The Atlanta Hawks and the Washington Wizards will clash tonight in Game 6 of their NBA 2015 Playoffs series. The Hawks come into the game knowing that one more win would see them through to the next round, however, the Wizards have home court advantage and will be hoping that can help them claim the win tonight to take this series all the way through to a winner takes all Game 7.
Tonight's big NBA game between the Hawks and Wizards has a scheduled start time of 7 p.m. ET and takes place from the Verizon Center in Washington DC. The game can be watched on TV on the ESPN network or online through live stream via the link provided below.
A place in the Eastern Conference Final awaits the winner of this series and Al Horford's score at the end of Game 5 has given the Hawks the clear advantage, as they are now just one win away from progressing.
The Wizards face elimination tonight unless they can make home court advantage count, and things may seem a little like deja vu for them entering this game. Last season they were in the same situation, and in that case they failed and were dumped out of the postseason.
That 80-93 loss to the Indiana Pacers took place on May 15 last year and brought the Wizards season to a premature end in front of their home fans. In both that series against the Pacers, and this year's series against the Atlanta Hawks, the Wizards had held the lead only to find themselves put on the chopping block. They will hope that they have learned some harsh lessons from last season and can avoid a similar fate tonight.
John Wall has said, "I just feel we have a great team that has a chance, even though we're down one (game). We fell in this position last year against Indiana. We don't want to end it at home. We want to have an opportunity to come back and try to close it out (in Atlanta)."
