Same old Wizards

Another game, another late collapse. Can't blame the injuries because the Wizards have been doing this since well before Agent 0 went down. Alas, Arvis could not get it going against the Nets, managing a feeble 3 points in 27 minutes as his sweet (J) was more suited to house-building than point-scoring.

Stat line:
3 points
2 rebounds
1 assist
1 steal

1/7 FG

More Predictions

Tonight the Wizards will break their streak of 2 consecutive moral victories and achieve an authentic victory over the New Jersey Nets. Andray Blatche will make a triumphant return to the court backing up our man Jarvis. (Aside: Was it strange to anyone else that Blatche went from DNP, coaches decision to starter when Antawn Jamison went down? How does Eddie Jordan come up with his rotation and substitution patterns?) Our hero will have another great game and start ruining fantasy basketball seasons by continuing his break-out in the midst of the fantasy playoffs, killing championship-bound squads as a late pick-up like a 2004 Billy Volek.

Predicted Stats:
26 points
5 rebounds
2 assists

11/21 FG
4/8 3PT

Jarvis Hayes, I'm sorry

So we created this blog to chronicle the rise of Jarvis Hayes as the savior of the Wizards' season, and after one decent game against the Cavaliers, I scaled back my predictions to try and play the odds instead of sticking to my convictions. I deserve the shame so generously heaped on Eddie Jordan.

Stat line:
29 points (career high)
3 rebounds
3 assists
2 steals

12-22 FG
5-8 3PT

Final Score: Jarvis 1, Haters 0.

I am angry

Jarvis, the chosen one, is having his best game of the season and Eddie Jordan SITS HIM FOR THE FIRST 2 MINUTES OF OVERTIME! Alas, our hero could not make up the 6 point deficit his team had built while he was riding the pine. Perhaps someone should schedule a lesson in Arvinomics for Coach Ordan.

The New Mr. 50

Although he fell short of our lofty expectations in his first game as the newly crowned savior of the Wizards' season, he showed some positive signs. 50% from the field and beyond the arc and solid defense against the 36th President of the United States. Sadly, the result for the team was no different than usual, as they lost the lead late and went down in defeat.

But a new challenge awaits tonight, as our man squares off against the New Jersey Nets and half man, half effort, Vince Carter. Although they have struggled in recent times against New Jersey, I'm feeling good about this game.

Predicted Stats:
