Quote of the Day:
“The guys who had been here love him (Atkinson), so I’m sure it’s tough for them. At the end of the day, this is a business, coaches get fired, players get cut, get traded, whatever it is.”
Nets C DeAndre Jordan, talking about Kenny Atkinson being fired as coach

Monday’s quiz
Whats the most hits a team could get in one inning without scoring a run?

Sunday’s quiz
Pittsburgh Pirates beat Baltimore 4-3 in the first night World Series game, in 1971.

Saturday’s quiz
Seattle Mariners have the longest current playoff drought; they last made the playoffs in 2002.

************************************************** **************************

Monday’s List of 13: Wrapping up a sports weekend……..

13) Brooklyn Nets fired coach Kenny Atkinson this week: why? They were 42-40 LY, are 28-34 this year, despite a ton of injuries. Everyone thinks Atkinson is a good coach, so why did he get fired? I’ve read more than once that he won’t be out of work for very long.

Nets’ two best players are Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving; they’re both hurt. Durant hasn’t played since hurting his achilles in the Finals last spring.

Have to think the players had input in this; the GM went out of his way to praise Atkinson, so it definitely wasn’t him. The GM was vague when asked if the players had input in the decision.

Maybe the highest-paid player should coach the team, instead of having an actual coach. You would hear guys clamoring for a real coach very quickly, if that ever happened.

12) Elon 68, Wm & Mary 63— Wm & Mary has never played in the NCAA Tournament, which means they’ve never won the CAA tournament; this was the 7th year in a row they were a top-4 seed in the CAA tourney, during which time they went 77-47 in regular season CAA games.

Tribe was the #2-seed this year, but they get upset in their first tournament game, despite being the #49 experience team in the country.

11) Bradley 80, Valparaiso 66— Braves win Arch Madness as the #4-seed; they won it LY as the #5-seed, first time a team won consecutive conference tournaments, being the #4 or lower seed in both events anywhere in country since Michigan in 2017, ’18.

10) Illinois 78, Iowa 76— Illini were down 10 early, but shot 62% inside arc, turned ball over only five times, and won for fifth time in their last six games. Iowa lost eight of ten conference road games this season.

9) Saint Mary’s 89, Pepperdine 82, 2OT— This game was very late Saturday night; it ended around 2:50am here in the east, so with the clocks moving forward, it came pretty close to ending after 4am. Gaels led by 13 in the second half, but blew the lead.

A player on both teams played all 50:00; six guys played 44:00+; this was a great game to watch, very fun, the players leaving it all on the floor.

Colbey Ross scored 43 for the Waves; Jordan Ford scored 43 for Saint Mary’s; both are 6-1 guards. College basketball is a guards’ game, my friends.

8) The young lady who is the dugout reporter for the Milwaukee Brewers in spring training TV games acts as her own interpreter during the game, which is pretty cool. She asks the player a question in Spanish, listens to the answer, then tells us what was said. Never saw that before.

7) Upsets:
— Elon (+7) 68, Wm & Mary 63
— North Dakota (+5.5) 74, South Dakota 71

6) I’d be OK with offensive goaltending being eliminated in basketball; saves the officials some controversial decisions, makes for some more exciting plays.

5) Los Angeles 41, Tampa Bay 34— Strange moment in the XFL: LA Wildcats’ QB Josh Johnson can apparently hear everything that the coaches are saying on their headsets. At one point, the coaches were bickering while he was in the huddle, which upset Johnson.

When Johnson comes off the field, he calls the press box and yells at OC Norm Chow, telling him the arguing has to stop, it is too distracting. He hangs up before Chow can answer him. Interesting moment. Wonder if that ever happens in the NFL.

Tampa Bay has outgained four of its five opponents, but they’re 1-4; they’re TERRIBLE in the red zone, very, very bad- they blew an 18-point lead in this game.

4) In spring training games, the base umpires don’t umpire the same base the whole day, they switch around a couple of times during the game.

3) Don Orsillo is the TV voice of the San Diego Padres; from 2001-15, he was the TV voice of the Red Sox. First game he ever did for NESN in 2001, was Hideo Nomo’s no-hitter, which is a very cool way of breaking into the major leagues.

2) Struck me the other day how much the job of manager has changed in baseball since I was a kid; back then, guys like Earl Weaver, Dick Williams, Sparky Anderson, Tommy Lasorda, they ran their franchises, what they said was gospel. Today? Not so much.

