Anthony Davis met with the D.C. media on Wizards cleanout day. I asked if he’s committed to playing in Washington next season.
“I’m under contract,” he said. “I love my money.” He said it with a smile. But he also said he’s intrigued by some of the off-court infrastructure…

@GregFinberg No. You can’t flip that switch. You can’t go from good cop to bad cop and you can’t go from lose at all cost coach to win at all cost coach. The players will never see him as that guy, even if they love him and want to play for him
English
Should the Wizards retain Brian Keefe as head coach for next season?
English
@GregFinberg Shows how pathetic the lottery is. Worst team in the league with only a 14% chance of getting the number 1 pick. I feel like you shouldn’t be able to fall more than 2 spots from your standing.
English
The Wizards have secured a 14% chance at winning the No. 1 pick.

@ManagerTactical @amcalabrese12 This is what it is to be a part of American soccer culture. Where good try is the goal and unlucky is the cope. Soccer is the only sport in America where the losing team doesn’t even care when they lose.

@amcalabrese12 They had a bang average World Cup with 1 win in 4 games.
Wtf is he on about?

Christian Pulisic: “I remember people were doubting us after that (September 2022) camp, we didn’t have a great camp. But at the end of the day, we go in and have a great World Cup.”
“It’s all behind us. It’s better to happen now and we’re gonna figure it out when it counts.” 🇺🇸

Guy just had one of the most dominant seasons in recent college basketball history but we're gonna spend the next three months hearing about what he "can't" do

Bill Simmons questions Cam Boozer’s ceiling in the NBA: “I watched a lot of Duke over the last 5 weeks. His big go to move is he basically bullies you and does these little spin moves and ends up with the same little jump hook or turn around. His goal is always to get as close to the basket as possible. Which you can do in High school and even do in College. I don’t know if you can do that in the NBA as comfortably” (Via Bill Simmons Podcast)

@2_Many_Opinions @OBtoojiveforyou Love was an elite passer and a more than capable shooter. Not sure how this comparison as become so popular. I think the better comparison is Tyler Hansborough
English
@OBtoojiveforyou Love is Cam's ceiling. Love was 6'10". I bet Boozer measures 6'8" or less without shoes. He's a smaller Love. We'll see if that makes Cam less productive as a rebounder.

I can’t believe Cameron Boozer’s college career just ended like that…
English
@OBtoojiveforyou He’s fine. Not a franchise player. Maybe could be Draymond Green?
English
Real people actually think this guy is just gonna be a role player in the NBA. Obvious future superstar.

Cameron Boozer’s freshman season: 22.5 PPG 10.2 RPG 4 APG 55.6% FG — 39.1% 3P 1.4 SPG 2nd all-time in BPM (17.4) ACC POTY + Tournament MVP Consensus 1st-team All American The greatest statistical season we’ve seen from a collegiate player ever. Truly, an otherworldly talent.
English
@barstoolsports They play like a really stupid team. It’s either players with low IQ or lack of preparation from the coaching staff but they looked like a really dumb team frequently
English
“I cost our team our season.”
-Cayden Boozer on his turnover that gave UConn the shot for the win
English
I can’t believe how bad the Goalkeeping pool is for the USMNT. We’ve had so many of our Keepers in the EPL over the years who started for us. Tim Howard, Brad Friedal, Kasey Keller, Brad Guzan…..
How has our strongest historical position become one of our weakest?
English
@KevinOConnor Meanwhile the wizards fall to 6th and get a depth piece player. Brutal
English
This is why teams tank. It’s not just for a chance to get #1. It’s for the pick floor. Utah falling from best odds to #5 was the “worst case scenario” on lotto night. Yet they still might’ve landed a star.

Ace Bailey, simply put, has the footwork of a ball-in-hands superstar. Like... what the actual? He's 19.
English
@ManagerTactical What about Dest? I feel like he’s a game changer. I also think Reyna gives us play making ability that no other player does. I don’t care about his club troubles
English
If you want a positive USMNT 🇺🇸 outlook:
If they play how they did in the 1st half vs 🇧🇪, Richards + Adams return and Pulisic catches good form, we could win 1-2 World Cup knockout games.
If you want a negative USMNT 🇺🇸 outlook:
If they play the way they did in the 2nd half vs 🇧🇪, we will get grouped at home.
If you want a realistic USMNT 🇺🇸 outlook:
The 🇧🇪 game won’t matter, the 🇺🇸 will advance from the World Cup group stage and lose to the 1st decent opponent they face.

No new logo. I guess all of us who were hoping for a spear are going to have to learn to cope…🤷🏻♂️
Black alternates are staying - just getting a makeover

@Me43823499 @Tiller56 I literally said I don’t know this. But going from a great rookie year to an awful second year screams that he didn’t prepare like he did previously. And if you’re an undersized overachiever, the last thing you can do is get out worked.

I don’t see this staff giving up on Sainristil. Coaches REALLY like him and I believe he’s in their present and future plans.
I know he played poorly last year but who on D didn’t?
DQ is going to task Jones with developing/maximizing both Mikey and Amos.
Don’t see Delane at 7.
English
@TimBontemps The lottery is stupid. Had the wizards gotten their rightful pic over the last decade, they still wouldn’t be trying to tank Now. The lottery is kept bad Team’s bad. The best run league in the entire world, is the NFL and they don’t have the lottery. Just do what they do
English
Adam Silver: “Going into next season, the incentives (regarding the lottery and tanking) will be completely different than they are now.”
Tim Bontemps@TimBontemps
Adam Silver on tanking: “We are going to fix this — full stop.”

@GlassJoeJP @ladygaga Ok. That’s much better. I thought this was the equivalent of a dad saying he babysat his kids. My bad! Good stuff.
