      Detroit Shock at Connecticut Sun (-2, 150 1/2)

      This is the first meeting for these teams since Detroit toppled the Sun last August to win the Eastern Conference. The Shock limited 4-point favorite Connecticut to 18 second-half points in their 79-55 win.

      Detroit went on to win the 2006 WNBA title and has continued its winning ways by starting the season 5-0. The team’s confidence level has never been higher.

      "We are the best team," Deanna Nolan told reporters after Friday night’s win over the previously undefeated New York Liberty. "And we can only beat ourselves."

      For their part, Connecticut has solved their scoring woes since last summer’s elimination game. The Sun have won three straight games, averaging 88.7 points during the modest win streak. They set a franchise record with 32 points in a quarter in Houston on Friday.

      The Shock have dropped a couple of paydays by being favored in every game so far. Connecticut, however, has the big names and the home court to make Sunday’s line more intriguing. It’s rarely a bad bet to back a confident champion, especially when they’re getting decent value.

      Pick: Shock



      New York Liberty at Indiana Fever (-8, 141)

      It’s another clash of Eastern Conference elites in Sunday’s other game as the 5-1 Liberty meet the 6-1 Fever. Both clubs have been a goldmine for backers, combining for a 10-3 ATS mark in 2007.

      Indiana’s sole loss of the season was to New York last Tuesday at Madison Square Garden. The Liberty were on fire from the floor, nailing six of their nine 3-pointers and hitting 61.5 percent overall, as they won 78-67 as 4 ½-point home underdogs.

      The scene shifts to the Midwest for Sunday and the teams have had varying experiences since Tuesday night. Indiana beat Houston by 25 points and Washington by five, covering the spread in both games. New York has since played only once, losing to Detroit by 10 points on Friday night.

      The Fever have the better record, but competition has been lacking. Their six wins have come against teams with a combined 4-23 record this year. They have, however, a frontcourt that can bully the Liberty like Detroit did.

      It should be a fairly even game at Conseco Fieldhouse, but Indiana’s home court and free throw shooting (56-for-63 in their last three games) should be enough for the win and to meet the number as well.

      Pick: Fever

            #2 Cleveland Cavaliers at #3 San Antonio Spurs
            Game 2 - Sunday, June 10th, 9 p.m. Eastern (ABC)

            Cleveland is 1-5 straight-up in the playoffs when star LeBron James scores 20 points or less, with the win coming in the clinching victory over Detroit in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Finals. However, the Cavs are a perfect 11-0 this postseason when James scores more than 20. The Spurs did an excellent job forcing him to take bad shots with various double-teams and got him to turn the ball over six times, tied for the most he's had in any playoff game. Since his monstrous 48-point performance in Game 5 at Detroit, James is shooting just 26 percent from the field (7-of-27). Much like the Eastern Conference Finals, it could be difficult for James to get on track until the Cavs return home in Game 3. EDGE: SPURS
            It's clear that San Antonio's Tony Parker is a much more difficult matchup for Cleveland's Larry Hughes, who is bothered by plantar fasciitis in his left foot. Parker is one of the fastest guards in the NBA, and Hughes simply can't keep up with him in this series after facing more of a post-up guard in Detroit's Chauncey Billups in the last series. Hughes played less than half of Game 1 and made just 1-of-5 shots to finish with two points while Parker scored a game-high 27. Look for the Cavs to adjust by playing rookie Daniel Gibson more in Hughes' place with James also picking up Parker at times. EDGE: SPURS
            Both teams have made excellent adjustments between games throughout the playoffs. The last time the Spurs were in the NBA Finals back in 2005, they played much better offensively in Game 2, scoring 13 points more and winning by 21. Insiders expect a similar performance here, especially since anything but an improved effort could mean the possibility of heading off to Cleveland tied 1-1.The Cavs are also 3-0 ATS in the second road game of each series so far and should not be nearly as nervous in Game 2. SLIGHT EDGE: SPURS
            The Cavs have won 16 straight games when scoring 86 points or more.
            San Antonio's last 14 home wins have been decided by seven points or more, with 11 of those decided by eight or more (Phoenix lost by seven twice).
            The team that wins Game 1 of the NBA Finals has gone on to win the NBA Finals nearly 72 percent of the time (43 of 60 times).
            Cleveland is 21-7-1 ATS in its last 29 road games.
            San Antonio is 5-14 ATS in its last 19 against Central Division opponents.
            UNDER is 7-2 in Cleveland's last 9 games as an underdog.
            UNDER is 7-1 in Cleveland's last 8 road games.
            UNDER is 12-5 in San Antonio's last 17 games as a favorite.

