The Wizards are 7-13 now, already 3.5 games out of the playoffs this early in the season with no real reason to believe they’ll bounce back. As is its nature, the team has dealt with a couple of health scares already this year, but nothing severe — it has had every starter available for 1..>> view originalThen And Now: The Evolution Of LeBron James
