The Celtics are coming off a monster performance in game five, in which they dominated the Wizards with fantastic defense, transition baskets (the Wizards really need to focus here,) and a three-point barrage led by Avery Bradley. They look to close it out tonight and advance to the Eastern Conference Finals, but have had a brutal time trying to win in Washington recently.

The Wizards need their stars, John Wall and Bradley Beal, to play like stars after a middling game five performance. They have to in order to make up for their bench, which as usual is providing very little to help the cause.

That’s it from me for this one; I’m exhausted.
