This is precious but also a lie. But no need to embarrass Cam any more than already, so the right lie.
"[Cam is] gonna be back in here in the mix at some point, it always works out this way. We’re seeing different guys — Will Riley, Jamir [Watkins] — those guys stepped up and have been playing well. Just looking at those combinations, nothing more than that.”

Bites at the apple? At least feel around to see if it’s bruised first. A bruised apple isn’t just going to lose its bruises.
Brian Keefe on Cam Whitmore, who didn't play tonight.
"We have certain standards that we have for our team. He has to live up to those on the better. And he'll have a chance here, but that's gonna be up to him when that time comes."

Really fun #Wizards win last night — was great to witness in person! Also, the Bucks are pretty bad and Doc Rivers has checked out. Pretty baffling.
What was special from the Wizards is that everyone contributed and no one shit the bed….

I guess this has to count as a Fun-Bad loss, but boy do the Wizards really suck as if it’s Y1 and not Y3 of a rebuild.

The #Wizards got outscored 37-17 in the 2nd Q of an 11-point loss to Minny on Wednesday. Keefe over-relied on 2 poor defensive lineups to a fault: CJ, Khris, George, Bilal, and Tristan, and then another lineup with Kispert replacing Middleton. Really tough to put 3 minus defenders together.

Before game 15 vs the Raptors…
#Wizards stand at 6 “Fun-Bad” games and 8 BAD-bad games.
Bad Nets loss > players only meeting > Bad Twolves loss, mainly b/c of 2nd Q.
They haven’t truly been Fun bad since G7 loss vs Knicks.

New Wale album review nobody asked for.
Poached egg spinning in water, not hard boiled. I like eggs in all forms, but the album isn’t about eggs.
Definitely some bops. Definitely some songs that require being a ‘turtle neck guy’
Too much ‘ur not Beyoncé bruh’, not enough Barry Sanders.

Update: despite the solid showing by Sarr and George in Houston, that was a non-competitive BAD loss. No fun at all.
This brings the #Wizards to 6-6 for this exercise and 1-11 in reality … with Brooklyn coming to DC on Sunday.

CJ & Khris — while a great name for a duo, they are virtually untradeable and washed in the position the #Wizards must put them in … in order to maybe trade them … taking on more $$$ — rightly — to get yet another apple bite or asset.

Bubs Carrington this season just ain’t it, unfortunately. Still a long way to go. But a regression so far.

Alex Sarr is an All-Star talent. Not as good as Kevin Garnett, but money is on markedly better than LaMarcus Aldridge.

DC sports is devastatingly sad. And titles in baseball and hockey barely count because they are not football or basketball. Not so much a hot take as it is reality.

They are making Sam Darnold & the Seahawks look like that Michael Vick Eagles game. At least Dan Snyder has been exiled. That’s all we can really keep telling ourselves.
