11/16 - Timberwolves @ Magic: Total 190 Over/Under- both teams rank between 13-16th in scoring, but the Magic are defending pretty well. This is a good number but I'm taking the under. 11/17 - Heat @ Suns: Pick Em!- Heat 1-4 on the road Suns 2-0 at home. Gimme Pheonix 11/20 - Sonics @ Spurs (- 4.5)- The Sonics have a double digit winning margin, AND are getting 4.5 points. I'll take the road dog. 11/21 - Pacers (+6.5) @ 76ers- Pacers are still looking for their first road win. I don't know if they get it here or not, but I don't see Philly winning by 7. 11/23 - Knicks @ Kings: Total 200 Over/Under- If this was over/under 200 blocks for Marcus Camby I'd consider the over, but if it's still points I think the game is a defensive one. 11/25 - Warriors @ Mavericks (-3.5)- I have a new rule when it comes to this series take the home team. 11/26 - Hawks @ Blazers: Pick Em! - Talk about a scheduling nightmare. The Hawks play at home on the 23rd, get a day off travel 3,000 miles to Portland to play on the 26th and travel 3,000 miles back home that night for a game in Atlanta on the 27th, I'm taking the Blazers.

11/16 - Timberwolves @ Magic: Total 190 Over/Under Have a feeling this will be a higher-than-average scoring game with Chris Webber and Grant Hill taking on a frontcourt with little depth of the Magic, but Wolves lost Houston for a sim. If I was picking winner I'd go with the home team, but this is about points so I'll take the Under on this.
11/17 - Heat @ Suns: Pick Em! Going with the Suns, they are much improved this season and the new additions for his team had a good first impression. Heat are struggling on the road and this isn't the Suns of the last two seasons.
11/20 - Sonics @ Spurs (- 4.5) Chris Gatling played out of his mind to start the season, but the Spurs have the frontcourt to slow down the Sonics strength down low. We're all waiting to see when Eazy can put it all together and has the only win against the Mavericks this very very early season (which was home in San Antonio). Spurs win and cover
11/21 - Pacers (+6.5) @ 76ers No matter what team Pauly puts out each season they are still at or near the very top of the division. Their frontcourt has completely put this team on its back led by Stacey Augmon, the #1 scorer in the league currently. It's a true battle between frontcourt vs backcourt, and I like the Pacers chances.
11/23 - Knicks @ Kings: Total 200 Over/Under We might not have Marcus Camby today and our defense will take a hit, but I still think this is going to be a low scoring affair for both sides with a good chance of not even covering 170 points. Definitely Under
11/25 - Warriors @ Mavericks (-3.5) Mavs are tough. Warriors are tough. Mavericks have balance at all positions and is most likely the best team in the league, and the Warriors don't have the backcourt to even slow down Penny & Crew. Mavs win and cover.
11/26 - Hawks @ Blazers: Pick Em! Battle of 2 nasties, I'm going to take the home team Blazers because Blazers are 3-0 home and Hawks are 0-5 on the road.

theysndicate can't do it because of his crazy work schedule. Would anyone from the Midwest like to volunteer and participate?

Just as an FYI, if no one for the Central or Midwest can do it, the division will receive 0 points for the sim pick em tallies.

Wolves/Magic: OVER both teams have some scoring punch so I expect it to get into the hundreds
Heat/Suns: SUNS iverson and brown take over the game late in the 4th and give inner and his Suns an early season win
Sonics/Spurs: SPURS I like the Spurs at home here against a very good Seattle squad. Look for the underrated Dale Davis to have s big game
Pacers/Sixers: PACERS The pacers perimeter defending will shut down an already poor philly offense and give them a narrow victory.
Knicks/Kings: UNDER Both teams don't score very well and the Knicks will barely put up 80 so definitely under
Mavericks/Warriors: MAVS the mavs at home is always a safe bet
Hawks/Blazers: BLAZERS Portland should roll over a young Hawks team at home

11/16 - Timberwolves @ Magic: Total 190 Over/Under Think this will be low scoring game but magic d will not be enough to pull out the w.
11/17 - Heat @ Suns: Pick Em! Young team playing well together, take the w at home.
11/20 - Sonics @ Spurs (- 4.5) spurs win at home.
11/21 - Pacers (+6.5) @ 76ers hers defense needs to improve.
11/23 - Knicks @ Kings: Total 200 Over/Under Just not enough offense.
11/25 - Warriors @ Mavericks (-3.5) Good game Mavs win home game.
11/26 - Hawks @ Blazers: Pick Em Hawks have better offense?
