PICK: PISTONS vs CELTICS

Lets face it the Pistions are just awful. The addition of Allen Iverson hasn't help - the new coaching the staff hasn't been effective and will probably be replaced. The Celtics should romp easily over the Pistons.

PICKS: NBA Celtics vs Suns and Heat vs. Magic

For the Celtics vs. Suns - I like the Celtics again. I think they are playing strong basketball. Although the Suns are on the run again, I think the Celtics D might be too much for them.

For the Heat vs. Orlando - Both teams did not play well on Wednesday. The Magic weren't scoring and the Heat weren't rebounding. Somehow I expect the Heat to win in a squeaker.

PICK: Spurs vs Celtics

I lost that Mavs at Celtics AND Spurs at Lakers game a few weeks back by picking the two Dallas teams on the road. Lesson learned the hard way. The Celtics will be coming off a huge game versus the Lakers and are playing excellent basketball again (now that the Stephan Marbey poison coming to Boston talk has stopped). PoodlePick Pick: CELTICS - big.
