Sonics - 6
Pistons -2 1/2
Hawks pk
Sonics have huge revenge factor in this game, but toss that out, clippers have barely been on the road this year and have 1 road win all year. Sonics are perfect against the spread when they face a team that has no rest when they have rest themselves. Sonics are 11-2 since nov.10th when Mason plays and they are not on a back to back. Baker will play, odom is out, back to back to much to overcome for the clippers.
Pistons had some good practices since being back, there 8-2 at home this year and sound very focused from there comments. They already beat this nj team by 14 at home earlier this year. There in a must win if there is such a thing in december and there facing a team that is on a back to back and blew a 25 pt 3rd quarter lead last night in cleveland and barely hung on for a 2 pt win.
Atlanta does have some problems, but the heat have flat quit. And atlanta is on a back to back but theyve been pretty good at home and they do something the heat cant do....score. If the hawks hit 90 the heat have no chance. Atlanta has scored 100 in 9 of 12 home games, and 88 or more in all of them. I will not bet this one till game time waiting to see if toni kukoc is gonna play or not hes a game time decsion (may still bet it but will be in for sure if he plays). Miami is the only nba team to not score 100 all year.
Also, a heavy lean to washington +7 1/2 have not decided fully on this game as of yet.
35-18 ytd
