Hopefully a select few Wizard players have learned that talking trash about a team and/or a player when they have beaten you 3 straight times in the playoffs is pathetic.

Enjoy the offseason (again)

If the Washington front office is smart, they will remove the foolish cancers from the roster for next year.

Come on Johnny....trash talk didn't lose the series.  Our probs were plenty before the series began:  it's been an injury-prone season (again)....Gil, CB, AD, and Etan; we don't have a big-boy / wide-body for all those games we were out-rebounded (we didn't make a move before the trade deadline); maybe the Princeton offense is only good for the NCAA?; we were on the rear-end of many many bad calls by the refs all season long....ask Steve and Phil!

It's simple, a great team that gets to the finals has to be:  healthy, wealthy, and wise! (an old adage that has meaning in the sports world)

GO WiZ!!!

Cool avatar.

I hope the Wizards stay just the way they are.

Next year will be four in a row.

I can smell 4 in a row already.  Flushing the wiz is too easy.  They might be cursed.  Maybe they'll start winning again if they change their name back to the bullets.

I am not trying to make excuses but the Wizards main players have almost never actualy played together as a big 3 healthy. That in mind their dominant form is not out yet. They don't have to take out "cancers" its the playoffs everyone trashes LEBRON ISN'T PERFECT IF YOU PUT KOBE INTHE EAST HE WOULD BE KING KOBE AND LEBRON WOULD BE ANOTHER PLAYER THATS GOOD. Also I have found a funny youtube video called queen james it's really funny wizards fans gotta watch it.

I'm not sure you should call players cancers yet. DeShawn said something foolish. I remember Kobe Bryant demanding a trade, does that make him a cancer? I'm not equiting DeShawn's play with Kobe's, but DeShawn brings the club together in the locker room.

That said, Nick Young is almost ready to take his starting spot. Nick is a much better offensive player and can be just as good a defensive player. With the way Caron plays, he's not going to always be healthy. But with Blatche backing him up, it could end up ok.

If there was one move I think the Wizards could benefit from, it would be picking up a guy like Tyrus Thomas to be a rebounder/shot blocker inside.

Yeah it was foolish to talk crap and then get beat but I agree that was nit the reason they lost. They lost because of no chemistry and not enough physical play. And I am not talking about knocking crybaby to trhe floor a few times.Come playoff time you have to be able to control the boards with physical play and not continuosly take stupid shots in crucial situations. Also as far as the trash talking goes everyone seems to give Deshawn crap for starting it but he was actually retaliating to trash talking from James which nobody talks about because he is the whinny little darling of the NBA.. Maybe next year we learn from mistakes and just play all out smart and physical bball WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOO
