I know it’s a bit early to start thinking about the NBA Draft….well, not really.
I couldn’t help myself as I watched the calm/cool/collective, yet, tough and banging exploits of Blake Griffin this past Sunday against UNC.
The Wizards want him on that line, they need him on that line.
All the fodder amongst “us” Wizards fans is that we are due for some good luck in the draft.

Wizards fans, do we really want a guy who might be hitting his head on the rim….or backboard….when he goes for dunks?
I. think. not.
easy jerks, just kiddingIf the Wiz get the #1 or #2 pick, take Griffin or Ricky Rubio….if not, try to package the pick with a contract (Etan Thomas or Mike James) or some prospect (Nick Young or Andray Blatche) for some true to the game help.

A great man once said that a picture is worth a thousand words…I could be wrong, but I think that great man was Jesus.
And, my game blogs, which have become noticeably sparse, tend to be very, very lengthy.
So, in lieu, I present what went down last night via screen shots.
Enjoy America.
Oh yea, part one of this is on Bullets Forever……go there first and then come back here.

U dead cat. Hey you!….jerk Wizards fan (pointing to myself in mirror)….What, you have nothing to look forward to? (aside from the season ending)
Oh…I forgot, you’re all jazzed about Gilbert Arenas playing on Saturday. Keep it in your pants hot shot, that’s a ‘believe it when you see it’ situation.
I’m not talking three days from now, I’m talking TONIGHT!

The Wizards lost to the Bulls last night while giving the kiddies floor burn much to the delight of Wizards malcontents who would find negativity in just about anything (and no, despite popular belief, I am not one of those people).
You remember David Wesley….former NBAer, longtime Hornet, one time speed racer (what, too soon?).
I was flipping around on whatever day it was….with basketball, they all run into each other…and evidently Baylor was playing against someone in some tournament…..probably NIT (is the CBI even on television? is it black-listed from MSMer and the blogworld alike?)…..and there was David Wesley: student manager.
Wesley needed 33 credits to graduate, so working on that physical education degree while watching basketball…..good for him.
Wesley never played for the Wizards, but is connected to several people who have:

My first thought was: Are you effing kidding me?
As rumors about Gilbert Arenas’ possible return to the basketball court leaked via a supposed text message from Arenas to Comcast’s Chris Miller, then to the world wide web via a Twitter tweet from Comcast’s Andy Siegel, which was ultimately picked up by Mr. Irrelevant and the DC Sports Bog (twitters…internets…boy, if you were ever looking for more signs that newspapers are dying).
“Ur the first to get the truth,” Arenas texted to Miller.
Of course, Gil then told the Washington Post’s Dan Steinberg, “It’s only true if I play on Saturday. If I don’t play, it ain’t true.”

JaVale McGee has made quite the impression on the NBA.
Ashy to classy? More like from draft night ‘WTF?!!’ to ‘the Wizards shouldn’t trade this kid for anything.’
As Young Choppa’s minutes have increased, fans in league arenas across the nation are starting to notice. And dreams of pilfering the kid with the hot mom from Ernie Grunfeld have commenced.
No dice.

All you really need to know about the Wizards’ loss to the Nuggets on Friday.
One moment, Andray Blatche is going to the basket aggressively. Blatche, a wiry big man who relies too much on his guard skills, thinks he can comfortably slide by the smaller man and float up a scoop shot.
But then comes the feathered wing of a flying Birdman.
NOPE!
Kids don’t go hard anymore, they’re too cool for school.
Birdman Chris Anderson is retro like that.
No Way. Read more »
Somebody asked me, “Did you stay up for the game?”
“Yea…,” I slowly answered….and then I realized (or recalled)…the Wizards lost that effing game last night.
Did they, or did they not, have any business losing?
The answer is obvious: of course.
