The Washington Wizards, also known as the Washington Wizards, formerly known as the Baltimore Bullets, had "Agent 0" Arenas in the early 2000s, and under the combination of him and Larry Hughes and Antoine Jamison, the three musketeers, once became a strong opponent in the Eastern Conference playoffs when James first arrived at the Cavaliers.

But with the outbreak of the "gungate" incident, the Washington Wizards suddenly went into decline, from 2008 to 2011 for three consecutive years missed the playoffs, until the 2013-14 season, under the leadership of players such as John Wall, the team returned to the playoffs.

This season's Washington Wizards are a big surprise, they also successfully entered the playoffs last year, but this year they only achieved a record of 1 win and 4 losses in the opening stage, tied for the bottom of the East!

The poor record plagues the team's coach Randy Whitman, a middle-aged man who usually looks serious, but his face is sad at the moment, and it is rumored that Ted Leons, the owner of the Wizards, has given Whitman an ultimatum that if he loses at home again today, he will be fired!

Judging from the team's lineup, the Wizards are not bad, and even obviously look better than the lineup of several teams ranked higher than themselves, and it is precisely because of this that the team owner blames the head coach for the problem.

The ingredients are all prepared for you, but you can't make a good dish, can you blame the knife for not being good?

In the crucial game of deciding whether he could stay in the team, Whitman took a good look at the players on the team list and decided to try to change the lineup!

Center, the team has Jason Smith, Ian Masinmy, Masingotat three big men, from the previous five games, the strongest of the three, is also the first few games of the "Polish Hammer" Gortat moves too slowly, seems to be not in tune with Wall and Bill, although the basket deterrence is good, but the start will slow down the rhythm on the court. Jason Smith is a good player with a good shot and good flexibility, but his ability to protect the basket is too poor. So Whitman set his sights on Ian Masimmy, who is between Gortat and Smith in terms of agility, but his ability to protect the basket is not much weaker than Gortat, and it seems that Masimmi is the most suitable choice for Wall and others to start.

Big forward, Andrew Nicholson is more than brave, rough skills, it's okay to play bench battles, and the starters are still far behind, although Jason Smith can also play big forward, but Smith's shooting distance is too close to the basket, what he needs is an all-round power forward who can be inside and out, and the starter in this position still needs Markieff Morris to serve.

Small forward, there are not many candidates to choose from, although Kelly Oubre has potential, but he is still immature and not enough to start, Marcus Thornton is only 1.93 meters, and he is not enough to play small forward, and he can only be ranked in this position when he needs to grab points, so only Otto Porter can choose.

Shooting guards, two sophomore guards have not yet played, Thorton is full of attacking power, but the defense is flawed, and this position can only be arranged Bradley Beal.

Organizing guards, the undisputed John Wall, who is currently averaging 23 points + 11 assists per game.

After a careful analysis of the offense, Whitman made minor changes to the starting lineup, starting with Ian Masimmy and putting Gortat on the bench.

In this way, the starting lineup for the Wizards against the Celtics is:

Center: Ian Mashinmi, 2.11m;

Power forward: Markieff Morris, 2.08m;

Small forward: Otto Porter, 2.03m;

Shooting guard: Bradley Beal, 1.96m;

Organizational defender: John Wall, 1.93m.

Whitman has no choice but to put Treasure in this lineup.

Not to mention, this change of formation did work well, Marshinmi, who can frequently move to the outside to do blocking and pick-and-rolls for Wall and Beal, can also do the dirty work of grabbing rebounds and blocks on the inside, and even when facing Horford, who has good defensive flexibility, it is also the Wizards' first choice for the same position, Gortat can't keep up with Horford's speed, and Smith is not as strong as Horford.

In the first quarter, the Celtics and the Wizards were evenly matched, and Ye Hai's dry pull-up jumper that was thoroughly inspired in the battle with the Cavaliers became his main scoring means in this quarter, and in the face of Otto Porter's good defense, he used his accurate jump shot to open up the situation for the team. But Horford is caught up in an inside entanglement with Masimmi.

At the end of the first quarter, the Celtics led by just one point, 30-29.

In the second quarter, the Celtics were played by Paul and Jack Crowder with a bunch of bench players, and the Wizards also switched to the second lineup of Gortat and Thorton, while keeping Wall on the court, but the Celtics quickly pulled the score away and led the opponent by 11 points at 58-47 at the end of the first half!

At the end of the first half, Paul had already seen the problems of the Wizards, and there was no communication between Gortat and Wall! There is already a problem with the internal atmosphere of the team!

It turned out that there was a disagreement between Gortat on the inside and Wall on the outside because of the distribution of the ball and offensive ball possession, Gortat thought that he could not always keep repeating the work of helping Wall block and dismantle on the court, and Wall himself kept rushing, so Gortat not only could not play his offensive advantages, but also went out so frequently to block and then return to the basket, often losing his rebounding position.

But Wall is because he can renew his contract early this season, and intends to improve his own data, after seeing Beal take such a big contract, Wall's heart began to wave, when he heard that the honest man Gortat actually had opinions on his blocking tactics and too many shots, Wall, as the boss of the team, was even more angry.

So the conversation between the two broke up unhappily. In fact, coach Whitman doesn't know the reason for the incident, but the biggest headache in this league is that the authority of the head coach is trampled under the privilege of the star, and after trying to communicate with Wall to no avail, Whitman has gradually lost the trust of the players.

Sure enough, Paul's inference was correct, and in the second half of the game, as long as Gortat and Wall were on the court at the same time, the Wizards' offense and defense seemed to be disjointed again, and the angry Whitman even put both on the bench at the same time, and did not play again in the entire fourth quarter.

Although there is an element of gambling, it is undoubtedly the Celtics who benefit. Facing the infighting Wizards, the Celtics pulled away in the second half and won 118-90 away.

Wall, Gortat and coach Whitman were booed by the home fans when the game was decided. At the end of the game, Whitman knew his days in Washington were over, and he looked back at Wall, who had coached for four years, but the other side didn't look at him.

The Celtics have added another stroke to the list of victories, not too much concern about the mess of the Wizards, people are more concerned about the Celtics against the New York Knicks at home in Boston two days later, the two Chinese players Ye Hai and Che Yicheng will officially meet in this Chinese derby!
