Our friends over at Total Sports Blog captured this picture of a random Washington Bullets fan rocking a throwback #42 jersey and set it our way. There are few Wizards/Bullets fans out there so I’m not surprised that this person is old, hobbled, and afraid to show her face. I wouldn’t want to be recognized as a Washington fan either.
The real meat to this story is whose jersey is she rocking? Because of her jacket all that we know is that it’s a #42 Washington Bullets. My first thought was that it was Wes Unseld but then I remembered that he was #41. I did some digging and here’s the potential options:
1. Mark Acres (1993) – I don’t know a thing about Mark but I’m going out on a limb and saying that he’s a white dude. *Update* Just checked and he most certainly is (though I couldn’t find him in a Bullets jersey). He only averaged 4.8 ppg in the 7 games that he started for the Bullets so I’m guessing that it’s not him.
2. Greg Ballard (1978-85) – He was on the 1978 Washington Bullets

Well, here goes another coaching post about the Washington Wizards. I've stated before that I believe Randy Wittman should come back. But today, I'm going to play devil's advocate and wonder what happens if he doesn't.
Mike D'antoni? No thanks.
Stan Van Gundy? Nope, I'm good.
These marquee names that might become available for the Wizards are not what...

Rashard Lewis' salary follows him around wherever he goes.
The maximum contract Lewis received from the Magic in the summer of 2007 has been an albatross hanging around his neck, forcing higher expectations on him and an impact his role could not produce. The Magic asked him to be more of a spot-up shooter and floor spacer in their 1-in, 4-out offense centered around Dwight...
