Pregame notes
Following Wednesday night’s win in Sacramento, the Wizards return home from its trip out west sitting one behind the play-in places (but effectively two because of tiebreakers with the Chicago Bulls and Toronto Raptors). Tomorrow, Washington faces the New Orleans Pelicans. Buoyed by the two-game win streak, it s time to recommence the trash talk, folks. That 6th, 7th, or 8th seed will be ours.
But when we were struggling, folks down in the bayou were fanning the flames of the #FreeBeal campaign. “Trade him to us,” Pelicans leaflets read. And some of us came close to biting the apple. But here we are, both sitting 11th in our respective conferences.

After a season-high five-game losing streak sent the Spurs spiraling below .500 for the first time since January, San Antonio notched a much-needed dub as they upset the Mavericks behind a last-second go-ahead bucket from DeMar DeRozan. And with the good guys immediately hitting the road for a SEGABABA with the Magic, they won’t have much time to celebrate the end of their recent skid.
Luckily for the Silver and Black, they won’t be the only ones with weary legs as Orlando also participated in a tough tilt with the Milwaukee Bucks less than 24 hours ago. Not only will coach Popovich and crew have the luxury of playing an NBA bottom feeder, but they’ll have the benefit of taking them on while they’re at less than full strength, which should give them a prime opportunity to build some momentum.
