I am by no means a movie critic, but I love movies and enjoy betting on them come awards time. It takes a special skill to wager on films and especially to be successful at it. Also take note that what looks good today might not look so good a month from now.

Keep your ear to the ground and listen to the chatter. We have a month to prepare so let’s start now. Bet on the Academy Awards at Bodog.com and receive instant cash bonuses!

On Tuesday, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced this year’s nominations and as every year there are some surprises. Perhaps the biggest shocker is the snubbing of “Dream Girls” from the best picture category, especially after the Broadway film version of the same name had picked up eight other nominations. Equally as surprising is the inclusion of “Little Miss Sunshine” into the best picture category. Don’t get me wrong, Sunshine was a nice little comedy but I think it falls short of best picture quality. 

This will be the 2nd of 4 meetings this season with Memphis, and the first of two meetings in Salt Lake City. The Jazz won in Memphis, 100-97, on Dec. 23 in their first win at FedEx Forum. The Grizzlies swept the Jazz in 2003-04 and took three of four contests last year.

In the last game between the teams in December, Mehmet Okur hit a game-winning 3-pointer with 36.7 seconds left to give the Jazz their first lead of the fourth quarter. After two Okur free throws gave the Jazz a 3-point lead, Damon Stoudamire hit a potentially game-tying 3-pointer to tie, but it was ruled after the buzzer. The Jazz trailed by as much as 13, and never led by more than 4. The game featured 13 ties and 18 lead changes The Grizzlies hit 10-26 3-pointers, to just 3-13 for the Jazz but Utah held a 41 to 28 rebounding edge and outscored Memphis in the paint 40 to 26. Carlos Boozer led five Jazzmen in double figures with 24 points and 11 rebounds, while Okur finished with 20 and nine. Deron Williams had 17 with nine assists. Four Grizzlies scored in double figures, led by 28 (6-13 3FG) from Mike Miller and 14 from Dahntay Jones.
