12/28 - Magic (+4.5) @ Nets

The nets destroyed the magic at home last time they played. Sticking with more of the same. NETS

12/30 - Celtics @ 76ers: Total 165 Over/Under/Push

Last time these two met they cleared it by 4. With this number being so low they can do it again. OVER

12/31 - Clippers @ Raptors: Pick Em!

The second half of a back to back is going to be too much for the jet lagged clippers. RAPTORS

12/31 - Jazz @ Suns: Pick Em!

Picking the home team in what feels like a completely even matchup. SUNS

1/2 - Warriors @ Timberwolves: Total 190 Over/Under/Push

Clash of the Titans at the PF position!each team averages over 95 ppg but gives up less than that. I see this game being high scoring. OVER

1/3 - Clippers @ Bucks: Pick Em!

The bucks are proving they are elite this year. Plus they are at home. BUCKS

1/5 - Lakers @ Pacers: Total 15K In Attendance Over/Under/Push

It's still the lakers coming in town. OVER

1/6 - Knicks @ Grizzlies: Total 180 Over/Under/Push

These two teams both average under 90 ppg. Someone will want to score. OVER

1/8 - Mavs @ Kings: Pick Em!

Penny is going to take over this road game to bring home a victory. MAVS

12/28 - Magic (+4.5) @ Nets

Nets- Nets enter with an impressive 10-2 home record. Gugs should have a huge game. Nets are likely missing Walker in this one, but I think they have enough to hold off the Magic.
12/30 - Celtics @ 76ers: Total 165 Over/Under/Push

Over- They totaled 169 in their last meeting; I expect something similar.
12/31 - Clippers @ Raptors: Pick Em!

Clippers- My clips are hot right now winning 11 of their last 12. We are 5-1 on the road during that streak, the only loss was by a measly one point against the Warriors. 
12/31 - Jazz @ Suns: Pick Em!

Suns- Its been a rough road for the Jazz since a hot 7-0 start. Tough to separate these two, I give the edge to the Suns considering the home court advantage
1/2 - Warriors @ Timberwolves: Total 190 Over/Under/Push

Over- 190 is a big number, but both teams average over 100. Should be a competitive battle til the end, thus I'll take the over. 
1/3 - Clippers @ Bucks: Pick Em!

Clippers- See earlier notes about the Clips. The Bucks are a more formidable opponent than the Raptors, but I still see LAC coming out on top. 
1/5 - Lakers @ Pacers: Total 15K In Attendance Over/Under/Push

Over- I think this is a great line, and if I didnt know any better I might say Push. But I'm hoping KG is enough of a draw to bring it over.
1/6 - Knicks @ Grizzlies: Total 180 Over/Under/Push

Over- Somehow I'm going over again. Both teams come in fresh, should be a competitive game.
1/8 - Mavs @ Kings: Pick Em!
Kings- Should be a fun one to watch; two top tier teams. Kings are at home; plus they are really good, solid top to bottom.

NETS have been on fire lately and are at home. Their dominant inside scoring offense will be challenged by Bo Outlaw and company, but expect Rider to light up Stackhouse's OLÉ defense.

12/30 - Celtics @ 76ers: Total 165 Over/Under/Push
What an ugly matchup. I think it will be OVER, but not by much.

12/31 - Clippers @ Raptors: Pick Em!
Clippers on the road against a Raptors team that is just learning to gel. Raptors will put up a fight, but CLIPPERS take this one on the road and pull out a win with some stout defense.

12/31 - Jazz @ Suns: Pick Em!
No Tim Duncan? Suns @ home? Going SUNS.

1/2 - Warriors @ Timberwolves: Total 190 Over/Under/Push
Had this been pre-trade, I would've undoubtedly pick the wolves at home, but I think the Twolves need to learn their new look squad. Going WARRIORS on the road.

1/3 - Clippers @ Bucks: Pick Em!
I usually so the reverse curse thing, but we've played pretty well at home. It will be a tough defensive battle in a lower scoring game. BUCKS

1/5 - Lakers @ Pacers: Total 15K In Attendance Over/Under/Push
UNDER. The young guys get some run. No one really cares though.

1/6 - Knicks @ Grizzlies: Total 180 Over/Under/Push
UNDER. Vince Carter takes 40 shots and may score 40.

1/8 - Mavs @ Kings: Pick Em!
Kings at home. Gotta go KINGS
