    Daily Sports Roundup

    Sunday, February 21

    Today in the Daily Sports Roundup: The United States meets Canada on the ice, while Duke takes on Virginia Tech, and the Sprint Cup Series races at Auto Club.

    Tipping off on the hardwood . . .

    The NBA offers up nine games on Sunday, with Boston at Denver, San Antonio at Detroit, Memphis at New Jersey, Houston at New Orleans, Oklahoma City at Minnesota, Atlanta at Golden State, Sacramento at Phoenix, Utah at Portland, and Cleveland at Orlando. The Cavs, who reinforced themselves by picking up Antawn Jamison at the trade deadline, had their lengthy winning streak stopped by the Nuggets on Thursday. The Cavs and Magic last met on February 11 in Cleveland, with LeBron James tossing in 32 points in his team's 115-106 victory.

    There are two ranked matchups on the college basketball schedule for Sunday, with No. 9 Ohio State at No. 11 Michigan State, and No. 3 Villanova at No. 19 Pittsburgh. As well, No. 14 Wisconsin hosts Northwestern, and No. 6 Duke gets a visit from Virginia Tech. The Blue Devils (22-4 SU, 16-8-1 ATS) won their fifth straight game last time out, beating Miami 81-74; Duke is now 14-0 SU and 13-3 ATS at home. The Hokies (21-4 SU, 10-8-1 ATS) have also won five straight games. Virginia Tech got past Wake Forest by a score of 87-83 on Tuesday night.

    Taking a trip around the rink . . .

    The final games of the preliminary round of the men's Olympic hockey event will be played on Sunday, with Sweden vs. Finland, Russia vs. the Czech Republic, and Canada vs. the United States. The Canadians got a tough game from Switzerland on Thursday night, needing a shootout to secure a 3-2 victory; they need to beat the undefeated Americans on Sunday to finish in top spot in their pool. The Russians were shocked 2-1 by Slovakia in a shootout in their second game of the tourney Thursday night, with Alexei Morozov scoring their lone goal.

    Roaring around the track . . .

    Finally, the Sprint Cup Series stages its second race of the season on Sunday, with the drivers taking the track in the Auto Club 500 at Auto Club Speedway in Fontana. Jimmie Johnson, who won the Pepsi 500 at Auto Club back in October, is listed as the 7/2 Vegas favorite for Sunday, with Jeff Gordon behind him on the list at 7/1 odds. Defending-champion Matt Kenseth and Carl Edwards then sit at 8/1 odds to visit victory lane, with Tony Stewart at 10/1, and Kyle Busch at 11/1. Jamie McMurray, coming off a victory in the Daytona 500, is farther back at 40/1.

      Bettor's best friend: Sunday's wagering tips

      Lines to keep an eye on

      Villanova opened as a 1-point favorite over No. 21 Pittsburgh but that spread quickly jumped to 2 points in favor of the No. 3-ranked Wildcats. Nova has covered the last two in this series.

      The total for the Cavs-Magic game opened at 196.5 and can be found as low as 194.5 now. Cleveland has played to five straight overs and the last five in this series have gone over.

      The Spurs-Pistons total has dropped from an opener of 187.5 to 186. The under is 8-2 in the last 10 games of this series.

      The Kings-Suns total plummeted from its opener of 218 to 216.5 shortly after appearing on the board. The last three games between this two have gone under and Phoenix has played to seven straight unders.

      Weather to watch

      Rain, a wind chill of 50 degrees and wind gusts from 25-30 mph created poor playing conditions at the WGC-Accenture Match Play Championship in Marana, Ariz., on Saturday.

      Sunday’s 36-hole final match is scheduled to begin at 7:40 a.m. but the semifinal round between Camilo Villegas and Paul Casey must be completed first and they will tee off at 7:10 a.m. A 30 percent chance of showers is constant until 10 a.m. The wind is expected to kick up to 10-13 mph around noon and the chance of precipitation returns to 30 percent around 1 p.m. for the remainder of the day.

      A snow storm is forecasted to hit the Midwest Saturday night and through Sunday morning. The inclement weather is expected to bring ice and 2-4 inches of snow by Sunday morning which could create traveling problems for some teams. Some states are expected to be in the 4-8 inches of snow range by Monday.

      The Thunder played in New York on Saturday night and then had to fly to Minnesota for a game Sunday. If their travel plans get delayed at all they could be jetlagged for the game or it might be postponed all together.

      Flights out of Chicago, Milwaukee and Kansas City on Sunday night could be delayed or possibly cancelled and especially early Monday.

      Who’s hot

      The Jazz are 16-2 SU and 13-2-3 ATS over their last 18 games.

      Virginia Tech has won five straight and eight of its last 10, and is getting 13 points at Duke.

      Who’s not

      Villanova has failed to cover the spread in four of its last five games.

      The Grizzlies are 2-8 SU and ATS over their last 10 games.

      Key stat

      11.1 – Average number of assists dished out by Jazz point guard Deron Williams over the last 10 games.

