If Wednesday’s loss to the Philadelphia 76ers was something of a moral victory, last night’s debacle against the Brooklyn Nets was an immoral defeat.
The Nets kept things close by missing an array of open threes during the first half. They remembered how to shoot in the third quarter and turned the game into a genuine stomping.
This was a dispiriting beatdown, in part because the Wizards seemed so content to take it. The team’s “stars” did little aside from take shots and commit turnovers.
On the bright side, Bilal Coulibaly was active on offense with aggressive drives and nice finishes.
