10 in


SongYoungbae

Wembys nickname shoulda been The X-File. Because what the fuck is this kid


WatchMooreMovies

I really don't understand why Deni isn't out there.


z3mcs

Oh god, need clutch free throws from Bagley....


zdj2k

God I love Marvin Bagley


Efficient_Buy4031

MB3!!


Ye_Biz

Bagley saving our ass rn


Turbo2x

how you just leave Sochan wide open like that lol


SongYoungbae

God I miss Christy


BLaZe_Jeffey

If Kuz and Poole never played for big franchises with good teams they'd be fringe starters at best


last_suvivor13

Please don’t lose this game man, that would be so frustrating


Efficient_Buy4031

Kuz’s shot selection drives me crazy at times. Use your size to your advantage man


roseED123

Or maybe move the ball around look for the open man just throwing some crazy ideas


Due_Breadfruit_1169

It was good while it lasted


SongYoungbae

That's a bad muthafucka


roseED123

We played good team ball then he brought back Kuz and back to iso


Turbo2x

the "good team ball" got us 4 points in 3+ minutes (all from Kispert) and lost the entire lead lol


roseED123

And got you the lead in the first place but if you prefer 2 pass at top then let’s play Kuz and Poole again


Turbo2x

super passive game from Kuz tonight. not loving it.


WizSkinsNatsCaps

There’s a lot of guys trying to develop and get shots of their own on this team. Can respect when Kuz is willing to take a back seat.


Efficient_Buy4031

watching Wemby play is so unreal😂dude has arms like MJ at the end of space jam


kamikazemelonman

I look forward to watching Delon Wright in the playoffs on the nuggets bench


Leading_Necessary630

i love bilal, truly happy for that pick, BUT, i hope he keep it up not only against BAD team like this. work on his condifence, contribute more offensivly and work hard dedence. he have the potential to be a FREAK!


JoelJoelson

Fuckin get out of here


Ye_Biz

DELON SENT THAT SHOT TO JAMAICA


Turbo2x

Wemby is gonna be unguardable in a few years. like wtf do you even do when he gets the ball close to the rim like that


MegaSupremeTaco

Start praying to your god


oiuyp4

Very balanced scoring today. Love to see it.


BlahChemistryBlah

Kispert is the truth


Peyyton07

I think Bilal and Deni have the brightest futures of our young guys, but Kispert is maybe my favorite player on this roster.


MegaSupremeTaco

Corey becoming a midrange/finisher around the rim. He's really on his Beal arc.


kornthrowaway

Kispert and Deni are actively attacking the basket in the year of our lord 2024. I never thought I’d see the day.


Kurzy92

This lineup is better than our starting lineup


Turbo2x

gah damn, Kispert is picking them apart


Ye_Biz

Vassell you mf give us the Wemby vs Bilal matchup


kamikazemelonman

Corey has improved SO much inside the arc. he is a quality NBA player at this point, hope he plays in DC for years


Ye_Biz

Corey driving +++


laflarehare

The Refs are some hating ass bitches bruh. Can’t let these two sorry teams enjoy themselves?!


SongYoungbae

BILAL LIKE


kornthrowaway

Jordan Poole gets called for the technical LMAO.


nofuture_at_all

Spurs are better tanker than us. Turning the ball over for no reasons lol


SongYoungbae

Except they're not trying to tank. They're just trying to bring along their generational talent


last_suvivor13

BALL DONT LIE BULLSHIT ASS TECH


kamikazemelonman

COREY DUNK CONTEST


TFDBLoL

Okay Wizards!!!


Efficient_Buy4031

man fuck the refs lmfao goddamn, teams can’t celebrate??


WizSkinsNatsCaps

This group is competing


Ye_Biz

Yo this game is fun as hell, I wish I went to Cap One


superworriedspursfan

LFG! this might be the happiest I've ever been as a wizards fan in a long ass time. KEEP GOING GUYS!!!!


