Oklahoma City Thunder vs Washington Wizards Picks and Predictions | NBA Best Bets for 2/23/24
Washington Wizards versus Oklahoma City non-conference Event both teams played last night both teams in the second legs of a back to back and if there’s a coach I trust on the second leg of back to back it’s the Oklahoma City Thunder coaching staff in dogon absolutely does the best job of scheming organizing
Choreographing bulk games in a short period of time or back to Second leg of a back toback three games four nights three games and five nights four and six etc etc that coaching staff for the Thunder Over the Top Wizards 9 and 45 overall um tough tough to look at that
Record to be honest with you Oklahoma City beat the Clippers last night to move in the second in Western Conference or stay in second and threaten the Timberwolves who sit a top the West the Thunder or the Wizards uh had lost eight straights after losing to the the
Pelicans right before the all-star break 133 126 last night they lost their ninth straight Oklahoma City took down Orlando 1 127 113 before the L break they’d won two straight they won their third in row last night against the Clippers Wason playing without Isaiah livers Oklahoma City unbelievable clean clean sheet on the
Court clean sheet off the court not one injury on the injury list at least right Washington um cannot is going to struggle to win games second half this season if they don’t understand that you have to defend as well as score um this Washington team is not capable of outscoring their
Defense sounds weird right but a saying I’ve used for years and years and that is some teams have the ability to outscore what their defense scores or allows in this situation Washington cannot outscore what their defense performs too the 16th in scoring Wasing 115 a game shooting 40 7 48 from the
Field overall they shoot poorly from the three and that’s what Oklahoma City does they they they sag they protect the rim and force everything to the outside to the perimeter and do their best to at least their best and their best pretty Dar good to contest threes any
Shot for that matter Washington unless Kyle kma’s on this team is really in trouble uh even with even with scoring potentially players like Jordan p uh and with tyus Jones orchestrating an offense like this as far as as far as Washington’s ability to go on the road they haven’t
Been it’s tough to unless we go deep into the metrics to discuss who Washington is as a visitor as they are at home because they’ve won nine games all year nine nine games that’s it and only a few left too right um this team’s going to be very fortunate to win 15 all
Year that’s not what I’d won as a season ticket holder especially the fact is that there’s I don’t see a lot of I don’t see a bright future for this Washington team as they are the the roster that they and skills that they they holster as a team as a whole Oklahoma
City’s a tough stop right now they’re top of their game they have reached the level of elite in my opinion led by Shay Gil Alexander and with a with a young Chad home in the middle and and a bench that’s deep and Broad and can do and so is is versatile no more
Versatile than any bench in the league being instructed by one of the best coaching staffs in the league in my opinion easily I I I I will argue that with almost anybody for at length for as long as you want to argue it the Thunder they’re too strong
Offensively for Washington to keep Pace again Washington cannot outscore with their defensive l especially when they’re facing a team like Oklahoma City will Oklahoma City the big concern here really isn’t and I could go through all of Oklahoma City number Oklahoma City’s numbers with you numbers that I
Know you know if you’ve watched me this deliver you a game preview they can’t outscore what okl city now here’s the question in back toback dog’s not concerned about cover numbers just don’t get me don’t mistake me for saying I I have respect for him being able to
Navigate these back to backs because he’s covering numbers and winning he’s winning uh in a situation like tonight it’s keeping his healthy players healthy rested a lot more games you have to play before they you know before they find who where who they are and where they
Are in the bracket as far as their position in the postseason and laying the numbers they’re laying tonight at home against Washington is a tough lay let’s go to Let’s Go a different direction Washington can’t stop anybody and I EXA I imagine and I believe wholeheartedly passionately the dognut and his staff
Are going to be playing the second and third rotations most of the second half of the game tonight because of the margin which in turn results some easier buckets than you would normally get against this Thunder team because of the player Personnel on the floor fins picked the click tonight in Oklahoma
