Wizards coach calls G Bradley Beal 'too soft' after recent loss
Things aren't going so well in Washington, D.C. The Wizards are 9-11, and outside the playoff picture if the season ended today. And after a recent loss against the Houston Rockets, head coach Randy Wittman decided to call out his second best player, Bradley Beal.
Here's what Wittman said, according to CSN Mid-Atlantic:
To his credit, Beal's response was professional, and he owned up to his mistakes, per The Washington Post:
“He played not aggressive. Too soft,” coach Randy Wittman said. “That’s what happens. You get seven turnovers.”
Though if Wittman is looking to turn things around in Washington, perhaps attacking his players in the media isn't the best route.
“He’s right. Turnovers are bad either way, if you have one or if you have seven, a turnover’s a turnover. No matter what, that comes from not being aggressive with the ball, and not being aggressive is quote 'soft.' So, you can’t argue.”
