This was supposed to be the year the Washington Wizards truly turned the corner, but they have not lived up to the promise, as they enter this game at just 14-17 on the season. They can attribute some of that to a sloppy 2-7 start to the season, as this team has been much better since at 12-10. Charlotte is a team that has turned the corner, but unfortunately for the Bobcats, the corner they are trying to turn is a long one. They stand at 15-20 on the season, but unlike Washington, they started at 7-7 and are just 8-13 since. That pretty much shows there is still a gap between where these teams are, so getting Washington here as a small dog is a bonus. Charlotte has kicked it up offensively over the last 10 games, as the Bobcats have reached the century mark in 6 of their last 10 games, while their previous 25 games they accomplished the feat just three times. The Wizards have feasted on losing teams where they are 11-1 ATS in their last 12 against them, and have played their last six on the road to the OVER. The Bobcats are 1-7 ATS when returning home after a 7+ day road trip in their last eight. They have also added some scoring with a quicker pace, but not wins. Play Washington and the OVER in this one.
