Washington Wizards
At 1-10, Wizards fire Jordan, promote Tapscott Even without Gilbert Arenas and another injured starter, the Washington Wizards never imagined they would be as bad as the franchise ever has been. So after opening 1-10 to match the worst start in team history, the Wizards fired coach Eddie Jordan and his top assistant Monday and gave director of player development Ed Tapscott his first NBA head coaching job. Nov 24, 2008 - 7:37:51 PM Arenas has 3rd knee operation Gilbert Arenas had a third operation on his bothersome left knee Wednesday morning, once again throwing into doubt his status for an upcoming Washington Wizards season. Sep 17, 2008 - 3:00:59 PM NBA suspends Darius Songaila for hitting LeBron James in face Washington Wizards reserve forward Darius Songaila was suspended by the NBA for Game 6 of a playoff series against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday night for hitting LeBron James in the face with his hand. May 2, 2008 - 1:20:49 PM Butler's late basket helps Wizards win Game 5 in Cleveland Caron Butler saved Washington's season. Butler made a layup with 3.9 seconds left and the Wizards held their breath as LeBron James missed a potential series-ending layup at the horn, giving Washington an 88-87 victory Wednesday night and adding at least one more game to this overheated NBA playoff series. May 1, 2008 - 7:08:38 AM NBA sweeps week: Cavs eliminate Wizards It's sweeps week in the NBA. Even the Cleveland Cavaliers got in on the act. The Cavaliers completed a playoff sweep for the first time in franchise history Monday night, beating the Washington Wizards 97-90 with yet another unconvincing performance, doing just enough to beat a depleted team that nearly emptied its bench in the first half. Apr 30, 2007 - 9:02:22 PM Cavaliers take 3-0 lead over Wizards The Cleveland Cavaliers are mastering the art of doing just enough to win. This time, they managed to blow a 17-point second-half lead against the short-handed Washington Wizards. Apr 28, 2007 - 10:12:34 PM Gooden, Cavs pour it on to beat Wizards LeBron James trudged back down the hallway to the Cavaliers' locker room with ice bags strapped to both ankles and knees. He labored like an older man, not like a spry, skywalking 22-year-old. He could use more rest, and the Cleveland Cavaliers may soon give him some. James scored 27 points on a tender left ankle, Drew Gooden added 24 - 19 in the first half - and the Cavs moved halfway to a first-round sweep of Washington with a 109-102 win over the undermanned but not overwhelmed Wizards on Wednesday night. Apr 26, 2007 - 6:21:16 AM Cavs top Wizards despite LeBron's sprain Flat on his back, LeBron James grimaced as he looked toward the arena rafters, where giant banners spelled out his team's playoff motto: "RISE UP!" And he did. Apr 22, 2007 - 5:43:58 PM Wizards coach Jordan was fined $25,000 It turns out that Washington Wizards coach Eddie Jordan was indeed fined for griping about the officiating during the first round of the NBA playoffs. May 24, 2006 - 11:50:00 AM Wizards Tie Series With Win Over Cavs Hold on, LeBron. Gilbert Arenas and the Washington Wizards aren't quite ready to pack it in. Apr 30, 2006 - 10:35:00 PM
