So I don't post often, if at all, but I'm gonna lay largeee on Indiana tomorrow as my play of the year.  I don't have to go far other then to say, what benefit does Washington have to win this game:

Currently, wash sits with 25 wins.  That's tied with Golden state and Sacramento for third worst record in the league.  A win here by Washington and that will equal a drop to 5th or 6th worse and alot less potential lottery balls for a Washington team that desperately needs it.

An Indiana win does nothing for Indiana's lottery chance.

Washington will probably play a good first half as they did in New York 2 nights ago, but they will tank this game.  I am sure of it.

Indiana -2 LARGEEEEE

I like this play a lot. Indiana wants to get rid of that ugly loss to Orlando out of their rear view mirror going into the postseason.

At first glance I really liked this play too...

but now I just think it looks WAY too easy.

I'm going to look into the Pacers first half instead.

Don't count on it. Historically, how many teams that "need to lose" to maintain draft position actually tank?

An Indiana team getting ready to jump in their golf carts is more likely as a young, spirited Washington team looks to avoid the series sweep.

Got me thinking as well, I wish I paid more attention to the stats on the last day of the regular season

To me, against Washington second half looks better.  Look at second halves L5.  Washington lays down by  6, 21, 11, 8, and 12.

Golden State beat Oklahoma on Sunday. Do you think they needed a win?

Your logic seems solid but the problem is the teams never actually do the right thing. I can't tell you how many times I see in the NFL a team can lock the #1 pick up with a loss and then they go out and win a worthless game. Then when draft day comes around they would have to give up an arm and a leg to go from the #2 pick back to #1. I don't know why the owners don't just step in sometimes and demand a tank. It would make sense here but stupid Washington will probably go all out trying to win.

Is Vegas going to clean up?  
Or is Washington going to lay down?

Lesson learnt. Washington tried to lose it but Indiana didn't give a shit about it.

I have a new way to vent out my frustrations. I tweet the players and slam them for their lack of effort. I'm not expecting a reply or anything. I just want them to read it.

I don't think they'll care either but I think its going to look bad when all their other followers read it.

So expect a tweet tonight, Danny Granger.
