NBA Regular Season 1-30-10


Magic vs Hawks (Slo's pick: Hawks)
Both teams are coming off big wins and both of their wins were against the Celtics. I would take the Magic in this game but I can't trust that Dwight Howard will take over like I know he could. In the past I've taken the Magic for that reason and it hasn't worked out.

Wizards vs Knicks (Slo's pick: Knicks)
The Wizards got lucky last night against the Nets, if they play that way tonight (which they probably will) they're going to lose by 20+.

Grizzlies vs Hornets (Slo's pick: Grizzlies)
The Hornets are coming off a heartbreaker last night against the Bulls, now they have to go in and battle with the always energetic and uptempo Grizzlies in Memphis. After going into OT last night I don't think the Hornets are going to have the legs to compete for 48 minutes tonight.

Bucks vs Heat (Slo's pick: Heat)
The Heat are better than the Bucks in just about every way. Despite being on the road the Heat should still win this game with relative ease.

Mavericks vs Trailblazers (Slo's pick: Mavericks)
The Blazers are coming off a loss in Houston, I highly doubt they're going to have the physical and emotional strength to beat the Mavs tonight in Dallas.

Kings vs Bobcats (Slo's pick: Kings)
The Kings match up well with the Bobcats and if they can stay in it early they will win. Young teams like the Kings are always dangerous at home if you let them think they can win.


Slo's record on the season: 394-199
Slo's record last night: 10-2
