5 vs a 4 1st round mediocrity may be our ceiling. But it can happen

No, his ceiling his much more than Rondo. He's a way better scorer.
Wall will never be as good as Kyrie. Kyrie's shooting ability separates him.

Care to prove me wrong? Wall has all the intangibles to make him the best defensive PG in the league. If he has found his jump shot and cuts down on his turnovers, he will be the best PG in the league. I don't see what is so hard to understand. I, myself, was starting to worry about him and him reaching his potential. And who knows? Maybe this is all just fools gold, but he has been playing at an insanely high level for the past couple of weeks.

from Michael lee:
John Wall scored or assisted on 26 of #wizards 31 4thQ points in 103-101 victory over LAL.

Over all wall accounted for 63/103 points which is 61.2%.

say it with me... S U P E R S T A R

Wiz didn't even have Beal or Okafor last night. Like I said though, I'm still highly hesitant he can maintain this type of play, and he likely won't. I'd be happy with a 20-9 avg.

If Rondo played every game like a playoff game his ceiling would be best PG ever!

Kyrie is already a better player and he's younger than Wall is. Kyrie averaged more ppg as a rookie than Wall has a whole career. So no

How about Kyrie's defense and winning percentage?

yeah, d rose and rondo had season ending injuries and deron williams had been shite.

But, Kyrie is a great player. I'm not saying Wall is better, yet. But Wall's potential, which he seems to be realizing right now is top 10 player in league type stuff. He is literally unstoppable with a jump shot.

If wall gets a consistent jump shot then his game will definitely improve, but also kyrie still would been an all star if Rondo didn't get injured remember Lopez got his spot, and Drose probably would've taken Holiday's spot. but that's my opinion doesnt mean im wrong or right

Wall is an excellent all around player. I don't know if we'll ever see a quadruple-double again (there have only 4 I think in league history), but if we do my money is on Wall.

Whats crazy is...

The Wizards would probably be a 7th seed this year if Wall never got hurt...

And they'd be prime for an upset over Indiana (I'm not sold on them)
