"Eighty-two games, that's a long season," he said. "Good teams find a way to win somehow."
But do bad teams sometimes find a way to give games away?
"I didn't say that, you did," he replied.
Ilgauskas was too polite to say it, but how else do you explain the events that turned a would-be feel-good win for the Wizards into another loss -- this one a 95-94 defeat in Washington -- in a now 6-19 campaign. The Wizards coughed up a four-point lead with 17 seconds left, and the way it happened was brutal.
The scene: the Wizards led the entire fourth quarter after Andray Blatche put them up by two with a turnaround fadeaway that beat the third quarter buzzer. The Verizon Center was full (to compare, only 16,500 were on hand with the Lakers in town on Tuesday, most wearing gold and purple) and fans are on their team at least as much as they are booing the Heat.
