The Washington Wizards might’ve hit rock bottom. Washington is 3-9, have lost six out of their last eight games and just dropped a game to the Philadelphia 76ers a few nights ago. Yuck.

John Wall is a sight to see and Bradley Beal will fill it up from time to time, but this is not a good team. It’s not even an OK team. The Wizards can’t play defense (they’re ranked 27th in the NBA) and even when they do come up with a stop, they struggle enough to score.

I’m not sure when the “should the Wizards trade John Wall” think pieces will begin to flow in, but I’m pretty sure we’re close.
