Washington Wizards: Why Nene Will Still Play An Important Role This Season

When the Washington Wizards decided to change their system this season, everyone was excited to finally see John Wall and Bradley Beal play in an up-tempo offense.

Wall, in particular, has never played with other players who are capable of thriving in transition and playing a fast-paced brand of basketball. Wall, who’s the fastest player in the NBA, was forced to play alongside veteran players who weren’t able to play as fast as the point guard would’ve liked.

Even in Randy Wittman‘s archaic offense, Wall still totaled up the most assists in the league and made the All-Star team for two consecutive seasons.
