4 Things to Watch For Against Washington Wizards
1: How Will the Sixers Contain Wall?
There’s no denying that John Wall is among the league’s top point guards.
His quickness, speed and ability to drive through the lane make him virtually unstoppable for any team in the NBA to guard. So far this year, the Sixers haven’t done a great job containing the opposition’s point guards, and Wall could be a big problem on Wednesday night.
Whether Sergio Rodriguez, T.J. McConnell or Gerald Henderson is on Wall, he’s going to be a matchup nightmare and could have a huge statistical evening.
Wall is also an excellent passer and his court vision allows him to find the open man with ease while in traffic.
Brett Brown and the Sixers’ coaching staff are going to have to get creative if they want any chance at containing Wall, and they’ll have to do just that to have a chance at winning.
