Daily Sports Roundup

Saturday, January 23

Today in the Daily Sports Roundup: The Nuggets take on the Hornets, the Thunder try to stop the Cavaliers, and the Blue Devils do battle with the Tigers.

Tipping off on the hardwood . . .

The NBA offers up 10 games on Saturday, including New Orleans at Denver. The Nuggets had no trouble getting past the Clippers in their last game on Thursday night, cruising to a 105-85 home victory. Carmelo Anthony led the way with 28 points for Denver in that contest, while Kenyon Martin had 13 points and 14 rebounds. The Nuggets and Hornets last met December 18, with New Orleans scoring a 98-92 victory. Chris Paul poured in 30 points for New Orleans.

Making up the rest of the NBA's schedule for Saturday: Orlando at Charlotte, Philadelphia at Indiana, Sacramento at Miami, Portland at Detroit, Chicago at Houston, Minnesota at Milwaukee, Golden State at Phoenix, New Jersey at Utah, and Oklahoma City at Cleveland. The Cavaliers beat the Lakers 93-87 at home in their last game on Thursday night, with LeBron James scoring 37 points. Cavs guard Mo Williams is out for the next four to six weeks with a sprained shoulder.

The top ranked matchup on the college basketball schedule for Saturday has No. 7 Duke at No. 17 Clemson, with the Blue Devils (15-3 SU, 11-6 ATS) looking to bounce back from an 88-74 loss at North Carolina State in their last game on Wednesday night. Kyle Singler had 22 points for Duke in that contest, while Jon Scheyer was good for 21 points. The Tigers (15-4 SU, 9-7 ATS) fell 66-64 to Georgia Tech on Tuesday, with Derrick Favors tossing in 17 points in that defeat.

Taking a trip around the rink . . .

Finally, the National Hockey League has a dozen games on the schedule for Saturday, including a matinee matchup between the Senators and Bruins in Boston. Ottawa, which has won five games in a row, got past St. Louis 3-2 on Thursday night. Boston, losers of three straight games, fell 3-2 to Columbus on Thursday. The Bruins and Senators met in Boston on Monday afternoon as well, with Ottawa winning 5-2. Daniel Alfredsson had a hat trick for the Sens in the win.

Also on the ice on Saturday: Carolina at Philadelphia, Los Angeles at Detroit, the Rangers at Montreal, New Jersey at the Islanders, Toronto at Florida, Phoenix at Washington, Atlanta at Tampa Bay, Anaheim at St. Louis, Columbus at Minnesota, Buffalo at San Jose, and Chicago at Vancouver. The Blackhawks improved to 35-12-4 on the season with a 3-1 win in Calgary on Thursday night. Patrick Kane scored his 21st goal of the season in that victory for the Blackhawks.

Bettors' best friend: Today's wagering tips

Saturday, January 23

Lines to keep an eye on

The Blackhawks opened as -110 favorites over the Canucks and now that line can be found anywhere from -115 to -125.

Jacksonville State, Appalachian State and Montana all opened as picks in their Saturday college basketball matchups, but have been bet to 1-point favorites at some shops.

Who’s hot

Chauncey Billups – Averaging 23.2 ppg since returning from injury seven games ago.

Cornell Big Red – Shooting 41.9 percent from 3-point range this season and are 9-1 SU and 5-1 ATS in their last 10 games.

BYU Cougars – Riding a 14-game win streak and are 6-3 ATS in their last 10 outings.

Denver Nuggets – Gone 6-1 straight up and 3-2-2 ATS since Billups returned to the lineup.

Who’s not

Memphis Tigers – Failed to cover the spread in nine straight games and are 3-10 ATS this season.

Sacramento Kings – Dropped six in a row while going 1-8-1 ATS in their last 10.

Denver Pioneers – Lost two straight and six of their last seven ATS.

Jarome Iginla – Scored two points (zero goals) during Flames five-game losing streak with 16 shots on goal.

Key stat

1,419 – Number of days the Memphis Tigers had gone without losing a Conference USA game. The 64-game winning streak tied the longest in NCAA history, set by the Kentucky Wildcats from 1945-50. The UTEP Miners defeated the Tigers in Memphis Wednesday, 72-67, to hand the team its first conference loss since March 2, 2006. Memphis is an 8-point favorite at home versus Houston Saturday.

