Not that players should have a plan when it comes to losing : they need to try to win every single night.
But for us, fans, in the midst of this transition season, I think I'm ok with losing to the Wizards. I don't want us to have too good of a record in the end, so as long as we don't get blown out, I'm fine with losing. But if we are to win some games (and we need to, in order to keep the guys involved/keep the fans away from nervous breakdown), I'd much rather get beaten by the Wizards (so that players feel ashamed and want to work their ass off to make it up to themselves) and beat Utah on the road (so that players get the over-achievement thrill, team spirit building and realize they have potential).
So count me in for a 12-44 record, as long as those last 4 wins come vs San Antonio (Feb 15th), @Chicago (Mar 24th), @OKC (Apr 8th) and @Miami (Apr 18th). Quality over quantity.
