Wizards Coach Randy Wittman perhaps put Jan Vesely in the starting lineup a bit prematurely, as his can’t-measure-him-by-the-box-score contributions couldn’t compare to the actual production of Trevor Booker, who has been on a tear since replacing Vesely with the first five.

Wizards center JaVale McGee had two of his best statistical games of the season recently. The fourth-year player from Nevada posted a season-high 24 points in a loss to the Heat Friday and 22 and 11 in a win over the Pistons Sunday. A new asthma medication is being credited for his recent success.

If Nick Young is shooting imaginary arrows after hitting three-pointers, JaVale McGee is blowing a kiss to the crowd after hitting a foul line jumper and John Wall has a been-there-done-that nonchalance after knocking down his second three-point attempt in 17 tries, then it’s probably going to be a decent night for the Wizards.

Veteran swingman Maurice Evans has contributed just 73 minutes and 19 points to the Wizards this season, but it sounds like he’s left a far bigger mark verbally. Evans got lots of attention after calling a players-only meeting in early January and then publicly ripping the team’s “sense of entitlement,” and his message has softened much since then.

I’m really trying to put together the right words to delineate my thoughts and feelings after the Wizards’ throttling of the Portland Trailblazers last night.
It kind of feels like that Coors Light train just blindly swept through with a drafty snow shower, instilling a refreshing ambience of excitement and joy amongst Wizards fans. Oh, and the blonde chick with the fancy knit...

Rashard Lewis fought through a sore right knee (and a funny heckler in the stands) to reach a notable NBA milestone in Detroit last night. Reports the WaPo: “Rashard Lewis didn’t play in the first half of the Wizards’ 98-77 win over the Detroit Pistons and was heckled for a large portion of a game by a fan seated near the visiting team bench.
