This is why Javale McGee is who he is. After missing a short runner, McGee hustles back on defense, lowering his head in frustration. Only one problem—the Wizards got the offensive rebound and were ready to re-start the offense. Too bad McGee had already run out of the picture. John Wall’s reaction is utterly priceless.

Randy Wittman says Wizards relapsed

The best quote of this quotable Wizards season came from interim coach Randy Wittman, during his first post-game press conference. “You know, it’s like any bad habit we have,” he said then. “If you’re a smoker, you ain’t gonna drop those cigarettes the first day, all right? I’ve got to help them kick some of these bad habits that we’re into. That’s all it is. We’ve...
