Sundays on ABC

   I am glad that someone started showing basketball games on the regular. ABC has not let down with their basketball games since they started showing them. Today wasn't that bad for me granted the day isn't finished yet but so far I only have one game wrong and that is the Hawks game. A game they had a 20 point lead almost at half before the Bobcats cut it to 13 before half. The Mav's are 8 20 seconds away from starting another win streak. I knew that it would just take time for Peja to get back in his groove, it took maybe what a week for him to put up impressive number. So far tonight he is leading the Mav's in scoring  (tied with Dirk actually cause Dirk hit 4 freethrows with like 20 seconds left) with 22 he also added 4 boards 1 dime and 1 steal in only 26 minutes. If he can keep that up and the Mav's roll players can continue to play at the level they are then everyone better watch out. Haha I am sure people can tell the Mav's are my team, but I am just hyping them so much cause no one else does and its weak cause they obviously deserve it.

   Tomorrows matchups are the best of the week that is for sure, I am so glad ABC started to put games on. First off the Heat travel to Boston to play the Celtics, since the Cetlics are a little injured right now the Heat might have a good chance to win cause the Celtics are hurt in the big man department which is where the Heat have a question mark. That being said the Celtics are coming off a tough loss to the Lakers on their home court, so I have a feeling Boston will be looking to make a statement. That being said so will the Heat having lost to the Celtics both times the played earlier. Also when these two teams met earlier the Heat were not even close to the team they are now. All that being said I still think this one is a toss up and I am going to go out on a limb here and say that the Heat will shock everyone tomorrow and come awya with a huge road win. The Lakers are still on their road trip tomorrow they stop in Orlando to play the Magic. While both teams are back to their winning ways I think the Lakers are out to prove something to everyone. When Kobe is on a mission it is so hard to pick against him, especially when I like the talent surrounding him so much, I am taking the Lakers to continue their win streak. I think that being on the road so much has really helped them gel together maybe have a little fun something they obviously weren't doing earlier. If only the Cav's lost to the Blakers last night then tomorrows game would be huge. Notice how the first game Mo Williams comes back they win. Obviously LBJ wasn't asa much to that team as everyone thought. With Blatche's decreased out put and how bad the rest of the team is on the road I think that all that might give the Cav's the start of something no one thought they'd have...a win streak. That being said I have this feeling that teh Wizards are gunna win I don't know why. I know that with Mo back the Cav's aren't as bad as everyone thinks, anyways I guess I will stick with the home team to pull off their 2nd win in a row. The Blazers travel to play the Pistons and I know the Pistons are good at home but the Blazers are so underrated and Aldrige is STILL mad about the all star game so I'll take the Blazers. The Clippers play the Raptors and after losing to the Cav's I hope that Blake is mad enough that he can will the Raptors to a win against another really poor NBA team I think he will so I will take the road  team. The Nuggets travel to Memphis to play the Grizzlies, the Grizzlies are a great team at home and plus the Nuggets are coming off a buzzer beater win over the Mav's so I think that the Grizzlies will have an easy W. The Thunder play the Warriors on their home court, the Thunder play tonight but still I think they are a good enough team to beat the Warriors without the fresher legs. The Kings play the Suns and with Nash continuing to play at such a high level I think the Suns can pull this one off. I think the Kings are a young team and might be decent next year.

   With one round left my main my Tiger is one stroke back to hopefully pull off his first win in over a year. I know that today he had a tough round but so did everyone. I was reading something on ESPN.com trying to say that Tiger was having a bad round, then like 3 or 4 sentences later goes on to say that the leaders would have put a lot of space between them and Tiger but it was windy so THEY had a bad round. As if Tiger should be perfect with or without the wind. I know that back when Tiger first came out the wind wasn't as much of a factor as it is now but this is a new Tiger. I hope that he pulls it off tomorrow and gets as much back into the old Tiger as he can.
