.:Washington Wizards:. [5-3] Poor Shooting Costs the Wizards

[Tupik]

Nice win, Arenas is really playing like a MVP, keep it up!

Good win, two players in the 40s, that is hard, but its ok with the wizards.

Gilbert and Antawn combined for more than half the team's points, that's absolutely mind-boggling for me since I can barely score and get over 30 with only one player in my games.

I didn't like the Stevenson for Dooling trade to be honest though. I guess I'm too big of a Stevenson fan... But then again, he'd probably be lynched by a Magic fan mob if he came back to Orlando.

Detroit defense looks the same with Ben Wallace as they only let 93 points in tonight but Poor shooting by the Wizards in the first 3 quarters cost them the game.

The Washington Wizards have slumped to 5 wins and 3 losses because of a poor shooting effort in the first 3 quarters. The Washington Wizards only managed to score 24 in the 2nd and 3rd quarters while packing on 40 points in the last to reduce the deficit from 29 points to 9 at the end of the game. Gilbert Arenas spoke to us after the game and said, "Our offense just didn't flow. But their defense was great."

Rasheed Wallace was awarded the player of the game award with 25 points, 14 rebounds, 4 assists, 4 blocks and 3 steals. Chauncey Billups was important down the stretch with 30 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists.
