NBA Regular Season 3-24-10



Celtics vs Nuggets (Slo's pick: Celtics)
The only reason that I'm taking the Celtics tonight is because the Nuggets just played last night in New York, a game in which their starters logged heavy minutes. Whenever possible I try not to pick teams playing the second half of back to back games on the road.

Hawks vs Magic (Slo's pick: Magic)
The Magic are playing well and I'm pretty down on the Hawks right now. I'm starting to have doubts about them and their legitimacy.

Pacers vs Wizards (Slo's pick: Pacers)
The Pacers are coming off a good win last night in Detroit and now they get to enjoy the pleasure of getting to play the weary Wizards at home.

Raptors vs Jazz (Slo's pick: Jazz)
After this game the Raptors are only going to be 1.5 games up on the Bulls for the final eastern conference playoff spot. This is bad news for the Raptors, the Bulls are 2-0 since Rose's return from a wrist injury and their schedule gets very easy to end the season.

Bobcats vs T'Wolves (Slo's pick: Bobcats)
The Bobcats will have an easy win tonight at home.

Nets vs Kings (Slo's pick: Kings)
I feel bad for the Kings, the crowd they're about to play in front of tonight rivals the crowd at a little league game.

Hornets vs Cavaliers (Slo's pick: Cavaliers)
I'm starting to believe the LeBron James has overtaken Kobe Bryant as the best player in the world. The way James has been playing lately is just unfair.

Bucks vs 76ers (Slo's pick: Bucks)
The Bucks are about as hot as a team can be right now. At this point I don't think there's a team in the league they can't beat. Especially at home.

Thunder vs Rockets (Slo's pick: Thunder)
A disappointing loss to the Spurs will fuel the Thunder tonight. In the west even high seeded playoff teams can't take a night off. It's so close in the western standings that virtually no one's spot is safe.

Spurs vs Lakers (Slo's pick: Lakers)
The Lakers will win tonight in this western conference matchup.

Warriors vs Grizzlies (Slo's pick: Grizzlies)
With playoff hopes still alive, I have a hard time seeing the Grizzlies blow a game to the Warriors.


Slo's record on the season: 556-274
Slo's record last night: 2-2
