SNYDER: Wizards shoot for rivalry with Heat in future

The Wizards have a perception of being the “Clippers East,” and the idea that a prominent, skilled player would CHOOSE to play here would change the culture. So the Wizards shouldn’t rule out anyone who might like being on the receiving end of Wall’s assists.

With a successful lottery pick this year, continued development among the youthful core and a couple of solid additions, the Wizards-Heat matchup can look a whole lot different in a few years.
