NBA Hoop PLays

Atlanta @ LA Clippers

Since the coaching change the Clippers want to run. The players have spoken and what they are really saying is they don’t want to play defense. Clipper totals have gone over the total over their past three games as the team looks for a running style. The team is not in shape to run and have been torched on the defensive end.the Clippers will get a run for their money against the Hawks who have won six of their last ten games coming into LA.

Unlike the Atlanta Hawks, the Los Angeles Clippers have really struggled over the last ten games going 1-9 with their only win coming against the Chicago Bulls on February 2nd.

The young Hawks will get easy buckets against a Clippers team that has regressed badly.Was thinking on the total but like the side much more....

Atlanta-6

Sacramento @ Golden St

Sacramento Kings have shown life with a point-spread cover last night against Boston and back-to-back wins at Detroit and New York heading into the All Star break. Both teams are on the back end of a back to back but the Warriors had to fly home from LA the night before. Golden St is 1-10 straight up in their past 11 games and are laying 4 ½ points to a Sacramento team that is playing with pride.

Sacramento+4.5

Houston @ Milwaukee

Both teams need a wakeup call if they have a prayer to make the post season. Rookie Brandon Jennings has been the biggest revelation as leads the team with 16.9 points and 6.2 assists but the Rockets have a solid defense and have been a better team without T-Mac and Yao.

Houston+5.5

Miami @ New Jersey

After winning the All Star game MVP award Dwayne Wade will probably have an extra spring in his step for a few weeks and if they can string together a few wins who knows what can happen.The Miami Heat are playing really well right now
With their big win over the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday night 105-78, Dwyane Wade and the Miami Heat were able to get back to .500 and back on track to competing with their division rivals in the Atlanta Hawks and the Orlando Magic.

Miami-7
