How great was he tonight?
42 points, knocking out the Hawks on the road.

Didn't see a John Wall thread
- Thread starter Aike
- Start date
He is a superstar. Beating Boston would be a big deal for him at this point in his career.
In January, Wizards players complained that it sounded like a road game when they played the Lakers at Verizon Center.
They might better expect more of the same against the Celtics.
If the Caps would go ahead and lose to the Penguins, maybe local fans will get fully behind the Wizards.
Attended the game tonight in ATL, unbelievable performance by Wall. The chase down block even made Hawk fans stand up and cheer
How's Atlanta traffic with all the roads falling apart? I've gotta go through there in a month.
Truly, IMHO, one of the best to play at U.K.!!! And a super young man as well!! I'm proud to know he was / is a 'CAT!!!

John Wall is a great player and a great ambassador for UK Basketball!!
His post All-Star performance this year was MVP worthy.
Wall is awesome!! Also with a lot of Fox comparisons to Wall you would think Fox would be the 1st or 2nd pick. I would take him over Ball any day.
He decided not to lose. Scored the last 12 or so points. Dominated when the game was on the line. An epic performance when they needed it the most.
Sorry. Just now seeing this Aike. I75 should be ok by ATL's standards but it's always terrible. I'd give myself some extra time if you up against a time table just in case dude
Beat me to it. Second best traditional-style PG in the league, and closing the very narrow gap at an incredible rate.
They're just missing a true sidekick. Brad Beal can't be your second best player on a title team.
I might have bought that before this season.
But Kyrie would still be on a lottery team, IMO, had Lebron not returned to Cleveland and saved the day.
Wall has now led two Wizards teams to 1st round play off victories as a #1 guy, and likely would have been in the ECF two years ago if not for breaking his wrist against Atlanta in a now forgotten game 1 victory.
Love wall think he's a phenomenal player, but kyrie brings equally as good handles, he's the better shooter far and away, and he makes clutch shots (Cleveland loses last year if not for his 3pt shooting). I think Wall is the better passer and defender. It's close but if I'm judging it in an NBA spectrum I've got to go
Kyrie
Wall
Thomas as the top 3 in the east
Kyrie is better for Lebron than Wall due to style of play . John Wall is the better player . Same case for Westbrook and Kyrie
Kyrie was never a better point guard than Wall.
Kyrie is a talented offensive player whose best attribute is that he get to play second fiddle to the best player on the planet.
i like kyrie, but he's not a better point guard (team leader) as wall and not nearly (a laughable comparison) the defender. wall is also the better athlete and transition player. kyrie is a better scorer and creating his own shot in space, and that's it. wall is also a better passer. handles as in helping him score. kyrie's handles don't help his team as wall's passing does his. kyrie also is sidekicking the best player in the world and the sample size for his performance in last year's finals is what it is. wall is leading the fricking wizards to the brink of the ecf yet again.
Kyrie is BBQ chicken on defense. How is a one dimensional player the best pg?
Put Kyrie on the Wiz and they win 35 games.
They won like 2 more games than Washington. Kyrie has LeBron and Love, Wall has Beal and Gortat.
I don't get what that has to do with what I said . I already said Wall is the best PG in the East but Kyrie fits with Lebron more than Wall would
Not really, I mean he's obviously a better shooter but he's more interested in getting his than getting others involved, this is bad, especially when the others are studs.
