Over the weekend, on a cool Saturday night. The Wizards lost another hot 1st half, cold 2nd half type of game to the Cleveland Cavaliers 135-116 in Capital One Arena. While the young Wizards don’t have a lot of expectations being placed on them beyond just going out there and playing their games with the goal of development, they will have a tough stretch that could prove to be the first of many stretches. Here’s the next 10 games and my prediction.
1. Monday, October 28 @ - Hawks L
2. Wednesday, October 30 - Hawks W
3. Saturday, November 02 - Heat L
4. Monday, November 04 - Warriors L
5. Friday, November 08 - @ Grizzlies L
6. Sunday, November 10 - @ Magic L
7. Monday, November 11 - @ Rockets L
8. Wednesday, November 13 - @ Spurs L
9. Friday, November 15 - @ Hawks W
10. Sunday, November 17 - Pistons W
Keys to development for the Hawks game tonight.
- Have a balanced defense and communicate
- Win the rebound battle
- Make Trae Young play hero, shut down the supporting cast
