    I seriously thought Ron Baker was going to be a Rocket the way he played a couple years ago. He may not be the full Caucasian the Rockets need to contend though. However, he is a Caucasian.

    That team is broken, they're refusing to blow it up like we did in 2015/16 and they're probably making a big mistake cause they won't even make the playoffs, for as bad as our lockeroom was we were still so talented that we somehow managed to made the playoffs, but i don't think you can expect the same by the Wizards, they're not as good, and their lockeroom situation is probably even worse then what we had here three years ago...half of that team probably just can't wait to get traded or released.

    Thankfully, Ariza's offense has overcome the bad defense. Oh wait, he's shooting 26% from 3point range (8 for 31), and 33% overall (20 for 60) in the last 4 games since the trade. The Wizards are 1-3 this week, with the only win in that Triple OT over PHX. They had a bad loss to ATL, along with the Houston and Indy losses. If Ariza was playing as good as everyone on this board thinks he can, then I'm sure the Wizards season will turn around.

    When someone gives you $15 million to help provide veteran leadership to a young team(he knew what he was signing up for), what gives you the right to "mentally checkout", aka quit on the team?? Ariza's only gift under the tree this year is a big box of Karma!

    LOL, Ryan Anderson getting DNP-CD after DNP-CD. Sitting on the bench giving off "Vet experience" while his check clears.

    Your username containing "dub" is certainly appropriate.
