Well not really, but when this was the NBA's slogan, seemed like the players were a little better on the offensive end. Not so much defensively. 7-2-1 now in the playoffs... thanks a lot Golden State for showing up so ready to play.
Wizards +6 (-120) for 8* - Nene was the man on Sunday night and just a gut feeling he comes to play in game #2. Wizards have a nice advantage in the backcourt and feel the Bulls are not playing well. Maybe Chicago flips a switch and crushes tonight, but I'm thinking this will be a close game where the points could and probably will matter. Don't see either team winning by more than about 5 points.
Hawks +8 (-120) for 8* - Are the Hawks going to pull a Golden State and just be happy to win? This is the question going into game #2 after they dominated the 2nd half vs. the Pacers in game #1. Indiana has exactly one nice win in the past month over a Thunder team playing for nothing. I firmly believe the Hawks will be confident after rolling Indiana twice at their place in the past couple weeks and they have a good shot to take a commanding 2-0 series lead and put the champagne on ice!
Still debating Craptors vs. Nets... leaning Toronto, but will make a play later this afternoon.