Injury that shouldn’t be overlooked

Mo Williams will be absent from the Cavaliers lineup for six weeks with a separated shoulder, and now backup point guard Delonte West will be shelved for a short time after breaking a finger on his shooting hand Thursday. Third-year player out of Texas, Daniel Gibson, will assume the starting role but Mike Brown said that LeBron James and Anthony Parker will also bring the ball up at times. Gibson has only seen 53 minutes of action in January and is averaging 16.7 minutes per game this season.

Games of the Day

Texas Longhorns at Connecticut Huskies (+2, 148)

Toronto Maple Leafs at Florida Panthers (-140, 6)

Chicago Blackhawks at Vancouver Canucks (-105, 5.5)

Notable Quotable

"These Colts are a superb football team, of course, and justifiably they’re the favorite. But you know what? They’ve still got to play the game. There is no guarantee they’re going to win. The guarantee will only come when it’s over because anything can happen.”

-- Former Jets quarterback Joe Namath told the Indianapolis Star when prompted for a guarantee in the AFC Championship game.

Tips and notes

- The East-West Shrine game is the NCAA’s longest running all-star game having been played since 1925 and affords college football bettors their first taste of action since the BCS National Championship. The East-West game is set for a 3 p.m. (ET) kickoff in Orlando, Fla., where temperatures are expected to be in the 70s. The East won last season’s matchup, 24-19, but the West took the three prior affairs with all the wins coming by no less than four points. The West was installed as 4.5-point favorites for Saturday’s game with a total of 43.5.

- The BYU Cougars are the best free throw shooting team in the country, connecting on 77.3 percent of their charity stripe attempts. And with the lofty spreads oddsmakers are giving them, the Cougs have to be one of the best because meaningless free throws at the conclusion of the game are usually needed for a cover. BYU’s opponent Saturday, San Diego State, ranks 344th in the nation in free throw percentage, hitting at a 59 percent clip.

- Joe Namath wasn’t willing to give a guarantee the Jets would win on Sunday, but a lesser degree of a guarantee was extended by the team’s merchandising department. New York is offering T-shirts, sweatshirts, hats and pennants on its retail website that have the words “AFC Champs” or a Super Bowl logo emblazoned on them. This could create bulletin board material for the Colts locker room.

Six-pack for Saturday

-- NBA's leading scorers right now are Carmelo Anthony, Lebron James, both at 29.7 ppg.

-- Long drive leader on the PGA Tour is Garth Mulroy (324.0 yards).

-- Underdogs are 29-13 vs spread in Horizon League games.

-- Road team is 32-12 vs spread in MAAC games this season.

-- Indiana Hoosiers are 3-3 in Big 11, will be favored Sunday against the Iowa Hawkeyes, all this with their PG out for year with an injury. Quite an improvement for a team that basically had to start from scratch.

-- University of New Orleans is dropping down to D-III in sports and will leave the Sun Belt Conference July 1st.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Saturday's List of 13: Nobody asked me, but..........

13) I had never seen Conan O'Brien on TV, other than commercials, so I tuned in Friday night to watch his last Tonight Show. He was classy on a night where he didn't have to be, taking the high road instead of bashing people who are paying him $32M to go away. Good for him.

12) His last show was nothing like October of 1980, when NBC cancelled David Letterman's 10am talkshow; the last one of those was choas, funny as hell, live TV gone mad. Letterman wasn't Letterman yet, he was where O'Brien is now, career-wise, a talent the networks didn't quite know what to do with. Now that O'Brien has enough money for four lifetimes, hope he finds the same career satisfaction Letterman has.

11) How does O'Brien keep his hair like that? It defies gravity.

10) For a long time, it was thought the New Orleans Saints were cursed because the Superdome had been built on ancient Cajun burial grounds; it took Drew Brees coming to Bourbon Street to make people forget crazy stuff like that. I'm really hoping the Saints win the Super Bowl.

9) Angels traded Garry Matthews Jr to the Mets Friday, but will still be paying most of his very large salary over next two years; Matthews will be the CF at Citi Field while Carlos Beltran rehabs his post-operative knee.

