No way, Wall has the potential to be a top 10 player in the league if he ever gets some help (and learns to know when to slow down). Dude's been on a tear the past few months, too. There's something about Ellis that just doesn't jive with winning basketball... not sure if it was the complete overhaul in Golden State after Nelson left, but he just hasn't been the same after his injury. We'll see what he can do in Milwaukee.

As for some good news:

LOL

Safe to say, AB is done as a Wizard.

God only knows how long that's going to take. I feel like I've never seen a good Wizards team, even though they were good 4-5 years ago? I trust Leonsis to make good decisions, because hell, look at the Capitals. It just feels like the Wizards are a long ways away from being even a .500 team.

Last time I came to Washington was when Arenas was just entering his prime. Was great going to watch the Wizards for a couple of weeks and them actually consistently winning.

Considering how awful this team has been the past few years, I don't blame you. But the NBA is fickle- look how quickly the Clippers turned it around with the addition of Chris Paul. Indiana made some excellent under-the-radar moves to become a solid team, also.

I think if we get an Anthony Davis or a Bradley Beal, this team could definitely vie for a playoff spot as soon as next season. Of course, this all depends on Wall's on-court maturity over the next year.

I thought this was funny as hell.
