Boyz,
There are some wacky lines on the board tonight. Let's analyze the reasons for it and take advantage......
PHILLY +1- against NYKnicks. It's been over a year since the 76ers won two games in a row. That streak of futility ends tonight against the putrid Knicks, losers of 5 or their last 6. There's a new GM in town for Philly. He'll be smiling tonight.
ORLANDO -1 over Miami. The Magic have long been out of the playoff hunt, but they've enjoyed playing the role of spoiler. Orlando has won 4 of last 6, their offense really sparkling. This is the first of a home and home set. Miami needs the game more but they played last night. I'll go with the rested home team.
NEW ORLEANS -2- over Lakers. The Hornets have been banged up but have also been playing hard. There's no quit in them. The Lakers meanwhile are pathetic, with little heart or leadership. Metta World Peace has been seeing playing time for goodness sakes! Another loss for Kobe and the boys.
DALLAS -6- over Memphis. Two teams heading in opposite directions. The Mavs are fighting for a playoff spot and have been on a bit of a roll. Take the hotter team at home.
DENVER -2- over San Antonio. The Spurs have beaten the Nuggets 10 straight times. The Nuggets have also been playing like crap. So why are they favored?! Because the Spurs 'left their heart in San Francisco'. Last night's loss to the Warriors pretty much put an end to any emotion you'll see out of Pop's boys for the remainder of the regular season. Fade 'em tonight.
As always, best of luck
Harry
