KCP says almost no communication and lack of trust in help D are the major defensive issues for the Wiz:
“Sometimes it feels like we are on the same page on the court and then sometimes it feels like we don’t even know each other.” – 1:29 AM Wayne Cole @waynec0le
“Not frustrated, I want to win; my teammates want to win; we have to be on the same page, but we are not.”
KCP also says the Wizards play pick-up ball, and the team has to “buy-in” in these last 16 to make the “play-in.” – 1:12 AM Sean Highkin @highkin
Josh Hart: “I wish I’d had more heat checks. I’d be pulling up from the logo. Taking shots like Dame.” – 1:12 AM Sean Highkin @highkin
Josh Hart: “I’m not a No. 1 scoring option. I’m not quite a No. 2. I’d say I can be a 2 and a half. I know my role. I know my niche in the league.” – 1:10 AM Sean Highkin @highkin
Josh Hart: “I definitely wish I got to 50. I don’t know when I’m gonna have another night like this. But I’m blessed. I’m happy with 44. I got the Barack Obama.” – 1:09 AM Wayne Cole @waynec0le
KCP says the Wizards lack court communication. – 1:07 AM Portland Trail Blazers @trailblazers
“BARACK OBAMA THAT 44!” 😂

Defense is a real issue for the Wizards at this point. But on the same time Deni Avdija has some really tough nights. 3rd straight game scoreless.

The Wizards look empty at this stage of the season, mentally wise. Especially tonight they have no energy on both ends. The fatigue after the couple of games in LA is clear (plus Porzingis’ absence). Tough stretch #DCAboveAll – 11:29 PM Josh Robbins @JoshuaBRobbins

Lol!! Duane Washington Jr. brought a gallon of Bush’s Chicken’s sweet tea to the press conference after the game. Texas native Myles Turner told him that the local food chain has “FIRE” sweet tea.

The Wizards have no answer for Josh Hart (28 points) KCP leads the wizards with 19. – 11:07 PM Chase Hughes @ChaseHughesNBCS
Not the finest half for the Wizards. They are down 72-54 to the Blazers.
LeBron had 33 in the 2nd half last night vs. the Wiz, but I think Josh Hart was even better in the 1st half tonight: 28 pts, 6 reb, 4 ast, 4 stl – 11:07 PM Casey Holdahl @CHold

In tonight’s first half, Hart scored 28 points on 10-of-14 shooting from the field, including 5-of-8 shooting from three-point range. – 11:05 PM James Boyd @RomeovilleKid
Duane Washington Jr. on his highlight-reel dunk in the 2Q: “Buddy (Hield) had a great blur out screen and it caused some confusion. And I just got downhill and the lane was open so I just took off. The bench was definitely hyped.” #Pacers – 11:05 PM Ava Wallace @avarwallace
Wow. LeBron for 50 one night, Josh Hart for 50 the next. Who knew – 11:04 PM Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater
Warriors get 38 points from Klay Thompson and 30 from Jordan Poole in their first ever start together. Third straight win. Beat the Clippers, Nuggets and now Bucks.

The highest first half point total by a Wizards opponent this season is 75, set by the Spurs on Feb. 25. The Trail Blazers have 62 points with 4:25 remaining in the second quarter. – 10:57 PM James Boyd @RomeovilleKid
Rick Carlisle on Duane Washington Jr.’s hot 2Q: “I had somebody at the table to sub for him. He hit a 3 and play kept going and he hit another 3, and I sent Chris (Duarte) back (to the bench). And then he hit a third 3. … Wash is an aggressive player that’s fearless.” #Pacers – 10:55 PM Casey Holdahl @CHold
