Nuggets V NYK OVER 207
-----
I would not call these teams tired but I would not call them fresh. I think D will not be in the vocabulary tonight as these two teams' collective defenses do NOT match up well against one another. Amare is not a good match for NENE, Gallinari is a TERRIBLE match for Anthony and both these teams have players from last years Blockbuster trade which changed the shape and outlook of both franchises, so I think we are in for a show. Also, NYK has been an under team and this is a WICKED high line.


Hornets +5.5 V Dallas
----
So the hornets covered last game... Thats it give up..... Not really. The reason we like to bet on the hornets is because they are undervalued for their defense and they ALWAYS play hard.
New Orleans may have covered the spread last game against houston, but they have still yet to break their SU losing streak and they will certainly come to play on their home floor against the champs. Plus, Dallas is wicked tired and has covered many of their recent games this line seems a point or two too high.


Jazz -7.5 V Minnesota
----
Minnesota has been on the road for a while and I think this is a huge let down spot for them for many reasons. For starters the Jazz may not be as talented as the clippers but they are sure as hell a much better defensive team and a much much more disciplined team. The Jazz need a win on their home floor after losing a tough one to the Champs the other night. They will defend and box out more than I think minny is comfortable with, and I feel like Kristic is going to have a much harder time with that up and under move against good rotation and help D.


Rockets V Spurs UNDER 192
-----
This one to me is just extra low. You got two over teams going head to head for the second time. Last time the game was pitched at 6 points higher, now you have two tired squads going at it. Spurs are playing the tail end of a long stretch of games and i think their old age will show tonight especially in their ability to get their big men up and down the court in transition.
