This is actually a huge game between two teams likely to meet in the first round of the playoffs.
As this is being written Tampa is looking to even their series against Toronto and leading 6-2.
The first 10 games have gone about as well as expected for the Cubs. Yes Theo Epstein is guiding the ship but he can’t overhaul this wreck in just one offseason.
The New York Knicks are still battling for the final playoffs spots in the East. They are currently in seventh but there are more than enough games left to get caught on the outside looking in if they stumble down the stretch.
The Mets are definitely off to a better than expected start. They took the opener of now their second series against Atlanta last night making them 4-0 vs the Braves this year (they are just 3-3 against everybody else).
The San Antonio Spurs are enjoying a sneaky good season.
The Washington Wizards are on a rare two game winning streak heading into New York Friday night.
No one is sure who will win the National League East but everyone is pretty sure the New York Mets will finish in last place.
The National League East should be very interesting this year. Miami did a lot in the offseason to improve and Philadelphia has come back to the pack due to injury.
The Golden State Warriors are coming off an interesting last couple of games. They have played Denver twice, winning by 15 at home and them losing by a whopping 39 points on the road.
The Angels are looking to build on their series opening win against Minnesota.
The Boston Celtics are looking to finish strong. They have won their last two games by 14 and 24 points and 7 of their last 9.
As this is being written the Milwaukee Brewers are losing the rubber match in their three game series against St. Louis, not exactly the start they had in mind with Ryan Braun popping off about how this team is better without Prince Fielder.
If moving in the fences was supposed to spark offense at Citi Field the visiting Atlanta Braves certainly didn’t get the memo.
The Detroit Pistons have won two in a row and as this is being written they are beating up on Washington so a third is likely.
The Memphis Grizzlies are having a tough mini road trip facing both teams from last year’s NBA Finals back to back.
