BTW dimecats, I think filtering any squidoo fishing links would be good. Well, seeing as Arenas doesn’t have a reputation for winning, I don’t think it will affect him that badly.

This is the preseason. It's rather presumptuous to base any real expectations from these games (other than injuries... thanks JuJu). I don't expect there to be any real fan base for the Wizards in Europe anyway (or Hornets, for that matter). If anything, Gilbert fans, but even that's stretching it. As a whole, global fans are probably more into Kobe and Bron, cause Nike markets the shit outta 'em. I’m proud of my Hornets, but seriously. This is the preseason.

Scott has been playing Julian and Posey together and they've been looking good on the court together. Posey isn't taking Julian's minutes. The only starter in danger of losing his minutes might be Mo. Julian hurt his ankle which is why he didn’t play many minutes today.

The Wizards were shorthanded without 3 or 4 of their starters - No Arenas, Jamison, Haywood, Daniels. Still they very poor in the first half. Wizards played better in the second but not well enough to save face. Great start by the Hornets in the first quarter.
