Washington – Cleveland
Washigton will probalby be without their best player J.Wall due to disciplnary reason as a result of a conflict with Z.Iligauskas in match against Miami. Without him most of danger by the Wizards is coming from M.Evans and J.Crawford (both ex Atlanta players , Evans was scoring there around 5-6 ppg average , Crawford had similar numbers who is also a rookie , now Crawford is offensivly better than Evans at the wizards ) and Blatche who played last match his first game after dealing with an injury. I did not mention Yi Jianlin , Mccge ( excellent potential in defense , top 10 potential , but offense is another story )for the obvious reasons , not enough quality who doesnt mean that they cant boost up their stats as a result of Walls not playing night. Cleveland after B.Davis returned to team recieved a lot of new energy which was believed to be long gon. They played 3 impressive games and despite losing twice the presebtation was very good. They won against Miami , where better than Charlottte but Bobcats wanted the win more cause of playoff aspirations and got it barely by +1 , and against Atlanta even than Cavaliers where alright. Long term injuries by Cleveland have no need to be mentioned again ( varejao and jamison ) cause without these players Cleveland has been playing for a while. In Clevelands team in the situation where Washington is without wall there is simply more depth , the Wizards are a young team bu they are without their youngest best player now. Hickson , Parker , Davis on the bench Sessions and Gibson , its simply better than what Washington has to offer and according to recent presentations i would say Cleveland is the favorite here , at least this is a 50-50 match in which case the pick is always clear : the higher odds. The higher odds represent for me the better team , now its up to them if they will motivate themselves enough for this win , Washingtons motuvation should be there fans and someone trying to steal the spotlight cause of their superstar isnt playing. I see good value in this odds , home court is not to be underastimated but Cavs are the better team for me now.

Musch was said about the Suns on the forum , playoffs are far away , coach stated out that in the near future veteran stars Nash and Hill will get limited minutes. Wha than bet on Phx? Well i suppose they ow something to the fans also , and cause of all the mentioned reason doesnt have to mean that they gonna lose now every game trough the end. They lost 3 in a row at home and fans despite being already dissapointed with not reaching the playoffs and i would say bad transfer and aquisiton of Carter which was badly taken by all the fans , still they will be there and the Suns players have an obligation towards them. Nash is a born leader on the court , a player with character , and such players i think will try by any messures to stop this bad streak. Quality is not something needed to discuss here . Both teams have their advantages , Suns the longer bench , Lac have Griffin who is for me surprisingly NR.4 in whole NBA by valrisation Points/rebounds/assists – respect ! Exept of Griffin their is Kaman ,M.Williams , E.Gordon on the bench DeAndre Jordan. The starting five is even more dangerous than the one by the Suns but Phx has a bigger motiv here sure . DeAndre Jordan recently fought against pneumonia and his fitness suffered a bit , he started playing again a week ago . On the 20th March this teams faced each other abd Phx won easily as guest 99-108 what is also a indicator to me that , when Phx wants to play they will outplay Lac who are a young and talented team but with big need for experience and 1 veteran star in their team who will no to take the best out of them.
