Grizzled Vet 0 Report post Posted January 26 Wizards could be recovering from this for a while... It's also why I'm Ok when Jenkins holds off on bringing in the bench when the lead is "only" 25 with 4 minutes left. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's also why I'm Ok when Jenkins holds off on bringing in the bench when the lead is "only" 25 with 4 minutes left. That's the kind of loss, two weeks before the trade deadline, that can force a front office to be very aggressive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brooks and Kyle were with the team yesterday, so I imagine that Kyle is very close and Dillon not far behind. I didn't see Tyus which is problematic on two fronts. If he wasn't with the team then he may still be symptomatic and his brother plays for San Antonio so you have to figure if he could be there he would have been. Then again maybe I just didn't see him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The J Crew 0 Report post Posted January 28 32 minutes ago, kevofrommempho said: Montrezl Harrell for Culver + UTA pick? I don't know. Wasn't really thinking about the Grizz. But if the Wizards offered Montrezl, Rui Hachimura and their own pick this year, which right now is the 12th pick, to the Pistons for Jerami Grant, that might get it done. Grant just makes so much sense for the Wizards. He grew up in D.C., his dad played there, went to HS at Dematha. Wes Unseld coached him already in Denver. And the Wiz need to do anything they can to encourage Brad Beal to sign his extension this summer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kevofrommempho 0 Report post Posted January 28 This is going to be a tough one as the second of a back to back. Would be nice if KA and/or Tyus could be back for this one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then again maybe I just didn't see him. I saw him on the broadcast, they showed him and talked about his impact. I think both Kyle and Tyus could be back today. I just think they might not have wanted to play them on the first night of a back to back. I assume Dillon is going to be out at least another week, possibly two.

ALT GRIND 0 Report post Posted January 29 Is Tyrell Terry playing? We need that guy. If ZW8 is banged up we need to rest him. Replace him with Culver. Culver can play defense. Just tell him to not shoot. Failing that, don't pass him the ball. If Kyle plays... use him off the bench in a slow down lineup. Start Ja/Bane (duh) with Culver at the 3 if ZW8 is doubtful, then BC/Jaren inside. Fast break them into the ground. Get up early. Maybe we can rest our main guys a bit in the second half. Melton/Konchar/Point Kyle/Adams get the major minutes off the bench. Then see what Tyrell Terry/Yves Pons can do/not do? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
