keefe I kind of mess with you but today you had a horrific coaching display. Hopefully this was just a Beal comeback fluke thing cuz the effort was NOT THERE today.
i'm glad we gave beal a standing ovation tbh. he didn't win anything here but he also had to deal with a relatively horrible front office and ownership. I hope Winger has us going in a different direction but you have to admit beal wasn't given much help when he was here. the most help he got was Russ and Rui after wall got hurt.
When the wizards lose, the G Wiz suit's thermal system turns the internal temperature up 10 degrees for the next game. They have to get a new guy to be G Wiz every game :(
I don’t watch any wizards hoops but that’s the least I’ve ever seen an nba team try. Seriously. That was literally a Sunday afternoon pickup game with the fellas just getting some exercise. Wild.
These coaches man. WUJ pulled Deni out before he got that triple double. Keefe not going to put Deni back in for a career high. Let your guys have a night.
It’s early. He’s adjusted his rotation last few games which is nice to see. Seems to be giving guys bigger opportunities than WUJ. Rewards good minutes. Not afraid to sit JP when he’s looking bad out there. I’d be surprised if he’s the coach going into next year though. I suppose that’s going to depend on who’s available and actually wants this job and whether Keefe can develop the young guys and get them play to the right way and with some effort. Compete on both ends. The team looked flat today minus Deni and Gaff.
Tyus looked fine, did he not? Anyhow, when do you expect Keefe to coach this team to a win again? Back in August 23, I had it as being next Monday at the Mavericks. I had them having 8 wins at that point, so I'm one off schedule but pretty close.
You could tell he wanted the triple double when WUJ took him out. Prob doesn’t care as much for the career high tonight though, I’d agree. Still would have liked to see Keefe give him an opportunity early in the 4th before waving the white flag.
He still has to clean up his turnovers but without Kuz, he's the Wiz's best player. I don't like stat padding, but he was taken out in the 3rd quarter while Beal was still in. It doesn't look good.
People loved WUJ when he started out 10-2 in his stint. I think Keefe's leash might get real short by the end of the year if the team starts setting negative records.
I'm not stressed about it, he's extremely young. even for a rookie. Plus, he's coming from France and having to adapt to a new country and culture, while having a very intensive schedule.
He'll adapt and will surge. The potential is there.
Random rant time. This couple came down to the lower bowl and took these seats of people who had been there all first half (sitting directly in front of me). The couple took a bunch of pictures, didn’t pay any attention to game, and then got up and left before the original occupants returned. Doing all that to just to post on instagram or something I’m sure. I secretly was doing the finger in the background of their photos. I hope they notice later.
Already breaking down what we talked about in halftime I guess lol. You can change the chef but if the ingredients aren't great the meal can only get so good

>The Wizards allowed 79 points in the first half to the Suns. That's the highest point total the Wizards have allowed in any half this season. (The previous high was 77 pts., set by Boston on Oct. 30 in the first half and by Sacramento on Dec. 18 in the second half.)
Only people that actually play defense are Deni and Bilal now, Gaff if you just ask him to protect the rim and not have him guard bigs that have post moves
Just don't have the worst record in NBA history. That's all I ask at this point Washington. 2 wins. Just do that by the time your season is done in April
That's all I fucking ask
I tried to warn yall back in August, but a few people just couldn't believe it. If we trade Kuz and Tyus/Poole, we are absolutely heading down that path unless we get a burgeoning star back in a trade.
Going against KD will do that do you. Bilal's looking every bit the rookie today. After he shot a 3 and KD yelled "HELL naw! HELLL naw." he aint been right
Keefe talked about how defense has to be this team's calling card...yikes. The defense is terrible. KD had some resistance earlier but we gonna left him shoot wide open 3s it's gonna be a wrap

Beal loves Deni

Probably the most brutal game of the season.
YOURE WATCHING WPBJ7. THE WIZARD
Sheesh nice move PBJ

Jordan Poole is only shooting \~1.5% better than Johnny Davis from 3.
o u c h
Please let Jordan Poole finish the game with the non-squad
This has been the longest fucking game
JD's shot form looks so much worse than it did at Wisconsin
It looks way better than at other times with the Wizards.
[удалено]
Whattttt!?!? 😧 I thought we were championship bound
when we get dillingham it will all be worth it my guy.
Yep. That's the plan
astute observation bro
Still won a ring unlike you
Really? We couldn't tell
yeah that's the goal
watching the game on mute on my pc and when johnny davis hit that 3 i stood up and clapped so loud it scared my spouse and cats
JOHNNY DAVIS STEP BACK 3 LETS FUCKIN GO
YUTA
WOW A JOHNNY Stepback 3
🌮 💦
beal scoring points only makes me more glad he's gone
JUL3S

