ML Dogs - 35-20
Magic -4
Good luck guys.
To be honest with you, I haven't seen the Cavs play since they made the trade. On paper IMO they've got the offense they've desperately needed in Wally, Delonte and Smith, and they're defense which has always been good has gotten better with the addition of Ben Wallace. The only downside in this trade is Hughes was good at guarding the point and was critical in the Cavs beating the Pistons last season. Having said all that, I'm not sure how fast the team will gel.
However, on the other hand, I would not go against the Bucks at home. They are very versatile, quick and shoot the ball well and can be one of the toughest teams to beat at home. Problem with them is their lack of consistency and drive at times.
If they show up tonight, I think they can take this game with ease. Secondly, I wouldn't want to trust the new Cavs lineup on the road just yet. I believe this is their first road game. Rather sit out and learn from this game for the future.
Hope that helps.

I'm leaning with Sac, but how many more games is Miami gonna lose. Can they win this game, possibly. Do I wanna risk it, probably not. Rather wait and see how these teams play the first half and hope for a good second half line.
Washington just had a big win last night at the buzzer. Will they have the emotional energy to focus tonight again on he road in Houston. Same situation here, wouldn't want to risk it. I can see the Rockets running away with this.
No team crashes the boards more than the Jazz, and they're probably the most physical team out there. I don't want to lay 7 with the jazz, but I dont wanna back Minny here either. Could go either way IMO.
Might just play a parlay with the Jazz ML, Suns ML and Rockets ML.
