First, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone!!
Of all the games on board today, I have had my eyes on these two in particular. I wanted to share my insight on these game...please provide any input you have and best of luck with your selections.
Spurs/Hornets - My pick is the SUNS.
Spurs are 6-4 in their last 10 road games, with 4 of the 6 victories coming against opponents with a combined record of 28-84. The Suns are 7-3 in their last 10 home games, with the 3 losses coming against teams with a combined record of 52-31. 5 of the 7 wins in their last 10 home games came against Orlando, Detroit, Denver, Utah, and Portland, all of which are at least comparable or better teams than the Spurs (in my opinion). The Spurs are also missing Oberto while the Suns have no injuries to report. With all these considered, I'm siding with the home team laying 2 points in this bitter rivalry.
Celtics/Lakers - My pick is UNDER.
Everyone is aware of the Celtics win streak. The biggest factor for the streak has been a dominant defense. The Lakers have been dominant on their home court as well and play much better defense at home. This is a bitter rivalry and its hard to predict which team will come out more motivated. Despite the scoring prowess of both teams, a stellar win record such as the one they possess would not occur without the ability to play solid defense. I'll take my chances with the UNDER 201.5
