TUESDAY’SGAMES ERIC GAY/ASSOCIATED PRESS


Rookie JohnWall, top, returns to the Wizards’ lineup and draws a challenging assignment here guarding Spurs point guard Tony Parker. Parker finished with 20 points, 14 assists and 6 rebounds.


Even with Wall back, Wizards fall to Spurs


wizards from D1


extended their franchise record for consecutive road defeats to start the season at 14. The Wizards have lost 11


straight games in San Antonio, with Lewis the only player on their current roster who was in the NBA on Dec. 11, 1999. “I can’t fault our guys as far as


effort,” Coach Flip Saunders said. “When you’re under- manned like that, you almost have to play perfect basketball.” The Wizards (7-21) will have


Blatche andMcGee back in uni- form on Monday in Houston, where they will attempt to avoid matching the team record of 15 straight road losses. Blatche and McGee issued apologies for get- ting involved in scuffle with each other outside an area night club last week. The team had initially deemed it “simply a disagreement between team- mates” but decided to punish the players after further investi- gation. Blatche wrote in a text mes-


sage: “I’m very sorry for the incident. I had no intention of this ever happening. I apologize for my behavior, to my family, the whole Wizards organization, my fans, my teammates and coaches.” McGee expressed a similar sentiment on his Twitter account.


Without his leading scorer in


Blatche and leading rebounder in McGee, Saunders went with his 13th different starting line- up, giving the nods to Lewis and Armstrong, both of whom played well. Lewis scored a team-high 21 points with 12 re- boundsandArmstrong added 13 rebounds before being forced to leave early in the fourth quarter after suffering a mild right foot sprain trying to block a shot by the Spurs’ Gary Neal and land- ing awkwardly. Armstrong will be listed as day-to-day. “It always hurts to be short-


handed, but everybody else was ready to play,” Armstrong said. “I’m proud of how everybody stepped up.We didn’t come out with the victory, but we all played hard.We’re making some improvements from a couple of weeks ago to now. I think we’re starting to get there.” Wall returned to action for


the first time since a loss toNew York on Dec. 10 and appeared to be a little rusty after sitting the past five games with a bone bruise under his right knee.Wall finished with just four points,on

for the final 2:52 while Phoenix sliced a 10-point deficit to one was a gut- wrenchingexperience for rookie Blake Griffin, whowasn’t able to exhale until Eric Gordonmadeagame-saving steal in the final minute. Griffin had 28 points and 12 re-


bounds for his 18th straight double- double before fouling out for the sec- ond time this season, and Los Angeles nearly blew an 18-point lead before beating the Suns to end a streak of nine straight losses to Phoenix.

2-of-9 shooting, with six re- bounds and four assists in just under 20 minutes. He joked afterward about be-


ing a little out of condition. “I hadn’t played in twoweeksanda half, so running on a bike is different than running on the court, especially chasing a tal- ented point guard in Tony Park- er,” Wall said. “Before [Saun- ders] took me out the first time, five plays before that, I was trying to get out of there. I just wasn’t used to it.” Wall still showed flashes of


his dizzying speed. Saunders called on theNo. 1 overall pick to enter the game with 6.1 seconds left in the second quarter. Wall got the ball and sprinted up the floor, where Ginobili was stand- ing in the lane, waiting. Wall wrapped around the ball and Ginobili, frozen, could only ad- mire as Wall completed a left- handed layup—in less than four seconds — that looked reminis- cent of many of his animated forays to the rim. “It’ssomething


I’ve been doing since high school. But yeah, he does that move, too,”Wall said of Ginobili. “I got him with it.” Wall’s spectacular shot


brought the Wizards within 48- 42 at halftime, but they Spurs took control in the third period, taking a 16-point lead as Ginobi- li and Parker (20 points, 14 as- sists) combined for 14 of their 33 points. Wizards got within nine points with two Armstrong free throws with 9:27 remaining, but Ginobili (21 points and five three-pointers) responded with a three-pointer andNeal made a jumper over Armstrong that ended his night. Hinrich had 15 points and


seven assists but wasn’t ready to celebrate hanging around with the team with the league’s best record. “We should expect to. It’s good thatwedid that, but it’s not like we shouldn’t expect to com- pete every night,” he said. “I’ma little frustrated right now, I feel like we’re starting to play the right way and trying to do the right things out there. We just haven’t been able to put it all together quite yet.” After the game, Saunders ex-


pressed some disappointment in not having Blatche and Mc- Gee around. “Our players have known from the first day of camp that we have a zero toler- ance, as far as incidents off the floor,” he said. “It’s unfortunate that they put themselves in that situation. It doesn’t matter, youth and inexperience are not an excuse for anyone not acting in a professional manner. That’s the disappointing thing.” leem@washpost.com
