**********

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

13) North Carolina 71, Gonzaga 65— Ton of missed shots led to a game with lot of whistles; both teams shot under 36% for the game. Zags had the lead in last 2:00- they missed an awful lot of shots in the paint. Tar Heels win a title this year, after losing at the buzzer LY. As for Gonzaga, they had a great season that had a disappointing ending.

12) 25 guys on the San Diego Padres’ Opening Day roster make a total of $28.13M this season. Clayton Kershaw makes $33M, all by himself.

11) Dodgers and Detroit Tigers have baseball’s highest payrolls this season.

10) Indians play in Arizona this weekend, which means no DH; I’m hoping they use Carlos Santana in the outfield for a game; then he becomes eligible in the outfield all season for my fantasy team. Would be a big help to the Armadillos.

9) Eagles and Redskins are only teams that will be playing both Rams/Chargers in Los Angeles this season; Eagles would like those games in consecutive weeks.

8) Cincinnati Bengals haven’t opened a season at home since 2009; they want to open at home this season.

7) Duke has had two basketball players transfer since their season ended two weeks ago; it is not a good optic. It almost seems like that if you’re not good enough to jump to the NBA or start for the Blue Devils, then they tell you to take a hike.

6) First meal when I got to Las Vegas: Steak ’n Shake. Tastes good and doesn’t cost much. Also had my first-ever chicken quesadilla Monday night- it will not be my last one.

5) This 10-day disabled list in baseball is going to take some getting used to- has been 15 days for a long time— it was 21 before that.

4) Rangers’ SS Elvis Andrus learned English by listening to Rascal Flatts songs. Really, he did.

3) Oklahoma City Thunder is 31-9 when Russell Westbrook gets a triple/double, 13-24 when he does not.

2) Since 1970, most pitches thrown in an Opening Day start: Jack Morris (144) 1992, Roger Clemens (135) 1988, Randy Johnson (133) 2000 and 2001.

1a) North Carolina won the national title in men’s basketball.
1b) South Carolina won the women’s national title.
1c) Coastal Carolina’s cheerleaders were suspended after they were anonymously accused of being involved in a prostitution ring, amongst other things.

Big year in the Carolinas. Oy.

Inside the Paint - Tuesday
April 4, 2017

Now that the college basketball season is over, the NBA will start to flex its muscle on the hardwood with the postseason less than two weeks away. Tuesday’s slate has 11 games on the board and below is my quick handicap.

Eastern Conference Outlook

Only four of the eight seeds in the Eastern Conference have been locked up and Milwaukee is very close to becoming the fifth. With that being said, there are six teams mathematically alive for the final three spots and three of them are playing Tuesday.

EASTERN CONFERENCE PLAYOFF RACE
Position Team Record Games Back
5 Milwaukee 40-37 -
6 Atlanta 39-38 -
7 Chicago 38-39 -
8 Miami 37-40 -
9 Indiana 37-40 -
10 Charlotte 36-41 1
11 Detroit 35-42 2

Charlotte is one game out but it’s playing its best basketball of the season right now. The Hornets have gone 7-3 in their last 10 and they bring a three-game winning streak to Washington on Tuesday. They just beat the Wizards 98-93 at home on Mar. 18 and they’re fortunate to catch Washington coming back from a long five-game road trip that saw them lose their final three contests. The Hornets are averaging 111.2 points per game in their last eight and that’s helped the ‘over’ go 7-1. Washington is one of the best home teams (29-10 SU, 22-17 ATS) but the travel factor could play a difference tonight.

Indiana is tied with Miami for the eighth spot but are on the outside looking in since the Heat own the head-to-head tiebreaker. The Pacers can only blame themselves if they miss the playoffs, losers in four straight and seven of their last 10. The defense is a mess lately and it’s translated into an 8-1 ‘over’ run. Toronto visits tonight and the line tells you that Indiana (-2 ½) is the play. The Pacers have been better at home (26-12 SU, 20-18 ATS) but the Raptors have won eight of their last nine games, which includes a 111-100 home win over Indiana this past Friday. When you consider the form, the Raptors appear to be a no-brainer but be careful of that number.

