Scott Brooks was a bit elusive with his answers after the Wizards 117-113 loss to the Toronto Raptors, but he was spot-on when he was asked to assess his team’s 0-2 record.
If it’s a two-game season, you know what, we had a bad year. But it’s not, we got a lot of basketball left.
He’s absolutely correct about the amount of time the Wizards have to “overcome” this two-game losing streak. Given the fight that his team demonstrated–especially John Wall and Bradley Beal–in the fourth quarter to cut Toronto’s lead from 13 to three points, it isn’t unreasonable to think that momentum could carry over to Monday’s game in Portland.
