Wizards on a Winning Streak
The Washington Wizards have been on a roll with making it to the play-offs this season, which is exciting for any team. After years of losing and not reaching their goal of a championship. With the Wizards at their most desperate, Gortat and Wall teamed up for breakout performances that led to a stunning 102-79 victory over the Pacers that cut their series deficit to 3-2 in the best-of-seven Eastern Conference semifinals at Bankers Life Fieldhouse. The duo provided hope when there seemed to be none and leadership when the team appeared to be done. Wall had his playoff career high with 27 points as the Wizards forced a Game 6 on Thursday 5/8/14 at Verizon Center. Leaving Gortat notched playoff career score highs of 31 points and 16 rebounds. Whooo hoooo to this outstanding turn around this year, kudos to you all, keep making us proud.
