There are a couple of different ways to look at John Wall missing Wednesday's game against the Nets on Wednesday.

Obviously, if Wall is going to miss a game, it was nice that it came against the Nets, who even in a spirited effort could only keep up with the Wall-less Wizards for 24 minutes. If this was just a case of the Wizards resting Wall in a game they had a good chance of winning even without his services, that would be completely understandable. However, it seems like it would go against Wall's nature to sit out a game for rest if the Wizards still have a chance at making the playoffs.
