NBA News: Wizards Rashard Lewis done for the season

NBA News: Wizards Rashard Lewis done for the season  - Rashard Lewis has missed Washington's last five games due to a sore right knee.

And according to Michael Lee of the Washington Post, "Lewis will get another opinion on his sore right knee later this week in New York."

If that's the case, it would appear unlikely Lewis will return to the lineup on Friday against the Raptors or Sunday against the Nets.

It's been previously reported that Lewis may need surgery on the knee. So if the second opinion from another doctor suggests surgery, it's possible Lewis would opt for that -- which could end his 2010-11 campaign.

More NBA News - The Jazz signed big man Marcus Cousin to a 10-day contract earlier this month.

With news that Mehmet Okur is out for the season now, Smith is also reporting that it "weighs in Cousin's favor." As such, Cousin seems to stand a decent chance of getting another contract from Utah.

NBA Basketball: Golden State vs Dallas

Golden State (33-40 ATS) vs Dallas (31-39-4) will host two Western Conference teams in desperate need of a win when they play tonight at 9:30 ET. The Warriors are currently a half game back of the hungry and determined Denver Nuggets while Dallas is only one game ahead of Golden State. So in essence if Dallas loses, they will be a half game out of the playoffs. Sportsbetting.com has Dallas a -5 point NBA betting favorite in Golden State vs Dallas.

Dallas has surprisingly struggled since making the incredible effort and financial decision to get the NBA Basketball: Golden State vs DallasJason Kidd trade done after quite a few road blocks. The Mavericks need better consistency down low from Eric Dampier and young gun Brandon Bass as they have been weak on the boards at time. The good news in the mean time is that Dirk Nowitzki has been listed as day to day following his horrific injury. Sportsbetting.com has the TOTAL at 215 points for Golden State vs Dallas.

For those of you that read my previews, you know how I feel about Golden State. They are a fun team to watch and can light the scoreboard up from the front court with Baron Davis, Monta Ellis and Stephen Jackson put up 20 or more points per game respectively. Unfortunately for the Warriors, they will never go far without playing defense or a solid big man. Both teams need a victory here as the loser will be a half game out of the playoffs.



NBA Picks: Los Angeles Lakers at Boston Celtics

The Boston Celtics will attempt to close out the Los Angeles Lakers in Game Six of the NBA Finals on Tuesday.  It would be the first NBA title for the Celtics since 1986.  It may not be easy considering the Celtics are banged up and tired.  They blew a chance to close out the series on Sunday, losing 103-98 in Los Angeles. Even though they lost Game Five, the Celtics like their chances at home in Game Six. "We're one up, with two games to go at home," said Boston’s Paul Pierce, “It still feels like we have the advantage, and I do feel like we're the better team."

Bodog reports that early NBA betting has the public taking Celtics at Home.

History is very much on Boston’s side. No team in NBA history has ever overcome a 3-1 deficit to win the title. Boston head coach Doc Rivers knows it will not be easy though. "It's a terrible turnaround," he said. "It's as tough as you can have. I think going West to East is tougher. Sleep patterns are messed up. It's a tough one. There's no way around it. But both teams have the same issue, so it could come down to a game of mental toughness, who fights the fatigue mentally better than the other group."  Boston is expected to be without center Kendrick Perkins while guard Ray Allen left following Sunday’s game to be with one of his three children who had a "health issue." The Celtics are 12-1 at home in the postseason though and are favored on Tuesday night.
