It was pitiful, pathetic, putrid.

It was abysmal, painful, brutal.

It was the worst performance of the Wizards since they became a playoff team two seasons ago.

There was no fight in the Wizards against the Trail Blazers on Fun Street yesterday.

There was no sense of urgency in the Wizards, no sense of professionalism, no sense of caring an iota in losing to the Trail Blazers 94-73.

The Wizards could not even mount the obligatory scoring run that falls short against a modest opponent that will not make the playoffs this season.

The Wizards could not sustain anything against the Trail Blazers because of their ineptitude and listlessness.

The sellout crowd of 20,173 went to see an NBA game, and a WNBA game broke out.

This was not about the Trail Blazers being vaguely competent. This was about the Wizards being stunningly inadequate.

And this was not one of those bad games that inevitably happens to a team in the course of an 82-game season.
