Wizards: Quid Pro Quo


While I'll agree with Rosen that the WizKids have much to work on in the defense department, here are some things that may have been overlooked in last night's game:

1. The Lakers are a unique group of lanky forwards and guards, and that presented problems both offensively and defensively for the considerably shorter (and less athletic) Wizards.

2. It's harder to break down East-West matchups in comparison to inter-conference matchups because teams who don't see each other but twice a year don't really prepare the same. While all the Wizards are aware of Kobe (and to a lesser extent, Kwame Brown), who knew that center Brian Cook could hit a 3-pointer?

3. For the Stat Lovers: actually, the Wizards were par for course and it was the Lakers who came up sort defensively this time around.

4. Kobe hinted (actually he didn't hint; he was pretty clear) that Gilbert Arenas was a chucker, which is funny considering that their stats this season are fairly similiar.