Chicago has turned it on of late with four consecutive wins, two of them coming on the road as healthy underdogs as well. Sunday’s 117-110 victory at New Orleans was a serious statement and they were playing that game on no rest as well. A letdown on Tuesday could be expected against a New York squad that is playing with second stringers. The Knicks have covered three of their last five games and for what it’s worth, New York is 2-0 both SU and ATS versus Chicago this season and those wins came by double digits. Based on the casualties for the Knicks, you would expect the Bulls (-3) to be laying a tad more but the hesitation from the oddsmakers is justified. Make a note that Chicago is averaging 108.5 PPG since Dwyane Wade has been ruled ‘out’ for the season and that’s led to a 7-2 ‘over’ mark.

Western Conference Outlook

Seven of the eight spots in the West are locked up but the seeds are still up in the air. Portland (38-39) holds a 1 ½-game lead over Denver (36-40) for the eighth and final spot, plus the Trail Blazers hold the head-to-head tiebreaker over the Nuggets.

Portland had to play a make-up game last night at Minnesota and it dropped a tough 110-109 decision, which snapped a six-game winning streak for the club. The Trail Blazers (+1 ½) managed to cover and are 7-0 ATS in their last seven. They head to Utah tonight and the game means something to the Jazz, who are trying to earn the No. 4 seed in the West over the Los Angeles Clippers. The Trail Blazers have won and covered seven straight games on no rest but they’ve dropped their last two at Salt Lake City, which includes a 111-88 setback on Feb. 15.

Denver has a solid shot to close the gap tonight when it visits New Orleans, who could be without All-Star forward Anthony Davis (ankle). The Nuggets snapped a three-game skid on Sunday with a 116-113 win at Miami. If you’re leaning to Denver, then you better hope they shoot well considering how bad the defense has been lately. They’re allowing an eye-opening 115.1 PPG in their last 10 and it’s amazing that they’ve gone .500 (5-5) during this span. The ‘over’ is 8-2. This head-to-head series has watched the visitor win seven of the last eight meetings between the pair, which includes Denver’s 107-102 win at New Orleans on opening night.

Golden Tickets

A lot of pundits wrote off the Golden State Warriors last month after the club had dropped five of seven games, which includes a 107-85 loss at San Antonio on Mar. 11 when they rested four key players. After the setback, it appeared that San Antonio was going to steal the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference.

Golden State started the second-half of the season with a dreadful 1-10 record against the spread and they just didn’t look the same without Kevin Durant in the lineupe.

Rather than try to fill the void of the injured All-Star, head coach Steve Kerr focused on defense and that mindset has turned things around quickly. Since the 2-5 drought, the Warriors have won 11 straight and the team has regained the confidence of bettors with an 8-2-1 ATS mark during this streak while the defense (98.7 PPG) has been super.

In the same span, San Antonio has gone a respectable 8-3 and one of those losses came to the Warriors (110-98) at home on Mar. 29. With all that being said, Golden State has a magic number of four with seven games to play and it’s expected to dig into that number when the Timberwolves (+13 ½) visit on Tuesday. Minnesota has gone 5-7 SU and 7-5 ATS on no rest this season but it will be facing a Golden State team looking to avenge a 103-102 loss to the Timberwolves at the Target Center on Mar. 10.

With Golden State close to locking up the No. 1 seed, I wouldn’t be surprised to see Gregg Popovich take the next two weeks off knowing they have the No. 2 sealed up already. Memphis (+8) visits San Antonio on Tuesday and the Grizzlies have gone 2-1 SU and 3-0 ATS in the three meetings this season. Make a note that Memphis enters this game with five straight losses on the road and is 3-7 in its last 10 away games.

Tuesday’s Trends to Watch

Philadelphia has won and covered all three meetings against Brooklyn this season while the ‘under’ has gone 3-0 in all three games.

Cleveland has won 16 straight games versus Orlando and even more impressive, the Cavaliers have gone 14-2 ATS during this streak.

Milwaukee is coming off a 109-105 home loss to Dallas on Sunday as it visits Oklahoma City on Tuesday. The Bucks are 6-1 in their last seven games off a loss, the last two-game slide coming on Mar. 1.

Sticking with Dallas, the Mavericks haven’t won two straight games since Mar. 11 and are 0-4 in their last four games off a win. The Kings (-2 ½) listed as favorites sort of sets the tone for this meaningless matchup from Sacrmento.
