Dubs aren't trading Green. This is a silly conversation.

Dubs aren't trading Green. This is a silly conversation. Lots of sports conversations are based on hypotheticals for the sake of discussion. That doesn't make them "silly." That and the fact that Green is fast wearing out his welcome. The current Wiz lineup appears to have peaked. That makes one (or more) of their stars expendable, and no one will take Wall. They could stand to get tougher. The Warriors may still think they can retain Durant, and could stand to get younger. Otto is arguably a fit.

Wall is a cancer. Teams will never win with him in charge.

Wall is a cancer. Teams will never win with him in charge. He is, but Porter's own poor play has hurt his trade stock significantly. If he were playing better, he'd had more interest but currently neither he nor Oubre are generating much buzz in the trade market.

Wall is a cancer. Teams will never win with him in charge. Said this on here 2 years ago. I also stated the Wizards should try and trade Wall for Dame Lillard and got crazy pushback and ridicule for that suggestion as some posters on here said Lillard wasn't on Wall's level. I look back and laugh now... Wiz should try now and pry Kemba from Jordan and the Hornets. Kemba is in his last year of his contract and his reps and MJ weren't close to an extension before the season started. I'm sure the Wiz would have to include draft picks and take back a terrible contract from Charlotte but it would be worth it. Wall has the worst contract in the NBA, and Grunfeld is Grunfeld so expect the Wizards to continue to make bad decisions. To be honest just getting out from under Wall's contract & ego would be a victory for the franchise even if they get very little in return. The cap space is more valuable. Trade Wall and watch how fast Porter's shooting touch returns...

They should get rid of Wall before he loses all value doing something stupid like Addison Russell (who lost all trade value)
Never should have got rid of Gortat. Nobody messed with Gortat.

At the half - LAC 73 Wiz 54 in a total failure of defense. Green 10 points (tied with Wall for leading scorer) and 8 rbs Porter 9 points and 8 rbs
Wiz win in a stirring comeback 125-118. Otto finished with 11 pt 13 rbs; Green with 20 and 7 with some big 3s in the comeback and both closed out the game.

Wall plays best when Editeded. Beal when ignored. Jeff when not needed. Otto when underestimated.
That team has players, the question is if they can get past the egos. Fortunately for them it's a bunch of guys that fight when cornered. I don't think Wall will get traded but maybe some other pieces if they're still out of it come the deadline.

The only silver lining to this Wiz season: the local media appreciate the leadership of Jeff Green and the spark provided by him when he comes off the bench.

Not even trying to get back on defense especially after he misses a shot. Any idea why Brooks waited until the middle of the 2nd quarter to finally play Jeff Green?

Nope, I don't get Brooks subs unless he's experimenting since he's not starting Morris now.

IMO, with the Wiz, the adults in the room need to lead by example. Otto and Jeff need to be aggressive on both ends. Wall doesn't seem to respond well to being talked to about much from what I can tell. But, if the third option and a guy off the bench make Wall look bad in comparison on the floor, maybe something good will happen. It's a shame too because I'd like to see what other level Beal has without having to coexist with a stat hunter like Wall.

That would be a perfect spot for Otto. A team whose best player gives 100% on both ends and also has a high bball IQ. Bradley has a great skill set and would be a great leader if John was gone. I would trade Wall for a blender if someone would take his contract. I don't know what has happened to John over the last 3yrs but his skills and attitude have gone south.....

Otto going off in 1st period tonite. 16 of Wiz first 32. Six of seven with 3 3 pointers. Hopefully he won’t fade into oblivion as the game progresses. Looks like not much D being played on either side.h
