    Wizards +9 @ Atlanta

    Hawks on the 2nd half of a back to back set. Atlanta thinks everything is hunky dory after blowing out the hapless Nets.

    Wizards are going to take this game to the wire. Hawks rarely covered big spreads of 8 or greater last year and this game will be no different.

    This looks like the best play for Wednesdays card. Probably going to make this a 3 unit play.

    Atlanta blew the nets out early and because of that were able to rest all their starters (who averaged a little over 20 minutes). The back too back won't be a factor here.

    can we stop with this b2b crap. its getting old. people on here make it sound like if the heat are on the back end of a b2b they'd lose to the bobcats who have been on 2 days rest.

    thats exactly my point, b2b is a NON FACTOR in this situation

    When I mention B2B I just don't mean playing two games in two nights. Playing in back to back games factors in the emotion of coming off a big win/loss, jet lag (crossing time zones), arriving in another town in the middle of the night while the other team is safe asleep and the obvious lack of time for a game plan.

    I'm going to fade the C's today. They lost all of their B2B road games SU & ATS lat year. Ride the streak.

    Too early to take the b2b into consideration. veteran team needs a win against a hapless hornets team

    The fact that Atlanta is at -9 is a very good indication of what we might expect from this game. Sure Nets are shit but Atlanta is one of the better teams in the conference. They were able to blow out the Nets pretty bad - and I see a similiar situation with Wizards. Probably not as big of a blowout - but I do expect the Hawks at home to come ready to play and beat the Wizards by double digits.

    Atlanta is $$ at home, wizards have always been a pretty bad road team. They pretty much have the same main core that ran the team last year. And we know about their struggles.

    people continually forget to factor in airplane food when traveling, this takes it's toll. some airlines only throw a bag of nuts at you. it is ridiculous.

    I REALLY hope this is a joke. If it isn't, you are completely out of your mind.

    i am out of my mind, but i was joking obviously. anyone talking about traveling or resting or back to back in the first 3 games (or less) of the nba season when these clowns have been off for a year is an idiot. those are the people really out of their mind.