Managers have to be kinder/gentler these days; God forbid anyone gets their feelings hurt. The analytics nerds (I say that with love, I’m a nerd, too) tell them what lineups to play. Can you imagine an Ivy League nerd telling Earl Weaver what lineup to use? Ha!!!!

1) So you’re Virginia Tech’s basketball team, and you had a tough year, going 7-13 in ACC; you’re the #11-seed in ACC tournament, but the good news is you play the last place team in the first round of the ACC tournament, so at least you’ll win a game, right?

Except that this year, the #14-seed is North Carolina, a way better-than-normal last place team that just went toe-to-toe twice with Duke. Not good for the Hokies.

COLORADO AVALANCHE AT LOS ANGELES KINGS
NOT TOO LATE TO CROWN THEM

The Los Angeles Kings have ripped off five straight wins against some of the league’s best teams and host the Avalanche on Monday. Over the winning streak, the Kings have outscored their opponents 16-6 and face a Colorado team that has conceded 10 goals in its last two games.

The Kings have taken three of four points in the previous two matchups this year with the Under hitting comfortably in both those contests. We may be getting on the Kings’ train a little late, but with wins of +260, +155 and +125 in their last three it might be worth a half-unit or more to take L.A. on the moneyline as home underdogs on Monday, especially with the Avs on the backend of a back-to-back.


TAMPA BAY LIGHTNING AT TORONTO MAPLE LEAFS
LIGHTNING TO ZAP LEAFS’ OFFENSE

The Toronto Maple Leafs return home on Tuesday after a three-game California trip that saw them gain just one of six points. The Buds’ offense has turned stagnant as the usually high-scoring club has potted just three goals in its last three games. The offense will have to find a solution as Tuesday’s opponents, the Tampa Bay Lightning, have scored 10 goals in the two meetings with the Leafs this year.

The Lightning are coming off a huge win on Saturday versus the Bruins and have an 18-4 SU record versus the Atlantic division this year. Toronto, on the other hand, has played to an 11-10 SU record against the Atlantic this year. We are taking the Lightning on the moneyline in what should be decent odds for the away team.


PITTSBURGH PENGUINS AT NEW JERSEY DEVILS
RUNNING WITH THE DEVILS

If you are looking for an underdog on Tuesday’s eight-game slate, maybe New Jersey is your team. The Devils host a struggling Pittsburgh Penguins team that has lost its two most recent games by a combined score of 11-4. New Jersey has ripped off five straight wins on home ice which includes wins against the Capitals and Blues.

The surprisingly competitive play from the Devils has a lot to do with its goaltending. Teams have only been scoring 2.44 goals per game in New Jersey since the beginning of February and the team sits second in scoring chance save percentage, fourth in high-danger save percentage and fourth in overall save percentage over that time. We are running with Devils on the moneyline Tuesday night.


NEW YORK RANGERS AT COLORADO AVALANCHE
INTERCONFERENCE SCORING

Sometimes when we are looking for Overs late in the season, digging into interconference games is the best bet. Wednesday brings us an East versus West matchup in the New York Rangers and the Colorado Avalanche. Both teams are scoring and giving up nearly three goals per game over their last five with the Rangers having conceded a league-high 24 goals in their last five. New York has also hit the Over in five straight away games and is 7-2 O/U in its last nine away games versus the West.

Colorado was riding some of the league’s best goaltending but the Avs have looked sloppy defensively of late giving up 13 goals in its last three. Their offense has also turned a bit of a corner having netted three goals or more in five of its last six. We think this game can easily get to 3-3 so we are riding the Over 6 with confidence on Wednesday.


GOALIE PROFILE: JUUSE SAROS, NASHVILLE PREDATORS

Juuse Saros has taken over the No. 1 spot in Nashville as he has started 14 of the Predators’ last 20 games. Over those 14 games, the young goaltender has a 10-4 record with three shutouts including back-to-back blankings of the Stars last Thursday and Saturday.

The Under has hit in Saros’ last three games and Nashville is 0-3 O/U in its last three away games ahead of its road trip that will see stops in Montreal on Tuesday, Toronto on Thursday and Columbus on Saturday. We are riding the Preds’ new recipe for victory which is to keep the scoring to a minimum. Nashville is on strict Under protocol going forward.


