Wizards Insider: November 25, 2007 - December 1, 2007
Bad ending to long trip
This is not the way to end a long trip, losing to a lousy team by one point. Both teams came out flat in a game that I will remember only for its weirdness. The Sixers won even though they missed all 14 of their three-point attempts and their...

Live from Philly
The Wizards put a real beating on the Sixers at VC back on Nov. 20 so you would expect to see Philly come out with some real energy. Philly (4-10) is coming off a home loss to Utah on Wednesday night but has been playing better ball since the...

No moves at this time
The Wizards don't have any immediate plans to add another player, I was told today. That doesn't rule it out as a possibility but I thought that in light of the report in today's Rocky Mountain News, I'd do some asking about the issue. According to the report, recently...

Can Dunleavy Keep This Up?
The list of disappointments from the 2002 NBA Draft is longer than Beyonce's weave. Yeah, Yao Ming, Amare Stoudemire, Caron Butler and Carlos Boozer (a second-round pick) have become all-stars, but it's pretty pitiful when three of the top six picks are already out of the league after just five...

Tony Parker, Tony Parker, Tony Parker..
All you really need to know about San Antonio's 109-94 win over the Wizards tonight is that Tony Parker couldn't be stopped (29 points and 11 assists) while the Spurs pretty much stopped Caron Butler and Antawn Jamison (28 points combined, zero in the fourth quarter). The Wiz played pretty...

Wiz putting up a fight
It's 49-46 Spurs here at halftime and the Wizards are playing solid basketball. If Jamison can get going, the Wiz may have a shot. One quick thing from the pregame chat with Eddie Jordan. Folks have been asking me why he hasn't used the big lineup that had Butler...

On to San Antonio
Obviously, the tragic news about Sean Taylor has dampened the mood all over the sports world so I won't say much about last night's big Wiz win at Dallas other than it was perphaps the team's best effort all season and the best road win since last December at...

Live from Dallas
Sorry for the lack of blog updates the last two days. Something went wrong with the blogging network we use and I wasn't able to post over the weekend. I just arrived here at AA Arena in Dallas for tonight's game. The Wiz are coming off a couple of...