8) Somehow, the A's lost a minor league prospect Friday...to priesthood. Guy who hit 30+ homers in A ball LY quit baseball this week, and will go to a seminary in southern California in August. There are mixed opinions as to how great a prospect he was; Baseball America has him as the A's #8 prospect; some people have him higher, ESPN.com's Rob Neyer wasn't as sold on him. Why doesn't this stuff happen to the Bronx Bombers?

7) Its been 34 yrs since an Australian tennis player won Australian Open.

6) Rick Ankiel gets $3.25M for one year from the Royals; the way their pitching can get, they may need him to throw some before the year is over.

5) Kahlil Greene figures to be a super sub for the Rangers this season.

4) Wonder what the Chargers thought about Rex Ryan sending a game ball to former San Diego coach Marty Schottenheimer after Sunday's win?

3) There are no live broadcasts left on tape of Super Bowls I or II.

2) A woman in San Francisco was dating this high-powered executive, but he went back to his wife, so the girlfriend did what any wack job would do; she spent $250,000 on five billboards, showing her and him together, all to embarrass him and show people what a creep he is. There has to be better way of spending $250,000, but if it made her feel better, so be it.

1) For a while tonight, I felt bad for Conan O'Brien, since he's leaving when he obviously wishes he didn't have to. Then I remembered he's getting paid $32M to go away, and I stopped feeling bad for him.

Pick ‘n’ Roll: Today's best NBA bets
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Oklahoma City Thunder at Cleveland Cavaliers (-7.5, 189)

The Cavs were able to pull out a gritty win over the Lakers Thursday without starting point guard Mo Williams.

Delonte West took over at the point in the 93-87 victory but broke his left ring finger during the contest and will miss at least Saturday’s game versus Oklahoma City.

Cleveland’s backcourt injuries will allow Daniel Gibson to see minutes, but coach Mike Brown said that LeBron James and Anthony Parker will have to handle the ball as well.

"We may have to do it by committee," said Brown, who said there are other factors to consider. "One, is how long is [West] going to be out for? The second one is, knock on wood, what if Gib goes down? We have capable ballhandlers."

Expect the Thunder to provide steady pressure and put Gibson’s ball-handling skills to the test Saturday.

Oklahoma City has been tough on the road recently, winning at Atlanta and Minnesota this week while losing to Dallas by a point on Jan. 15. The Thunder have covered in three of their last four games away from home.

Pick: Thunder

Golden State Warriors at Phoenix Suns (-10, 237)

One certainty in playing back-to-back games in the NBA is that a team will be less than rested in the second leg having played the night before.

A bettor can view a B2B situation as either: the players won’t be as sharp so the offensive production will decrease or the players will be worn out so they won’t play much defense.

In this game, we are going with the latter reasoning because both already don’t play much defense and like to get up and down the floor.

The Suns (109.9 ppg) and Warriors (107.7 ppg) rank 1st and 2nd in the league in scoring while conversely, the two rank 29th and 30th in points surrendered. Phoenix yields 107.3 ppg and Golden State gives up 111.9 points to the opposition per outing.

The over is 9-1 in the Suns last 10 games versus the Western Conference and 9-3 during the last 12 meetings of this series. The last 10 times these high-powered offenses have met, neither team has scored fewer than 100 points and the average total is 241.0 ppg.

Pick: Over

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Celtic slide

The Boston Celtics have been a bit more banged up than most contenders this season. Glen "Big Baby" Davis, Marquis Daniels, Rasheed Wallace and even All-Star Paul Pierce have missed time with injuries.

But the one player the Celtics cannot contend without is Kevin Garnett. That was evident in last year's postseason and is evident again this season.

Garnett has not played since Dec. 28, missing nine games with an injury to his surgically repaired knee. The Celtics are 4-5 straight up and against the spread in that stretch, with the four wins against Toronto twice, at Miami in overtime and at hapless New Jersey. Boston has lost three straight home games.

"(I'm) being smart about injuries, so they don't get worse," Garnett told reporters Tuesday. "I think I learned that last year the hard way. I'm trying to be patient and actually listen."

Garnett's numbers aren't spectacular. He is averaging 15 points and 7.6 rebounds. But he is the team's defensive anchor and emotional leader. He practiced Tuesday and should return Friday vs. Portland, skipping Wednesday's game at Detroit.

