Bargain hunting

Mon, 21 Jul 2008 04:33:00 +1900

Flash back for a second to the summer of 2006. The Wizards, fresh off their tight playoff loss to Cleveland, were about to enter training camp with a gaping hole at shooting guard. Starter Jared Jeffries signed a contract with New York that paid him way more than he was worth, but the Wizards had yet to replace him. It was either start Jarvis Hayes and shudder at the thought ...

Pollin': Big Words

Tue, 22 Jul 2008 16:03:41 +1900

As Dan pointed out this morning , Gilbert's press conference for his new contract is happening today. When he did his press conference the first time around, he made the bold prediction that the Wizards would make the playoffs. It took him a year longer than he anticipated, but he did fulfill his promise and has now done so for the last four years. Now, as we come to ...

Game Day Open Thread (Suns / Wizards)

Mon, 21 Jul 2008 04:36:00 +1900

Sitting in the stands before the Suns / Wizards end the Summer League and low and behold the most amazing thing happened during the Knicks / T-Wolves games. No, the Knicks aren't playing any defense (they are down 75 to 55 in the 3rd and that's with Kevin Love out w/ a rolled ankle). No, its better then that. During half time they called Nate Robinson to center court and retired his ...

Why Nick Young is the Key to the Washington Wizards' Playoff Hopes

Thu, 24 Jul 2008 13:56:31 +1900

The team’s success has been built on perimeter play. Their guards for the last several years have been dribble drive threats, that will occasionally kill you from the three-point line. It’s for that reason that the Wizards playoff success or failure in 2008-09 will rest on Nick Young.

Gilbert Arenas doesn't like Milwaukee, and that's good for the NBA

Wed, 23 Jul 2008 16:07:53 +1900

Sure Gilbert Arenas runs his mouth at times....but for the most part, it's all in good fun. (And yes, I've been frustrated at this "fun") But what's wrong with garnering more attention and creating a spirited rivalry between two cities/teams? We'll be hearing about this next season when the Washington Wizards face off against the Milwaukee Bucks.

Together again briefly, Dee Brown and Deron Williams chart different courses

Mon, 21 Jul 2008 11:25:25 +1900

If he wanted to go that route, Dee Brown could have looked to his left, spotted Deron Williams sitting courtside, and let the jealousy fill him up. They were in the same backcourt at Illinois four years ago, and Brown had top billing on the marquee. Now, on the last day of the NBA Summer League here, Brown was on the court trying to make a favorable impression on the Washington Wizards execs...

Who Gets Gilbert Arenas' Money?

Tue, 22 Jul 2008 15:32:31 +1900

Draft pick JaVale McGee, who has looked solid in summer league but not dominant, should be their primary post signing, but one more couldn’t hurt. They could also use a back up for Caron Butler, but that be asking for a lot to get both. To that end, here’s a list of potential free agents that could improve the Wizards chances at advancing through the 2008-09 NBA Playoffs.

Arenas Returns With Bold Predictions and a New Attitude

Wed, 23 Jul 2008 19:47:42 +1900

In September of 2003, the Washington Wizards called a press conference to announce that they had just signed a 21-year-old guard from the Golden State Warriors named Gilbert Arenas. He was scheduled to make $65 million over six years, and he also was going to sweeten the bitter taste Michael Jordan’s abrupt departure left with the team.

Wiz win

Sat, 19 Jul 2008 02:48:00 +1900

Before we get to the Wizards, Golden State rookie Anthony Randolph just threw down a sick one-handed tip jam right in front of me. See it. As for the Wizards, they won 72-69 over Cleveland tonight to improve to 1-2 in summer league play. It wasn't pretty and several players had rough games including second-year guard Nick Young (five points on 1-of-9 shooting) but Andray Blatche played his best game of the week and...Please click on the title to continue reading this entry.

Out of Bounds Rick Mahorn: Will the Fight Between Candace Parker and Plenette Pierson Change the Scope of the WNBA?

Wed, 23 Jul 2008 13:15:34 +1900

A change is gonna come, but don’t compare this to the Detroit/Indiana “brawl”. If you do, that’s irresponsible. This is the WNBA not the NBA As I write this in my best attempt to stay clear of being judge and jury, a fight occurred during a basketball game in a familiar venue. If the Palace at Auburn Hills rings a bell, then you must understand that there has ...
