The only weak offensive team here is New Jersey, but guess what? That game is on the road! You guys saw what happened with the Kings. No gimmes. Charlotte does not score a lot, but they shoot a decent percentage and have Wahington's number. The other 7 teams are pretty damn good offensively and all average triple digits. 6 of those teams 7 teams have a .500 or better record. The Wizards have not defeated a team with a .500 or better record. How many games do you think the Wizards can actually win here?
