Best:
Lakers @ Clippers: The Clippers had the advantage the last time these two California teams played each other. While the Lakers still might not be as good as the Clippers, the Clips have fallen badly enough to make it a game again. They lead the NBA in rebounding, something that the Lakers will have to somehow overtake them in to win this game. Predicted Score: LA Clippers win 105-102
Runner-up:
Spurs @ Suns: The Suns have faced a plethora of tough teams in the last week and now face the best in the West. If Tony Parker really is the all-star that his stats say he is, then he’ll show it against Steve Nash. He should defend Nash better than he did in the playoffs last year. Predicted Score: San Antonio wins 101-99
Blowout:
Jazz @ Pistons: This game could go could either the way of a squeaker or a blowout. The Jazz play very similarly to Detroit and have been a better road team than at home. When these two met up last year the score finished in the 60’s. Detroit may have vastly improved their scoring, but Utah really hasn’t. With Detroit’s loss total still in single digits, you have to give them the benefit of the doubt. Predicted Score: Detroit wins 99-83
