NBA 9/12 - 3 Games
 
Boston @ Portland
San Antonio @ Houston
Seattle @ Dallas

My thoughts:

TRAILBLAZERS:
Boston aren't great travellers
Both lost last two matches
Tough call but i'd go with home side Portland only due to Boston's sub par road record of 2 from 8

SPURS:
Coming off a loss to Seattle, Spurs will be fired up to not encounter a second loss in a row
Spurs have so many options of scoring with Ginobli, Duncan, Parker etc all in great form

SEATTLE:
In top form - coming off a superb win over championship favourites the Spurs
Seattle have a great record on the road of 7-3 and should make that 8-3 after tomorrows game

Feel free to comment...

Theres some value in the Dallas vs Seattle match
Sportstab have Seattle at $3.35
It blows my minds how they can keep giving great value for Seattle even though they continue to beat big names

Not much doing tomorrow.

Portland have been pretty ordinary, but so have Boston - so I say the Blazers only because they are at home.

I think it is going to be hard for the Spurs and Sonics to back up after todays tough game. I'm looking at taking the Rockets with the points into the Mavs straight up, but will do a bit more analysis before I commit to anything.

Cannot believe it, once again the bookies have underrated Seattle and once again us punters benefit with a 5 pt Seattle win at a healthy $3.20 (This is a team that is 17-3!)

Nashy what do you think will happen when the Sonics play the Suns?? All I know is that we will see the highest total set all year!!

Great observation, nashy! I wish I had followed you.. instead I took the Spurs at short odds. :(

Mate I would feel robbed if I was you K-man. Tracy McGrady, who hasn't been able to hit the side of a barn recently scored 13 points in the last 36 secs of the game to win it for the Rockets. I just saw the highlights on sportscentre and it was amazing, every shot he hit was a circus shot!

Very tough question mate! Doesn't look like any team can beat Seattle at home, boasting a 9-0 record however with Suns scoring capacity anything can happen. I know i won't be betting on that game if current form continues.