Charlotte's web

The Charlotte Bobcats are starting to look like Larry Brown's 10th playoff team.

Brown's ability to maximize his talent, the emergence of Gerald Wallace as a borderline All-Star and the acquisition of Stephen Jackson have made the Bobcats a very dangerous team at home, the first step in the transition from pretender to contender.

Charlotte's 17-4 mark at Bobcats Arena is fourth-best in the NBA, trailing only conference finals participants the Los Angeles Lakers (23-3), Denver (18-3) and Cleveland (17-3). The Bobcats are 13-8 ATS at home this season.

Charlotte won the first five games of its season-high six-game homestand (3-2 ATS) entering Wednesday's game vs. Miami. The next test for the Bobcats will be whether they can compete as well on the road. Beginning with Friday's game in Atlanta, they play seven of their next eight away from home.

Against the spread, Charlotte is 11-7 in road games. However, this is its first extended road trip and includes stops in Denver and L.A., two places that are very tough to win.

Dethroned

Through the first two months of the season, there was not a better return on investment than the Sacramento Kings. After beating Denver at home on Dec. 28, the Kings were 14-16 overall and 18-10-2 ATS, surprising just about everyone except themselves.

The Kings figured out how to win that game without Tyreke Evans, but lost the next two without their rookie sensation, starting a tailspin that has seen them lose nine of 10 straight up while going 2-7-1 ATS.

The return of injured star guard Kevin Martin last week was supposed to give the Kings a boost but instead has created some acclimation issues. Beno Udrih, the team's best point guard, has seen his minutes reduced as coach Paul Westphal is playing Evans and Martin together.

The Kings still have both Florida stops remaining on their season-high six-game road trip, where they are looking for their first win and second cover. Their current slide has dropped them from first to ninth in the ATS standings (20-17-3).

In other words, the "Cowtown" team is no longer a cash cow.

On the schedule

Saturday, Jan. 23, Philadelphia at Indiana

There are three teams in the NBA with better records on the road than at home - Boston, Dallas and Philadelphia, which is 7-14 straight up but 13-8 ATS. Indiana has allowed at least 100 points in 13 of its last 14 games.

Monday, Jan. 25, Phoenix at Utah

On Wednesday, the Suns began a stretch where they play five of six at home. This is the only game on the road, where they have lost 11-of-12 straight up and 4-8 ATS. The Jazz may appear to be slipping, but they are 14-7 ATS at the Delta Center, which is still a tough home court.

Game of the day: Texas at UConn
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Texas Longhorns at Connecticut Huskies (+2, 148)

Top-ranked Texas (17-1) is looking to bounce back from its first loss of the season earlier in the week. Connecticut (12-6) recently snapped a three-game losing streak with its longtime coach on indefinite medical leave.

Both teams have something to prove today when the Huskies host the Longhorns (4 p.m. ET, CBS)

Bounce back opportunity

UConn plays its second game without head coach Jim Calhoun, on leave due to health concerns. The Huskies, led by longtime assistant George Blaney, snapped a three-game losing streak by handling St. John’s 75-59 on Wednesday.

Blaney said Wednesday the Huskies have responded well without their head coach.

"The players were good. They were very surprised, but they were very good, as I would expect they would be. It's (Jim's) team,” said Blaney. “He has shown them how to deal with adversity."

After winning the first 17 games of the season, Texas suffered its first setback on Monday, losing at No. 10 Kansas State 71-62. The Wildcats won by scoring at will in the paint – post defense has typically been a strength for the Longhorns – and holding Texas to just 35 percent shooting from the floor.

Depth charges

UConn has one of the top-producing backcourts in the nation, led by the electric Jerome Dyson (18.8 ppg, 5.1 apg, 4.9 rpg) and Kemba Walker (12.9 ppg, 5.9 apg, 4.0 rpg).

But the Huskies aren’t particularly deep. Dyson, Walker and Stanley Robinson (16.9 ppg) each average close to 35 minutes per game and two other starters average 28.9 and 30.3 mpg.

Texas, meanwhile, has nobody averaging more than 28 minutes. The Longhorns have a whopping 10 players averaging 12 minutes or more while in comparison UConn has six.

