Wizards in Trouble?

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/11/22/AR2009112201805.html

Well now this is happening... I guess the team is gonna be blown up soon.....

Lol.

So much talent on this team.
Too much selfishness and injuries...

damn....that sucks...

I really dont givva shit about the wizards anymore...give me a winner or give me death!

We look just like shit stains wearing jersey, Caron butler is the problem!

I still think we will be OK this season though, Knowing ernie this team WILL NOT be blown up, And I don't think it should be. Abe doesn't have time to wait on us to rebuild, He said " I ain't got long to live but i aint going nowhere untill we get a G#@damn championship!"

Lol...

Well, if this continues on through game 20, I think we'll be the most screwed team in the NBA. Nets and Knicks suck yes, but they have a ton of cap room next year and will pick up an improved player from the free agent class. They're not getting LeBron or Wade or Bosh, but they should get a decent player or two. the 20 or so million we have in cap room on the other hand will get us to just below the salary cap so we really can't sign anyone else besides our own guys. Second, Arenas is the franchise of the Wizards for another four years, which can be disastrous if he continues to give 4 TO's a game, so that's too early, but if he's garbage this year, then we are still screwed for years to come as no one wants him. Jamison and Butler also will call this year in DC their last because they're the most valuable pieces we have for any trade for expiring contracts, assuming we blow up the team this year. That's our only hope to try to land LeBron in vain of course.

Gilbert Arenas needs to stop pointing his finger... maybe that extra digit on the basketball will help with the insane amount of turnovers he's committing and shoot better than the 39% he's hitting from the field.

Cuz I got a big EGOOOOOO. Such a huge EGOOOOOOO. LOL @ Brendan Heywood.

This team just needs to get itself back on track. Its up to the team leaders and coaches to bring this group together. Gilbert is turning the ball over, and jacking up threes like there is no tomorrow. Caron Butler is shooting awfully, and has worse than a 1:2 assist to turnover ration. Antawn has played well since his return, and Blatche before that, as well Heywood being a healthy and consistent starting center thus far. Its hard to figure out what exactly is causing this team to be so bad. They've got the talent to be a contender, and are finally, for once, actually healthy. They've got a solid bench for the first time (Blatche, Foye, Boykins). I guess it just comes down to them wanting to play together as a team. I would say it comes down of the shoulders of the veterans, but that doesn't seem to be working, because they're the ones with the issues. This is where a guy like Sam Cassell can step in and say something. A guy with some recent NBA experience can sit down and talk with these guys to get everyone on the same page. SOMETHING must be done, and them complaining, fighting, arguing, and finger pointing is not the solution. Better get it together fast, before they're chances are gone for good.
