I listen to several podcasts, including some on the Washington Wizards regularly. Two of our writers, Matt Modderno and Ben Mehic are co-hosts of the Bleav in Wizards and Locked on Wizards podcasts respectively which you can listen to on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and other platforms. I also check out On the Road with Buck and Phil, hosted by former Wizards play-by-play announcer Steve Buckhantz and color analyst Phil Chenier.
There are some national NBA podcasts I listen to as well, including The Mismatch on The Ringer, which is hosted by Chris Vernon and Kevin O’Connor. Bullets Forever got a mention on a recent episode last week when ESPN Senior Writer Zach Lowe was their guest on a Feb. 12 episode.
To be honest, I’m not a fan of the City Edition jerseys this season. Mainly because of the gray color. Or maybe it’s a tribute to Georgetown University, Ted Leonsis’ alma mater. Gray is one of Georgetown’s colors, along with blue, which is more or less navy.
Anyway, Troy Haliburton, whose work can be found in The Washington City Paper and other outlets, suggested that the Wizards sport a cherry blossom-themed jersey.
Black Samurai Rui in Cherry Blossom City jerseys is the only way out of this constant obsession with American flag jerseys. Troy Haliburton (+/-) (@TroyHalibur) December 10, 2020
