The betting lines continue to be huge with Golden State. They appear to be in cruise control down the stretch, only covering one of the last five contests. They failed to cover against the hapless 76ers, allowing the NBA's worst team to shoot 46.7 percent while committing 18 turnovers. That followed an eight-point win against Dallas as -16.5 chalk. This is a tough situational spot, too, as Golden State has to head out on the road and play tomorrow at Utah. Into town comes a Washington squad that has won six of eight as they fight for a playoff berth. The Wizards are desperate for wins as they cling to hope of catching the Detroit Pistons for the eighth spot in the Eastern Conference. Washington earned a 101-88 win over the Lakers on Sunday to draw within 2.5 games of the Pistons. All-Star point guard John Wall had 22 points and 13 assists for his ninth straight double-double. Wizards Center Marcin Gortat posted a double-double in five of the last six games and is shooting 66.7 percent from the field in that span. The Wizards are also 8-3 ATS when playing on one day of rest, so grab the motivated big dog and take Washington.
