Why do you think he burned his bridges in Washington? I thought they really want him back? Either way he would be great and I think we have a shot. He’s the perfect 4 in between Mitch and RJ, along with Gallinari.
Bertans skipped the bubble. Wizards don’t want to pay him what he wants
I know he skipped the bubble, which was expected. Have you seen anything that says Washington doesn't want to pay him what he wants? I haven't seen anything like that. Also, Bertans starting is blocked by Hachimura, which means maybe he will go out to seek a starting spot, which based on fit, would make sense here. But again I haven't seen anything that states he won't get what he wants from Washington. He'd be an awesome fit.
I think most people in the Washington area understood that Bertans already had two earlier knee injuries and was in a contract year. I think they want him back, depending on the price.
I live in the Washington area and local talk radio has no idea what’s going on in Washington. The consensus seems to be that Bradley Beal going off is good for business. There is no pressure to win because the Caps are great. The Nationals just won the World Series. Setting Beal get 50 is good enough. No one thinks they are really trying to win or put something meaningful together. What’s wild to me is no one seems to care
The DC area is all redskins and fair weather Nationals fans
The Wizards aren’t even an afterthought
while DC is a Washington Football Team town historically, I think that's kinda inaccurate recently. This town is hockey obsessed. Probably has something to do with Ovechkin being one of the best goal scorers in NHL history. If I offered free tickts to my DC area raised friends, the Caps tickets would go first, football tix next, then Nats, and people would check their calendars first and call their wives and probably make up a fake excuse before accepting Wiz tix
Yeah it always seems like more Knicks fans than Wiz fans are at the games when they play each-other in DC.
I go to a lot of Wiz games, mostly for free ,I have a friend who works for NBC and I turndown Box seats, and club seats, floor seats simply because the arena sucks, the food, the drinks, to the beers are all terrible.
Supreme is right, i would go to a nationals game or O's game before a wiz game if i had to decide between the 2
You live In Georgia, you go to a lot of Wizards games, but you turn own the better of three classes of seats because the arena sucks. Can you clarify this?
IN my small opinion the closer to the floor who cares about the arena? As for the food and drink, don’t eat there. Most arenas have craft beer and a bar area to satisfy most. If not water is usually pretty standard.
This is why. You turn down floor, box or club level seats?
