As a team, the Wizards shot 48 percent from the field and 15 of 37 from the 3-point line as they took it to the Bucks and kept the game within single digits the entire way, but with the scores tied late in hte fourth quarter, it was the Bucks who used a pivotal 9-2 run to pull away and pile on the misery for the Wizards.

Peter's Pick

The Hawks were really struggling before their thrilling overtime win over the Nets and it was especially encouraging to see Young shake off his shooting slump. Meanwhile, the Wizards have been struggling since opening night, but they were more than competitive against the Bucks last night which makes things interesting. Still, the Hawks are clearly the better team, playing the better basketball with the advantage of extra rest here. Give me the Hawks to build on their win on Wednesday with a more comfortable win here.
