Both of these teams have had drastic turns. The Nuggets started off very hot while the Thunder slow and now the Thunder actually have a better record now.

I will take the Badgers here in this game strictly because of the experience. Wisky returns a lot of players from last year including their standout in Happ. I just think Xavier is getting a lot of respect because of previous years, but losing coach Mack to Louisville and also some very very good players in Bluiett and Macura and Kanter. I think Xavier struggles a lot this season or at least more than what most are saying.

Utah has had two days off here and with this being the first game on the road trip I think the effort will be there

I was on Washington in their first game and yes they had a stretch of 5 minutes where they struggled before half but after that I was impressed.

The Nuggets have only played 4 games this season on the road with the Lakers being the only team that is worth anything and they lost that game. I think the Grizzlies win out right here

This is a weird one as I thought the clear favorite should be Portland here. This team doesn't get any respect in the Western Conference even though they have two of the best shooters in the game. They also have the most underrated home court in all of basketball.

I'm gonna fade this Notre Dame here on opening night. They lost so much from last season in Colson and Farell plus Geben. Those guys were a huge chunk of their scoring. They do have Gibbs back but I do believe they struggle from the outside this year. UIC is my pick to win the Horizon league this season. They return several pieces from a team that won 20 games last season. They will be lead by Ottey who averaged 14 ppg last season. Their returning PG lead the league in assists. They have the sharp shooter in Boahen who was sixth man of the year. I see UIC really putting up a big fight here against a Notre Dame team who is very down

Simply to short of price to pass up here with the Thunder. These two have already met and the Thunder were without Westbrook and they flat out stunk it up shooting 35% for that game. While they do have other injuries the fact that Russell is back is big for me here. I'm not buying the Clippers start to the season with their 4-2 record. They have all their wins practically because their opponents have all had big injuries. I do expect this line to go up throughout the day so grab it now

Philly has proven nothing so far this season especially on the road where they haven't covered a game yet in 3 tries. This team now has a target on their back and they won't be taken lightly anymore and I think that reason is key. I think Toronto take it to them tonight

Magic just won outright as a double digit dog @ Boston and now return home after a couple days off in another dog role. I think they win again tonight
