Daily Sports Roundup

Wednesday, February 11

Today in the Daily Sports Roundup: The Tar Heels and Blue Devils renew their ACC rivalry, while the NBA offers up several matchups between league powers.

Tipping Off in the NBA

The NBA offers up a dozen games on Wednesday night, including several big clashes between the league's top teams. Leading off the slate of marquee matchups are Denver at Orlando and Phoenix at Cleveland, both at 7:00pm ET. After that it's Atlanta at Detroit and Boston at New Orleans, followed by the Lakers at Utah in a Western clash; the Jazz were upset by Golden State Sunday.

Elsewhere, the Spurs will be gunning for a road win in Toronto, with Washington at Charlotte, and Memphis at Philadelphia. The Pacers will take their terrible road record into a game in Milwaukee, while Sacramento travels to Houston, and Portland hosts Oklahoma City. Finally, the Knicks will continue their Western swing in Los Angeles against the Clippers, who have lost three of their past five.

The March to Madness

No. 1 Connecticut and No. 2 Oklahoma are both in action on Wednesday night, but the marquee college hoops matchup has No. 3 North Carolina playing on the road against No. 6 Duke. The Tar Heels enter this game at 21-2 SU and 10-12 ATS, and they've won seven straight games. The Blue Devils are 20-3 SU and 11-10-1 ATS, and they've lost twice to ranked teams in the past two weeks (Wake Forest and Clemson). The ACC rivals split their two meetings last season.

Top-ranked UConn will host No. 23 Syracuse on Wednesday, while the No. 2 Sooners will be on the road to take on Baylor. As well, it'll be No. 7 Wake Forest at N.C. State, Tulsa at No. 8 Memphis, and No. 14 Xavier at Dayton. Finally, No. 20 Purdue will get a visit from Penn State at Mackey Arena; the Boilermakers were held under 50 points in a 66-48 loss to Illinois in their last game on Sunday.

A Trip Around the Rink

The Stars continue to climb the Western Conference standings, and they'll be looking to knock off a division rival on Wednesday night when they host the Coyotes. Dallas improved to 26-19-7 on the season with a 4-1 win over Nashville on Sunday; Marty Turco made 26 saves in that victory. Phoenix is at just 24-25-5 after getting blasted by Carolina 7-2 last time out; they've lost six straight games.

There are eight other games on the ice on Wednesday, including Washington at the Rangers and San Jose at Pittsburgh. As well, the last-place Islanders will be in tough when they play on the road in New Jersey, while Chicago will try to pick up a win in Atlanta, Buffalo plays host to Ottawa, Colorado is at Minnesota, and Montreal travels to Edmonton. Finally, the Ducks will be at home to host Calgary.

Rounding Out the Slate

The World Baseball Classic gets underway in less than a month, and the oddsmakers generally have the United States and the Dominican Republic pegged as the favorites to win the tournament right now. Other top contenders are Japan, Cuba, and Venezuela, although the Venezuelans' chances took a hit this week when it was reported that ace Johan Santana wouldn't be participating

Six-pack for Wednesday

According to Forbes Magazine, the six worst cities to live in......

6) Flint, MI-- General Motors employs 10% as many people in Flint as they did 30 years ago- times are tough there.

5) Modesto, CA-- Have the highest car theft rate in whole country.

4) Cleveland-- They get lot of snow, its cold there, and their sports teams always disappoint. As long as Lebron doesn't leave........

3) Chicago-- Sales tax is 10.3%, five of last nine Illinois governors have been charged with a crime. There is potential for Olympics in 2016, which would probably also be Obama's last year in office.

2) Memphis-- Sales tax is 9.3%, crime rate is twice that of NYC, so they're lucky FedEx is here- they employ a lot of people.

1) Stockton, CA-- Had a 9.5% foreclosure rate last year, only 15% of adults there have a college degree.

Wednesday's List of 13: Random thoughts on a winter day......

13) NBA.com now posts referees for that night's games at 9am every morning; pretty sure thats new, fallout from the Donaghy scandal.

12) HORSE participants at All-Star Weekend are OJ Mayo, Kevin Durant and former Sun Joe Johnson. My three guesses were Lamar Odom, Ray Allen and Manu Ginobili, but it should be a fun event to watch, no matter who is in it.

11) I miss the midnight Big Monday games; this is first time in over twenty years ESPN hasn't had them. Not sure why they stopped; it is hard to believe they couldn't find schools who would like some TV exposure, no matter what time of day. Hell, Boise State played out in Hawai'i at 11pm local time (4am EST) back in November.

10) Dayton has a big game with Xavier Wednesday; they're 19 for 33 from arc in last three games, after being 0-11 the game before that.

9) How does Loyola, MD defend the arc so well? In their last three games, Greyhound opponents are 1-26 beyond the arc; in their last six games, they're 12-73. Loyola still lost those last three games, but offense seems to be their problem more than defending people.

8) Sacramento Kings are rumored to lose $25M this season; how can this be? Maloof family has long been rumored to want to move team to Las Vegas, but if they're lousy like they are now, they won't draw any better in Vegas than in Sacramento. Will be interesting to see if the NBA salary cap goes down next year, for the first time in years.

7) Last week, Lebron James scored 52 points in New York, with nine assists and 11 rebounds.....48 hours after Kobe Bryant scored 61 in a game in the same building, where he had three assists, zero rebounds. If you were an NBA player, who would you rather play with?

6) Tremendous Florida-Kentucky game last night, but what was the Hodge kid on Florida thinking, stepping on arm of a Kentucky player as he laid on the floor? Don't kids know these games are on TV, and televised games have instant replay? He got ejected with 16:12 left, and his absence cost Florida the win. Nice move.

