Orlando-10
------
Seems like the celtics, despite having bad year, are pretty consistent when it comes to playing teams a second and third time. The one thing about this game though is a lack of Ray Allen. Allen really spreads the floor for the c's and brings the tempo up for both teams. I think that The Magic will pull away in the second half. This was one of the toughest games to cap all season and i almost did not pull the trigger, but O'neal being banged up is really what pushed me to do it. I think Dwight has figured out that his best way to get out of orlando is to play well there and tonight would be a very good game to play well. There is a lot of public money going out on Orlando this season, but this game people HAVE TO BE taking Celtics +10, and I don't blame them, but I think vegas hits the nail on the head. ORLANDO 95-84.
Over 192.5 Clippers V Grizz
-----
These guys are definitely tired, but these two teams are the type to choose offense and leave little in the tank for defense. The Grizz have had a little trouble with the last two teams they played but Portland and Golden State not only match up well with Memphis but have been playing solid D vs most NBA teams.
Tired or not, This total is marginally high considering the totals we have seen in these two teams respective games, and I think that the fact that everyone knows its the Clippers 2nd game in a row and the Grizz 3rd game in 4 nights makes people automatically think under. And in most situations that logic would work, but not tonight.
