I am not an NBA expert.
I know more than the layman, but less than the hardcore fan, hardly an expert.
This is why I think the Wizards will advance.
1) The guard combination of Wall and Beal is superior than the guard combination of IT2 and Bradley.
isaah doesn't play enough defense to stick with Wall, and if you exclude Harden from the SG conversation, the only better SG in the game better than Beal is DeRozan, and I think Beal is a better SG than Klay, Wade, and CJ. But that's just my opinion.
2) Washington has a better front court too.
Morris and Porter are better than any Crowder/Amir Johnson/Jonas/Green combination the C's trot out.
3) Horford is so overrated, Gortat is in fact the better rebounder.
If the C's have the bench edge, it's not by much, they do have Marcus Smart, and a few big men, I like the Wizards sharp shotter Bojan, and Wall virtually plays all game so they really don't need Jennings that much.
5Dimes is offering +140, I'll take 7:5 odds eight days a week for this series.
Don't care if Boston has the home court, I don't think this goes seven games anyway.
