The Picksix: Putridity at the forefront in Grizz-Heat match-up

New Jersey over TORONTO (-9.5) -- The Raps shellacked Milwaukee this week. Great. Label us unsold.

Cleveland (-2.5) over CHICAGO -- Loss to Miami, 32-point defeat in Orlando the next night. We'll take a pass on the Bulls, too.

Minnesota over ORLANDO (-12.5) -- A lot of points are involved here for a Magic team without a real reason to care. And they are no longer coming off a loss to the Knicks, which was the case earlier in the week.

Indiana over PHILADELPHIA (-5.5) -- Gotta go with the team still clinging to playoff hope.

BOSTON (-15.5) over Milwaukee -- The Celts tend to get peeved after losses. The Bucks tend to lose by lots of points.

Atlanta (-4.5) over NEW YORK -- Sooner or later, the Hawks need to end the race for eighth in the East. Right? Right?

Memphis (-4.5) over MIAMI -- Who knows?

Washington over DETROIT (-4.5) -- The Pistons' interest in this game remains yet to be determined. The Wiz are playing very solid ball as of late to boot.

Phoenix over HOUSTON (-2.5) -- Hard not to show the Suns some lovin' after a convincing performance in the San Antone on Wednesday.

Seattle over SAN ANTONIO (-18.5) -- As the kids say, "Mad high pointage." Too many for us, in fact.

SACRAMENTO (-1.5) over Portland -- The Blazers have lost five of six. The Kings play well at home. Fran Garcia has been off the charts of late.

New Orleans over LA LAKERS (-3.5) -- Two excellent teams compete for the top spot out West. We like the points.

Last night: 1-2
Season: 608-567
