Wall and the Wizards would be deadly with an athletic PF that can play the pick and roll with him.

If only...:wow::wow::wow:

(And they just had to get good this year, so he's no longer disgruntled. :dry:)

i was telling brehs.

He was struggling shooting for a minute and wasnt attacking the basket this season. I really think his back was bothering him.

But what I was telling people is that his all around game was kind of on beast mode. He was controlling the game, not turning it over, setting his teammates up, and defending well. HE was looking elite in those other areas to the point that I was actually ok with him not scoring.

He had a game against Cleveland last week where he couldnt hit a shot for shyt, yet dominated the game and got the Wizards up 27. Even in the game where Kyrie went off for 41, Wall was doing those things well and they had to move Kyrie off the ball.

Its clear that scoring is what gets people going but he has been looking like the best pure point in the eastern conference this season even before this outburst.

I think he's more of a true PG to be honest, he's always been just a jumper away from being a monster. He scores out of necessity rather than it being his real mentality.
My point was: Has there ever been a PG who dominate the ball so much and who shot less than 45% that have won a championship. If you can name me one in the past 20 years than :manny:

He has definitely made the leap we were all hoping. I was at tonight's game and it was nice to see his improvements but he can still be wildly out of control. I don't think he is any where near a top 5 PG right now but he definitely has room to grow.
