This is a 10* NON-CONFERENCE TOTAL BLOWOUT on the OVER between the Golden State Warriors and the Washington Wizards.

For a number of different reasons I expect this total to eclipse the posted number as the game comes down the stretch. Whether Stephen Curry plays or not matters not in my opinion, the Warriors will look to get out and run and take advantage of the slumping Wizards and return to the win column following a 104-98 setback to Indiana last time out: "I felt better and hopefully I'll be able to go (Tuesday)," Curry said after practice Monday. "I don't want to miss too much time so I'm trying to get it right for (Tuesday)." Washington has dropped eight of ten following a 106-89 setback in Detroit on Sunday, getting outscored 59-37 in the second half. The Wizards will look to return to form, after scoring 100.2 points per contest, the teams is averaging just 94.0 over its last eight. From an O/U trend based stand point, this play is about as strong as you could possibly ask for, note that Golden State has seen the total go OVER the number in ten of 18 non-conference games this year, while Washington has seen the total sail above the posted number in five of eight vs. good offensive teams which average 99 plus points per contest. In my opinion, all signs do indeed point to the OVER as the savvy move in this one.
