What a match-up in Washington tonight! Can the giant-killing Wizards make it a three-peat? They have already taken down the Dallas twelve game winning streak and the Suns fifteen game winning streak. The Suns now come in on a thirteen game winning streak again and we believe the Wizards take it out yet again. Washington has played tremendous basketball at home standing at 17-3. The only losses have been by 5 poiints to Houston, 4 to Detroit, and an OT loss to the Nets. Those were all defensive minded teams. The Suns are 13-5 on the road. So we get a 17-3 team vs. 13-5 team and the 17-3 team, playing at home, is getting 5 points? The Wizards save their best basketball for these types of games and certainly they have the firepower to stay with the Suns, especially at home. We also like the first half of this game to come under the incredibly high 117.5 first-half line. The game total is just 231.5 so we are getting over two points cushion on top of the fact that we don't have to fret OT killing our UNDER play.
