NBA Regular Season 3-1-10


Bulls vs Hawks (Slo's pick: Hawks)
Bulls' C Joakim Noah is going to be sidelined for awhile due to a foot injury. Against the high octane Hawks Noah is essential because he brings enough energy to almost offset the Hawks' energy altogether. For the Bulls to win this game Derrick Rose is going to have to play out of his mind, I'm talking like in the 50 point range.

Cavaliers vs Knicks (Slo's pick: Cavaliers)
LeBron James and the Cavs should enjoy an easy win tonight against the Knicks.

76ers vs Magic (Slo's pick: Magic)
There is no way the Magic should lost tonight to the mediocre Sixers.

Bobcats vs Mavericks (Slo's pick: Mavericks)
I'm not fully confident in taking the Mavs tonight on the road, they won last night in Dallas but back to back games can be tricky. That being said, the Bobcats aren't playing well enough to justify taking them against a top tier western conference team.

Hornets vs Spurs (Slo's pick: Hornets)
The Spurs just played yesterday afternoon and won a tight game with the Suns. I'm not confident that they're going to have the energy to run up and down for a full 48 tonight.

Grizzlies vs Trailblazers (Slo's pick: Trailblazers)
The Blazers have been very hard for me to pick all season long. To be honest I really don't even think they're going to win tonight. I'm taking them based on what everyone else thinks of them because I haven't seen them enough to have an educated opinion.

Rockets vs Raptors (Slo's pick: Rockets)
These teams are pretty even talent wise. The Rockets get the nod because they're home.

Suns vs Nuggets (Slo's pick: Nuggets)
Both teams suffered rough losses yesterday. The Nuggets get the pick simply because they're the better team.

Clippers vs Jazz (Slo's pick: Jazz)
The Jazz should win tonight with minimal difficulty.


Slo's record on the season: 480-246
Slo's record on Feb. 27th: 4-3
