#9 Washington Wizards - Be consistent no matter who the opponent
There might be a slight drop-off when you compare this team's starters and reserves but the issue isn't as serious as it is for the Thunder. The Washington Wizards' problem is their attitude.
For three of the past four seasons, Washington has bowed out of the Playoffs at the Conference Semifinals stage, sometimes due to unfortunate incidents - injuries or fatigue or pressure of first-time Playoffs. So this team, more importantly, their leaders - John Wall and Bradley Beal, have a swagger about themselves that they are a top-notch team in the league. But the team seems to leave that swagger at home when they play against below .500 teams.
"We talk about it," he said, via Candace Buckner of the Washington Post. "We say when we play these teams that are not above .500 or not one of the great teams, we go out there playing for stats. It's simple as that. We can see it. I think we all can see it when we play."
Through 41 teams, they have a record of 23-18. Of those 18 losses, 11 have come against teams that don't have a winning record. Their road record is also abysmal. They are 13-8 at home at the Verizon Center, while they are 10-10 on the road.
Guess the Lakers players!
