Next Episode of LOST: The Wizards '09-10 Season

When players with first round talent fall into the second round that is usually a red flag there is some serious baggage. In the case of Wizards Forward Andray Blatche that certainly appears to be the case. The latest episode came during the lose the Charlotte Bobcats when he was taken out in the first quarter for dogging it on defense, refusing to discuss the matter with his coach, ignoring assistants who tried to talk to him, and sneaking out of the locker room before the media arrived. Now Blatche says his Coach Flip Saunders a liar.  He wants an apology.  Please read Dan Steinberg's bog today from an interview with Blatche on 1067 The Fan's Mike Wise Show.

Now maybe if this was another player I would be more willing to listen to their version of the story, but  Blatche's track record speaks for itself. He had issues with former Coach Eddie Jordan, interim Coach Ed Tapscott, and now Flip Saunders. Three in a row and three very different coaches. He is a player that has shown flashes of brilliance on the floor, many flashes of stupidity off the floor, and also a work ethic that has been lacking. Maybe some reflection is needed?  I mean who is the common denominator in all these stories?

A lot of this smells like a more talented version of Kwame Brown.  Remember he had an excuse or a coach to blame at every turn. He's been all over the league and still dealing with the same issues and lack of production. Of course in Kwame's defense he never got busted trying to pick up a DC street hooker/undercover vice cop.  I mean that was the moment the Wizards should have been worried about Blatche.  What guy in the NBA can't find some action on his own?  Again speaks of the poor work etchic. 

This is a team that has lost 12-straight and an alleged building block basically quits on his team in the middle of the game. In a season that was LOST months ago why deal with DIVAS?  Speaking of LOST last nights episode confirmed my theory all along that the island was in fact hell, which for some strange reason reminds me of the Wizards season.  The play on the court and drama of it has felt that way to the fan base.  So dump the bad apples and keep playing the effort guys and pray the ping pong balls bounce your way, John Wall is Our Savior!
