NBA 2010.02.22 first 3 picks:
Milwaukee Bucks @ New York Knicks
Sooner this month, Bucks went to New York. The result was favorable to Bucks by 12 points, but at this point, we have a really different situation.
The Knicks are the big winners of the trade season. They were able to ensure a low cap salary for next season, that was their main concern, but they were also able to improve their roster. They've got an all star player with T-Mac, that already won the fans, and Eddie House, that we have to be fair and say that will be much better for the team than Nate. Nate was the kind of player that hadn't good relations in New York, and worst, the kind of player that force all the players to play for him when he is playing.
With House, they gain a good shooter and a reliable guard, something that Antoni appreciate. And with Tracy McGrady, the team gain a big scorer. In their last game they fail to win to Thunders in OT, but the win was close, and everyone in NY believes that they will win today. Their confidence is high.
Milwaukee is still achieving good results and only once in a while they play a bad game, but it's notorious the lack of performance that their leader guard is having right now. Bogut, their other top player, already showed this season that we can't win the battle against Lee.
Pick: New York Knicks PK -110 (1.91) 5Dimes
Indiana Pacers @ Dallas Mavericks
The Mavs are another team that had a great profit this trade season. Trading Howard for Haywood should be fair enough, but they were able to ensure even a best player, Butler. The talent of this team have raised much more than anyone should expect before the trade. The results were immediate, as the team were suffering several defeats in a row, and after the trade and the break, they got 3 wins in 3 games.
They were able to get turnbacks, with big second parts. This show that this team can really work, but with 2 new players in the initial five, it's logical that they struggle for several minutes until they get their "mechanism" ok. But with the team, they will need less minutes per game to show their talent.
Haywood give them the strength they need in the paint, with Marion and Dirk which are great scorers as well. Behind, they got the old Kidd, a smart player that can be more important than points, and Butler, a massive scorer as well.
Indiana have an all star player, Granger, that can play many points in every game, as they play a fast game that is favorable for him. However, their kind of game give them big problems on road game, where they are 7-21. They have no defense, and when they face teams that can defend them and score easily, they usually lost by more than 10 points.
Hibbert is to lazy to hold on Haywood, and Troy will have big problems facing all stars like Dirk. Their guards will have big problems in distributing the game, as they will have Jason Kidd in front of them. In November, they lost at home by 21 points against Mavs, but this time, the team will face a better Mavs and in Dallas, which give them more edge.
