Love it for the Wizards. Very solid mock.

Agreed on most of your points. As for the McGee situation, I like him, but I just don't know if he will ever pan out to be honest. He's just so raw right now, and his basketball IQ is extremely low. If Leonsis is able to work his magic and get a late pick in the lotto, I HOPE we can get Cole Aldrich. He reminds me of Kendrick Perkins, a great defender with a big body. He can score in the low post and would give us a nice Rondo-Perk esque tandem (Wall and Aldrich literally mirror that duo). There's absolutely no chance we pick up Howard's option, but there still is hope for him in DC. He can still re-sign with us, but like you said, it has to be a low contract. We can't afford to throw a ton of money on injury-prone guys anymore. Leonsis believes in building through the draft, so don't expect us to be big players in the free agency period. We're all about the draft now, and all I'm hoping for is getting more picks.

Agreed, Greivis just doesn't seem like he'll pan out in the league. His career is fit for overseas. Livingston should resign, along with Mike who is an excellent player to use in the starting line up. Wall loves to penetrate and dish it out, we need three point shooters along the perimeter to keep Wall comfortable in the offense. It also helps having a jump shooting big in Blatche and a dynamite scorer in Arenas. As for Nick Young, I want to believe he will have a good year, but with the return of Arenas, I just don't see it happening. This could very well be his last year in Washington. It's time to bring in a new project at SG. Rudy Gay just doesn't seem like a championship type player. We're building a team, the last thing we need is a player like Rudy. We don't need to waste our money, I fully believe in Ted and I think he'll make smart decisions. Carmelo Anthony is a guy who is constantly put into rumors on RealGM forums (that's all I've been doing, reading posts on RealGM since they got some quality guys there that know what they're talking about). He seems like our best bet at SF moving forward in 2011. He has ties to the area, loves the Baltimore/Washington area, and let's face it, the chances of him winning in Denver is low. He very well could be on his way out, and Washington would throw a ton of money at him. Let's not forget, we're one superstar away from contending (assuming Mike also resigns and the Arenas experiment works).

Yeah I love Pondexter. Everyone on WizardsExtreme and RealGM is high on him, and I've begun to look at him more and more. As for our second rounder, I don't know about Greivis. I love him to death, probably my favorite college player ever after Juan Dixon, but we really don't need him. I rather see us sign Shaun Livingston who showed a ton of promise this past season. We should go after Jordan Crawford or a SG. I've also heard Ted Leonsis is wanting more picks (a late lottery pick or a pick in the early teens). I really hope he buys out some from teams like the Thunder or Hornets (both of which could use the extra cash). Building through the draft is what I want to see us do, don't sign any top named free agent, just let John Wall and the rest of the young guys develop.

I hope you feel better soon B, don't worry about OTR.

I remember meeting him at the Verizon Center, what a great person and a true humanitarian. RIP Manute.

So pumped for this game, Ray Allen is going to have a huge game, he played well last time in LA. -
Fair enough, good thinking RD.

Lakers will win probably since Perk is out. -
GM6: Boston (3) @ Los Angeles (2)

Gotta bad feeling the Lake show takes this. Hoping the Celtics win tonight. -
Yeah I saw this earlier, looks sick. Love the old school feel to this. I still play the original one for N64 with my cousins when they come over.
-
Just got mine today in the mail as well, looks nice, will test it out tonight or tomorrow morning. Didn't get the second one I ordered for my dad though. -_-

just ordered mine, thanks Jammin.

I cannot believe Ray Allen... I'm speechless right now.
-
Ray Allen hasn't done [expletive]. Wow. Cannot believe this.
-
horrible calls
-
Come on Celtics, ride this momentum all the way to the end of the game.

You have to start somewhere. This is the beginning of a new age in DC sports, and it's led by the Caps. So for now, I consider it a Hockey Town.
-
So what is it? A football town? Baseball? Basketball? It's one or the other, so choose. The fact that you think bringing up statistics from 2005 just proves how baseless your argument is. The Capitals are the only relevant team right now in DC. Do you know what that means? Well for one, it means they have the best attendance. It also means they have the most success. If the majority of sports fans like the Caps, what does that tell you?
-
I don't think you get it.. 1. The Nationals are far from this discussion. 2. The Redskins are a disappointment. Half of the football fans are Steeler fans. 3. The Wizards are considered a joke. What does that mean? The only successful team the last 3 years has taken over. You're using one instance from a game 4 years ago as the basis of your argument, that has no credibility at all. I live in the area, I think I'd know.
-
The Celtics just need to contain the paint, let the Lakers shoot those three's. On offense, just keep attacking the rim.
-
I don't expect you to think that, you don't live in DC...

Things have changed since then if you haven't noticed.
