 More Magic from the Wizards?
Tonight we like a spread pick in the NBA on Detroit at Washington.Pretty much offense vs defense in this one. Wizards have been filling
The basket at a 107.1 ppg game clip, 110 at home while giving up
105.
Pistons ever the staunch defensive team..allowing a tidy 93.7 ppg and
A better rebounding team on both boards than the Wizards, but the
Wizards top the Pistons in steals and 3 pointers made per game.
Each team is coming off of a victory Sunday.
Now the spread is Washington( –2). We like an edge to Washington for a
couple of reasons. Wizards coming off of an impressive 2 game 2-0 road trip
that included a 3 point victory over the Pistons AT Detroit Friday.
Head to head Wizards have won 3 of the past 4 straight up with Detroit
and at just a bucket, this might as well be straight up tonight.
All the talk in the Detroit media is how the Pistons desperately need
perimeter shooting off the bench ..give a huge edge to the Wizards in
that category. Note: Washington boasts the East’s best home record of
17-4. Detroit a decent 13-8 away. Revenge angle for Detroit losing on home court
last Friday? We’re not playing it!
We like a dominant offensive team on home court. We think laying the points has value. Our pick is Washington Minus the two points over Detroit as home court favorites.
Washington minus 2. |
