3 Things I Can't Understand About the Media's Take on This Series:
1) I've heard it said a few times that both teams play up-tempo offense but at least the Wiz play defense. Huh? Don't they give up an average of 100 pts. +? The games around 95-97? The Wiz don't play defense. They won't suddenly turn it on in the playoffs if they don't have the pieces. They have some good shot blocking, that's about it.
2) The Wiz have a lot of momentum from winning 3-1 regular series. Well, that should be 2-1, seeing how the last game, no starters played in the 4th b/c it meant nothing to us. And those middle two games were sans Larry. I know you all know this, I just get p**ssed seeing it.
3) The Z/Haywood matchup isn't the key/X-factor. I've heard a few saying it's AV, a few saying it's Arenas, a few saying it's Lebron, a few saying it's Hughes. Z is the best matchup exploitation we have. If we don't take advantage of it, it'll be a tough series to win. I can't believe people are missing this.
Edit: Funny, Narls, we just posted some similar complaints. Looking at ESPN, like me?
Can't wait for this to get started.....
