NBA Playoffs Round 1 Previews for 4/29

Here you can find the odds and previews for all the NBA games of the day:

Utah Jazz vs. San Antonio Spurs 1:00 PM ET Preview

Went 3-1 yesterday with the first round games.  Let’s see how we can do today.  San Antonio is without a doubt the better team but it will be interesting to see how Utah tries to slow them down.  I don’t like such a big point spread for game 1.  Take the Jazz +11 to cover.

Denver Nuggets vs. LA Lakers 3:30 PM ET Preview

While this is not the best team LA has ever had in the playoffs, they are going to be tough for the Nuggets to knock off.  Even without Metta World Peace in the lineup the Lakers should be able to handle Denver.  They won’t sweep but will win the series.  Lakers are good in Sunday games.  Take LA -4 ½ to win game 1.

Boston Celtics vs. Atlanta Hawks 7:00 PM ET Preview

Boston would do well to win this series quickly so that they can rest the legs a bit.  Atlanta is a very erratic team though so I don’t see them going out without winning a game or 2.  And if they play their game they could take the series.  However, I think Boston will come out strong and surprise them in the 1^st game.  Boston +1 ½ is the play here.

LA Clippers vs. Memphis Grizzlies 9:30 PM ET Preview

This is going to be one of the best series of the 1^st round.  It would be a little shocking to see the Clippers out in the 1^st round, but Memphis matches up well enough to make that a possibility.  This game is for feeling each other out.  Take the Clippers +5 ½ to cover in the  1^st game.
