How can you know anything about basketball and compare those two games? Wall was exhausted, played 274 minutes in the series and was asked to do more than anyone else. Hell, the whole team been looking tired for a minute now, since before the playoffs even. And he isn't the kinda guy who had the shot to score when tired. Nothing like Harden just falling apart in the playoffs again.

Some of ya'all think these guys are superhuman and imagine fatigue has no effect on them or something.



negged, john wall at no point in this game gave up.

That was a good idea, I followed suit.

Lebron never gets tired yet we make excuses for these little pg's :jbhmm:

This seems to be a new thing of saying a players tired whenever he fails down the stretch

44 minutes, and he played the entire 2nd half.

the difference in this series was depth and coaching. your team won, no need to pile on the man for shyt out of his control.

You act like Russ and Bron don't log in heavy minutes in these crucial games.

I get it: the Wiz have no bench depth and Wall and Beal had to log in extra minutes. However, there's no reason why Beal is able to kick into another gear in the 2nd half while Wall falls from the face of the planet. Wall looked like he was gonna die on the court.

No way in hell is that man the best PG in the East.

Specifically remember him looking off otto who was posting up IT, and deciding to ISO and shoot a fadeaway 18 footer, which he bricked.

You sound stupid.

Jennings was like a -30 for the series

What was Olynyk's plus minus for the series? He couldn't hit the ocean leading up to this game from what I saw. All you need is people to contribute within the moment. The real issue was defensive rotations. Wiz should've went small. Gortat is a flat footed fossil...Oubre would have helped the Wiz be quicker on rotations and get Al out the paint on offense so John could take it to the basket

If Lebron never gets tired then let that be that. Lebron James is an ongoing conversation as the best to ever do it. No point in bringing his name up as some sort of referendum against Wall, Westbrook or anyone else
