Nets vs Wizards prediction

The Nets are the more talented team and should be favored, especially as they’re still somewhat in the playoff conversation. However, the Nets continue to disappoint, and they’re not a team I trust in the favorite role, especially on the road. The Nets have lost 8 of their last 10 games and have failed to cover 7 of those games. The Wizards have somehow won 3 straight games, and they did beat the Nets as big underdogs back in December. There’s much better options out there on a loaded NBA Wednesday, but give me the home dog if forced to pick. Two bad teams, I want the free buckets.