But Connecticut can bang, and Blaney says when the Huskies play as such, they can play with anybody.

"I was really pleased that we got into offense almost every time...if you run it full-speed, it makes it very difficult to defend,” Blaney said after the St. John’s win. “And if you run people into things, whether be into a defender, into a screen, into a referee - I don't care who you run them into, just run somebody into something - you're going to get open."

Battle in the paint

This has the makings of being a physical game.

Senior 6-7 swingman Damion James is the leader of Texas. He’s averaging 17.3 ppg and 11.0 rpg and has proven to be a tough matchup for any opponent.

James was the Oscar Robertson National Player of the Week for Jan. 19 as voted by the U.S. Basketball Writers Association. He averaged 25.5 points, 13.0 rebounds and 2.5 blocks per game in wins over Iowa State and Texas A&M.

Down low, 6-10, 290-pound Dexter Pittman (12.4 ppg, 6.6 rpg) will make it tough for the Huskies to slash through the lane which is one of the team’s best offensive attacks.

But in that regard, it is possible Blaney and UConn saw a chink in the armor during Kansas State’s victory.

Gavin Edwards, UConn’s 6-10 junior, has been the only reliable post presence this season (10.4 ppg).

While UConn has size in 7-footer Charles Okwandu and 6-11 Ater Majok, these players are considered raw and the team has had problems against opposition with good size. Texas, led by Pittman, is huge.

“I’m looking forward to the game because they have some talented seven-footers, so I have to go out there and play against seven-footers,” Pittman said Wednesday. “If I want to make a career out of this game, I have to go out there and show people that I can play against guys that tall.”

Closing time

One problem for the Huskies has been their inability to put teams away or hit big shots down the stretch in the big games. That isn’t lost on Blaney.

“We know we’re good and I think the kids know they’re good,” Blaney told the Journal Inquirer of Connecticut. “We’ve not played the full 40 minutes in almost every game this year, and that’s what we’re trying to correct.

“We can do it. We’ve seen it in games, we see it in practice. So it’s there, it’s just not there every possession.”

Meanwhile, Texas has shown the ability to use its depth to bury opponents. Fourteen of the team’s 17 wins have come by double-digit margins and six have been by 30 points or more.

“It’s definitely a big week for us,” UConn’s Walker said prior to the win over St. John’s. “Things could change if we get these two big wins.”

Other nuggets and trends

This is only Texas’ fourth road game and third out of the state of Texas. The Longhorns did survive a raucous Arkansas crowd for a 96-85 win on Jan. 5. Connecticut is 11-1 at home, its lone defeat coming at the hands of No. 13 Pittsburgh, 67-57.

UConn has not beaten a Top 25 team this season (0-4). Texas is 2-1.

UConn is 6-2 ATS in its last eight games.

Texas is 2-6 ATS in its last eight games vs. the Big East.

Ice picks: Today's best NHL bets
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Chicago Blackhawks at Vancouver Canucks (-105, 5.5)

The Canucks are reaching into the magic time machine to see if a wily veteran can provide some aid for the team’s recent defensive struggles.

With defenseman Sami Salo going down with a groin injury Thursday, Vancouver called up Nolan Baumgartner from the Manitoba Moose of the AHL.

The 33-year-old Baumgarter has appeared in 131 NHL games between the Capitals, Blackhawks, Penguins, Canucks and Stars but hasn’t played in the league since the 2006-07 campaign.

The Canucks defensive line is already depleted with Kevin Bieksa (foot) and Willie Mitchell (upper body) on the bench with injuries.

“A lot of good defensemen are on the sidelines and they're obviously tough to replace,” Christian Ehrhoff said. “I feel good playing a lot more minutes … it's a good challenge.”

More minutes for fewer quality players equates to tired legs. Vancouver has given up no less than two goals in the team’s last six games and is surrendering an average of 3.0 gpg during that span.

Pick: Over

Phoenix Coyotes at Washington Capitals (-210, 6)

The Coyotes are on the brink of an ownership change, but that doesn’t seem to be affecting the players.

Phoenix has won three of its last four games and seems to be playing with a chip on its shoulders with fans anticipating the organization’s financial problems to cause a late-season collapse.

