We've seen a bit of a shift in the Washington plan - what are your immediate goals and how do you hope to achieve them?

We've seen a bit of a shift in the Washington plan - what are your immediate goals and how do you hope to achieve them? We have entered an all out remaking of the team. We are gathering a lot of expiring contracts and picks for the future. We are going to have a lot of cap space for the upcoming free agent class. Hopefully we can build through the draft and free agency

The East's top is loaded. The Bulls, the Heat, the Magic and the Pacers. How do you hope to improve your team's chances against those franchises?

What players on the current roster have a longterm future with the team ? Going to be completely honest. I am not sure if anybody outside of maybe Willie Green has a long term future with the team. We are going to evaluate the team this offseason and see what direction we will go.

It is going to take some time, but we are going to have cap space this offseason, and we have a lot of first round picks in the next few years to build the team

What are your plans this upcoming off-season? We have a few draft picks and a lot of cap space to utilize. We are going to see what we can bring in from the draft and the free agent class

Any key free agents you guys are targeting this offseason? There are a few we have in mind, but we aren't going to disclose that information right now. we have to wait and see if they resign with their current teams or not.

With so much cap space, do you plan to build through the draft, free agency, or both ?

With so much cap space, do you plan to build through the draft, free agency, or both ? Probably through free agency and trades. We do have six picks (including this year), so maybe we can swing a deal with a rebuilding team

What does the next season hold for the Wiz? We have to wait and see what happens in free agency and the draft, but we always have playoff expectations. We just have to wait and see who we can bring to Washington. We have a ton of ap space and there are a lot of good players in free agency this year...

Who is the face of the franchise right now for the Wizards? Most teams have that one or two players whom news stations mark down as their go-to person to mention when they speak of matchups.

We only have three players right now. All are good role players/quality starter, but we don't have that face of the franchise

With a deep FA class & plenty of cap space, is it safe to say the Wizards will be big spenders this Free Agency period ?

Building on from shorty's question - can you share with us any specific players that you're hoping to attract to Washington?

We are definitely making a play for some of the bigger names in the class. With the free agent crop being as deep as it is, we feel we can get one or two quality players

We are going after some of the high profile players, but feel that the depth of this class will allow us to get a few good players going forward... Definitely have a chance to build a contender through free agency. We just have to wait and see if we land those players

You now have an abundance of point guards, with the most notable being Steve Nash. Do you plan on moving any of them on to strengthen the other positions on your roster?

How do you think Darko and Nash will fit together? Do you think that this will be a deadly one two punch for your team?

With a Pierce-Darko-Nash trio, what are the expectations for this season, and how close do you think you are to reaching it?
