00:03 >> Another game to pay attention to, the Washington Wizards.
00:06 They have lost 15 consecutive games.
00:09 They're getting seven and a half points tonight at home against Orlando.
00:14 Could the streak come to a close tonight?
00:17 The odds makers don't believe so.
00:18 >> No, I don't think so either.
00:20 Opened up at seven, now is up to seven and a half.
00:22 So the bet's certainly going that direction of the Orlando Magic.
00:25 Here's what you're getting at the end of the season, Ben, right?
00:27 Winding down, do the Washington Wizards care about winning a single
00:30 basketball game?
00:31 No, they want as many ping pong balls as possible for next year's draft.
00:35 So if you take a look at the Magic, who are playing for their playoff lives here
00:38 to try to stay out of those play-in rounds, you gotta win these games.
00:43 They'll win this game, and it's simple for me.
00:45 If you bet the Wizards in this game, they cover, fantastic, you gotta win.
00:48 But chances are, you'll watch this game play out and be like,
00:51 I just took a team that doesn't care about winning versus a team that
00:54 absolutely needs to win.
00:55 What are we doing here?
00:56 Now granted, it's not a pick 'em game.
00:57 It's not just Washington can hold on in this one.
01:00 They're getting seven and a half points, but I'm not trusting them.
01:02 Give me the Orlando Magic on the road tonight.
01:04 I'll take them winning by double digits over the hapless Wizards.