5) Knicks had 95 points after three quarters Tuesday.........and they were down 10 to Golden State. They're not good, but they're fun to watch. It was good to hear Mike Breen saying how Jamal Crawford is a terrific person and all the Knicks liked him; lot of times when a guy gets traded, he becomes a non-person to his old team. Not so here.

4) Spring training starts Saturday; you're telling me Manny Ramirez, Adam Dunn and Bobby Abreu aren't at least a little bit nervous? Not to mention Orlando Hudson, a terrific defensive second baseman.

3) Memo to any people who testify before Congress: Tell the truth.

2) Duke-North Carolina basketball isn't best rivalry in college sports, as some will suggest Wednesday night; Auburn-Alabama and about five other college football rivalries are a lot more intense. You think if Coach K wasn't at Duke, this would still be a great rivalry? No way.

1) It is supposed to be 52 degrees here in Albany Wednesday; if you live in a warm weather climate, you've never had the chance to revel in a gorgeous 50+-degree day in February, when it feels like life has started all over again. It sounds corny, but it is tremendous. Would I rather not know about this? Of course, but we take what we can......

Pick ‘n’ Roll: NBA bets

New York Knicks at Los Angeles Clippers (-3, 218)

Zach Randolph has had Feb. 11th circled on his calendar since he was traded from New York. It will be the first time Randolph gets to play against his former club.

Randolph has already had more success in L.A. than he had during his entire stopover in New York. In his last two starts, Randolph has averaged 30 points and has led L.A. to back-to-back wins over the Grizzlies and Hawks.

“It was one of them nights,” Randolph told reporters after scoring 35 points against Memphis Friday.

He scored 25 points the next night against Atlanta, but Al Thornton took center stage scoring a season-high 31 points.

The Knicks, meanwhile, have lost five straight overall.

Pick: Clippers

Phoenix Suns at Cleveland Cavaliers (-7.5, 204.5)

The more you watch the Suns the more you think that the team needs to be blown apart. A day after beating the Pistons in Detroit the Suns were spanked by the 76ers. Phoenix didn’t look ready to compete against Philly and coach Terry Porter blamed it on fatigue.

“Back-to-backs are tough, especially against a team that has a lot of athletic energy and likes to run,” he said after the loss.

Amare Stoudemire’s poor play might have more to do with trade rumors than tired legs. The big man knows his name is being tossed around in trade talk.

“I’ve been hearing everything that’s out there. I tried to put it aside,” he said. “I’d love to stay and be a Phoenix Sun, but it’s really not my decision.”

The Cavs, meanwhile, are one of the most consistent teams in the league and hope to avenge their first home loss with a serious beat down at Phoenix’s expense.

Pick: Cavs

Tips and Trends

#22 Syracuse at #1 Connecticut [ESPN | 7 PM ET]

Syracuse: The Orange will be looking to end a four-game road losing streak in a place where they have never won. They are 0-3 all-time at Gampel Pavilion and will also be counting on their ailing center to defend arguably the best big man in the country in UConn's Hasheem Thabeet. Arinze Onuaku is dealing with a nagging knee injury, which has slowed him down dramatically. Onuaku is averaging just 5.4 points in his last five games, less than half of his season average.

Syracuse is 1-4 ATS in its last 5 games overall.
The UNDER is 10-4 in the last 14 meetings.

Key Injuries - NONE

PROJECTED SCORE: 65 (UNDER - Total Play of the Day)

UConn (-12, O/U 148): The Huskies have won 12 straight games but have surprisingly lost to Syracuse two of the last three times they were ranked #1. They held Michigan to only 38.6 percent shooting in a 69-61 win on Saturday thanks to Thabeet, who totaled 17 points, 12 rebounds and six blocks. “He changes the game completely for us,” UConn guard A.J. Price said. “I don’t know where we’d be without him.”

UConn is 4-1 ATS in its last 5 games overall.
The UNDER is 6-2 in UConn's last 8 games overall.

Key Injuries - NONE

PROJECTED SCORE: 77

#3 North Carolina at #5 Duke [ESPN | 9 PM ET]

North Carolina (-1.5, O/U 157): Tyler Hansbrough and Danny Green can become just the second pair of teammates ever to win all four visits to Cameron Indoor Stadium by earning another victory there on Wednesday. Tim Duncan and Rusty LaRue of Wake Forest were the first teammates to accomplish the feat and remain the only two players to go 4-for-4 at Cameron. “You said it right there - it’s winning,” Hansbrough said. “Any time you beat them, here or there, it means a lot.”

North Carolina is 8-2 ATS in the last 10 meetings at Duke.
The OVER is 5-1 in the last 6 meetings.

Key Injuries - G Marcus Ginyard (foot) is OUT.

PROJECTED SCORE: 81 (Side Play of the Day)

Duke: There is obviously a lot on the line in this game, including first place in the ACC, which could eventually translate into the top seed in the conference tournament and a potential #1 seed in the Big Dance. However, the last national championship teams for each school lost the first meeting before going on to cut down the nets. “It usually takes 40 minutes to beat us here,” Blue Devils guard Jon Scheyer said. “That’s something we take pride in - especially at home, with our crowd as good as they are, especially against Carolina. It’s going to take 40 minutes of effort and playing sharp.”

Underdog is 12-3 ATS in the last 15 meetings.
The UNDER is 21-6 in Duke's last 27 games overall.

Key Injuries - NONE

PROJECTED SCORE: 76
