"The Washington Wizards rebuild has been ongoing seemingly long before the team officially hit the restart button. Washington has struggled to build a contender with a legitimate chance to compete in th Eastern Conference in quite some time, which is what essentially led the team to finally pulling the trigger on a trade to send Bradley Beal out of the DMV to officially kick the rebuild off."
"Fans are forced to think about the what-ifs when reminiscing about their former star backcourt duo of Wall and Beal, which alone brings pain to a fanbase who hasn't had much to cheer for in recent years. To make matters worse, Wall's recent claim has only added to the pain of thinking about how little the Wizards have to show for putting together one of the most elite NBA backcourts at one time."
"John Wall claims former backcourt duo could beat best in the East "We [Wall & Beal] both can guard," Wall said on FanDuel TV. "I take pride in guarding my position, and I don't think any of those guards can stop me. And if you try to put the point guard on Brad, they're too small. So I feel like we win that." Considering how elite both Wall and Beal were in their prime, it's safe to say that this claim isn't that wild."
The Washington Wizards entered a rebuild that predates the official roster restart and culminated in trading Bradley Beal to begin a full teardown. The franchise has struggled to field a legitimate Eastern Conference contender since the John Wall era. Fans frequently revisit the Wall‑Beal backcourt and lament unfulfilled potential after assembling one of the league's most talented guard duos. John Wall publicly claimed that he and Bradley Beal could defensively handle and defeat the current premier Eastern backcourt pairings, noting matchup advantages and his personal pride in guarding his position.
