I know a lot of you have turned your attention to baseball but there are still some good plays in the NBA as the season winds down....
ORLANDO -3 over Detroit. This Magic team, like Stella, has got their groove back, playing their best ball of the season. The Pistons theoretically need it more, but are coming off a disappointing loss last night and will have their hands full in this one.
HOUSTON -2 at Dallas. Two teams with virtually the same records, both fighting for the final playoff spot. Why then are the Rockets favored on the road? The answer is because they have the better team. They'll prove that tonight in this important match up.
PORTLAND -3 over Ok City. The Thunder have wrapped up the 3rd playoff spot in the west. The Blazers though are fighting to improve from 6th to 5th so they won't have to face this same Ok City team in round one. Go with the home teams who needs it more.
