Wizards Insider Archive: JaVale McGee
Another wild night in Philadelphia for Wizards
I don't think I can come to Philadelphia without something crazy happening anymore. I missed the Wizards' game at Wells Fargo Center in Jan. 5, which was only amusing in that it added another double-digit road loss to the ledger. Is this why you're mad? (AP Photo/Matt Slocum) But the...

Wizards could be quiet at trade deadline
The Wizards may not be silent at the trade deadline, but they aren't aggressively looking to make deals, based on some conversations that I've had with front office executives and agents.
