Here is tonight's NBA schedule; each game has a quick "what to watch for" note in 20 words or less, followed by MY predicted spread/winner. Enjoy!
*all times Mountain Standard Time*
Detroit @ Cleveland 5:00 PM: Cavs haven't won since 1981, and Detroit cannot score (26th in NBA). Sadly, neither can Cleveland (27th in NBA)
Cleveland +3
Charlotte @ Indiana 5:oo PM: Indiana trying for 5th win in 6 games since firing head coach Jim O'Brien.
Indiana +9
New Orleans @ New Jersey 5:00 PM: Hornets on 3 game losing streak, but New Jersey is a free falling mess.
New Orleans +12
Orlando @ Philadelphia 5:00 PM: The two games played earlier in the year were split, with an average scoring difference of only 0.5 points.
Orlando +2
Milwaukee @ Washington 5:00 PM: The Bucks will likely limp to the playoffs just above .500, while the Wizards are lottery bound.
Milwaukee +4
San Antonio @ Toronto 7:00 PM: Spurs are 3rd in NBA in FG%. Raptors are last in NBA in opponents' FG%.
San Antonio +18
LA Clippers @ New York 7:30 PM: Interesting that both teams are in the top ten of NBA for technical fouls this season.
New York +5
Chicago @ Utah 7:00 PM: Boozer returns to Utah for the first time, which distracts from Bulls' great record. Utah in trouble tonight.
Chicago +6
Dallas @ Sacramento 8:00 PM: Dallas going for 10th straight win; had 12 straight earlier in year.
Dallas +11
Denver @ Golden State 8:30 PM: Nuggets last four games: Win, Loss, Win, Loss. Warriors last four: 3-1