            2007 NBA FINALS (HOME team in CAPS)

            RESULTS

            6/7/07 - Game 1 - SAN ANTONIO 85, Cleveland 76 (ATS winner: SA -7.5 | UNDER 179.5)
            Recap | Boxscore
            Summary: The Spurs bottled up Cleveland star LeBron James for most of the night and took charge in the third quarter, outscoring the Cavs 24-14. San Antonio extended a 5-point halftime lead to 15 heading into the fourth quarter, and that proved to be the difference. A late rally by the Cavs fell short of a cover, and the fourth turned out to be the only quarter with more than 40 combined points as the UNDER cashed easily.

            REGULAR-SEASON RESULTS

            Cleveland wins 2-0 SU & ATS
            UNDER 2-0

            1/2/07 - CLEVELAND 82, San Antonio 78 (ATS winner: Cleve +3.5 | UNDER 185)
            11/3/07 - Cleveland 88, SAN ANTONIO 81 (ATS winner: Cleve +5.5 | UNDER 184.5)

            REGULAR-SEASON SERIES RECAP: Since these teams only played each other twice during the regular season, we will look at the last four meetings. Cleveland has won the last three meetings both straight-up and against the spread after losing the previous four. LeBron James led the way for the Cavs in the last three meetings, averaging nearly 33 points, six rebounds and five assists per game. Spurs star Tim Duncan put up solid numbers of nearly 21 points and 12 rebounds per game in the last four meetings but his supporting cast was a bit limited. Top reserve Manu Ginobili averaged 10.5 points for San Antonio in the four games and has been known to step up on a larger stage. The problem is, he will be one of the players responsible for guarding James, who should take advantage of anybody the Spurs throw at him.

              Cleveland Cavaliers at San Antonio Spurs (-7 ½, 176 ½)

              The Spurs covered the spread in Game 1 of the NBA Finals, but not by the most convincing margin. They let a large second-half lead dwindle to five points in the fourth quarter and barely met the number in the game’s dying minutes.

              They did so with LeBron James having a quiet game and two other Cavs starters, Zydrunas Ilgauskas and Larry Hughes, missing in action. Does this combination of factors set the scene for a strong Cleveland comeback? Only if bettors think San Antonio brought its ‘A’ game for the opener and won’t improve as much as the Cavs.

              The Spurs themselves think there’s plenty of room for improvement. They were sloppy on the offensive end at times, committing more turnovers than the visitors. And as invisible as Big Z and Hughes were for Cleveland, Fabricio Oberto and Michael Finley were equally unproductive for the hosts.

              Finley admitted a case of nerves prior to the first Finals game of his career and went 1-for-7 from the floor. Oberto’s hustle turned into a couple of early fouls and he never got untracked after that, ending up with zero points. These guys weren’t shut down by the Cavs’ defense, they shut themselves down, something unlikely to happen again on Sunday night.

              Any contribution from the pair will be gravy as long as the Big Three of Tim Duncan, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili pick up where they left off on Thursday. But with the Spurs laying 7 ½ points against a strong defensive team, San Antonio backers will take all the gravy they can handle.

              Pick: Spurs -7 ½

                NBA Today - June 10


                SCOREBOARD

                Sunday, June 10

                Cleveland at San Antonio (9 p.m. EDT).

                The Spurs try to take a 2-0 series lead.

                LOW INTEREST

                Game 1 of the NBA finals drew the lowest rating for an opening game in prime time, dropping 19 percent from last year. San Antonio's 85-76 victory over Cleveland on Thursday night earned a 6.3 rating and 11 share on ABC. The previous low was a 6.4/11 in 2003. Last year's Game 1 between Miami and Dallas earned a 7.8 rating and 14 share.

