How I’m doing:
On the season: 4-4-1
Tonight’s Picks: A sure 2-0
San Antonio (-1) @ Phoenix: The Suns have been a blazing bust since their acquisition of Shaq. This was a trade that was thought to help them in the playoffs; oddly enough, they may not make the playoffs. They play the defending champs, who they used to match up well against. Keyword: Used to. Spurs win, cover.
Chicago @ Detroit (-9): Detroit’s a team that always wins, but sometimes doesn’t win by much. It makes for a hard pick, but Chicago on the road is even harder. Pistons cover.
Sacramento (+14) @ Los Angeles Lakers: You hate picking the big underdog, but this is the NBA, where teams don’t play defense, and 15 point wins aren’t that common. Lakers win, but take the points and the Kings.
