Gonna have to disagree, Denver very average on the road.. Coming home from a long road trip I like the Rockets to win by 6

balt999 · 01-23-13, 11:37 PM

Big Third Quarter was the difference.

Todays NBA PLay is: Suns (+7)

If you're interested in people following your thread, you may want to keep track of your record. I simply put my numbers at the top of each post (for example 21-13-2 for wins-losses-pushes). It's easier to see who's credible and who's not when they're transparent with their picks, and people may want to play your picks if they see you consistently picking winners. Just a thought.

BTW, Suns are playing back to back games tonight, and generally suck. They should get blown out by the Clippers tonight imo.

Easy winner with Hornets/Pelicans (-5). Glad the TrailBlazers decided to start their All-Star break early...I'll be going off the grid today...not liking any sides so I'll give a total:

Miami/Oklahoma City under 204.5.
