I say we win this one. We got our stuff together and Butler has emerged to make a new Big 3!

Wizards should win in a close one

[MJG]

I too am thinking win here. We played the Lakers close on the road just a bit ago, and we've played especially well against solid teams in the past few. I see no reason for us to slow down here, we should take this one, though it probably won't be easy.

[Big Mike]

Wizards played terrible against the Lakers last time especially Arenas and Jamison with their combined 11-39 shooting and still had a chance to win. Wiz at home and the new lineup I feel good about this game.

[adarsh1]

this game should be a great atmosphere..u noe what i am talking about

[One on One]

I can't believe Kwame's return just gets one little blurb in the Post. I'm really looking forward to this. Both teams are playing pretty well of late.

What you'd expected, a half of front cover page story on Kwame in the WP with the title reading "Welcome back Kwame", I don't think so, that dude is gonna get it bigtime when he steps on the Court at the MCI Center.

[byrondarnell66]

Calvin Booth has the worst hands ive ever seen he can't even hold onto a rebound. We are getting beat down in our own gym, down 9 at the half.

[MJG]

It was close, but we won, and that's what counts.
