Bleav in Wizards

Domo (@Domo8166) of the Wizards of Gallery Place podcast and Oz (@OBtoojiveforyou) from Bullets Forever join for the 1st ever Bleav in Wizards mock draft. In real-time, we made our way through every pick in the first round and explained our rationale for each selection. We didn't know the picks in advance so we had to come up with our selections on the fly. Two popular names for the Wizards' 10th pick were both already off the board, so who did they select in our mock? Tune in to find out!

John Heiser (@Jheiser3) of Bullets Forever joins the show to break down the Wizards' lottery luck, or lack thereof. We cover the Wizards' lottery history, Tommy Sheppard's comments about picking 10th, and what it might look like if they traded the pick for veteran, "win-now" help. Matt tells you who will be #1 on Tommy Sheppard's draft board if they're still available when it's the Wizards' turn to pick. Plus, some of the other names you're likely to hear about in their draft range.

Capital City Go-Go star guard Jordan Goodwin (@JGood_0) joins the show to reflect on his first season in pro basketball. Jordan shares what it was like to play for a G League team that shares a building with it's NBA team and the mentoring he got from guys like Bradley Beal, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, and Kyle Kuzma. He also talks about being called up to the Wizards on a 10-day contract, his relationship with Wes Unseld Jr., the great advice he got from Tommy Sheppard, and playing for Go-Go head coach Mike Williams. Jordan offered some insight into teammates Isaiah Todd, Kyree Walker, and veteran leader Greg Monroe. Making it in the G League isn't easy and it can be a grind, which Jordan also sheds some light on. If you're at all curious what life is like for a player just on the cusp of making an NBA roster and some behind-the-scenes details of the Wizards organization, you're going to want to hear what he has to say in this episode!

Osman Baig (@OBtoojiveforyou) and Kevin Broom (@So_Wizards) are back for another Bullets Forever 3Pt Play! We all know the expression that hindsight is 20-20 so we thought it would be fun to fire up the time machine and rehash each of the Wizards' drafts over the last decade. We discuss what they got right, where they missed, and the flaws in their logic along the way. We identify who would have been better to select, who we liked at the time, and whether the players that fans wanted actually panned out. Plus, Matt tries really hard to defend the Isaiah Todd trade/pick. Let us know what you think and if you want us to go further back and do the decade prior to this as well.

Osman Baig (@OBtoojiveforyou) of Bullets Forever joins the pod to wrap up the season. We discuss Wes Unseld Jr. and Tommy Sheppard's exit interview comments on the season and plans for the offseason. We also cover Kristaps Porzingis' comments and evaluate the play of Deni Avdija, Rui Hachimura, and Corey Kispert to end the season. Pretty much everyone in the organization expressed the desire to add a traditional point guard. Oz and Matt break down how realistic that is and who is likely to fill that void. Plus, the Wizards seem destined for the #10 pick in the NBA Draft. Who are the names to know in that range?

Brendan (@threezustrist) from the Wizards of Gallery Place podcast joins the show to break down the Wizards' comprehensive win over the Mavericks. We discuss Spencer Dinwiddie's comments about going to the playoffs while the Wizards go to the offseason and KCP's comments about making sure Dinwiddie didn't leave DC with a win. Matt issues an apology for being critical of KCP at times early in the season and we cover the recent strong play of Deni Avdija, Rui Hachimura, and Corey Kispert. We also talked about the Wizards' need for a defensive leader and how Wes Unseld Jr. should incentivize defense through playing time next year. Plus, an update on the Capital City Go-Go, who are one of the top 2 teams in the G League's Eastern Conference heading into the playoffs.

Osman Baig (@OBtoojiveforyou) and Kevin Broom (@So_Wizards) are back for another Bullets Forever 3Pt Play! We discuss the Wizards being held to 13 points in a quarter, another Fool's Gold comeback, their especially disappointing play over the last 10 games, and questioning why the vets are still playing so much. Then we get into this week's major topic: Bradley Beal's recent media appearances and his comments on how to improve the Wizards next year. Beal talked about why DC isn't more of a free agent destination and we assess how much of that Beal is actually responsible for. Beal also talked about the need to trade to acquire talent and we try to poke some holes in that team building logic. Plus, should Wes Unseld Jr. take more heat for the Wizards continually coming out flat? Can he motivate guys to win? And Matt also tells you why Jerry Stackhouse would be the perfect assistant coach for this team.
