    Damn, Beal is just trolling Lowry at this point.

    Lowry has to be smarter than that. He wanted to stay in the game, he has to be smarter.

    Lowry picks up 2 fouls in the first half of the 1st quarter, waives off Casey to stay in the game and then picks up a T. smh.

    Toronto just sucks. Everything on offense is a difficult contested/fadeaway shot and defensively, Wizards are getting everything they want.

    Then picks up his third foul trying to block Beal's shot.

    4-5 is supposed to be the most balanced matchup. Not this year. Looks like a sweep for both the West and East by the lower seeded team.

    Imagine if Lowry was having just an average playoff series. People would be in here calling for Morey's head for asking Lowry to wait a couple hours.

    I can't wait to see the twitter reaction after the first round when both Randy Wittman and Mchale will advance and both Pop and Rick Carlisle will be out.

    What kind of reaction are you expecting? Houston and LAC are 2nd and 3rd seeded teams so them advancing aren't the biggest surprises of the world.

    I'm pretty sure that has already happened, and for good reason. We passed on a 18/7/5 PG at 12 MM/yr to take some crazy shot at Melo, of all people. Yeah, Lowry can't carry a team, but you won't convince me that we wouldn't be a downright elite with Lowry at the PG slot

    Hope we can blow out the Mavs like this.

    Lowry has looked like crap going back to after the Allstars break. Still a very good player who is having a bad year.

    Toronto local announcers are really classy for praising Washington and looking at the Toronto team moving forward. We need more local announcers like that.

    Bill, Bull and Clyde may be homers, but they don't disrespect the opposition when Rockets lose. I'm kind of tired of everyone dumping on our guys, they aren't that bad.

    But I love Bill, Bull, and Clyde. I'm saying we need more guys like the Toronto announcers.
