We all know why he doesn't like the Wizards, John Wall stole his lunch money. But seriously, bless, it's because other people rate John Wall.
Heaven forbid people actually rate John Wall. Wall has performed very well since last year returning from his bad injury, as have the Wizards in general in which they've beaten some of the big dogs at home namely and performed at a above average level. Only one person doesn't wish to mention or acknowledge their play suffering when two (Beal and Nene) of their three main guys went to injury, like any other team! :pac:0 -

No not just Wall. Didn't like Gilbert Arenas either. They are just a joke of a franchise, They have no rivals becaue they have never been relevent for anyone else to give a sh1t.0 -

You could say that about quite a few franchises though, but you're wrong in saying they've never been relevent. The Wizards won the NBA Championship in 1978, and just incase you may laugh at that,but the Pacers have won three, three ABA Championships. When did they win that? Pre-Washington's Championship win
Rivalries can make one relevant I suppose, but at the end of the day it's about delivering NBA championships and the Pacers have failed in this regards.
As for Arenas, meh. I'm still lost on why you'd dislike him. The guy was a good scorer from vague memory.
I agree they've been a joke of a franchise for the most part since the 70s, but many franchies have gone through leans spells. Now it seems they're building something solid and if you can't see that, there really is no hope for you (not that you care I'm sure).
They have one of the most exciting backcourts in the NBA at present according to many experts and people who watch them. Nene is a very well respected and liked amongst teammates, media and fans alike big man. Gortat on his day is very good. Ariza and Webster are okay, more so the latter. Not a fan of Booker who seems to get a lot of minutes for them. Porter, their rook has looked decent at times in the few minutes he's played this season due to injury.
Despite all their injury issues this year, they've done well to be in and around .500 and so long as they can stay healthy, they will be .500.
Just need to sort out their 3Q issues they seem to have. Dig themselves into a hole far too much as a result from what I've seen. Their good 3Q's have resulted in wins this season, for the most part, comfortable wins too.0 -

Arenas was a thug. He kept guns in his locker at Version Center. He basically robbed the organisation for millions while he wasn't playing and boasted online about how rich he was, Saying he wipes his ass with $100 bills. He was an arrogant, egotistical prick. The Wizards were a joke long before him. The Washington Bullets were the laughing stock of the NBA.
I just don't like then and nobody is going to convince me to.
It's not about their relation to the Pacers. Pacers have their Rivals. Mainly Bulls and Knicks from the days when Reggie Miller went toe to toe with John Starks( and Spike Lee) in the Hicks v Knicks days.The central division battles with the Bulls and Reggie's personal feud with Michael Jordan.
More recently the rivalry with Detroit which included the infamous night of Malice at the Palace.0 -