INJURY UPDATE: VICTOR HEDMAN D, TAMPA BAY LIGHTNING

The Lightning may be without stud defenseman Victor Hedman for Tuesday’s match with the Toronto Maple Leafs. Hedman is nearly a point-per-game d-man and captain of the powerplay. The veteran is dealing with a lower-body injury and already missed Sunday’s game against the Red Wings.

Tampa Bay has scored 47 powerplay goals on the year with Hedman getting a point on 22 them. With the team scoring on the PP at 26 percent over the last three weeks, we are expecting a regression with the man advantage. The Lighting may be a good team to back the Under with Hedman on the shelf, especially while on the road as they are 15-18-1 O/U away from Tampa on the season.


HAT TRICK TRENDS

• The underdogs crushed it over the last seven days going 27-20 SU for 57.2 percent. Home dogs led the charge with an 11-6 record for an impressive 64 percent. Over the last month, dogs have been hitting at 45 percent and 44 percent across the season.
• The Dallas Stars have the best Under record on home ice in the league. On the year, the Stars are 8-24-1 O/U at home and host the New York Rangers on Tuesday. The New York Islanders have one of the best away Under records as they sit 9-19-4 O/U on the road this year. They travel to Vancouver on Tuesday.
• Looking at teams’ goals for and against over the last two weeks, the Washington Capitals, Vancouver Canucks and Ottawa Senators are the only teams that averaging at least three goals a game and allowing at least three goals a game.

************************************************** *****

Tuesday’s List of 13: Nobody asked me, but…….

13) Saint Mary’s 51, BYU 50— Jordan Ford is freakin’ awesome; after scoring 42 points in an epic double OT win over Pepperdine Saturday night, when he played the entire 50:00, Ford scoring the winning hoop with 0:01.4 left in this game, sending the Gaels into the WCC title game with Gonzaga tonight.

12) With Florida State getting the #1 seed in the ACC tournament, coach Leonard Hamilton banks a $100,000 bonus; hope he at least buys the players a few pizzas.

11) In the Big 14, Wisconsin’s teams have had a weird mastery over Minnesota:
— Badgers finished ahead of Minnesota in football 16 years in a row.
— Badgers finished ahead of Minnesota in basketball the last 22 years.

10) East Tennessee State 72, Wofford 58— ETSU coach Steve Forbes is 130-43 in five years as coach of the Bucs; he is a very good coach. This will be ETSU’s 2nd NCAA tournament under Forbes.

When he was growing up in Iowa, Forbes once gave up a home run to future major leaguer Tim Salmon in a Little League game.

9) Creighton is all excited about being the #1 seed in the Big East tournament this week, but if St John’s beats Georgetown Wednesday, the Bluejays’ reward for their top seed will be an actual road game against the 9th-seeded Red Storm in Madison Square Garden.

8) Green Bay G Amari Davis is a 6-3 freshman who is scoring 15.9 ppg, with a stat line that doesn’t look like he plays in 2020:
— 2-point shots: 200-389, 51.4%
— foul shots: 90-125, 72%
— 3-point shots: 0-7

Green Bay makes 36.6% of its 3’s as a team, but Davis isn’t a part of that.

7) Upsets:
— Miami (+9) 85, Buffalo 79
— Ill-Chicago (+6) 73, Wright State 56
— Saint Mary’s (+4) 51, BYU 50

6) Coaching carousel:
— James Madison fired Louis Rowe
— Loyola Marymount fired Mike Dunlap
— Wyoming fired Alan Edwards
— Air Force fired Dave Pilipovich

5) Chicago Cubs’ leadoff hitters had an on-base %age of only .294 LY, lowest in major leagues by 14 points. Cardinals were 2nd-lowest, at .308.

4) Weird scheduling thing: Padres-Rockies play 10 of their first 19 games against each other. By April 16, they will have met 10 times, then they don’t play again until June 19.

3) Last season in the NFL, road teams scored 5,828 points, home teams 5,822 points, the first time that happened since 1968.

2) The average NFL point spread last year was the home team favored by 1.5 points, the lowest such spread since 1976.

1) From 2016-19, the average NFL team spent $703M in payroll; the team that spend the least in payroll, from 2016-19? Dallas Cowboys, at $634.4M.

