The Wizards are the better team and John Wall is the best player on the floor.
The major question, though, is Washington mature enough to win on Atlanta's home court?
I believe they are. The Wizards have a huge backcourt edge with Wall, who is averaging 31 points and 10 assists in the series, and Bradley Beal. They have helped force the Hawks to commit 51 turnovers so far in the series.
The Hawks came back to soundly beat Washington, 116-98, at home in Game 3. But now the Wizards will be much better prepared. I see the Wizards having the poise to match the Hawks' intensity, which was at its peak in Game 3.
