Daily Sports Roundup

Thursday, January 22

Kevin Garnett and the Boston Celtics will be looking to pick up a win against Dwight Howard's Orlando Magic on Thursday. Here's your Daily Sports Roundup.

The Gridiron Spotlight

The Steelers are the AFC champions this season, but how do the Vegas oddsmakers like their chances of duplicating that feat next year? Well, the (very) early line has them listed second at 4/1 odds to be the 2009/10 AFC champs, behind the Patriots at 7/2 odds. The Colts are next at 9/2, followed by the Ravens at 11/2, the Titans at 15/2, and the Chargers at 8/1. The second tier of contenders are the Dolphins (12/1), Jets (14/1), Jaguars (15/1), and Broncos (18/1), with the Texans at 20/1, and the Bills behind them on the list at just 25/1.

Longshots for next season include the Browns at 30/1 and the Bengals at 35/1, while the Chiefs and Raiders sit down in the odds basement at 50/1 right now.

Other Notable Events

The Magic are riding a seven-game winning streak heading into Thursday night's marquee matchup with the Celtics, and they've managed to pick up the victory in nine of their past 10 games to sit at 33-8 straight-up and 28-12-1 against-the-spread on the season. However, when these two teams met back on December 1 the Celtics cruised to a 107-88 win as an 8.5-point favorite on their own court.

The second game of the night's NBA doubleheader is a projected mismatch between the Wizards and Lakers in Los Angeles. Still, lowly Washington did manage to hold their own in the last meeting between these teams, a 106-104 Lakers road win back on December 5; the Wizards had been 12-point underdogs.

The Rest of the Schedule

A Big Ten battle between No. 18 Purdue and No. 21 Minnesota highlights the college hoops schedule for Thursday. The Boilermakers (14-4 SU, 7-8 ATS) knocked off Iowa 75-53 in their last game, while the Golden Gophers (16-2 SU, 9-4 ATS) are coming off a 74-65 loss to Northwestern. As well, No. 12 Georgetown will take on West Virginia, No. 13 UCLA meets Washington State, No. 16 Butler plays Wisc-Green Bay, and No. 23 Gonzaga travels to Pepperdine.

News from the Wire

Islanders goaltender Rick DiPietro and Blue Jackets goaltender Pascal Leclaire are both gone for the season; DiPietro hasn't been able to recover from his knee injury, while Leclaire will have ankle surgery . . . Steelers wide receiver Hines Ward is still on track to play in the Super Bowl despite his knee injury, which has been reported as a slightly sprained MCL . . . Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger is also a little banged up, but will be behind center next weekend.

A Peek at the Future

Friday's NBA slate features 12 games, including Dallas at Detroit, Houston at Indiana, New Jersey at San Antonio, and Cleveland at Golden State . . . the PGA Tour continues its latest stop this weekend, the Bob Hope Classic at PGA West in La Quinta, California . . . No. 3 Connecticut will take on No. 19 Notre Dame in college hoops action on Saturday, with Maryland traveling to play No. 2 Duke.

Thursday's List of 13: Trying to stay warm.....yeah, right

13) Only 24 days until pitchers and catchers, which here in the cold part of the country, means that winter could be over in a month or so after that. In reality, we're still looking at eight weeks of winter to go. Thank God for small favors-- it could get above freezing here Friday for first time in at least two weeks.......

12) Cole Hamels got $20.3M for three years from the Phillies; good deal for both sides.

11) Chiefs' GM Scott Pioli is Bill Parcells' son-in-law, so you figure that since Arizona offensive coordinator Todd Haley worked with Parcells in Dallas, he has inside track to be Chiefs' coach, should Pioli decide to pull the plug on Herm Edwards, which he should.

10) Its a lot of fun listening to Dick Enberg broadcast tennis.

9) Jeff Kent is a Hall of Famer, despite his being a surly guy; writers vote for this stuff, which is why it took Jim Rice so long to get in. If you look at Kent's numbers as they rank with other second basemen, it is fairly obvious he belongs in Cooperstown.

