Red-hot Cavs to keep rollin'

TORONTO (-5.5) over Atlanta - The Hawks haven't beaten anyone of note lately. We're not too excited about them on the road.

BOSTON (-8.5) over Philadelphia - It would be great if the Celts could put together a complete 48 minutes, but as it stands, they're doing all right anyway.

CLEVELAND (-12.5) over Golden State - They whacked the Knicks by 18 (and it wasn't that close) then bopped the Thunder by 35. LeBron has played a total of 47 minutes in his last two games. He'll be ready to roll.

DETROIT (-9.5) over Milwaukee - Acks thinks the Bucks are terrible. At 7-10 and 13th in the East, he might not be too far off.

Charlotte over INDIANA (-6.5) - We're telling you, Larry Brown's team likes to lose close. Or at least is capable of it.

PHOENIX (-8.5) over Miami - Color us unimpressed by the Heat's 38-point loss in Portland.

Minnesota (-2.5) over OKLAHOMA CITY - Nice first effort by the Thunder in Scott Brooks' debut, losing 99-98 to Phoenix. Then they gave up the first 13 the next night and trailed by 40 at the end of the three quarters. We'll pass.

UTAH (-10.5) over Sacramento - The Jazz weren't having too much difficulty without Deron Williams. He's back now.

New Orleans over PORTLAND (-3.5) - Talk to Acks 'bout that one.

LA LAKERS (-10.5) over Dallas - This is the type of line you cover when you're head and shoulders above the rest of your conference as the Lakers have been thus far.

SAN ANTONIO (-10.5) over Memphis - Remember when people were ready to pronounce the Spurs' death sentence? Yeah, that was about a week and a half ago. No mas.

Last night: 1-1
Season: 112-112
