ATS Picks: Day 14

In trade news, the Clippers decided they wanted KG, then they didn't, and then they did again.  Who knows.  In other Los Angeles news, Pau Gasol is fed up with D'Antoni and Dwight Howard and may request to be moved at the end of the year.  This officially makes Gasol and Howard they biggest diva combo in the league.  Not to mention they have a rapist on the team, too (I kid, I kid).  But seriously.  Gasol has no reason to be saying all of this in the middle of the season and the team's most important road trip of the year.  Scrub.

Last night was a fruitful 5-3 night, so that makes me 49-47-1 (.510) for the year (7-4-1 for locks).  I really botched the Heat game.  Charlotte always seems to hang with them.

Atlanta (+5.5) vs Indiana (-5.5):  Random thought:  Hibbert's max contract may be the worst in the league.  He has been mediocre at best this year. 

LAL (+4.5) vs Brooklyn (-4.5):  The Lakers' road trip continues, and Brooklyn is probably the first quality team they will have to face this trip.  This game is a must win, so I like LA here.

Golden State (+2.5) vs Houston (-2.5):  Now that Golden State is finally healthy, they may be my favorite team in the league to watch.  Pair them with a Houston Rockets team that is averaging 105.1 a game, and this should be an offensive clinic.

Phoenix (+8.5) vs Memphis (-8.5):  Memphis has been pretty pathetic since it got rid of Rudy Gay to avoid the luxury tax.  I can't remember where I saw it, but Andrew Bogut was quoted somewhere basically saying that it is scary that owners would put money ahead of winning.  It's not good for the league.  Spit the truth, Andrew Bogut.

Milwaukee (+7) vs Denver (-7): The "always-pick-Denver-at-home" rule goes into effect here.  And Danilo Gallinari gets the picture of the day, just because I love his name.  Big shout to Danilo Gallinari.

Lock of the night goes to Indiana (-5.5).  I picked a lot of road dogs tonight.  We'll see what happens.
