Both New Orleans and Washington have turned the corner and played better over the past several weeks. Washington, however, has carried a losing record through their last three games, and seems to be playing down to the level of earlier in the season. New Orleans has lost four of their last five, and appears to be suffering a similar fate. The Wizards, however, have not seemed to be able to consistently put together consecutive good games. Coming off a 10-point win in their last outing they are just 9-23-1 ATS in their last 33. This has been a road-dominated series with the road team having covered each of the last eight. Take New Orleans.
