Previews and Picks

Saturday, November 1

Hamilton Tiger-Cats (3-14) vs Winnipeg Blue Bombers (7-10) (-7)

The Blue Bombers have many injured players only a week away from their playoff game against Edmonton. Cornerback Willie Amos aggravated a hamstring injury last week in Montreal, DB Anthony Malbrough is nursing a groin injury and quarterbacks Kevin Glenn (thumb) and Ryan Dinwiddie (ankle) are also hurt. Running backs Joe Smith (knee) and Fred Reid (sore ribs) are also beat up entering the final stretch. Hamilton has only one win to show in eight road games this season, but bettors should keep in mind some Ti-Cat players are still trying to win spots on next year’s roster. Winnipeg wants to finish the regular season on a high note but at what cost? This is another game to handle with caution.

Pick: Hamilton

B.C. Lions (11-6) at Calgary Stampeders (12-5) (Pick 'em)

Buck Pierce, who left last week's game against Toronto with an ankle injury, is expected to be the starting QB for British Columbia, but the Lions will have to go on without star running back Charles Roberts. His place in the lineup will be taken by Stefan Logan who returns after missing the last two weeks because of sore ribs. This is a meaningful game for the Stamps, who won’t play a significant matchup until the Western final. Go with the Lions, especially if Saskatchewan stumbles in Toronto.

Pick : B.C.

Cleveland Cavaliers at New Orleans Hornets [8 PM ET]

Cavs: Cleveland star LeBron James led the NBA in scoring last year but was held to 21 points on 40 percent shooting in two losses to New Orleans last season. James had the luxury of only playing 30 minutes in a 96-79 rout of Charlotte on Thursday, totaling 22 points, nine rebounds and nine assists. He was lucky enough to play 30 minutes or less only twice all of last season. "We had a lot of guys contribute and I got a lot of rest,” James said Thursday. “Coach believes in our roster and I believe in our roster. I don’t have to average 42 minutes like I have in the past because of our depth.”

Cavs are 7-0 ATS in their last 7 games overall.
The UNDER is 15-6 in Cleveland's last 21 games overall.

Key Injuries - F Darnell Jackson (wrist) is OUT.

PROJECTED SCORE: 92

Hornets (-4.5, O/U 189): The most valuable signing of the offseason may have very well been James Posey, who could end up starting for Peja Stojakovic after winning a championship with the Celtics last year. Posey scored 13 points in Thursday's 108-95 win at Phoenix, and head coach Byron Scott is happy to have him on his side. “He’s like a few players in this league that can affect a game without scoring,” Scott said. “He’s going to take the charge, he’s going to guard the best players, he’s going to communicate at all times." Posey is also expected to play a key role defending Cleveland's James.

Home team is 11-4 ATS in the last 15 meetings.
Hornets are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games vs. Central Division.

Key Injuries - C Tyson Chandler (ankle) is doubtful.
F Peja Stojakovic (ankle) is doubtful.
F Julian Wright (ankle) is doubtful.

PROJECTED SCORE: 96
