Moving Today's Market
All three 0-2 playoff teams managed to get on the board yesterday, with Cleveland, Toronto and the Houston Rockets winning critical games. Perhaps most surprising was the Rockets' upset of the Jazz in Utah.
Tonight three other NBA playoff series resume.
The Philadelphia 76ers host its first home playoff game of 2008 against the Pistons. As expected the Pistons made amends on Wednesday in Detroit for their opening game disappearing act, dominating the underdog 76ers from start to finish. The Pistons are five-point favorites tonight in the City of Brotherly Love.
Dirty Dirk and the Dallas Mavs taste some home cooking for the first time in the 2008 playoffs, hoping to put a win on the boards against Chris Paul, David West and company. The Mavs are favored by six.
The Phoenix Suns will also be getting its first taste of authentic southwestern playoff cuisine in the Valley of the Sun vs. San Antonio. The Spurs lead the series 2-0. The Suns are 6.5/7 point home favorites.
