The Washington Wizards have one of the most dynamic backcourts the NBA has to offer, with John Wall and Bradley Beal. Though, through two games, that hasn’t seemed to matter.

Even though not many expected the Wizards to be a contender in the Eastern Conference this season, many did expect this team to at the very least be in the playoff race.

The fact that this team is 0-2 to start the season isn’t great. In fairness, it isn’t the end of the world either. It could be better, though.
