Boyz,

Try these on for size.....

PHOENIX +15 against San Antonio. It's probably the "old-school" in me but this is an awful lot of points to give on the road......even if you are the Spurs and even if you're facing the pathetic Suns. San Antonio is deep but they will rely very much on their reserves today, resting the big boys. Hold your nose and take the points.

BROOKLYN +7- against Charlotte. Just not sure Charlotte has the pedigree to lay this kind of lumber on the road, particularly after spending a Saturday night in the Big Apple. Hennessey and Ho's for the guys on a road trip tend to weaken the legs. Take the Nets, fresh of a victory over their cross-town rival Knicks.

PORTLAND -3 over Utah. The Blazers are blazing. They're coming off a 32-point pounding of Golden State and have won 13 of 16. The oddsmaker is telling us that a letdown is in order but my money is going on the hot horse.

As always, best of luck
Harry
