The Picksix: Jazzin' it up

LA Lakers over ORLANDO (-2.5) -- Kobe has 17 points over his last two games combined. Perhaps he'll double that tonight.

TORONTO (-10.5) over LA Clippers -- The Raps are a lot better than the Clips.

New Jersey over CHARLOTTE (-2.5) -- The 'Cats are back to their losing ways. Perhaps the Nets will realize that they're actually supposed to be in the thick of the playoff race at some point soon.

Cleveland over ATLANTA (-1.5) -- Le. Bron.

San Antonio (-6.5) over NEW YORK -- How 'bout the Knicks losing at home to the Clips and Pacers this week? The Spurs look like they are getting it back together with three straight wins.

Portland over DETROIT (-9.5) -- A five-point win over the Heat? Yikes.

Boston (-4.5) over MINNESOTA -- Most of the fans at this game will be their for the video tribute to the Celtics' injured power forward rather than to watch the home team. And we wouldn't bet against Rajon right now.

DALLAS (-14.5) over Memphis -- Gasol hangover, anyone?

Seattle over PHOENIX (-13.5) -- Both teams love to push the tempo. Lots of points on both ends, smaller margin of victory. Shaq will need time to acclimate, too.

Utah (-2.5) over SACRAMENTO -- 16 of 18. Can't pass up the Jazz right now.

Washington over DENVER (-11.5) -- Simply too many points for an erratic-as-of-late Denver team.

Last night: 1-2
Season: 377-348
