    i would say the wiz.

    John wall is gonna be a top tier PG in the league that plays unselfishly. Add in Magee and Young, you have a very strong core.

    If Tyreke stays healthy and Cousins manages to live up to even 75% of his potential I'd say Kings, but IMO ifs lead to lots of problems more often than not (like the Tmac/Yao ifs).

    That being said, John Wall is playing amazingly with absolutely no talent around him, so I have to go with the Wizards

    Really? i think the kings have a better future, i mean you have tyreke evans, who if he develops a shot like rose did during the offseason, is going to be extremely dangerous. imo better than john wall.

    then you have cousins, and whiteside, who have great potential. and you cant forget about jason thompson, guy is going to be a beast.

    you still have omri casspi, francisco garcia, jermaine taylor, donte greene,
    i mean come on guys,

    john wall can only do so much.
    as a team, i expect the kings to become like an oklahoma city kind of team..

    Wizards, but not by much. Tyreke Evans hasn't improved from last year. He seems to be having a harder time with his offense, now that Kevin Martin is there to keep the other perimeter defender honest.

    Cousins is a timebomb.

    The Wizards are in the East. They only need a 0.500 to be a 6th seed in the East. The Kings need a 0.600 record just to get a 6th seed.

    John Wall will be a superstar in this league. If the Wizards can figure out to get rid of all the boneheads and surround Wall with quality talent they'll be a player in the East for years to come. Of course, that all starts with NOT handing out horrific contract extensions (Arenas, Blatche, etc).

    ya agreed. they need to get rid of lewis and blatche.

    They need a back to the basket 4 to go along and a pure spot up shooter at 2.

    Let me take back my choice of the Wizards. The Kings are so bad(3rd worst record), that they may win a top 3 lottery pick.

    Wizards will probably be drafting outside the top 5 in a very shallow draft.

    Perry Jones, Jared Sullinger or Kyrie Irving would make a nice addition to the Kings.

    The Wizards, John Wall has top tier super star talent...

    However the Wizards need to get rid of their head coach, I don't think Flip Saunders is the right fit..

    The Kings are missing a: PG
    The Wizards are missing a rotational: SF

    Both young teams, but I think Wizards got the edge for this one

    john wall is a legit passing PG WITH ridiculous offensive potential. he'll be better than rose EASILY.

    sucks wall is playing injured right now so his offense isn't what it can be in his rookie year. but the guy sure has great court vision, something he already has over rose.

    I would say The Kings, the Kings have 2 young talented players in Evans and Cousins, but if they can't manage to keep Cousins's attitude in check then it's definitely not going to work out.

    Wizards. It's funny how some teams can continually accumulate talent like the Griz, Clips, and Warriors and never get anywhere.
