    OT: John Wall is Currently Doing Things Not Many People On Planet Earth Can Do

    Celtics vs. Wizards on TNT. Wizards currently on an unbelievable run with Wall driving the bus.

    Davis and KAT get the pub, but this guy might just be the best Kentucky player in the NBA right now.

    I agree, just wish it wasn't against my Celtics but happy for Wall. Funny thing about all this was Boston was trying to get Wall earlier this year until the Wizards turned it around. ...

    Can you say second best player in the Eastern Conference?

    If home court wins, C's can move on in this series.

      Wow, huge shot by Wall lastnight to hit hte off balance 3 to send the series to a game 7 in Boston. Love my Celtics but very proud of Wall, he's still one of my favorite players. The home team has won every game in this series so hopefully Boston moves on but i expect Wall to lay it all on the line Monday night, i am nervous...

          Washington has had enormous trouble guarding Boston in the road games. They're averaging over 120 a game in the Garden.

          That's 14 points over Boston's season average. Can't win on the road giving up that many. If they can somehow clamp down then they can advance...though I'm not sure it's going to matter with the way Cleveland is playing.

            Agreed. No matter who wins, good luck with Cleveland and star Lebron.


            As for tonight, i am hoping the energy of the home crowd energizes Boston to pull this series out...

              I'm not a wizards fan but am pulling for Wall tonight. He whipped out the full speed spin move the other night just like he used to do in blue. Just awesome.

                Meanwhile, Colin Cowherd seems to be slowly getting on board. He called Wall the best player in the series but needs to win a 2nd round series. According to him, he went over the top when he jumped on the scorers table after the game the other night.

                  I hope John Wall scores 50 points but i am a Boston fan, time to move on face the Cavs. Who knows what will happen tonight but i like my scrappy, under the radar, defensive, 3pt shooting, star by committee Boston Celtics. Regardless of what happens tonight, Boston will have a top pick in the draft, all kinds of money to spend(Gordon Hayward,etc.etc,) and many more pick the next few years. I hated the slow 4 year process but Danny Ainge has played it all like a fiddle. I still think Chicago would have beat Boston had Rondo not got hurt simply beacause the death I. Thomas sister set that team back the first few games of the playoffs.

                  Anyways, Go C's...........

                    JWorld- We all know you can be open and objective: Which team (Celtics/Wizards) gives the Cavs a series, wins at least two games instead of a sweep?

                    Good luck to you tho!

                      Celtics.....For me to say anything else would be like me openly picking Louisville over Kentucky I. Thomas is lazy on defense but makes up for it offensively. Defensively, Bradley and Smart will lock you down..Olynck is like Bam,got in shape improved dramatically .Better coach, better bench, play as team....

                      With that being said, gotta beat the Wizards first,tough tight game so far, Beal and Porter shooting makes me nervous lol

                        Speaking of Wall, i think Fox may be faster which is why he will go before Ball in my opinion. .

                          John Wall 0 for his last 9, Kelly Olynck playing like Larry Bird, Beal hitting everything he shoots, I. Thomas exploded at a critical time of the game ,

                          Bring on Cleveland

                            Not a good look for Wall when the game was on the line.

                              He was like 0-10 or something like that in the second half and choked on the big stage. As a point guard, he should have realized that Beal was hitting everything he took and could have been different if Beal was taking more shots with Wall a facilitator. What's interesting is that Wall actually averaged more turnovers a game than I. Thomas in that series, Wall has the skills but also has room for improvement.
