CLE/TOR over 198.5 - Cleveland's defense will probably let down a bit going on the road after the Memphis game. Toronto's fast-paced offense hasn't been too productive so far, but they will probably continue to push it and get over this number.
NORL/PHOE over 208 - Similar to the game above, NORL's defense will probably lose a tick of intensity here, and Phoenix will be able to do their running in their usual manner. One quarter in the 60s and the other 3 near 50 should get this one over.
UTAH/SAC under 205 - Sacramento has been in some unexpectedly high scoring games recently, but they are still a defensively-minded team, especially at home, and Artest & Co. will likely be hyped up for a challenge to slow down the buzzing Utah offense.
SEA/LAC under 200.5 - Similar to the game above, the Clippers are also a team that takes D seriously when at home, and after losing the Laker challenge yesterday, will probably be going back to basics on D for this one. High-scoring Seattle has the tendency to lose their offensive focus when challenged on D on the road.
