AAA's 10* SITUATIONAL DESTRUCTION (+$50,616 NBA s/ 2013!)
(NBA) Washington vs. Atlanta,
Point Spread: 5.50 | -105.00 Washington (Away)
Result: Loss
This is a 10* SITUATIONAL DESTRUCTION on the Washington Wizards.

I think this is a great situational play and while I obviously feel that the outright win isn't out of the question, I will in the end recommend grabbing as many points as you can as I expect the "hungry" Wizards to keep this one a lot closer than what the oddsmakers are leading us to believe. Atlanta finally fell in a 115-110 loss to New Orleans on Tuesday and I believe this sets up as a classic letdown spot for the home side. It's hard not to imagine the Hawks having a mental lapse today after winning 19 straight, equaling the fifth-longest single-season winning streak in league history; note that the team would go 9-0 on the road during the epic win skein. Now also throw in the "look ahead" factor with West leading Golden State coming to town on Friday, then this play gets even stronger. And then now also throw in the fact that the Wizards play with "double revenge" from this season alone, including an embarrassing 120-89 rout on January 11th. And finally, Washington will clearly be focused on the task at hand, it's dropped three straight overall coming into this one, the last two both coming by just four points. The Hawks run was impressive, but I'm not even close to "crowning their asses" yet, the situational factors are overwhelming and they all point to the WIZARDS as the savvy move in this one.
