I'm not gonna too much into detail why but here it goes:
a) Take Wizards (-2.5) to cover and win in Minnesota. Gilbert Arenas will be playing and the Wolves just plain stink - home or away. Antwain Jamison and Earl Boykins will run circles around Kevin Love and company also. Just like this play.
b) Utah (-7.5) to cover at home vs. 76ers. The 76ers are pathetic. They have no team chemistry and outside of rebounding well.....can't do much else. Utah plays great team basketball, lost to some pretty tough Eastern conference teams in their last 5 games and should rebound nicely with a blow out win at home. Utah wins by 16 points in this one easy.
c) Suns (-3) to cover at Golden State. Expect no defense to be played in this one as it could easily reach a combined total of 245 points. However seeing as the Suns have the better offenses of the two to get to 125-130 points first, Warriors will be lagging behind most of the 4th quarter probably down by 15 or 20 points. Too much three point range bombing by Nash, Barbosa and J-Rich will leave the Warriors in the dust. Suns win easily here 132-118.
d) Spurs (-2.5) at Milwaukee. Spurs beat this Bucks team by 16 points at home back on November 23rd, 2009 this season and lead by as much as 21 in the second half. Coming off a four point home loss to Portland, Spurs will look to rebound against a hapless Bucks team that has lost 7 out of it's last 10. Spurs are also 13-0 in their last 13 games against below .500 teams.
