nba friday and write-up

milwaukee bucks +10

i think it is way too many points this time. cleveland went into milwaukee and defeated them 101-86 earlier this month with the help of a 29-0 run in the first half. the cavs also got a rare early christmas present from delonte west. somehow in the right frame of mind, he was able to score 21 pts. in the contest and forced the bucks to play catch up the whole second half. west was a key part of the cavs rotation last year and has absolutely been a non-factor so far this year. i think that mike brown has zero coaching ability with this team...depends way too heavily on LBJ. i know it is the NBA, but the cavs could be so much more dangerous if they ran something that resembles an offense. LBJ bails the cavs out game after game after game so far. bucks get it done tonight after coming off a tough loss to the lakers earlier in the week!

utah +6.5

the jazz come into atlanta where the hawks are riding a 5 game win streak beating opponents by 5, 35, 22, 23, and 13. the jazz are a little stiffer competition than the grizz, nets, raptors and bulls! i look for atlanta to be tested tonight by a quality western conference team. can the hawks continue to beat their opponents by big numbers?

wizards +2.5

are the wiz really that bad?? they have the personnel to win and i believe they have the desire...talk about a bad beat!
they have played 8 games in december having lost their last 6. these games were decided by 4, 2, 2, 4, 2, 1, 2, 3. some pretty unbelievably close games where they have come up oh so short.
they get it done tonight against the armpit of the west. the warriors suck and will show nothing against a hungry (starving) wizards team tonight.