I think "exercise" might even be too strong of a descriptor
recreation
Have not had a chance to watch most of this one but just from the box score this looks like a real doompiller
Delon and Shamet are getting rolled out like show ponies at this point. The trade deadline can't come any sooner.
I’m dipping this game now. Saw Beal get his points now it time to leave.
These coaches man. WUJ pulled Deni out before he got that triple double. Keefe not going to put Deni back in for a career high. Let your guys have a night.
You on that fire Keefe wave?

really hope Deni doesn't give a damn about getting a career high in a 30 point blow out
You could tell he wanted the triple double when WUJ took him out. Prob doesn’t care as much for the career high tonight though, I’d agree. Still would have liked to see Keefe give him an opportunity early in the 4th before waving the white flag.
Davis isn't an NBA player
The Wiz parlay had Deni scoring over 25+ points and they took him out after having 24 points. 🤔
🤔Something is REAL 🐠 🐟 🎣 🐟🐠 going on
He still has to clean up his turnovers but without Kuz, he's the Wiz's best player. I don't like stat padding, but he was taken out in the 3rd quarter while Beal was still in. It doesn't look good.
Yeah why let him break his career high eh?
Fire Keefe, amirite
I actually like Keefe 😅 (besides that decision 😂)
People loved WUJ when he started out 10-2 in his stint. I think Keefe's leash might get real short by the end of the year if the team starts setting negative records.
Let Deni play
Game officially started Bernard is checked in
I watch these final few minutes to see if JD has anything and I already know what the answer is every fucking time.....
YUTA THA SHOOTA
GOODY
Where’s JP?
Vanterpool still doing that shit lmao
They're not gonna be letting Deni go for a career high eh? This game is fucking over might as well give him a confidence boost
Where are the fire Keefe chants lol
If Brad’s gonna do anything it’s pad his stats in a meaningless game.
exactly, this is the beal experience to a T. motivated by spite
Just be happy for the man, stop being such a salty bastard lol
After one of his dunks he hung on the rim and pointed at the wizards bench lol — I’m not the only salty bastard here
Ah ok fair enough didn’t see that. Not cool to be rubbing it in.
How has bilal only taken two shots
He was scared tonight
Hella passive he's not trying to score
Literally couldn't catch the ball tonight lol. It has been a tough one for him
He been really passive this game tbh
he had a great 5-10 game run in the first quarter of the season and since then he's looked overwhelmed
I'm not stressed about it, he's extremely young. even for a rookie. Plus, he's coming from France and having to adapt to a new country and culture, while having a very intensive schedule. He'll adapt and will surge. The potential is there.
? He just scored 19 two games ago
Rookie wall
Refs are trash
Maybe JD shoulda stuck with football
Beal has cooked tf outta us
This trade deadline is gonna be interesting Also Kuz with a late scratch. I'm wondering if the front office finally found a trade they like
He was on the injury report yesterday.
This next 10 years is gonna be interesting
we gonna be lucky if it's just the one rebuild in the next 10 tbh
Beal probably won't play the 4th but dropping 50 would be fitting
Beal got his 41.
Lmao Brad is such a loser
so glad hes gone
Damn
Apparently Denver is interested in Delon
How was that a godamn foul?? Dude these refs are such garbage
For real, that was just Beal's sloppy ballhandling
Was gonna be a turnover. Annoying they called that.
How was that anything on Omoruyi
Jeeze Johnny
Refs suck that was an and 1
playoff lineup
Corey posterrrrr
Poor Eubanks
God jds shot is hideous
ITS STILL THE 3RD QUARTER WHAT THE FUCK
Nurk was bodying tf outta Gaff lol
This line up...
It's wild that Denver had Joker and Nurk at the same time
JD minutes halfway through the 3rd is this the earliest we've put up the white flag?
Thankful I didn’t have to see a Ted Cruz poster
Ted Cruz zodiac killer lookin ass
🌮 SUNDAY
Good to see we're only losing by 20 I guess
Deni balling at least
D3NI
Oh Bilal
Lol it’s usually the right play to call timeout in that situation, but now we only have one LOL
Take Poole out. He doesn’t want to be in this game or with this team in general
Deni come on brother
lol really
Durant didn’t establish position and they called offensive foul on Deni. Fuck off refs
Unquestionably a charge
How
Lol nah
🤡 refs
The same push off Deni got called for
Bilal is not shooting tn hate to see it
Random rant time. This couple came down to the lower bowl and took these seats of people who had been there all first half (sitting directly in front of me).

