Wizards' next steps
Re: Wizards' next steps
13% win.
30th and 28th on offensive and defensive efficiency before tonight.
6 factors in bottom 10, almost a 7th.
Average loss in October was by 11 pts, by 19 in December before tonight.
Most used lineup barely over equivalent of 3 minutes per game. An average of 12 new lineups every game, though a little less in last few games. 80% of 20 most used lineups negative. Almost 100% of 20 most used pairs negative beyond 1 neutral, all but one other at least -8.
Major drop in defensive rebounding after October. Major reversals in team and opponent 3pt fg%s as season has progressed.

Re: Wizards' next steps
How content or upset is management? Ownership?
What is considered to have gone right or even ok?
They knew it would be a multi-year process, but how many more years to play-in or playoffs?
Offensive efficiency went from 27th last season to 25th. Better shooting, more free throws but also more turnovers. Defense, worst or pretty near worst in almost every stat category.

Re: Wizards' next steps
The asset accumulation game (mainly draft picks) might eventually payoff... but it hasn't yet. Probably not "reasonable" to expect it to "payoff" by now but probably reasonable to hope or expect it to be less bad at this point.
Will management get to 2028 or 2030 or 2032 to show "success"?
By BPM they have 1 positive, 5 negatives -2.5 or better and 12 -3.5 or worse. Great for tanking I guess. 2 of the middle group are expiring.

Re: Wizards' next steps
Coulibaly is yr 3 so far: worst shooting of career worst turnovers, worst BPM, below any commonly used replacement level.
