Wanted to pick the Pelicans to steal one from the Nuggets on the road. Might still do that later.

That Warriors/Grizzlies matchup on TNT was a lot more exciting a few days ago.

I get locked out of Grizzlies (and Pacers) games under "local" restrictions so I won't get to watch the Mavs tonight, but the Minnesota @ Orlando matchup looks like it could be a fun alternative. I love catching the interconference games when I get the chance.

2 trips into Boston this week. Wednesday to take in Cs vs T-wolves and Thursday for a watch party for season ticket members Cs vs Bucks. Should be a fun time.
