G-Wiz and the Wizards Run this Year

It was a good run for the Washington Wizards this season. With the help of veteran superstar Paul Pierce, the Wizards made it as far as the Eastern Conference semifinals. However, they fell short against the dominant Atlanta Hawks in six games. Better luck next year boys!

Wizards in Post-season 2015

Washington Sports is alive once again this season! Both the professional hockey and basketball teams of the Nation's Capital have reached the post-season. The Washington Wizards, DC's basketball team, has beefed up its roster during last summer and brought in veteran reinforcements like the future Hall-of-Famer Paul Pierce. Thanks to that and other factors like the maturity and leadership of point guard John Wall, the Wizards spend their second consecutive spring to play for the NBA playoffs. 

I was able to watch the first home game of the Wizards' playoff run vs. the kings of the north, the Toronto Raptors. The Wizards pulled away win a win this night, giving them a 3-0 advantage over the  Raptors. We were at nosebleed section and the arena was packed with fans donning the red, white and blue shirts that were given for free that night.
