Big night in the NBA, even though there are only two games.
First up we get the defending Champion Boston Celtics taking on the Allen Iverson led Detroit Pistons. Detroit already has two huge wins this week over the Cavs, ending their 8 game winning streak, and the Lakers, handing them their first loss. The Celtics are 10-2, including an 88-76 win over the Pistons in Iverson's first home game with Detroit. I am going with the Pistons tonight with a score of 95-91.
In the second game of TNT's double header, we get Kobe vs. Shaq. The Lakers are sitting at 8-1 and in first place in the Western Conference while the Suns are 8-4 and in 2nd place out West. This will be the first meeting between the two teams since Shaq's freestyle caused a stir over the summer and the first meeting since Shaq publicly said that it was Phil Jackson who caused the problems between him and Kobe. The Lakers have lost 10 of their last 15 trips to the desert but this one will be different as the Lakers will take this one 105-101.
With TNT having both games tonight so that means we get Ernie, Kenny, and Charles afterwards. So even if the games are duds, which they won't be, we will be very entertained with Inside the NBA.
Detroit at Boston at 8pm on TNT
Los Angeles at Phoenix at 10:30om on TNT
Here is the place to Q it up while watching the games or you can head on over to the game pages.
