Great games tonight.

Since I rarely pick the correct outcome, I'll go with:

Spurs-Bulls
Celtics-Mavericks
Lakers-Jazz

I think the Spurs game is going to be close though. But Chicago will just drop the ball like they've done in recent games (New Orleans).

Preview:
The Eastern Conference is supposedly inferior to its counterpart, but its teams have held the perennial West powerhouse San Antonio Spurs in check over the past week.In danger of losing five straight for the first time in 11 years, the Spurs look to end their struggles against teams from the East when they conclude their season series with the Chicago Bulls on Thursday night.San Antonio (44-23) has lost four straight for the first time since Nov. 28-Dec. 3, 2003. A loss to the Bulls (27-40) would give the Spurs their longest skid since dropping their last six games in 1996-97, a 20-62 season that helped put them in position to draft Tim Duncan with the No. 1 overall pick.

Yes, that's what I think is most probable. That's what most of my picks for games are.

If the Spurs don't win, then I'll be surprised.
