Washington Wizards vs NY Knicks Prediction

The Washington Wizards aren’t a good team, and they’ve had no success over the years even in preseason, but this line is insane. It’s preseason. Teams don’t care about winning, it’s about figuring things out before games that count. See who deserves minutes, figure out rotations, etc. Winning just happens because somebody has to win. You don’t see these sorts of numbers in preseason play, and I’m not laying it. It’s nuts. Also, for what it’s worth, the Knicks played no defense in their preseason opener against Minnesota. Give me the Washington Wizards and the points.
