    They didn’t understand the impact of trading you honestly.. killed a lot of fans that day and they wonder why nobody comes to the games anymore. People running the franchise will never be a successful winning group. Love you John. Should have traded Beal instead

      @@BrothaMan98 That’s not even fair because we sat there and waited all that time just for him to come back so they can run them back one more time, just for them to trade him?? For a player who only last of the year who didn’t care about the city and barely made a bubble playoff game at the loss. You don’t do your franchise player like that at the end of the day. Especially somebody who deserve to run it back one more time. They did him dirty

    • @BrothaMan98

      @Ryan Jackson why run it back after years of it not working? Right before he went down in 2018-2019. The Wizards were still playing like a dumpster fire then. They were bad. They upgraded when they got Russ, it's simple as that. The same thing happened to DeMar. He got done dirty. He cared about the city. He actually took them to a Conference Finals, something that Wall couldn't do. And he got traded for a player who didn't care to be there

      @@BrothaMan98 #1 the raptors BUILT a team around him and basketball is a team sport and if you want to use that logic they have not reach the same results with Russ as they did with wall. Ernie grunfield is not masai. Wizards have not had back to back or a second round appearance in the playoffs. Like what are you talking about? Are you a wizards fan? Did you even watch wizards games growing up? You need to use contexts in your arguement. They upgraded?? How?? A player that spend one year here and then gets traded? And now we’re stuck in the middle with a Bradley Beal who isn’t John wall. Like stop

    The wiz organization hasn’t been the same in my personal opinion when John got traded, also took the wiz so many damn years to understand Ernie wasn’t the man for the job. That one year could’ve got Steph and ended up with some euro bum whose only highlight was kissing his girl on tv during draft day….So much love for John man I hope he plays his last years in the wiz uni.
