TEAMS: Washington Wizards, Charlotte Bobcats
JaVale McGee scored 22 points and had 10 rebounds as the Washington Wizards defeated the Charlotte Bobcats for the second time in a week, 102-99 on Saturday night.
The matchup between two teams tied for the fewest wins in the NBA came down to the final shot, but Matt Carroll's 3-point attempt at the buzzer fell short.
McGee had a chance to seal the game with less than 6 seconds to go, but missed two foul shots. But that was about all McGee didn't do right, as shot 9 of 14 from the field. Like many others this season, McGee exposed Charlotte's poor interior defense, using an effective hook shot in the lane.
John Wall added 13 points and 10 assists for the Wizards (4-16).
Kemba Walker became only the third Bobcats (3-18) player to register a triple-double, recording 20 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists.

Desagana Diop has a One-Foot Shooting Range
As you can see in Desagana Diop's free throw last night, anything outside of a foot has a rare chance of going in. At least the technique is there, unlike Chuck Hayes and Joakim Noah. Do big men still have to make 10 free throws in a row before they leave practice? [Follow me @TravisHouser]
What Rashard Lewis tells us about any chance that Darko is ever amnestied...
Rashard Lewis is the second highest paid player in the league and was not amnestied this year despite being massively overpaid.
Why?
I think it was because of the fact that 'only' $10 MM of his contract is guaranteed next year.
But if had been amnestied, a team could pick him up off amnesty waivers and the Wiz would be on the hook for the whole $23 MM, minus the...