                WELCOME BACK

                Former NBA player Jerry Sichting was hired as an assistant coach with the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday, his second stint with the team. Sichting was an assistant for the Wolves under coach Flip Saunders from 1995-05. After Saunders was fired, Sichting became an assistant at Marquette. Sichting played 10 seasons in the NBA for Indiana, Boston, Portland, Charlotte and Milwaukee.

                SPEAKING

                ''We've been in this position before. We've been down 2-0 and came back and won a series. So it's nothing new to us. But we don't want to go down 2-0 against this team.'' - Cleveland's LeBron James after Thursday night's 85-76 Game 1 loss to San Antonio. The Cavaliers overcame an 0-2 deficit against Detroit to make the finals for the first time.

                  Sunday NBA Gameday

                  NBA
                  Gameday




                  The San Antonio Spurs were big favorites to win the championship prior to Game 1 of the NBA Finals, and Thursday's series opener only served to make them bigger faves.

                  San Antonio jumped out to a 40-35 halftime lead over Cleveland in Game 1, extended that advantage to 15 points by the end of the third quarter, and then cruised from there to an 85-76 victory at AT&T Center. The Spurs managed to cover the 8-point spread at home in that contest, while the combined score fell UNDER the posted total (180 points)

                  Tony Parker led the way for the Spurs in Game 1 with 27 points and seven assists. Tim Duncan picked up 24 points and grabbed 13 rebounds in the win, while Manu Ginobili added 16 points and eight boards. Bruce Bowen was next on the list with just six points.

                  For the Cavaliers, LeBron James was held to just 14 points and a team-high seven rebounds in the loss. Daniel Gibson was Cleveland's highest scorer with 16 points, while Drew Gooden scored 14 and Sasha Pavlovic added 13 points. Anderson Varejao also hit double-digits with 10 points, and Larry Hughes could contribute only two points.

                  So now James and company will need to win Game 2 on Sunday night (9:00pm ET) in order to avoid an 0-2 deficit in the series. The oddsmakers, though, think that San Antonio will win in a walk once again - the Spurs opened as 7-point favorites for Game 2, and that line has moved to 7.5 or 8 points at most books. The total sits at 177 points.

                  As for the series, San Antonio's easy win in Game 1 has them now listed as high as -850 or -900 favorites to win the NBA Finals at most books (they opened as just a -510 favorite). The Cavaliers have dropped from +410 underdogs to as low as +600 or +650.

                  So far the Spurs have had little trouble winning on their own court - they're 8-2 in San Antonio during the postseason. San Antonio lost 95-89 to the Denver Nuggets in Game 1 of their Western Conference quarterfinal series, and they also got knocked off 104-98 by the Phoenix Suns in the second round. The Spurs were 3-0 at home in the Western Conference Finals versus the Utah Jazz, including a huge 109-84 win in the final game.

                  Cleveland went 1-2 on the road against the Detroit Pistons in the Eastern Conference Finals, with their lone victory coming in double overtime in Game 5. In the first two rounds the Cavs went 4-1 on the road versus the New Jersey Nets and the Washington Wizards. At home Cleveland has been almost unbeatable - they're 7-1 in the playoffs.

                  And the good news for the Cavaliers is that they'll get three straight home dates with the Spurs starting in Game 3 on Tuesday night - thanks to the league's 2-3-2 playoff schedule for the Finals. If Cleveland can defy the odds and get a win on Sunday night, suddenly they'll be in the driver's seat for this series against the heavily-favored Spurs.

                  Here is the complete schedule for the rest of this year's NBA Finals (all games 9pm ET):

                  Game 2 - Sunday, June 10 - Cleveland at San Antonio
                  Game 3 - Tuesday, June 12 - San Antonio at Cleveland
                  Game 4 - Thursday, June 14 - San Antonio at Cleveland
                  Game 5 - Sunday, June 17 - San Antonio at Cleveland
                  Game 6 - Tuesday, June 19 - Cleveland at San Antonio
                  Game 7 - Thursday, June 21 - Cleveland at San Antonio

                  Check your favorite books for the current lines, totals, and prop wagers for this series. Both teams have empty injury lists right now, although Hughes is playing through a sore foot; watch for the guard to get stuck on the bench if he can't produce early on Sunday

                    Ilgauskus, Pavlovic, Hughes combined to shoot 8-25 in Game 1; Gooden and Gibson were effective, but unless more of the first unit guys step up and make plays, James will get hemmed in by Bowen and Spur helpers, and will just get banged all over court like he was Thursday. Key to any Cleveland game in playoffs is contributions of complimentary guys; they must do enough to keep Cavaliers in game until the fourth quarter, when James can then take over. But if not, they're going home down 2-0.

