Wizards Get a Win.

Finally, a win. I am a hockey person, but I've played basketball and although I'm not exactly a pro, I understand the game. Arenas came through for his team after choking on two very important games recently, with 31 points. Earl Boykins also came through with 18 points to pull the Wizards to a  105-98 victory.

 

Caron Butler started off slow, but he too pulled it together in the fourth quarter to contribute to the win. This Wizards win puts them 9-17 for the season.

 

The Wizards are an interesting team, they have the players but have a hard time getting what counts -- a W in that win column. With the removal of Eddie Jordan, Washington fans expected a hot start, atleast I did. When they came out with an average start and have now downgraded to a losing season, I for one am confused. Flip Saunders is a good coach, and he has the superstars that are capable of a play-off team.

 

According to the Wizards post game live crew, the Wizards have had big problems in the turnover area. Tonight, they limited their turnovers and got the win.

 

Late in the game, Washington Coach Flip Saunders took out his superstars and replaced them with their usual 2nd string. The Bench scored 43 points out of the total 105, which is quite a bit considering they don't have much playing time compared to the 1st string.

 

When Arenas, Butler and the other starters were put back in, they kicked it up a notch, almost as if they had something to prove. Kudos to Flip Saunders for motivating his team's starters and gaining a victory over the Philadelphia 76ers.
