Orlando Magic -1  (1.1 to win 1)

In the battle of two of the worst teams in the league, you gotta roll with the home team.  After last night's double OT loss against the Heat I can't imagine the Kings will have much energy and motivation in this game.  Magic finally getting a little bit healthier and should finally be able to get a winning streak...something they haven't had since before Christmas.  Referees are home friendly.  Magic flying in from Philly...so I would be leery of the OVER in this one as well.

Prediction:  Magic 97  Kings 92

BOL! Thanks for that Miami total, and the Cavs shocked me last night.

Warriors vs. Knicks UNDER 205.5  (1.1 to win 1)

Besides the possible suspensions heading into the game for the Warriors...the Knicks have only hit the 100 mark in 2 of their last 10 games...and for this one to go OVER the total, I think the Knicks have to have around 105-110.  They might get close to that, but I don't see that many points out there.  Knicks have gotten into a slower pace overall with Stoudamire in the lineup. 

Prediction:  Knicks 102  Warriors 93

Milwaukee Bucks +8  (1.1 to win 1)

Just a few too many points here IMO.  The Rockets have been on a roll lately, and are coming into this one well rested, but I don't think they can be justified as a near double digit favorite.  Bucks got a great win last night against the Mavericks in Dallas, and are a very good road ATS team.  Rockets are also adding in their newly acquired players tonight...so the lineups will take some time to get used to.  Public hammering the Rockets so far...but I'll BUCK the trend.

Prediction:  Rockets 109  Bucks 104

Also leaning towards the Suns right now due to the Spurs record in their first home game after the Rodeo road trip in the past couple of years.

Also leaning towards the Nuggets on the road...but I want to see what the line does....might be a look ahead game to the Thunder.

I took the rockets here because the new players will be active but might not play at all. Nice road win for the bucks going into a hostile Houston crowd

Don't like the line...started at 2, but the public has been pounding the Nuggs all day and the line hasn't moved.
