My body is ready for the Mystics version of what the Wizards are doing right now...

Well, I hope this works out. Flipside is with more popular names going before and after their picks, they won't be seen by a national audience much if at all this year. So, they can just play their young roster and hopefully develop into a team that wins a lot of games in the future.

The Mystics are suddenly of interest.

I feel same way about the mystics as I do about the wizards...these franchises are not known for national recognization and that doesnt generate wins.
On the other hand, wins can generate national interest...they are building teams that either one of the these prospects will break out into stars or convince a star to come here (either via trade or outright signing).
Been saying for years what Mystics did to get Delle Donne capitulated them into a contender and they eventually broke through to the top.
I jus don't have thos concern with us having a star yet, if we trust these folks that will inevitably come. I trust them now, NBA teams have commented on this (I watch a lot of out of town streams and it comes up a lot late in the season, except Boston, they have zero respect for us).

Thanks to Memphis winning the play-in. Washington gets their non-lottery first rounder this year. So, hopefully they get swept out now and the front office finds another Carrington or George around pick 19.
