GameDay 2

Well GameDay 1 didn't go as smoothly as planned with the Rockets blowing a 12 point lead with just over a minute left. Anyways the Warriors pulled through in the first quarter, barely, but just as in the playoffs the Jazz revealed their flaws and exploited them. So my record this year is now (1-1). Onto gameday 2.

GameDay 2
Pick 1

Game: Dallas @ Cleveland

Pick: Dallas -4.5

Reason: Dallas was the best team in the league last year and after an unexpected first round exit to GSW, they will want to start the season on the right foot. Cleveland meanwhile continues to puzzle just about everybody on how the hell they made it all the way to the Finals. Dallas is by far a superior team and will show that on Wednesday night against a Cleveland team that looked very poor in the preseason.

Pick 2

Game: San Antonio @ Memphis

Pick: Memphis +7.5

Reason: San Antonio just had their championship ceremony and their official match of the season. So just 24 hours later they will enter their first back to back games, which is always difficult at the beginning of the season. Memphis on the hand have been resting since...well since 20 games into last year, and will be eager to impress in their season opener at home. They will definitely not get trashed, and might even make it a tight game down the stretch.

Pick 3

Game: Washington @ Indiana

Pick: Washington +1.5

Reason: The simple reason is that Washington is a much better team than Indiana. However, there is also the fact that Gilbert Arenas no doubt wants to make a splashy entrance back into the league, and the original big three will be too much for the mediocre Pacers to handle.
