Friday night NBA game predictions (Nov. 22)

Part two:

Brooklyn @ Minnesota – There is a long way to go in the season, but the Nets have hit many bumps in road.  Brook Lopez and Deron Williams are injured, and will not play.  The one thing going for Brooklyn is the Wolves are beginning to show they are a good, not great, team.  Nets win 108-102.

Cleveland @ New Orleans – Pelicans center Anthony Davis is off to a stellar start averaging 21 points, 10.8 rebounds, and 4.1 blocks per game.  Davis will be great at both ends of the court, especially with his shot-altering capabilities against Kyrie Irving.  Pelicans win 99-89.

Utah @ Dallas – The Mavericks may run the risk of crashing after their tremendous win against the Rockets on Wednesday.  However, if Dallas takes time to heat up, Utah will not be able to capitalize.  Mavs win 105-90.

Chicago @ Portland – The Bulls looked extremely frustrated in last night’s loss to the Denver Nuggets.  Tonight, the Bulls have to face LaMarcus Aldridge and the 10-2 Blazers, good luck! Trail Blazers win 110-100.

Golden State @ LA Lakers – This game is simple.  If Stephen Curry is back from his mild concussion, then the Warriors become much more competitive.  However, I don’t think Curry will be 100% if he plays, giving the Lakers a slight edge.  Lakers win 104-101.
