Wizards on the brink
 

Washington Wizards at Cleveland Cavaliers (Cavs lead 3-1)
Wednesday, 6:05 pm Eastern – TNT

SBG Global Opening Line: Cavaliers - 4.5, Total 192

The Cleveland Cavaliers will try and put away the Washington Wizards on Wednesday night and end the war of words. For some reason the Wizards have talked a lot of trash in the series but all it has done is motivate LeBron James to play even better. James has averaged 29.5 points, 8.5 rebounds and 6.5 assists in the series. SBG Global reports that early NBA betting has the public taking Cavaliers at Home.

James knows Wednesday’s game won’t be easy but he is confident. "I just have confidence in our team," he said. "It has nothing to do with the Wizards. They're a very good team, but they've got to beat us three straight games and I can't see that happening." The Wizards would do a lot better to keep their mouths shut and play basketball rather than antagonize one of the best players in the NBA.
"I've never seen a series like this where you have music involved, you have trash talk involved, everything," said Cavaliers forward Joe Smith, "I guess that's the way the sport has grown and when you have a rivalry like this, there's no telling what you might find." At least one player on the Wizards is tired of his teammates running their mouth. Antawn Jamison has had enough. "All this talking throughout the media, about this and that, is really beneath me," he said. "And I'm kind of disappointed that my team has kind of bought into it. But it's just about going out there and playing the game. They've been doing that, they're up 3-1, so they can say what they want to say."
