I know some are saying the Wizards stole game one but since I thought that would happen I am of a different opinion. Washington has been a strong road team all season long and in these playoffs even stronger.[ad-4468020]<\/p>\n

Washington<\/h3>\n
Everybody seems to know that except oddsmakers who keep installing them as underdogs. Washington has Indiana right where they want them.<\/p>\n
In G1 the Wizards jumped on the Pacers early and then held on. It’s was a pretty balanced effort too with all 5 starters scoring in double figures led by Bradley Beal’s 25 points.<\/p>\n
There was also a Drew Gooden sighting as the aged forward scored 12 points to lead the bench, while also grabbing 13 rebounds in just 18 minutes. Awesome production.<\/p>\n

With the way the Wizards have been winning on the road in the playoffs I am not sure this is a true line or not. I know Washington are not the Jordan Bulls but how can you not make this one at least a pick’em.

\nI think they are worried about the number getting too low and getting unbalanced action.<\/p>\nIndiana<\/b><\/h3>\n
The Pacers may have escaped the first round but it does not look like they have found any solutions for their problems.<\/p>\n
They have once again squandered their homecourt advantage and Washington is a much better team than Atlanta. It is almost like they are trying to make sure they are remembered as one of the shakiest top seeds in history.<\/p>\n
Roy Hibbert once again was a complete no show – 0 points and 0 rebounds with 5 fouls. Given how bad he has been in the playoffs it is easy to blame him for the loss but I am not sure that would be totally fair.<\/p>\n
Paul George and Lance Stephenson shot 8 for 30 so they deserve a lot of criticism too.<\/p>\n
Can they rebound to lead a victory on Wednesday?<\/p>\n

I feel like a broken record now but I just don’t see how you can put your money behind the Pacers with confidence.<\/p>\n
Sure they have bounced back more than once in these playoffs but do you really want to keep counting on that. I would pass or go with the Wiz.<\/p>\n
