The other was named Bradley Beal. Yes, I’m aware you had heard of them before! However, up to that point neither had played particularly well but my Magic 8 Ball who moonlights as a Crystal Ball on weekends in Manhattan whispered in my ear that he felt a breakout was coming on for both of them and I always listen to what he says so here’s what I told you back on December 14: Right now Jordan is 61% owned.

Announcing Fail: Wizards broadcasters thought air ball was game winner against Pistons (VIDEO)
