I like the Suns tonight here as they have won 2 straight and 3 of their last 5. I know they are beating world beaters, but for a young team confidence in a winning a few can go along ways.
The reason for this pick is simple for me. I think this young Suns team will want to stick it to Bledsoe here who returns after being traded. Immediately after he was gone the Suns played some good ball didn't always result in wins but they played better.

This will be the third meeting between these two teams as they played one of those back to back home and home. Both teams won on their home court but the Grizzlies were favored by 7.5 and that was a healthy Memphis team then. Well, now they are completely different with Conley out and the results show. They have lost 5 straight and 6 of 7. I want no part of this Memphis team for a while and also do you think they will be that motivated here against this Mavs team?

The T Wolves will definitely be the public side here with all the names they have. However when it comes to the road they are one of the worst defensive teams in the league. I think what people are failing to realize with this Hornets team is that they are home team. They have a 5-2 home record and a 1-7 road record. Hornet get it done tonight

I like the T Wolves here tonight against the Spurs. The T Wolves will be looking for revenge here from a loss earlier this season @ the Spurs. They were actually favored in that game so figuring this is a home court and the Wolves are catching the Spurs on a back to back I think the price is too good. Spurs are just 1-4 ATS on the road this season. They come in winning 5 of 6 but they have beat teams like the Mavs Bulls and Suns, 3 of the worst teams in the league. T Wolves are starting to play a lot better winning 6 of their last 8 with one of those losses being @ Warriors.

Grizzlies are finishing a 5 game road trip where they look to have a winning record with a win here so you can expect great effort. This will also only be the 2nd game for the Grizzlies in 6 days so they are fresh here.

When generally the bottom half teams play the Warriors and the Warriors have had two days rest they are easily favored by double digits. The fact the Spurs are still a household name keeps this lower than what it should be. My free pick was on the Warriors last game @ Clippers and they just destroyed them.

So they have played those two teams and also the Raptors it's hard to find a tougher schedule out of the gate like that. This team just like the Mavs last night we is desperate for their first win. The thing to remember is that the Hawks are no good also as their only win came against the Mavs who just picked up their first. Now, they are without their best player in Schroeder who really makes that offense go. I look for the Bulls to pull away with their first victory tonight

I think it's going to take a while now for the Celtics to find their rhythm here as we all know they are dealing with the loss of Hayward. It wouldn't be as big of an issue to me if they had more experience, but its 2nd year player Brown and rookie Tatum asked to step up. While, I do love both of them I think right now isn't the right time. This Sixers team was right in the game @ Washington and they are a team to keep your eye on especially healthy. Sixers actually have the better matchups here also

Love the Bucks here tonight for their home opener against their division rival in the Cavs. I wasn't very impressed with the Cavs at all on opening night as we all know what the Celtics had to over come and go through and they still had a chance at the end of the game. The Bucks are a team in the East to look out for as we saw first hand with how they handled Boston @ Boston. The Greek Freak is a machine and the Cavs have no one including LeBron that can stop him.

No team made a bigger splash this off season IMO than the Celtics as far as adding value to their team. The trade in getting Kyrie was huge, plus the addition of Hayward. Not to mention they drafted the best offensive player in Jayson Tatum. This Celtics team can really defend the ball here. Another major point in this game is that Thomas is out for the Cavs for a while. It's going to be a major adjustment I think for them. Yes they Wade now, but his minutes will be limited. Celtics will want to prove something here I think they win here tonight

There is a lot of talk now that he media will drive here with a possible Rondo return. It doesn't matter to me if he does or not the momentum has shifted big time here as the Celtics now put their foot down. The Celtics were in full control of both of those games in Chicago and now return home where I expect them to have a huge effort. Let's say Rondo returns here, is he really going to provide a spark offensively with a broke thumb? He could never shoot anyways and that will allow the Celtics to really crowd the paint and take away what he does best and that is drive the ball
