With the Washington Wizards set to face the Indiana Pacers Wednesday night, it seemed like a great time to catch up with current Pacers journalist and Bullets Forever alum Tony East. In this episode, we talked about what makes Tyrese Haliburton special, Haliburton's hamstring injury, and what the Pacers do well and not so well before diving into the Wizards. Tony's attention is primarily on the Pacers, but he watches a lot of Wizards basketball, which leads to some great insights into how Washington's rebuild is going. We hit on a number of Wizards topics, including: the struggles of Jordan Poole who the Wizards are likely to trade whether "showcasing" players makes a difference the improvement of Deni Avdija the puzzling approach to developing Bilal Coulibaly into a future NBA star. This was a fun conversation about two teams going in different directions. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sowizards/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sowizards/support

In this episode, I'm joined by Bullets Forever's Osman Baig to discuss the state of the Wizards. As I wrote in my big picture check-up on January 3, they're still bad. Oz and I drilled into concerns about how the Wizards are managing the development of French rookie Bilal Coulibaly. Suffice to say, we have concerns, specifically about his lack of involvement in the team's offense. As we discussed during the podcast, of the team's 11 rotation players, Coulibaly is 11th in per minute touches. In other words, he gets the ball less frequently than any other player in the rotation. We also delved into the team's odd focus on forcing turnovers defensively. Reportedly, this is because the front office, coaches, and analytics staff believe this is because it emphasizes being in the right place defensively. I tried — and failed — to recreate their work on this. Last, we talked about Corey Kispert and driving to the basket. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sowizards/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sowizards/support

We discuss the positive takeaways from the game and try to sift through all of the hot takes floating around to make sense of what actually happened during the game and where the Wizards go from here. A lot of the discussion focuses on roster construction, the over-reliance on small guards under Tommy Sheppard, and how Wes Unseld Jr. can adjust his rotation to mitigate any roster shortcomings. We also spent a good amount of time on Deni Avdija, Rui Hachimura, and the other young forwards.

Based on recent draft picks and the Wizards' Summer League additions, it's questionable whether the player archetypes they prioritize are actually all that valuable or effective in today's NBA. Based on that, we discuss how valuable Corey Kispert's skillset actually is and who are his closest statistical comps (aka dopplegangers). You might be surprised to find out whose statistical profile most closely mirrors his so far. We also make the case for why Corey Kispert and Deni Avdija should have played at Summer League.
