What you are failing to see, is how they lost those games.
How many of those games did they have the lead in with under 5mins to play?
As a wizards fan, I can tell you first hand. The Wizards could easily have 10more wins than they do right now
They KEPT losing games they had big leads in. Would lose it in the fourth quarter
There was so many games the Wizards lost by 5 or less this season. It was frustrating. Not the loss, but how we lost.
We had OKC dominated in OKC... Let them get come back, force overtime.. we lost.
We lost to ATL who sucks with luck. We had like a 5/6losing streak.. Every game we lost by a few points
I knew this would make us better later in the season, and now its paying off. We been winning close games now.
We winning not close games too. We maintained a lead which is something we struggle with.
The current team is mentally on another level than they EVER have been since John Wall got here (Tru Story)
We are the 3rd best team in the east if not the 2nd. Beating the breaks off of Miami once won't convince everyone.
We just swept Chicago.. We swept Detroit last week. We face them again tonight.
There are only 2 teams I fear. San Antonio and Indiana. The rest of the teams in this league can't see us
Well, Clippers and Warriors seem to have our number too

But I feel that was more because they caught us while we was still dealing with confidence issues
