washington wizards

It is awesome when you see someone make a sweet block on a shot, but Washington Wizards center JaVale McGee decided that despite the ball descending into the hoop he would swat it three rows back.  As cool as it looked, everyone in the crowd knew it was goaltending.  Keep up the good work JaVale, your team is really benefiting from your 'smart' play.

You know you've found a diamond in the rough when even your head coach says this is like a miracle. Heck, I expect to see Knicks coach Mike D'antoni kiss Jeremy Lin and thank him for perhaps saving his job. Such is the state of the NY Knicks, a team that was dead and done a week ago, is now more then revived by the incredible story of Jeremy Lin...

Okay, first it was just New Jersey. Can't get excited about that. Then it was Utah- without Amare and Melo. Now the Wizards without those two stars again. Yes, it is time to at least be curious about this new guy that was a castoff by two clubs this year...

Get that weak stuff outta here!  Not only did JaVale McGee of the Washington Wizards complete reject the Blazers' Wesley Matthews, he was able to maintain possession.  This great block got me thinking.

Now that there are just 2 days left in 2010, I thought it would be a good time to look ahead to 2011.  So I've come up with a list of things I'm hoping from my sports teams next year.
