Suns -2.5 Short and sweet today , as I am running out things to say. As in game 1, the story remains the same. When the Spurs played Dallas, the Mavs did not play in the paint, and I said in game 1 the Suns would, and they out scored them in the paint by 12 points and out rebounded them. The Suns also shot 51% from the floor and the Spurs over 45%, they just flat out are the better team at home. If the Suns continue to challenge the rim they will win again. In the last 3 meetings the Suns have won by 10 ppg at home and no less than 9. I expect the same today. Play 1 Unit on the Suns

Phoenix -3.5 Just a brutal series for the Spurs against hated rival Dallas, and a good scheduling spot for the Suns at home here they shoot better, play better defense, and have a strong homecourt. Getting Steve Nash well rested after sitting out practice with a sore hip the past 2 days is all good, and the frontcourt of the Suns will be more of an issue for Spurs than Dallas was, who never push it in the middle. The Suns won both games at home this year against the Spurs by double digits, and while I do not expect a blowout, I expect a 6-8 point win at home for the Suns tonight, who are determined to get over on the Spurs tis year, a team who has knocked them out f contention in the post season many times.

Pheonix +1 Time to start betting the best team, especially in a pick em ballgame. Even though Roy had a great game his first game back to inspire his team, that has worn off. I like the frontcourt of the Suns to take over and the backcourt with Richardason to have a big night. No replacing the experience of Steve Nash as court general on the point in a situation like this and that will be a key factor tonight, as I expect him to step up and lead his team in this game.

I doubt the Spurs bench can support like game 4 in this one and Dallas at home will play tough as hell in this one against a hated rival. I have a feeling the Mavs EXPLODE in this one and set the tone for the next game, but extreme focus will be KEY for Dallas. They will have it. The Mavs head coach has brought a team back from a 1-3 deficit to win a series before, and while rare, I think they get this one at home tonight by 10 points.

The perimeter defense of the Bobcats has left Nelson and Carter up top for open looks, 42 points in production alone last game. Howard held Theo Ratliff to 2 points on the low post, and Charlotte simply does not match up well in this one and have failed to cover 6 out of their last 8 games. Really like Orlando to close it out on the road here and get some rest and healing time for round 2 of the playoffs. If Orlando shows up, and word is they will, they should put it away tonight by 6-9 points.

Nowitzki was on the only starter in double digits with 35 last game, and I assure you Dallas will give their best effort of the series to date right here with a team effort. They will also use the rebounding advantage this game and no doubt step up their offense. They scored 90 with only 1 starter getting double digit points the last game, I expect a 100+ out of them today and highly motivated.

With Batum out with a bad shoulder, this leaves both him and Brandon Roy out of the lineup, 2 KEY players that got them here and being short handed against the Suns, who have not forgotten the game 1 loss at home and want to return the favor is a bad deal for Portland. They bounced back with a 29 point win in game 2 and the adjustment by oddsmakers is just unreal in this game, I have a power rating of 6 points difference that is a 5 point overlay. Phoenix when motivated is 10 points better than a shorthanded Blazers team, and I believe they are motivated.

The difference between these 2 teams and their stars, Durrant and Bryant, is that Kobe has a strong and deep supporting cast, with an experienced head coach who know how to put teams away early in the early rounds of the playoffs. LA knows they can beat OK City anywhere and anytime at days end, and I doubt they fall flat because they are on the road. Both teams shot under 40% for game 2, and both under 30% from 3 point range. LA outrebounded OK City 49-37 and that will continue and that adds up to cheap points, enough to cover a small number here.

Both teams have the ability to score a ton here in this matchup. They have eclipsed this total the last 8 times they have played including last week when they scored 200 points. They average 198 ppg combined on the year and about 189 on defense. Look for a wide open affair.

The Bulls are healthier than they have been in awhile as well. Two weeks ago the Bulls POUNDED the Nets by 23 at home and while the spread will not be that large here, they will win by double digits.

This is a simplistic approach but LA needs a win in the worst way and this game also would clinch the best record in the conference for the third straight season and after dropping 3 out of the last 4 to Denver, LA would very much like to set the tone for the playoffs with a big win tonight on TNT. Denver just 2-9-1 ATS their last 12 games. The numbers do not support this play in terms of last 5 games stats, but Kobe is money on TNT time and time again and Denver is 1-8 ATS their last 9 as a favorite.

Spurs -3 Clippers lost their coach, and the Spurs off a BAD loss on Thursday blowing a huge lead and losing to the Blazers on national TV. 2 days of reat here against a team they have pounded 10 straight against and in dire need of a bounceback win. Clips 8-0-1 ATS their last 9 at home, time for that trend to reverse, Spurs will come in here with their ears pinned back and already have beaten the Clips by 16 this year.

Oklahoma City -1.5 Off a big win against the Hawks last night, the scoring machine Durant continues to impress and OK City is the real deal. Injuries to the Hornets in the backcourt loom large in this game for New Orleans, I like the less than a bucket with a far better team who is making a mid season move right now. Lots of youth and talent, I will lay the small number.
Play 1 Unit on OK City tonight.

Dallas +2 Not sold on the Suns in a serious slump (3-7 SU last 10) and off an OT loss to Charlotte on Tuesday. The Mavs played 2 days ago, and won a tight one against the Bucks, and off 2 days rest, they are 6-1 ATS this season. The Mavs not a good cover team on TNT only 5 covers out of their last 26 games, but 90% they are big favs, and we find them here playing a team with no defense, they have better depth, rebounding, turnovers, defense. I like the Mavs to win SU tonight. Suns 6-20 ATS on TNT their last 26 and Dallas has won the last 3 meetings in this series and covered 2 of them.
Play 1 Unit on Dallas...BONUS NCAA Play - Arizona State -3 for a half unit. Thanks and best of Luck. TG

Lakers -8 Yes I know it is their 4th road game, but The Knicks are a whipping boy in this one, just off getting pounded by the Clippers at home, the Lakers come in here and get it done by double digitsd tonight. They have an advantage in every stat area that counts and I have a 14 point overlay against the spread in power ratings here, and that is counting what homecourt I give the Knicks which is 2 points here. LA rolls.

Orlando -9.5 Orlando already beat Sacramento in CA by 21 points on the 12th of this month. Sacramento is giving up 104 ppg on the road and the KEY here is two things. Orlando is healthy and at home, Vince Carter will play tonight, and this the Kings 5th road game in row in 7 days..a brutal stretch where they have lost every game, and 9 out of their last 10 overall. A HUGE frontcourt mismatch in the Magic