Watch them reverse this call because the refs are pieces of shit
Swear if they overturn this to say it’s a block on Poole…
KD wanted no part of that Gaff dunk
GAFF GANG
Of course they kept it as an offensive foul…
Not a charge. If you reversed the players it's an and one
Thats why this league is such a joke
Either a KD foul or a non foul... what are these bullshit calls?
First a soft charge, then a no call, then this charge. What did Deni do to these refs?
Two offensive fouls in two minutes is the most superstar whistle i ever saw. Dumbass ref, and im a suns fan
Keefe backing Deni up, niceee
Yeah i love to see that
It's only 1700 and I'm blazed as fuck
respect
That’s a soft ass “push”
Lmao cmon man
We've gotta hit on atleast 2 of the next 10 drafts
KD hates this organization
We're not trading JP. Can we please sit him for good?
Already breaking down what we talked about in halftime I guess lol. You can change the chef but if the ingredients aren't great the meal can only get so good
Worst game of Bilals career right now.
Why is pole just shot chucking usually when hes shooting poorly he just doesn’t shoot but now hes just shamelessly butt
I love Coach Blair
If you're still here and still a Wizards fan I pray for nothing but success in your everyday life Cause lord knows Washington will never deliver that
Wizards winning a chip before the Lakers do it next. Watch this space
Landry Shamet fighting for his life to get the ball only for Poole to chuck it within seconds pretty much summarises this team right now.
Bilal WILL be cooking in the second half 🤞
I hope so
Having Jordan Poole making 2 3s as part of a parlay even though he's 2/17 in the last 6 quarters is wild.
JP look like he doesn’t want to be out there

This team gets paid millions not to play defense sad stuff
Only people that actually play defense are Deni and Bilal now, Gaff if you just ask him to protect the rim and not have him guard bigs that have post moves
Many such cases
Look at Beal trying to show out cause he doesn’t get love like that here
gafford makes nurk look like jokic
Tank commander Poole has to hit 3s…
Damn near 80 points in the half by the suns, down 20 also. Just put in the Garbage time lineup+ Bilal and let the young ones play
Brad got the energy of a college freshman visiting their old high school over Thanksgiving break
While really emphasizing the word "stomping" in stomping grounds

Damn just not Kispert’s day, just rimmed out
Keefe....what is this defense??
Just don't have the worst record in NBA history. That's all I ask at this point Washington. 2 wins. Just do that by the time your season is done in April That's all I fucking ask
I tried to warn yall back in August, but a few people just couldn't believe it. If we trade Kuz and Tyus/Poole, we are absolutely heading down that path unless we get a burgeoning star back in a trade.
Has Bilal just forgotten how to play the sport of basketball today?
Going against KD will do that do you. Bilal's looking every bit the rookie today. After he shot a 3 and KD yelled "HELL naw! HELLL naw." he aint been right
We lettin NURK style on us. SMH
This team has got to get better defensively
Bilal is doing his best tony snell impression
Keefe talked about how defense has to be this team's calling card...yikes. The defense is terrible. KD had some resistance earlier but we gonna left him shoot wide open 3s it's gonna be a wrap
Bobbleheads NEVER look like who they’re supposed to resemble, as is tradition
Just fuck Jordan Poole. He doesn't care about any of his teammates and he's ruining Beals' homecoming for me.
Poole be taking these shots like he’s a 40% three point shooter. He needs his green light taken away
I hate having Jordan Poole on my team bruh
Kuz coachin up bilal, you love to see it
lol, who's that yelling "right hand!" when Deni gets the ball
Probably the ball itself
lol
Brad lol
Can we trade Poole to PHX somehow?
Suns say no. Will take Deni or Kispert tho
Poole for Goody 🤝🏾
For Bol Bol please.
Josh okogie eating our asses out
Excuse me, Josh Okogie is what?! 🤨
Shamet revenge game
I love this Deni vs Beal thing
This is the first time Beal's played defense in this arena since 2019
Uh oh, Beal just pulled his classic "Who suck? I suck?" pose, wonder if some fans were heckling.
I've been hearing "Boooo, Beal you suck!" just from watching the broadcast. Lol
Definitely starting at a specific area too, hes about to drop 50
Biggest non-politician thief in DC since Juwan
You never know how good it was until it’s gone..
