dizzil->PHX is coming off a day of rest and MIL played last night so phx should be more fresh.. raja bell should have redd on the lockdown for the most part and nash will have his way with the weak mil def... I see phx running away with this one

jbooms8->Some guy called me on my phone and told me this was his "pick" of the night and that I should thrown $1,000 on it. I didn't throw that much but hey, I haven't watched a game of basketball this season. Maybe this will entice me to watch one!

I will help all and keep things simple as I believe in the acronym K.I.S.S. meaning (keep-it-simple-stupid). No such thing as a bad question, though I do enjoy giving stupid answers to stupid questions.
