In BBS. He has to reflect his incredible real life performance in the sim league world. Cause you know, he's one of the best PGs in the league right now. Way better than that Arenas fucker.

Raptors > The Wizards ... for the past 2 seasons ... and probably for many more to come. Arenas = Cancerous Sore That's just a dumb comment. The Wizards have been absolutely ravished by injuries the past two seasons so that certainly isn't a fair comparison. The last time this team was completely healthy they were first in the East. Arenas is a good teammate and is in no way a 'cancerous sore'. When healthy, the Wizards >>>> the Raptors.

Sorta flat TC here.
Peja's TC wasn't great, but he'll still shoot the lights out, so whatever. Manu's rebounding up, the rest stays the same. Looks like he's our PG this year, too, since FA didn't yield one. Toine looks nice, should be a real good 3rd option for us.

And I'm not even mentioned the ridiculousness that has been T.J. Ford. Tell you what, when the Wizards actually have a better record than the Raps, feel free to chirp, until then, your team is balls, my team is going to be in the playoffs for years to come and has the smartest man in all of basketball guiding them there.

We had an OK TC. Outside of JO there really wasn't anything good.

The Raptors had a better record than the Wizards last season without Gilbert and Caron coming down the stretch. Until those two both went down with injuries this team was first in the East. A mere two seasons ago the Wizards had a better record than the Raptors and put up an excellent fight against the Cavs. 2004/2005? Wizards had a better record. This year? The Wizards are floating around .500 without their two star players for a large portion of the season. So basically, the Raptors have had a better record than the Wizards just last season. This year, the Wizards have played without Arenas all season and Caron for quite a few games. Etan Thomas had heart surgery at the beginning of the year. I fully, 100% believe the Wizards are a better team than the Raptors when both are at full strength. By the way, the season series? I'm fairly certain the Wizards won three games to just one for the Raptors. And injuries certainly can't be used as an excuse there. The Wiz were without either Gilbert in one game and Caron/Gilbert in the other three. Yeah. Shhhh.

What was the Wizards record with Gilbert this season? And whatever man, keep floating excuses, I can get my Adam Morrison on and just point at the scoreboard. Raps - 5th in the East, Wizards - 6th in the East. Aw, so close. Although I really hope you pass us before the season ends, I want the Magic in the first round, we can take them, but the Cavs will just fucking destroy us.
I don't watch hockey. They play that shit on ice man. That's stupid.

They play that shit on ice man. That's stupid. I'll point to the scoreboard; Wizards - 3, Raptors - 1. Nice try though. Gilbert played in eight injury-plagued games this season in which they went 3-5. However, he clearly wasn't himself. Once again, an awful point to make on your part. Basing a player on eight injury stricken games? Right. You're batting .000 in this one. And the NHL is more entertaining than the NBA.

Raptors have a better record against the rest of the league, so I'll take that.
His eight injury plagued games are the only representation we have of a healthy Wizards team this season. Is your statement that because they were good before he missed major time with two injuries which have clearly affected his game they'll be equally as good once he returns a better point? Your argument is based entirely on conjecture. He hasn't played this season. When he has, his team played poorly. So ... I guess we'll have to see how they play when he comes back, because right now, you certainly can't say, with 100% certainty, that they're better than the Raptors, who have a better record than the Wiz both with and without Gilbert.
Baseball is pretty boring too.
And yeah, you get that a lot when you live in Toronto and Ottawa for your entire life. Believe me, I watch 3 or 4 hockey games a week because I go to the bar and drink at friend's houses. Doesn't translate for me. Ice man. What?

Clearly Gilbert was not healthy during those first eight games so that would not be representative of a healthy Wizards squad. Yeah, we'll see. I do think Gilbert will come back strong from this injury. He rushed back at the beginning of the year and it came back to bite him in the ass. Now, he took his time in rehabbing. A healthy Wizards team (provided they get a few games to gel at the end of the season) would not be something a team wants to see in the playoffs - I can guarantee that much.
And they play basketball on a big fucking piece of wood. Football and baseball are played on grass/fake grass. Point being? I can respect it not clicking with a person though - to each is own.
Hockey is extremely difficult to play and I find it to be more entertaining than both the NBA and the MLB.

Yeah, that's the other thing - I played hockey for like 8 years of my childhood because that's what kids do in Canada. Everyone plays hockey. Ridiculous.
I'm just NBA, NCAA hoops and NFL. MLB to the extent I know how the Jays are doing and will go see like 5 or 6 games throughout the summer.

I've played/loved hockey most of my life so I'm obviously biased. The NHL playoffs are so exciting and intense - try watching some playoff games this year. I truly believe anybody that watches a few playoff games with an open mind would become a fan of the game.

Dude ... I live in Toronto and Ottawa. How many playoff hockey games do you think I've missed throughout my life?
I'm not sure you understand the mentality people apply to hockey here. You can't avoid it. Bars rarely play a different sport. I'm one of the only people I even know who doesn't like hockey. When the playoffs are on, if you want to drink, there's only one thing you have the option of watching.
I've also watched every Olympics, World Championships AND World Juniors game for as long as I can remember, and they all suck too.

And yeah, I certainly know the mentality towards hockey in Canada - it's absolutely insane. I'd love it, haha. Pittsburgh has one of the better hockey markets in the States though so I can't really complain.
