They win against almost nobody, but when they do win it isn't against nobodies. The Wizards own the association's worst record by three-game margin, but two of their five total triumphs have been over last year's NBA Finals participants. When asked about the go-ahead possession that resulted in his game-winning jumper to defeat the Thunder Monday, Bradley Beal said, "I didn't know what I was going to do, to be honest." That's the way the rest of the league feels about Washington on a given night. The Wiz are just another D.C. organization operating with limited intelligence.
Today, Scott Skiles was canned by Milwaukee like Old Milwaukee, joining fellow coaches Mike Brown and Avery Johnson in an unemployment line that formed very early this season. Skiles took the team to the playoffs only once in four full years, losing in the first round. His record overall as a head coach is 443-433, but his record for being released mid-season is a perfect 3-0. The Bucks are currently an unsweet 16-16. Assistant Jim Boylan (no known relation to the sugar cane soda suppliers) takes over, so we suppose the club reached its Boylan point with Skiles.
