Spurs
Bucks
Nets

Picking the Nets is pretty bold, but I just think they really get with it tonight. Especially after that Sacramento loss, and a day or two to think about things. Kidd coming back to Oakland should only add to his approach to this game. I also like how their big men Boone and Williams favor to play against the smaller Warriors, as they played well in the NJ meeting. Won't be surprised if the Warriors win, of course.

Must be true, if it's a rumor you read on Hoopshype.

The Warriors lost to the frickin Timberwolves in their last game. Hopefully that will light a bigger fire in them than how the Nets are reacting about the Kings loss.

And yeah, Josh Boone will probably have a good night against us. There's always that random guy on each team that become's the "Warrior Killer" whenever they face Golden State. And Sean Williams will thrive in an up and down tempo.

Spurs vs. Heat -
The Heat are a disgrace to the game of basketball, for their sake I hope they end up beating the Celtic's 18 game losing streak of last year. Not only will doing so significantly improve the 1st overall pick, but it will also give people a legitimate reason for putting D-Wade in the history books and dare I say Basketball Hall of Fame...

Pacers vs. Bucks -
Don't watch this crappy game. At 8:00 p.m. the streaking Colorado 14'ers (13-9, 4 straight wins) are taking on the division leading Austin Toros (15-6).

Nets vs. Warriors -
Speaking of the 14'ers my statement still stands, if the Nets lose another game this month by 20 (or more) points I'm going to ask a mod to change my name to Colorado14er'sForce.

The Heat on again??? No offense, but I'd seriously rather watch the Pacers and Bucks game....

The second one should be entertaining, Baron v. Kidd has always been fun especially in Oracle. Carter IMO has always been fun to watch as well haha, though other people might hate him.
