Friday, October 31

**PREFERRED
*Toronto over Golden State by 17
The Warriors lack of a floor leader and consistent low-post scorer is going to hurt
them.na by 1
Don’t be surprised if the Bucks begin slow as the team hasn’t adjusted yet to their new
point guard situation.na by 6
The Knicks probably aren’t ready to fully grasp new coach Mike D’Antoni’s run-andgun
style, but the Bucks played last night and entered the season failing to cover in
nine of their past 12 away contests.na over Washington by 13
Look for an intense effort from the Bucks, idle since Wednesday and playing only their
second home game.na 105-92.


*Utah over Portland by 8
The Jazz entered the season covering 71 percent of the time during their past 57 home
games. UTAH 103-95.


*Sacramento over Memphis by 6
The Kings have defeated the Grizzlies 19 consecutive times at Arco Arena, although
the last one was by one point in overtime. SACRAMENTO 106-100.


*Golden State over Denver by 2
Idle since Saturday and with Carmelo Anthony back from suspension, the Nuggets
should be able to keep up with the racehorse Warriors. GOLDEN STATE 114-112.


*Los Angeles Lakers over Los Angeles Clippers by 10
The teams already met on opening night a week ago. The schedule hasn’t been kind
to the Clippers so far. They are off back-to-back games versus Utah and have Houston
and Dallas on deck. LA LAKERS 105-95.
