NBA Pick
Phoenix Suns at NO Hornets (-5)
The Suns are out of the playoff hunt and could be without their star PG Steve Nash. IF there is no Nash tonight then there will be no hope. Nash has just 12 points in his last two games and could easily sit out tonight with a sore hamstring. The Suns are 3-7 over their last ten games and are only 17-22 on the road this season.
The Hornets have won two straight and are playing for their playoff lives during this final week of the season. The Hornets are excellent at home going 27-12 so far this season. They need this game to fend off Memphis for the #7 seed in the West. Chris Paul should have his way with Suns backup PG Brooks, who plays terrible defense and is a shoot first point guard. Go with the Hornets!!
MLB Pick
Colorado Rockies (-130) at Pittsburgh Pirates
The Rockies (4-1) have won four straight games, including last night's 7-1 victory in Pittsburgh. The Rockies will send #2 started Jorge De La Rosa to the mound tonight against Pittsburgh's Ross Ohlendorf (6.0 ERA). De La Rosa went 5.3 scoreless innings in beating Arizona last Saturday. Ohlendorf is a career journeyman that loses more games every season. The Pirates (4-3) simply don't have the talent that the Rockies do this season. Go with the Rockies!!
