    520 Portland Trailblazers -2
    I still believe portland will still be riding the streak again

    504 Atlanta Hawks -2½

    last year's eastern conf. champion should not get points from an average team

    Lakers/Hornets Over 204½ last time they played scored well over this amount. Last few games high scoring. not much defense.

    Bucks/Heat Under 189 2 teams who put up more bricks than baskets. should be under 180

    cavs +2 1/2 hawks have hit a rough patch. I think the cavs can pull this one off.

    Bucks -4 1/2 bucks put the heat away nicely last time i think they got too much fire power for the heat at this point

    Dallas -2.5 : Looking for Dallas to be really up for this big game and cover the small spread.



    Dallas over 189 : I think Dallas hit the 100+ mark tonight so I am going with the over here.

    New Orleans Hornets -2½
    The New Orleans are hot, winning 8 of their last 10. Tonight they match up against the Lakers who are on 0 days rest. Chris Paul should have a great night... I am backing the Hornets tonight.

    Dallas Mavericks -2½
    The Dallas Mavericks are heating up, especially at home where they are 16-3. Tonight they match up with the Detroit Pistons at home. The general public is expecting a Detroit to win as a dog, but when I see the public take Dogs, I tend to take Favs in those situations.

    Miami Heat +4.5 If Pat Riley is going out,the team doesn't want him leaving on a sour note of getting beat by the worst team in the NBA,the Timberwolves and then getting beat by a bad Bucks team.

    Phoenix Suns under 225 A high over for high scoring teams but they looked tired and a bit roughed up after the other night with the Nuggets in that scoring eruption.

    SEATTLE SONICS +8: The Nets had won five in a row before their 16-point loss in Charlotte last night, but they are still just 8-11 SU and 7-11-1 ATS at home. Furthermore, despite their winning streak, they have still gone 16 consecutive games without winning by more than eight points, with only one win in this streak being by exactly eight! In other words, they would be 0-15-1 ATS vs. this posted line. (This line has actually moved to 8½, so make that 0-16!)

    MIAMI HEAT +4½: Yes Miami blows chunks, but Milwaukee is just 6-8 ATS at home, and they are actually being slightly outscored by an average of -0.4 points per game in their own building. Not surprisingly, they are a dismal 1-7 ATS as a favorite this season. I just don’t trust them laying any points.

    UMass -4: Shit line, but I'd play UMass up to -6 in this spot. The Minutemen have developed a very strong home court under Travis Ford, and St. Joe's lack of depth will make it difficult for the Hawks to play at UMass' pace for 40 min. UMass' athleticism is a significant edge, Nivins, who's prone to foul trouble, will have to run back on transition defense all night, and Calathes will also have to work on the defensive end, which should diminish his effectiveness offensively. UMass' guard play will be the difference in the second half as Martelli's squad starts to tire.

    Warriors/Blazers OVER 208: What can I say... I'm a sucker for low GS totals, and since I have no strong opinion on anything on tonight's card other than UMass and this contest calls for 2 plays, this will have to due. Each of GS's last four have sailed comfortably over tonight's number, and a rested Blazers team may be willing to relent and play at the Warriors' pace.

    Sea/NJ under 196.5 - These teams tend to get tired legs easily, and this is a high number IMO, even though NJ has been going high recently.

    Char/Bos under 189.5 - This total is cutting it close, I admit, but I don't see this one as getting too intense. Charlotte won't have the energy to make things happen, and Bos won't be motivated to run up the score, so I see this one as more likely to stay under than not.

    Indiana State +10.5: I have been riding Drake all year, but I think Indiana State is playing good basketball right now. 10 points is just too much to give.

    UAB vs. Tulane Over 133: I considered a play on UAB, but getting 1 point is a pick 'em. UAB has an up and coming star in Robert Vaden. When the line is close, and the game could go either way, take the over.

    Gamecocks are simple horrible. I'll be stunned if this is within 20 at the end.

    Davidson -12
    Wildcats are the cream of the SoCon. Even on the road, I expect them to cover this number.

    Pistons vs. Mavs.
    I will go with my Pistons. They will win outright after losing to the Celtics and having a few days off.

    Minnesota over Northwestern
    Minnesota played tough against MSU. I think Tubby will have his team lay it on against a bad Northwestern team.

    1-6 in Parlay contest. 7-7 in parlay games.

    520 Portland Trailblazers -2-Portland is surprising this season and are an impressive 14-3 at home.

    521 Orlando Magic -4-Orlando will be hungry for a win after losing three straight and are an impressive 15-6 at home while The Clippers are only 5-10 on the road.

    LA Clippers +4 and Under 189

    Orlando has been losing lately, they're b2b and Clippers have been decent at home. II like their chances of keeping this one close. Also taking the under.