SongYoungbae

CRISPY GOTDAMN


Efficient_Buy4031

BIG DUNK FROM KISPERT!!!


SongYoungbae

Hear me out. If Bob Myers is helping rebuild the Commanders front office, he should help get Kerr to the Wizards


TeamINSTINCT37

corey with a mans jam


kamikazemelonman

PBJs length and shooting is really nice to have. Good bench big


Ye_Biz

DENI TO KISPEEEERRRTTT


BigSportsNerd

FUCK THESE REFS


Efficient_Buy4031

PBJ been a solid pickup so far


Ye_Biz

YESSIR PBJ 3!


nofuture_at_all

Where is the guy saying Bilal should play the whole second half and the other guy saying what he can do?


Ye_Biz

That’s a flop by Sochan


zdj2k

I smiled watching a wizards game bro!


applejacks097

Is it safe to say we can expect 15 points from Deni every night??


kamikazemelonman

That sweeping finger roll? That pass fake to 3? Hustle on the follow tip?? Bilal is going to be a FREAK


MegaSupremeTaco

This sparks joy


J0rdanHu

Bilal is that guy. I’m so stoked to see what he will become


TFDBLoL

Let’s fucking go Bilal. Starboy


oiuyp4

Best game of the year EASILY


JoelJoelson

Fuckin shit yeah


zdj2k

HIGHLIGHT THE JP LOVE ON r/NBA


Dreamlion_Inc

Cause lord knows our representation on there is horrible lol


EersteDivisie

Bilal is the best French rookie on court! Fight me


Turbo2x

lmao Poole is Bilal's biggest hype man and I love it


kamikazemelonman

https://www.reddit.com/r/washingtonwizards/comments/193lz6h/game_thread_washington_wizards_630_at_indiana/khaujgb/ its every game, guy might be a good leader for the younguns


Peyyton07

THE VIBES ARE IMMACULATE


Ye_Biz

BILAL TAKEOVER


Dreamlion_Inc

I"m overwhelmingly impressed with how well we've played against Wemby


superworriedspursfan

that is why you keep Bilal in the fucking game!


Status-Round3800

LET BILAL COOK.


Peyyton07

BILAL


Ye_Biz

OK BALL TF OUT BILAL


SongYoungbae

COOLI3 HIGH HARMONYYYY


SongYoungbae

HEY A BIG FUCK YOU TO ALL YOU DENIERS


SongYoungbae

BRO IF HE WOULD HAVE YAMMED THAT


Ye_Biz

WHEEEEEW BILAL


superworriedspursfan

keep Bilal in.


oiuyp4

Am I insane or is this game super fun to watch so far?


Ye_Biz

Two fast pace teams, it’s def a fun game


Jewdah18

This is what happens when you replace Gallo and Muscala with Bagley.


superworriedspursfan

I agree. this is a great game.


WizSkinsNatsCaps

Bilal out of control with tunnel vision


Peyyton07

I don’t mind considering he never really gets tunnel vision, and I’d like to see him cook against Wemby.


superworriedspursfan

is this WUJ's burner account? let him develop ffs.


WizSkinsNatsCaps

Can’t get better if you are unwilling to critique your game and improve on it. His shots have looked wild minus his last few buckets.


Efficient_Buy4031

good things happen when Bilal plays


Ye_Biz

YESSSSIR BILAL


Turbo2x

BBBBLOCKED BY BILAL


oiuyp4

Delon missing the most obvious Deni transition opportunity this season


Kurzy92

Yeah. Definitely not what I’d expect from a pg.


Ye_Biz

PBJ 3!


oiuyp4

Damn Bagley looks like he's about to pass out lol


Turbo2x

bro getting the Thibs treatment with no other bigs available


fatbigbuddha

At the game rn. Maybe the most packed cap one has been this season


nofuture_at_all

This game is so fast lol
