indiana
nyknicks
san antonio

wednesday plays:
dallas-5 mavs need some wins to make a move up in the pairings.......i look for them to take care of business at home wed.night...a couple of home games against houston and golden state is just what the mavs need right now before they hit the road!
la.clippers +3..they need to keep winning to hold on to that #4 seed ...barely ahead of a hot memphis team and must keep winning...clippers are a very good road covering team and denver is not a good home covering team.
utah-4 look for the jazz to pick up a road win wed. night as they try to break into the 8th spot for a playoff birth....should have some momentum after monday nights big w over the champs....this is a very critical game for utah....i expect an all out effort wed.night!

wednesday plays:
dallas-5 mavs need some wins to make a move up in the pairings.......i look for them to take care of business at home wed.night...a couple of home games against houston and golden state is just what the mavs need right now before they hit the road!

lets make it five plays for tonite...thats an awful lot of plays for me but san antoinio can catch okie city with a win and a okie loss to phoenix....gotta go with the hot team and the spurs are HOT!

indiana-5..... i think indiana is going to smoke the bucks thursday night....the bucks will play hard but the talent level is all on the pacers side and they own milwaukee...jump on this one early because this line is going to rise!..
in fact i think the eastern conference should only send 7 teams to the playoffs because philly and milwaukee are going to get popped in the first round anyways!!..they are not playoff calibar teams.
now , if my math is correct , there is one hell of a battle for the 8 spot in the western conference between
utah 33-30...phx 32-30....and....houston 32-30...in fact denver has not got much of a lead on them at 34-28...shaping into a real dog fight down the stretch run!
additional thursday plays:
houston -3...they will get back on track tonite against new orleans with a big W...they really are due for a bust out game here!
phoenix -2...at home against the clippers who are due for a loss....this one should be a good game with the suns winning at home tonite...they will go all out in this one

SAN ANTONIO SPURS -6....i love this new spurs offense averaging 115 points per game the last five games...they are on a major roll and eyeing that #1 slot!...love the way they are playing.....their last loss was on the 11th at home vs. these lakers before running off five stright w's with covers!....and they will give the home crowd a treat by pounding these lakers friday night....spurs won last three on the road and now come home to start a three game home stand...kobe will probably be a little rusty and look out lakers...here come the spurs..they are on a mission with that #1 seed on their minds! foresee a double digit victory by the spurs friday night in san antonio!!

i have eight to ten major stats that i look at and then of course my own personal opinions enter into the picture.....id say it comes out 75% objective(stats and records) and 25 % hunches and personal feelings......in the long run it is the feel for the game that leans you one way or the other in determining a pick...does that answer your question...good luck with your plays!

looking at all the stats i use to determine a winner, everything points to a memphis blow out....just some thing about this pointspread that concerns me...but what the hell...since i am on a roll the hell with my personal feelings...since memphis is so very organized and still playing with a purpose in mind... mainly home court advantage..lets play this one using the empirical data and take a flyer with memphis giving the huge #....they probably will win big but like i said i just dont like giving this many pts. on the road.

phoenix-4 suns are at home and can keep pace with utah for that number 8 seed..... especially after a big thursday night emotional w over the clippers ...this sure had to give the suns a big lift!....... and now they can get a little rest and focus on denver for a big saturday night game!...i look for them to really be focused ...expect a great game from nash and the veterans in this one.
milwaukee -5....bucks have lost three in a row, and this is their last chance for a run.... with upcoming games against jersey, toronto, and philly which are all winnable and all at home at the bradley center, ......before finishing the season at boston next thursday....i like their chances and believe they could beat jersey by dd's saturday night at home.!...if philly loses to indy saturday, bucks get right back in the hunt for the 8th spot with a w!....bucks are having a great season beating teams with losing records!
looking over a couple more games...will post them if i think they have any value later.

orlando is at utah and although utah is laying 9 points i would lean on utah, but not enough to make them a play
indiana needs one win with three games left or an atlanta loss with their four games left to clinch a #3 seed.;...so i m pretty sure indy will be a 3 seed....they would lose any tie breaker with atlanta, but like i say, i dont think thats gonna happen....at first i was worried indy may rest starters, but they still should beat up on lowly philadelphia and clinch the #3 seed saturday...then maybe rest starters next week.....i may make indy a play yet for tonite...looking into it now....will post later if i make them a play.
