Fairfield at Canisius
After starting off the season by losing 15 of its first 18, Fairfield has suddenly turned it up a notch and comes into the contest with a five-game winning streak, including road victories at Siena and Iona. The Stags beat higher-rated Niagara (68-56) in their last outing, while holding the Purple Eagles to 18 points under their season average. It was the second straight game the Stags had held an opponent under 60 points. Canisius has also won five straight, but has shown vulnerability at home by losing to MAAC rivals Siena (78-60) and Manhattan (60-51) last month. The Stags look like a good underdog pick (+4 1/2) in this one according to Dunkel, which has Fairfield favored straight up by 3. Dunkel Pick: Fairfield (+4 1/2). Here are all of today's games.

Golden State at Philadelphia
The Sixers come into the contest playing their best basketball of the season in winning five of their last eight. The key to the success has been the combination of 7-footer Steven Hunter and 6-11 Samuel Dalembert in the starting lineup.

The Warriors have been particularly bad recently as they have averaged just 95.5 points (10 below their season average) while giving up 119.5 points over their last two games. The Sixers look like a good pick to cover the Vegas line (-1) according to Dunkel, which has Philadelphia favored by 10 1/2. Dunkel Pick: Philadelphia (-1). Here are all of today's games.

St. Louis at Detroit

Golden State Warriors at Philadelphia 76ers (7 PM ET)
Golden State is 4-17 on the road this season and has not won away from home since a 97-89 victory over New Orleans on January 2nd. The Warriors are averaging 95.5 points - 10 below their season average - the past two games while shooting 42 percent from the field and eight percent from 3-point range. BIG EDGE: SIXERS
The 76ers are 4-14 against the Western Conference this year. EDGE: WARRIORS

The favorite is 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings.




Los Angeles Lakers at Indiana Pacers (7 PM ET)
Lakers guard Kobe Bryant is averaging 37 points in his last four contests, including a 43-point effort against Boston on Wednesday night. EDGE: LAKERS
The Pacers, who are tied with Atlanta for last in the conference in field-goal shooting at 43.7 percent, hit a season-best 53.6 percent (37-for-69) on Monday. EDGE: UNDER
Bryant was held to 21 points in the first meeting this season with the Pacers, but the Lakers won 101-87 on December 4th at Staples Center. However, Los Angeles has dropped its last three visits to Conseco Fieldhouse. EDGE: PACERS

The home team is 7-0 ATS in the last seven meetings.




Toronto Raptors at Atlanta Hawks (7:30 PM ET)
The Raptors have won eight of their last 11 trips to Atlanta, but they lost 97-93 on November 24th in their only visit this season. The Hawks had won three straight overall in this series before losing 105-92 at Toronto on Jan. 5 in the most recent meeting. SLIGHT EDGE: RAPTORS
Atlanta finished January with an 8-7 record. It's the team's first winning month since a 4-3 mark in April 2004, and the first time the Hawks have won at least eight games in a month since going 9-7 in March 2002. EDGE: HAWKS

The OVER is 10-1 in the last 11 meetings.




Los Angeles Clippers at Boston Celtics (7:30 PM ET)

Boston has been without star guard Paul Pierce for 22 games and is averaging 92.5 points in his absence - a drop off of more than eight points per game. EDGE: CLIPPERS & UNDER

The OVER is 5-0 in the last five meetings.




Minnesota Timberwolves at New Orleans Hornets (8 PM ET)
New Orleans has scored 100-plus points in only four of its last 27 games. EDGE: UNDER
NBA insiders are quick to note that the Hornets offense was ineffective in point guard Chris Paul's first game back after a month-long absence, but the team is excited to be 3-1 on its current five-game homestand. EDGE: HORNETS

The underdog is 9-1 ATS in the last 10 meetings.




Portland Trail Blazers at Denver Nuggets (9 PM ET)
Denver is just 8-11 with Allen Iverson in the lineup and only 2-3 with both him and Carmelo Anthony on the floor. SLIGHT EDGE: BLAZERS
Look for Anthony to come out on a mission to prove he should not have been snubbed as a reserve for the Western Conference All-Stars on Thursday. Anthony leads the NBA in scoring yet was not chosen due to his role in a brawl at Madison Square Garden back on December 16th. BIG EDGE: NUGGETS
The Nuggets are 12-12 at the Pepsi Center, where they will play three of their next four. However, the Nuggets have lost two straight and seven of 10 at home. Portland has lost six in a row and 12 of 13 at Denver. EDGE: NUGGETS

Chicago Bulls at Seattle SuperSonics (ESPN | 10:30 PM ET)
Chicago lost for the seventh time in eight road games versus Western Conference clubs with a 110-98 setback to the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday. EDGE: SONICS
The Bulls are hopeful that center Ben Wallace will return Friday night. The team played without him on Wednesday night due to a bruised tendon in his left knee. Head coach Scott Skiles said the All-Star center could return either for this contest or Saturday at Golden State. EDGE: BULLS
Seattle guard Ray Allen has averaged 33.2 points over the last five games, but Seattle has lost four of them while allowing 109.8 points. EDGE: OVER

The Sonics are 1-7 ATS in their last eight games playing on one day of rest.

Friday's List of 13:

Super Bowl proposition bets............


At the bottom of this list, we'll post our two selections for prop investments for the Super Bowl.......

13) If you just want to wager on the first half, Colts are -3.5, with total of 24 for the first thirty minutes.

12) Over/under just for the Colts is 28; for the Bears, 21.

11) Over/under on first downs is 22 for Colts, 18.5 for Bears.

10) Over/under for total field goals in game: 3.5

9) Colts are -$140 to score first in second half.

8) Bears are -$135 to turn the ball over first.

7) Chicago is also -$135 to kick the longest field goal............

6).......but Colts are -$145 to score longest touchdown.

5) Over/under for passing yards: for Manning, 264, and for Grossman, 199.5.

4) Over/under for rushing yards: for Addai, 62.5, Thomas 78.5 Benson, 42.5.

3) Over/under for receiving yards: for Harrison, 77, for Wayne 76.5, DClark, 52.5, Berrian, 65.5.

2) You have to lay -$185 if you think there will be no TDs on either defense or special teams.

1) My picks? I like
-- the Bears, under 18.5 first downs........
-- Joseph Addai, under 62.5 rushing yards.