8) I could buy every Bowflex gadget advertised on TV, and I'd never, ever look like the guy on their TV commercial. I'd probably screw up my back just setting up the equipment.

7) Rex Ryan is one of those guys who looks lot different when he has a hat on-- I saw him at his Jets' news conference, and at first, I didn't know who he was. Ryan spent of time in Baltimore, where they had different QB every year; now he has Favre's soap opera on his plate.

6) SI.com has a great survey about college football recruiting; in the last five years, state of Florida has produced 981 scholarship players, while Vermont has produced just one. Must be all that maple syrup.

5) Every time I hear annoying pitchman Billy Mays on TV, screaming about whatever product he is shilling for this week, only one thing is in my mind-- how fast can I hit the damn mute button......

4) I'm thinking the early returns on new South Carolina hoop coach Darrin Horn are excellent; Gamecocks play a fun style to both play and watch, and they're getting better as the season goes on.

3) Disappointing news from Alabama, where injury-plagued Ronald Steele has called it a career with the Crimson Tide; once of the finest prospects in the country, multiple knee/foot injuries ruined his career which is too bad, and also why it is important for these kids to get an education while in school, so they have something to fall back on in the event something like this happens.

2) Clemson lost their 54th straight game at North Carolina, the worst record of any D-I team in another gym. Brown has lost 52 in a row at Princeton, but with Tigers' recent struggles, you'd think that streak is going to end soon. When Clemson led by 15 in second half last year, then lost in double OT, you got idea they might never win at UNC.

1) Arizona State won 51-45 at Arizona, getting benefit of marginal at best illegal screen call on Jordan Hill in last 0:20, when Arizona had ball down two points. If Lute Olson was still coaching Arizona, no way is that ever called in Tucson, but that's how refereeing is.

Boston Celtics at Orlando Magic [TNT | 8 PM ET]

Celtics: Boston handed Orlando its worst loss of the season back on December 1st, holding the Magic to just 5-of-26 shots from beyond the 3-point arc in a 107-88 rout. The Celtics have dealt with some adversity following an NBA-record 27-2 start - dropping seven of nine at one point - but they are riding a six-game winning streak into Orlando. “Every night we play, the team has us circled - the trick is that we have to circle them back,” Boston head coach Doc Rivers said. “If we can pull that off, then we can be really good. We’re playing for home-court every night. Doesn’t matter who the opponent is. And that’s key.”

Celtics are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 road games.
The UNDER is 10-3 in Boston's last 13 games as an underdog.

Key Injuries - G Tony Allen (ankle) is OUT.

PROJECTED SCORE: TBD

Magic (-4.5, O/U 192.5): Orlando has matched its best start ever through 41 games following a perfect 4-0 West Coast road trip. The Magic have won seven straight games overall and are 2-2 in four meetings with Boston since the acquisition of Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen, proving they can play on this elite level. However, Orlando point guard Jameer Nelson said he feels the title is still separating them at this point. “They’re a great team, we’re a good team,” Nelson said. “We’re trying to get to where they are.”

Orlando is 6-0 ATS in its last 6 games overall.
Home team is 21-6 ATS in the last 27 meetings.

Key Injuries - F Mickael Pietrus (wrist) is OUT.

PROJECTED SCORE: TBD



Washington Wizards at Los Angeles Lakers [TNT | 10:30 PM ET]

Wizards: Washington split the first two games of a tough four-game road trip that concludes in LA and Portland. The Wizards bounced back from a 119-98 loss at Golden State on Monday by beating Sacramento 110-107 on Wednesday. Gilbert Arenas stayed behind to rehab his knee, and interim head coach Ed Tapscott said he wasn't worried about overlooking the first two opponents on this trip. “You can’t,” Tapscott said. “You can only take them one game at a time and play the game that’s on your schedule. That’s what we’ll do.”

