Duke you realize wiggins was 3 of 5 from the field in the last 2 minutes. It was fine players are going to miss shots here and there.
I usually don't blame thibs but thought he had a bad game. No timeouts left with a minute to go is bad. Also the bench gave him good minutes in the 1st half but he didn't trust them in the second especially cole who played all of a minute in the 2nd half after a good 1st half stint.
But overall defense rotations are a big problem like it was wide open 3's and layups late.

Agreed, the thing is, is it growing pains or are they not as good/will be as good as we thought or do the individual talents just not mesh.
That is the question I don't know the answer for and I'm nervous about the possible outcome of the answer
Re: Who is watching Wash vs Min GDT
I'm just frustrated. Don't mean to be an asshole. Tough to watch. My comment about Wigs 1st half and not being excited about it is because we all know he can score, even efficiently at times, but it's the same thing. It's almost all iso, it not the 90's, passing and making guys is what separates the best. The third quarter he showed signs of that I thought. But reverted down the stretch.

Re: Who is watching Wash vs Min GDT
I'm starting to wonder if the NBA in 2017 is passing Thibs by. He doesn't seem to be doing anything to fix the problems that continues to plague this team. How long will it take him to figure out that what he's doing right now isn't working? It's as if he's thinking one day the light bulb will go off and the players will say "OH!" And do everything he wants.
What else is there to lose? The team? If they have any care in the world they should be reaching that point of frustration already.

I'm not trying to be a dick but the late 90s was the prime of iso basketball
Re: Who is watching Wash vs Min GDT
Kek, he could of went 5 for 5 and I still would of felt the same way. I honestly mean that. They team won't take the next step until they learn to play together.

I'm curious though what should he change with the roster he has.
Re: Who is watching Wash vs Min GDT
Jim Peterson just criticized Wiggins for not contributing in other ways - only 1 rebound and 2 assists. He didn't do much defensively but no worse than KAT and the rest of the team.

His passes led to baskets for Gorgui and Towns. There were a couple misses also. I'm really surprised you're going off on Wig TONIGHT. There are other nights where he actually deserves it.
Damn right cool. Wig make more than 50% of his shots. Got to the ft line more than the rest of his teammates and even more than the wizards team itself. He was attacking the rim from the get go. He dunked the ball every chance he got when he had a good angle to it. Whereas he got his shot blocked the last few games when he tried to finger rolled it instead of dunking it. Tonight he was dunking it.
We loss because 2 of the big 3 was 10-31 from the field. We all know that this team need the big 3 to all play well to have a shot at winning.
