Heat vs Cavaliers (Slo's pick: Heat)
The Cavs are playing back to back nights and that will spell their demise. Miami is too good of a team to not be at your best against. This is LeBron James' first trip to Miami this season, the Heat are rumored to be one of James' desired destinations in next summer's free agent frenzy. Don't think for a second that James' won't be looking to see how the Heat's roster matches up to his.
Lakers vs Suns (Slo's pick: Suns)
Without center Pau Gasol the Lakers are a shell of their championship-selves. Right now the Suns are a juggernaut firing on all cylinders and i have serious doubt that the Lakers will be able to stop them tonight. The one thing that the Lakers have going for them is that the Suns are playing on back to back nights but considering how few minutes the Suns' starters played last night that's not likely to be a big issue.
Slo's record on the season: 77-43
Slo's record last night: 9-4
