NBA Regular Season 2-10-10


Bulls vs Magic (Slo's pick: Magic)
Without Joakim Noah in the lineup the Bulls are going to have a nightmare trying to handle Dwight Howard. The Bulls definitely could win, but given the massive mismatch under the glass I can't pick them.

Hornets vs Celtics (Slo's pick: Celtics)
Trade rumors are whirling in Boston concerning both Glen Davis and future Hall of Fame member Ray Allen. I'm not sure how this will effect them but I still think the Celtics will win tonight in New Orleans.

Hawks vs Heat (Slo's pick: Hawks)
The Heat are coming off a 33 point thrashing of the Houston Rockets. I have a hard time seeing them put together a similar performance tonight in Atlanta. Without a full tank of gas it's nearly impossible to beat the Hawks in Atlanta.

Raptors vs 76ers (Slo's pick: Raptors)
The Sixers don't have the depth to compete with the Raptors for a full 48 minutes. The Raptors will win tonight in Toronto.

Pistons vs Kings (Slo's pick: Kings)
The Pistons are coming off an impressive win last night against the Bucks. I have a hard time seeing such a mediocre team put forth another quality performance tonight against the Kings.

Nets vs Bucks (Slo's pick: Bucks)
I will never pick the Nets in another game this season.

T'Wolves vs Bobcats (Slo's pick: Bobcats)
The Bobcats are going to win easily tonight Minnesota. I'll be surprised if this game is close.

Suns vs Trailblazers (Slo's pick: Suns)
The Suns are going to run all over the Blazers tonight in the desert. The Blazers are going to be a .500 team until they can get healthy again.

Warriors vs Clippers (Slo's pick: Clippers)
The Warriors' heart and soul, Monta Ellis, is uncertain for tonight's game. That being the case, I can't pick the Warriors tonight. Especially because I'm not even sure if the Warriors would win with him in the lineup.


Slo's record on the season: 422-213
Slo's record last night: 8-3