"Everyone expected us to be giving away games," said forward Vernon Fiddler.

"We're pretty grounded here," Shane Doan told ESPN.com. "The one thing I've learned is to be patient and wait and see what happens."

What’s happening now is that the Coyotes are playing well consistently (only one three-game losing streak all season) and occupy the No. 4 spot in the Western Conference standings.

The Caps and Coyotes have not played this season, but Phoenix has taken four of the last five in the series including two straight.

As hot as Washington is right now, the hefty moneyline Phoenix has been given here is too much to pass up.

Pick: Coyotes

Toronto Maple Leafs at Florida Panthers (-140, 6)

The basics

The Toronto Maple Leafs have a record of 17-25-10, 14th in the Eastern Conference and are 2-6-1 in their last nine games.

“I’m very disappointed. It’s very frustrating, because this team in November proved it could play with everybody. We’ve lost our way and we have to get back on track,” Toronto General Manager Brian Burke told reporters.

The Florida Panthers are 21-21-9, 12th in the Eastern Conference with 51 points. They are 4-1-2 in their last seven games.

End of the road

Toronto is playing its final game of a five-game road trip and this will be its fourth game in six nights. At 8-15-5, the Maple Leafs have the second-worst road record in the Eastern Conference.

Florida has been unspectacular at home this season (9-8-6), but is 3-0-1 in its last four games at the BankAtlantic Center.

The home team has won three of the last four contests between Toronto and Florida.

Closing the close games

Toronto goaltender Jonas Gustavsson is 0-8 in overtime/shootouts this season.

"I haven't had a chance to win yet in OT, and that's kind of frustrating," said Gustavsson after Toronto’s most recent loss.

Four of the last nine meetings between Toronto and Florida have gone to overtime.

Toronto is 1-10 this season in extra time and the Panthers are 6-9.

Toothless cats?

The Florida Panthers have scored just two goals in their last three games, going under in each of those contests. They have allowed only four goals those games.

On top of that, leading scorer Nathan Horton left Thursday's game with a leg injury. His status is unknown for Saturday.

Steve Gorten of the South Florida Sun Sentinel points out that Panthers goaltender Tomas Vokoun has two shutouts and a .962 save percentage in January.

"He's been outstanding all year, but he's been very, very good lately," Coach Pete DeBoer told the the Sun Sentinel.

The Maple Leafs have gone over the total in three of their last four and the over is 5-2-1 in the last eight meetings between Toronto and Florida.

Chicago Blackhawks at Vancouver Canucks (-105, 5.5)

The basics

The late HNIC matchup features two of the West’s best.

The Chicago Blackhawks are second in the Western Conference with 74 points and a 35-12-4 record. The Blackhawks have won three of four and are on a 17-5-1 stretch.

The Vancouver Canucks are fifth in the West with a 30-18-2 record. The Canucks have won their last three games and are 14-4-2 in their last 20.

D-pleted

The Vancouver Canucks lost Sami Salo to a groin injury in their last game and will play Saturday’s game without Salo, Willie Mitchell, and Kevin Bieksa.

"Every year," centre Ryan Kesler told the Vancouver Sun. "Hopefully, we get a couple back pretty soon. Hopefully, Sami isn't too bad, but we have to keep pressing here.”

Vancouver will have to focus on preventing the Blackhawks from cashing in with the extra man. The Blackhawks have the third-best road power-play in the NHL at 27.2 percent.

The road is long

Saturday’s game will be Chicago’s fifth stop of a season-long eight game road-trip. They are 3-1-0, scoring 15 goals during the trip.

Vancouver is playing the second game of a critical four-game homestand. The Canucks head out on the road January 30 and will not play their next home game until March 13 - a fourteen-game span.

Net news

Chicago has two goaltenders playing very well.

Antti Niemi is 13-3-1 with a 1.85 goals against average and four shutouts. Cristobal Huet is 22-9-3 with a 2.24 goals against average and four shutouts. It looks like Niemi will get the call on Saturday.

"We liked what we saw today," Quenneville said after Thursday’s win in Calgary. "He's (Niemi is) playing well. It's tough to take that away."

Chicago has gone under the total in four of its last six games, while the over is 3-1 in Vancouver’s last four.
