Why expect a decline in the Washington Wizards?
The three-headed monster of John Wall, Bradley Beal and Otto Porter Jr. continues to be trending up. Each man is moving toward his athletic prime and building chemistry with the other members of this triumvirate whilst seeking to maintain himself as a premier talent at his respective position. Wall is already there, and another two aren’t far behind.
And if you are concerned about the seat, do not be–not for the reason you might expect.
Last year’s second-stringers were dreadful. They routinely squandered leads and dug inescapable holes to the starters. This season’s chair set should not be much better, as Tim Frazier, Jodie Meeks and Mike Scott are not precisely marquee additions. And that’s almost irrelevant.
The non-starters are bad. We are aware that much. On the other hand, the starters continue to be in place, along with the Wizards published an 8.1 net rating last year when Wall, Beal, Porter, Markieff Morris and Marcin Gortat were on the floor together. Even with all the putridity supporting them, they pulled their troops to 49 wins.
