T.M. Selection: Wizards/Hawks OVER.

I am on the over in the Washington Wizards vs Atlanta Hawks game on Wednesday. The Wizards have been involved in a lot of high scoring games lately. They have had 230+ points total in 4 games in a row now and in all of those games there was 1 team that put up 125+ points themselves. The Wizards have been putting up 100+ points in 4 games in a row and they have also done it in 7/8 of their previous 8 games. I think this is going to be another game that they put up a ton of points in since the Hawks don't really play defense that great. The Wizards have given up 100+ points in 6 games in a row themselves and in 18/19 of their previous 19 games. The Wizards have also been terrible with their defensive effort this year and they have blown a few 20 point leads over the past few weeks that just shows how bad their defensive effort really is in their games. They have also looked a lot better in their games lately though, winning 3/4 of their previous 4 games and scoring 125+ points in all 3 of those wins. I think they are going to continue playing hot here and put up a lot of points on the Hawks who won't offer a lot of defensive resistance. The Hawks have also been involved in a lot of high scoring games themselves lately, playing 18 games in a row with 220+ points total and a majority of those games were games where there was 230+ points total. The Hawks have put up 120+ points in 6 games in a row and they have given up 110+ points in 8/9 of their previous 9 games. Both of these teams have been pouring on the points in their games lately and partly because neither team really plays defense in their games so they both have to keep putting up points to stay in the games they are in. I see there being a lot of points in this game too. I like the over in this game.

T.M. Prediction: 132-125 Hawks.
