WIZARDS

MATCHUP BREAKDOWN</div>

Zydrunas Ilgauskas v Brendan Haywood ? This could be a close one; two centers with pretty different playing styles. Haywood has more aggression than Z, who can shoot the J better. I think they?ll average out to pretty even on the statline.
Drew Gooden v Jared Jeffries ? Gooden will be matching up with a taller, yet lighter player. I expect Gooden to use his finesse and advantage of power in this matchup to come out on top.
LeBron James v Antawn Jamison ? If the teams match up in this way, we?ll be in for a thriller. Two class players will be going head to head. I think LeBron would come up trumps, but it will still be spectacular to watch.
Larry Hughes v Antonio Daniels ? Hughes should be able to come out on top, but we know that he is not playing to his full potential. If he has another sub-par game whilst Daniels has a great one, we could see an upset.
Eric Snow v Gilbert Arenas ? Arenas really should come out on top here. He?s everything a point guard should be ? fast, a good passer and able to shoot the J. He may have a slight turnover problem, but I think he?ll hold it up for an advantage.
