Marcin Gortat Top 5 Twitter Following List

Marcin Gortat currently follows 236 people on Twitter. When you take a look at the list you will see the usual. A plethora of NBA related accounts, a bunch of Polish people, and lots of other athletes from different sports. However, there appears to be a large number of accounts from a little bit of a different style.

Pierre Garcon At The Wizards Game

Here is Washington Redskins wide receiver Pierre Garcon hanging out with G-Wiz on Wednesday night at the Verizon Center during the Wizards vs Knicks matchup.  This is actually a good cross promotion between two DC sports teams (Unlike what the Caps are doing).

At one point in time, Garcon said he was a Kobe and Lakers fan.  He's probably just there to check out Carmello.

Jan Vesely & The Secret Cipher

So our favorite player Jan Vesely sent out some pretty strange tweets last night.  We thought it may have been one too many Czechvars or perhaps some pocket tweeting, but it was actually a secret code that Jan left for the KGB.

Jan has already successfully infiltrated the Washington Wizards, and is currently planted right in the midst of our nation's capital.  Watch out everyone!

And all joking and fun aside, donate some money to the Boys & Girls Club here for JANuary!

Fans Wizards New Year Resolutions

During each Comcast broadcast of the Washington Wizards games, CSN's Chris Miller tries to get the fans involved on Twitter by asking questions, and having people reply with the hashtag #WizardsTalk. With the team being terrible, this is usually a pretty hilarious tag to search.  Tonight's Question and select answers:

Some fan just screamed "Put Bradley Beals bobble-head in the game" that's not right. Funny, but not right #WizardsTalk

Kevin Seraphin Hot Tubbin'

Here is the latest picture tweeted by the Washington Wizards Kevin Seraphin in the jacuzzi:

And here is what I see:

And here is a terrible scene from the movie About Schmidt where Kathy Bates is naked in a hot tub and they show it...uggggggg:

And how about that one time Seraphin pretended he was sick so he could skip school!

Jan Vesely Tweets Bizarre Guitar Hero Picture & Photoshops

Here is the Wizards Jan Vesely wearing some girly kapri-style European pants, a tank-top, and sunglasses indoors. Uh whatevs Janet.  And then there is Jan with the Beatles, Stones, & Hendrix.

Tweet:  "🎸Rockin'🎸 Tried to make Justin Bieber's band tonight, but didn't make the cut"

So of course we have some photoshops.  Tweet me more @DCSportsNexus!

Bradley Beal: Cardinals Fan And Not Afraid To Show It

It is no secret that Washington Wizards rookie Bradley Beal is all about the STL.  He is always tweeting about his home town, and was even living there as of a short while ago.  And because he is from St. Louis, that makes him a Cardinals fan.

Now Beal was never "shove it in your face" about DC Sports teams the way that Bryce Harper did when he tweeted "I love my Nationals, but I'm not a Redskins, Georgetown, Wizards, nor a Capitals fan"  In fact Bryce is a Cowboys fan which is just ... wrong for a DC athlete.

But Brad Beal likes the Cardinals.  They aren't a rival.  They aren't in the division.  They are just a baseball team from a huge baseball city where everyone loves the baseball team, even if they never watch games.

However, they did happen to just knock the Washington Nationals out of the playoffs in crushing fashion.

The loss was so devastating that people sent hate tweets to pitcher Drew Storen, people on the metro were screaming and punching doors, and fans in the stands were cursing in front of children.

Meanwhile, Washington Wizard Bradley Beal was happy, and letting everyone in DC know it on Twitter.

Now if this was a regular season game nobody would really care.  But this is one of the biggest losses in the history of the city.

Some fans were tweeting Beal crushing him for his STL fandom in general.  That doesn't seem right.  Many people feel you can't just up and pick a team to root for.  But it seems these are the same fans who think Beal should just up and pick the Nats to root for.  Makes no sense.

However, others were upset because of the timing of the STL fandom.  Thinking that it is OK to root for the Cards, but not when they play the team in the city you play for.

So my question is, "Should a DC Athlete publicly root for a team from another city when that team is playing a team in DC?"

Bradley Beal: Profound Tweeter

If you are a Wizards fan on Twitter, you are most likely following Bradley Beal, the Wizards first round pick that they took #3 overall.  Beal has already made the "All-Summer League" team but he definitely did not make the "All-Twitter League" team.  Here are some of the tweets you get from @RealDealBeal23:

Just touchdown in Vegas !!
— Bradley Beal (@RealDealBeal23) July 13, 2012

Just touchdown in DC !!
— Bradley Beal (@RealDealBeal23) July 25, 2012

Just touchdown in the Lou ! ✈
— Bradley Beal (@RealDealBeal23) July 19, 2012

Those tweets look like texts I get on occasion.  Wait, does Beal want me to pick him up at the airport?  Just Touchdown everybody!

When Beal isn't at the airport rocking #airportflow or listening to #musicflow, he is letting us in on very important and personal details about his life:

Hungry !!!
— Bradley Beal (@RealDealBeal23) July 25, 2012

I am starvinggg !!
— Bradley Beal (@RealDealBeal23) July 22, 2012

What to eat??
— Bradley Beal (@RealDealBeal23) July 19, 2012

Somebody get this man some food!

So if you are looking for some very insightful tweets from the Wizards top draft choice, then sign up for Twitter ASAP and follow the Real Deal.  And I will leave you with my favorite tweet.  This one inspired me to go out and turn my dreams into reality:
