GT #36: Rockets @ Wizards 7 PM (NBATV/NBCSW/1500 AM)
Posted: Thu Dec 28, 2017 3:46 am
YOUR Washington Bullets ARE 19-16! They were 17-18 at this point last year! 
After a HUGE win at Boston on Monday, they dropped a game to the worst team in the East in Atlanta. Unfortunately, its been a constant theme. Your Bullets are 9-10 against teams under .500. They only lost 9 games against such teams last year even during the horrible start to the season.
The Wizards' inconsistency has been a constant this season. Which means... they will get up to play the Rockets and our old friend Nene (who's way better than Mahinmi). The Wiz are 10-6 against teams .500 and above.
The Rockets are in Boston on Thursday. CP3 isn't playing back to backs so we'll see which game they decide to play him. James Harden continues to be an MVP candidate and he'll be going against a Wizards team that loves to foul so expect the beard to live at the line. The question will be can the likes of another old Wizard, Trevor Ariza, guys like Ryan Anderson and Eric Gordon be contained? Also, Clint Capella won't play as he suffered an orbital fracture.
I'm going Rockets here. Go Wiz though.

Wizards @ ATL Hawks - 99-113 (L)
