Randy’s Pick

I don’t want to back the Washington Wizards as much as the next guy, but I’m certainly not laying chalk with the Hornets. It’s not happening. The Wizards aren’t serious, they don’t play defense, and they’ve lost 6 straight games. However, we can say similar things about the Hornets. The Wizards and Hornets split two games this month, and it’s Washington that’s won 5 of the last 8 meetings against Charlotte. It’s points or pass for me. Yuck.
