Too many TO! Come on guys.

I am also trying to keep up with the Georgetown and Maryland games. Georgetown doing the best, Maryland within 4 after being behind by about 18 points.

I have really stop worrying about the Wizards winning as long as they are hustling and getting some experience.

Wow KBrown just got ejected. Earl missed one of the free throws – we cannot afford to miss the free ones!

I wanted to say that watching the game, Miller came out very agressive this game. He was looking for his shot, and passed and rebounded well in the 1st qtr, funny thing was as the game went on he became less aggressive?? Still a far better effort from him, although Joe Johnson seemed to really be getting his shot at will. I thought by far this was McGee’s best game as a pro, he defended and rebounded, and had a Dwight Howard night of dunks! He did make some mistakes, however what player doesn’t? He needs at least 25 min a game, great play sir

As far as Dray, great game for him, he had 4 TO’s in the 1st qtr and 7 for the game, however passing out of the double team is an issue that can be easily corrected. Just make the safe pass, not the cross court home run. However Dray’s shot selection and effort on both sides of the court was great to see, great game~

As far as Nick aka Slick, he is very streaky so I expected him to play well tonight, and look for him to do the same next game. He hit his 1st shot, and I thought his jumper set up his drives to the basket, overall a good game by Young and as a fan it was great to see.

Livingston had an ok game, shot selection was questionable however he did run the offense. Foye was really having a heard time wth Bibby, and Randy please do not settle for jumpers, go to the basket~

As far as Thorton, he needs to get into the flow of the game early, he is an ENERGY guy so he needs to get the ball into his spots early (we need a PG). I have no clue as to why Singelton cannot stick on a roster, however I REALLY hope he is a Wizard next year as well as Josh Howard (for the right price).

The fact that Agent Zero is central to his brand is probably the very reason he is changing his number. His thought process is probably to start “fresh” next season. that was his plan this season also and we see how that turned out.

The reason that he is changing his number “the day he was suspended by the nba” is really dramatic. I get so tired of his rationale for doing things….good or not I’m about 75% wishing that he would go somewhere else with the ignorance. If he stays, I hope the new ownership sits him down and gives him something to think about.

Yes, it’s a good article on Howard, and I really hope we get him back. I do hope, however, that he comes at a heavily discounted salary due to his proneness to injury. We don’t want another Etan Thomas experience.

Post article on Howard — he’s like to stay w/ us, and it seems we’re interested. At the right price, he’d certainly be a good pick up.

I don’t get this decision by Gil to change his number. Agent Zero is central to his brand.

JaVale is progressing; that’s for sure. Keep giving him minutes! Keep giving Nick minutes too.

Like Gotabig, I was happy to see an active game from Nick. He did play very good on the ball defense, tho he got beaten a few times off of screens — that will happen… He did not turn the ball over, had a couple of steals, blocked a shot and even had an assist. If I remember right, he seemed to look much better on offense when he was in w/ Livingston.

Dray did play well even w/ the turnovers. If he had avoided a few of those it would have been a game near his best (and… we might have won).

I also agree with the comment that Randy is ready to play and doesn’t back away. Unfortunately, he doesn’t really have the size for a 2. He has never been much of a point guard — wasn’t one in college at all.

Livingston is really hobbled by lack of quickness alas. Not surprised to see his shot inconsistent after so little play; that’ll come back I expect. Just have to hope he can push his physical limits a bit. Wish him the best wherever he winds up.

Mike Miller is being asked to play more minutes than he can at this stage of his career. He started strong then kind of lost it. I don’t mind (or like!) the risky passes — he also made some good ones — but his shot shortens and flattens as the game progresses. I don’t see the point of the criticism; it’s just where he’s at as an athlete right now.

Isn’t Mike Miller #6? Gil of all people shouldn’t be assuming who will be here next year and who won’t.

I think Gil is stupid for changing his number to the same number as Lebron’s new number. I understand he is trying make a new image of himself, but the same number as James. He should have chosen another number.