Wizards are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games overall.
The UNDER is 9-2 in Washington's last 11 road games.

Key Injuries - NONE

PROJECTED SCORE: TBD

Lakers (-15.5, 206.5): Five of the last seven meetings with Washington have been decided by six points or less, including two that went to overtime. It's also hard to imagine LA taking the Wizards lightly after getting a brief scare from the Clippers on Wednesday night. The Lakers led just 58-55 at halftime before pulling away in the second half thanks to the best game of Andrew Bynum's young career. Bynum scored a career-high 42 points and pulled down 15 rebounds in a 108-97 victory.

Lakers are 3-1 ATS in their last 4 games overall.
The UNDER is 14-3 in LA's last 17 Thursday games.

Key Injuries - F Luke Walton (foot) has returned.
G Jordan Farmar (knee) is OUT.

PROJECTED SCORE: TBD

Pick ‘n’ Roll: NBA bets
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Boston Celtics at Orlando Magic

Orlando has certainly been magical lately.

The Magic are 9-1 straight up (SU) and 8-2 against the spread (ATS) in their last 10 overall.

In fact, they have emerged as a legitimate contender in the East. Even Celtics coach Doc Rivers is impressed by the Magic.

Right now, theres nobody in the NBA playing better than Orlando, Rivers recently told reporters.

The Magic have been equally impressive at home. They have the league's fourth best home mark and are 11-0 in their last 12 and 13-6 overall in Orlando.

Even though the Magic are currently leading the conference, a victory over the Celtics could propel the club to another level.

“Until you beat a team, there's that thought you can't get over the hump”, an NBA scout told reporters. “Thursday could be a big night for Orlando.”

The Celtics, meanwhile, are 2-3 ATS in their last five road games and are just 9-11 ATS overall.

Pick: Orlando



Washington Wizards at Los Angeles Lakers

Are the Lakers good enough to beat Washington? Yes, definitely.

Are they good enough to cover such a hefty spread? Definitely not.

L.A., at 32-8, is one of the best clubs in the league. But they haven't been consistent against the number, especially at the Staples Center.

The Lakers are just 11-13 ATS at home. They have failed to cover the spread in three of their last five versus sub-.500 clubs.

In their last home game against a losing club, the Lakers narrowly beat the New York Knicks 116-114 but failed to cover the 13-point spread.

The Wizards, meanwhile, are 2-17 SU on the road but are a decent 8-11 ATS in that period.

Pick: Wizards

West Virginia at #14 Georgetown [ESPN | 7 PM ET]

West Virginia: The Mountaineers are struggling to find their offense, as they are averaging just 56.7 points per game in their last three on poor 34.3 shooting from the field. However, they won twice during this stretch. “It’s about doing the right thing all the time. It’s not about doing the right thing some of the time,” West Virginia head coach Bob Huggins said. “We’re just going to have to keep working to get better.” The Mountaineers have dropped three of four games against ranked teams this season.

West Virginia is 0-4 ATS in its last 4 games overall.
The UNDER is 7-3 in West Virginia's last 10 games overall.

Key Injuries - NONE

PROJECTED SCORE: TBD

Georgetown (-6.5, O/U 131.5): Five of the Hoyas' previous six opponents were ranked 13th or higher, capped by a meeting with #2 Duke last Saturday. That game resulted in a tough 76-67 loss to the Blue Devils and followed four games against conference foes who were all ranked in the Top 10 when they played them. Now Georgetown is ready to get back to business in league play. “It’s a non-conference game in the middle of a very tough conference schedule,” Hoyas head coach John Thompson III said. “It’s a very disappointing loss for a lot of different reasons, but we have to move on.”

Home team is 6-2 ATS in the last 8 meetings.
The UNDER is 14-5 in Georgetown's last 19 Thursday games.

Key Injuries - G Joe Mazzulla (shoulder) is OUT.

PROJECTED SCORE: TBD
