Will Danny Abdia soon have to prove himself to a new coach, one who was not in the system at the time he was drafted? According to a report in the United States, Scott Brooks’ status in Washington has deteriorated and his chair is rocking. This, following a very disappointing season opener – with eight losses out of ten games.
It should be noted that Brooks’ contract will expire this summer, so the Wizards will not have to pay too much compensation. In addition to that Kevin O’Connor from The Ringer wrote that Brooks is unable to find effective lineups in defense and offense and the team must improve immediately otherwise the change will come.
It should be remembered that the club believed in their ability to become a legitimate playoff team thanks to the trade that brought Westbrook to the capital, however so far things have failed to connect. Although Bradley Bill does not stop sniping it is not enough in the bottom line. Also, Roy Hachimura has yet to make the leap and even Davis Bartans has been unable to recover after the injury. And all this without mentioning the wonderful chin, Thomas Bryant who ended the season due to a partial rupture in the cruciate ligament.
Then came another line from Washington – Russell Westbrook will miss about a week due to a hamstring strain in his hamstring. Following that, Raul Neto and Man Smith are expected to get more minutes in Brooks’ back line.
Are Abdia and Westbrook ready for a change? (GETTY)