                          Six-pack for Sunday

                          -- Derek Lowe threw a 98-pitch complete game vs Toronto, but lost 1-0; Matt Stairs hit a 6th-inning homer. Jays gave a lot of money to Vernon Wells, who has one home run in his last 38 games, and is only hitting .250. Not good.

                          -- Braves pitching staff is fouled up; Smoltz is hurting, and Tim Hudson left Saturday's game after being hit with a line drive. Mets should jog in NL East, however............

                          -- Jose Reyes has scored zero runs in June, despite being on base 38.9% of time (14-36); in Mets' last 17 games, he's been on base 31 times, and scored exactly five runs, so.....

                          -- .....could someone please wake Willie Randolph up and tell him to put Wright or LoDuca in the 2-hole? The stiffs they're putting there (Gomez-Chavez-Valentin) aren't doing the job to get runs in. Delgado has been awful at #4, too.

                          -- Dan Haren's ERA is now 1.58. Tremendous pitcher.

                          -- Alex Rodriguez has 6 homers, 16 RBI in 18 ABs in ninth inning this season; last year, he hit .143 in the ninth inning, with three homers and five RBI. Times change.

                            Sunday's Den: Random information for a June Sunday

                            13) Miami gave up a 5th-round pick for Trent Green; hard to imagine they'll get anything for Culpepper, so they'll have to release him. Where does he sign? My guess is the Raiders, but how quickly has his career gone downhill? He still has at least a couple of good years left, provided his knee his OK.

                            12) I am amazed by coverage ESPN gives the NFL during the springtime. If you didn't know any better, you'd think it was the middle of the season.

                            11) I saw Roger Clemens pitch in Cooperstown back in '84, I think it was, against Astros, ironically. George H Bush was in the house; the Red Sox had a powerful lineup full of sluggers, while Houston had a good team, but a light-hitting one.

                            10) The home run hitting contest was a joke; only Astros guy who was close to hitting ball out of park was catcher Bailey, while Red Sox had murderers' row: Rice-Evans-Armas-Boggs Buckner and Mike Easler. Very one-sided contest.

                            9) Toronto reliever Downs had Tommy John surgery back in 2001; two years later, he was pitching in Edmonton, where his pitching coach was none other than.........Tommy John.

                            8) AL swept the three late games Saturday, giving them 18-10 lead in interleague play this weekend, 40-28 for the season so far. Under is 10-6-1 this weekend in games in AL parks with the DH, 3-7-1 in the DH-less games. Go figure.

                            7) If the baseball playoff started Sunday morning, these clubs would be the participants........
                            National League-- Mets-Brewers-Padres-Arizona
                            American League-- Red Sox-Indians-Angels-Detroit

                            6) A's like to draft against tide of public opinion; this year, they drafted 12 guys under 6-feet tall, going for players who can play, rather than kids who look good in a uniform. They also took only 11 high school kids, with seven of the eleven taken from rounds 37-53, very late.

                            5) There are pitchers in the major leagues with bad pitching names: Loe (Kameron), Slowey (Kevin), Homer (Bailey). Who wants a pitcher to be named Homer? Would you respect the fastball thrown by a guy named Slowey?

                            4) Christian Guzman is 7-for-9 in his return to Metrodome with the Nationals, who beat Minnesota in first two series games.

                            3) Devil Rays are 4-2 this week, and they led by 8-1/8-2 in two games they lost; if this team ever got pitching from someone other than Shields, they actually might approach mediocrity.

                            2) You see these young pitchers come to the big leagues and struggle, and you wonder if they'll ever make it. But then you look at the record book and see that Tom Glavine was 7-17 in 1988, when he was 22, and the Braves weren't good yet. It all turned out pretty well for him, didn't it?

                            1) Quote of the Day: "What the world needs is less mental hospitals and more minor league baseball."
                            Bill Murray, Rolling Stone Magazine, 1982