Wednesday’s 6-pack
NBA trends for Wednesday night:
— 76ers won/covered their last five games with Detroit.
— Knicks are 1-6-2 ATS if they played the night before.
— Miami is 5-2-1 ATS in its last eight games with Charlotte.
— Thunder covered seven of their last eight games with Utah.
— Mavericks covered only one of last five games.
— Pelicans covered five of their last six games with Sacramento.


Quote of the Day:
“I couldn’t imagine being a senior and fighting to make the tournament and then someone telling me in a meeting that my season is just over. Nah that ain’t right. Play in an empty gym and let the players decide. Smh I don’t like this at all.”
Cornell basketball alum Matt Morgan, on Ivy League tournament being cancelled

Wednesday’s quiz
Where did the Texas Rangers call home, before they moved to the Lone Star State?

Tuesday’s quiz
Art Fleming was the host of Jeopardy! before Alex Trebek.

Monday’s quiz
Most outs a team could get in one inning without scoring a run is six.

************************************************** ***********

Wednesday’s List of 13: Mid-week musings…….

13) Ivy League cancelled its two-day basketball tournament, because of growing coronavirus outbreak concerns. Yale won the regular season title, so they’ll go to the NCAA tournament.

MAC, Big West tournaments will be played without fans, because of health concerns.

12) In a related subject, MGM Resorts will temporarily close its Las Vegas buffets, starting Sunday, obviously because of growing coronavirus fears- it affects buffets at Aria, Bellagio, MGM Grand, Mandalay Bay, The Mirage, Luxor and Excalibur.

I’m heading out to America’s favorite city pretty soon; hope they keep the pizza place and In ’n Out Burger open. A guy’s got to eat.

11) WCC tournament:
Gonzaga 84, Saint Mary’s 68— Gaels are 26-8, but 0-3 vs Gonzaga; Jordan Ford scored 27 points in a losing cause, playing the whole game. What a week he had.

10) CAA tournament:
Hofstra 70, Northeastern 61— Pride win CAA tourney for first time; they won America East a couple times 20+ years ago, are experience team #7 with a bench that plays fewest minutes in the whole country.

9) Summit tournament:
North Dakota State 89, North Dakota 53— Horrible game; North Dakota ruined tournament when they upset South Dakota State- that would’ve been the ideal final. Game was 23-5 after 10:00 and it only got worse from there.

8) Horizon tournament:
Northern Kentucky 71, Ill-Chicago 62— 23 short days ago, NKU lost 73-43 at home to UIC; game was 44-18 at halftime. Norse shot 68% inside arc in this game, a fairly comfortable win.

7) NEC tournament:
Robert Morris 77, St Francis PA 67— Colonials won 16 of their last 21 games after starting season 4-9; this was teams’ third meeting in three weeks. St Francis starts three seniors and was a road favorite in this game; they were only 3-17 on arc, are shooting 36% for season on arc.

6) Upsets:
— Hartford (+7) 64, Stony Brook 58
— Howard (+6) 70, South Carolina State 63
— Niagara (+1.5) 56, Marist 54
— Robert Morris (+1.5) 77, St Francis PA 67

6) Nebraska’s basketball team was down to seven scholarship players for the Big 14 tournament this week, so they added a couple of football players to the roster. One is a backup QB, the other an offensive lineman who I assume will set a lot of screens.

Nebraska plays Indiana Wednesday, is a heavy underdog.

5) ESPN was trying to make a trade with NBC and get Al Michaels to broadcast its Monday night games with Peyton Manning, but NBC apparently turned down their request.

4) NFL’s Hall of Fame Game in Canton this summer will be Steelers-Cowboys.

3) North Carolina 78, Virginia Tech 56— Still weird that UNC is the #14 seed in ACC tourney; I mean,. Syracuse is the #6-seed, had a bye yesterday, is playing the last place team, but it is freakin’ North Carolina, which won four of its last five games. Not an easy path.

2) Baseball Hall of Famer Larry Walker will fulfill a lifelong dream this weekend; he will be an honorary emergency goaltender for NHL’s Colorado Avalanche in their game Sunday against the Vegas Golden Knights. Walker was a goalie growing up in Canada, and once tried out for the Western Hockey League’s Regina Pats, but luckily for him, he got cut and played baseball.

1) Celtics 114, Pacers 111— Boston blew a 19-point lead, but won and clinched a playoff spot, their sixth year in a row in the playoffs.
