The wizards FO are now going to say if they had wall and everyone else healthy this year we would make the playoffs
As much as I hate to give them credit, they are probably right.
They're 9.5 games behind Milwaukee and if you recall, they lost a ton load of games early in the season by one or two posessions or in overtime. That stuff was hard to watch.
They also are 6th overall defensively. They are 2nd, I believe, behind Indiana since Wall came back.
The Wizards are the only top 10 defensive team not in the postseason picture.
The sucky thing is, watch Grunfeld trade our lottery pick for a veteran (s) on an expiring contract like he did in 2009, just so they can make the postseason with this core group of players.
I know this draft is horrible, but its going to be real bad in June when he trades our pick and that pick down the line turns into a valuable piece.
this allows ernie the gawd grunfeld one more year
Ernie will also do whatever he can to keep the squad together and rest on his laurels and hope for a healthy season to bail him out and get him ANOTHER extension in 2014.
He and Randy Wittman are on lame duck status next season. Ted gave them 2 year deals on the cheap last Spring.
