  Truth About It - Washington Wizards Blog — Authority: 596
  There were several interesting quotes from the Wizards about themselves in Michael Lee’s report from Minneapolis on Wizards Insider .

  Truth About It - Washington Wizards Blog — Authority: 596
  The Minnesota Timberwolves might have blamed their poor shooting Saturday night on a cold gym (they finished 37.4% from the field and spent much of the game in the 30s), much like Gilbert Arenas did after a loss to Detroit earlier in December. Instead, the young T-Wolves fired up energy and hustle to overcome ...

  Stet Sports Blog — Authority: 528
  Note the question is “should,” not “could,” because there’s no way the Washington Wizards are going to jettison the one variable that has nothing to do with their inconsistency.

  Truth About It - Washington Wizards Blog — Authority: 596
  Flip Saunders didn’t care about Tuesday night’s win over the Philadelphia 76ers. Well, not like he didn’t care , care. If you ask him, I’m sure he’ll tell you that he was damn glad to have a ‘W’ notched in the record book. The win wasn’t even one of those ‘whew, that was a close one, glad we came ...

  Truth About It - Washington Wizards Blog — Authority: 596
  Why is Gilbert Arenas always so ready to give up a foul after he or his team commits a turnover?

  Truth About It - Washington Wizards Blog — Authority: 596
  I seriously contemplated whether I should ever watch the Wizards-Suns game. It’s not like I didn’t know the 121-95 outcome or was unable to witness the Wizards constructing a Brick City that would make  Redman proud. Instead of dedicating my Saturday night life to the Wizards at home, I ventured out in the D.C. ...

• Who’s Worse: Redskins or Wizards?

  
  Stet Sports Blog — Authority: 528
  To answer that question, you have to look at what you knew about both teams before the season started, and what we’ve learned thus far. We knew that the Washington Redskins were a mess coming into 2009. They had an embattled head coach from last year’s swoon of the second-half of the season. They had a ...