      Injury that shouldn’t be overlooked

      The Grizzlies bolstered their lineup defensively after acquiring Ronnie Brewer during the NBA trading frenzy. In his first game with the team Friday, Brewer partially tore his hamstring and will be out an indefinite period of time. Memphis gave up a future first-round pick for the former Arkansas Razorback. The Grizz are laying 4.5 points in New Jersey on Sunday.

      Games of the day

      Cleveland Cavaliers at Orlando Magic (-2, 194.5)

      Boston Celtics at Denver Nuggets (-4, 198)

      Notable quotable

      "I don't like losing, I think, more than anything else. I believe I can play this game pretty good. I like this format. As you said, my mental toughness is pretty strong, it's one of the key parts of my game.”

      -- PGA tour member Ian Poulter said about why he is such a good match play player.

      Tips and notes

      - Apparently some of the Celtics were unhappy about trading Eddie House away for Nate Robinson. Doc Rivers said, “I didn’t think we needed to make changes” and Ray Allen said “I didn’t think we were bad.” Robinson is expected to be a scorer for Boston, the same role House had. Rivers also mentioned Robinson was already “lobbying for playing time.” It will be interesting to see how Robinson fits in to the Celtics mix.

      - Antawn Jamison said he was “willing to sacrifice numbers, minutes, starting” if he could win a championship with Cleveland. He didn’t start in his Cavs debut Friday, went 0-12 from the field and played 26 minutes. Jamison said on Thursday that the biggest obstacle on the new team would be learning the terminology and when to cut. Clearly, it will take some time for Jamison to adjust to his new surroundings and Cleveland is in jeopardy of dropping three straight Sunday.

      - Ian Poulter won his WGC-Accenture semifinal match on Saturday after 12 holes which means he got an afternoon’s rest before he has to play in the 36-hole championship round Sunday. The other two players are still tied through 23 holes and will determine a winner Sunday morning. Poulter was Nick Faldo’s captain’s pick for the last Ryder Cup because of his match play success, where he is 17-7 in his career, and will be well-rested heading into Sunday.

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

          Sacramento Kings at Phoenix Suns (-11.5, 216.5)

          Another trade deadline has come and gone, and Amare Stoudemire is still a member of the Phoenix Suns.

          It seems like every February, Stoudemire’s name is at the top of the trade-rumor pyramid. That uncertainty is nothing new to the athletic 6-foot-10 forward, who scored 22 points and grabbed eight rebounds in an 88-80 win over the Atlanta Hawks as 4-point home favorites Friday night.

          "This gives us our best opportunity to (make the playoffs)," Suns guard Steve Nash told The Arizona Republic about hanging on to Stoudemire. "We all love having Amare on this team so it's good news."

          Stoudemire, whose expiring contract is a cause for concern with the Suns, seems to pick up his play following these trade scares.

          Last season, he averaged more than 23 points per game in February – more than two points better than his season average of 21.4. The year before that, he was the second-highest scoring player in the month of February, behind LeBron James with 29.3 points per game.

          Bettors should expect this most recent trade balk to spark another fire under Stoudemire, especially against a Kings team that he dropped 30 points and nine rebounds on earlier in the month.

          Pick: Phoenix


          San Antonio Spurs at Detroit Pistons (+5, 186)


          The San Antonio Spurs caught a big break in the schedule when their season-long, eight-game road trip was broken up by the NBA All-Star Weekend. But, after falling 106-94 to the Philadelphia 76ers Friday, it appears the break wasn’t long enough to recharge the Spurs’ batteries.

          San Antonio opened the second half of the season with a shaky 90-87 win over the Indiana Pacers Wednesday, failing to cover as 4.5-point road chalk. Then it came up short again versus Philly, losing outright and against the spread as a 3.5-point road favorite.

          “We were very optimistic about this trip,” Manu Ginobili told reporters following Friday’s loss. “We were hoping to keep building.

          “This one hurts.”

          Against the Sixers, the Spurs shot just 41 percent from the field while Tim Duncan and Tony Parker combined for only 12 points. Richard Jefferson also struggled, scoring only eight points and going 0-for-2 from outside.

          San Antonio made just five of its 21 attempts from beyond the arc and are 12-for-45 (27 percent) from 3-point range in the past two games since the All-Star break.

          Those weary legs will be itching to get home Sunday.

          Pick: Detroit

            Cleveland Cavaliers at Orlando Magic (-2, 194.5)

            Rough debut


            Recently-acquired Antawn Jamison got off to an utterly dismal start with the Cavaliers Friday night. In his debut with the Eastern Conference’s top team (a surprising 110-93 loss at Charlotte), the former Washington Wizard scored a mere two points and missed all 12 of his field-goal attempts in 26 minutes

            “I rushed a couple shots and I had a few blocked,” Jamison explained. “I couldn't get into a rhythm. It was one of those nights that will never happen again, I can promise you that.”

            Addition has been subtraction for the Cavs (43-13, 28-27-1 ATS) over the past two games. Mo Williams returned from a shoulder injury after the All-Star break and Cleveland promptly lost its first game in 14 outings, suffering a 118-116 home overtime loss to Denver. Williams is averaging 10 points in 22 minutes of play for two games since returning.

            Defense has also been an issue, as the Cavs have allowed 100 points in four of their last five games.

            “They did what they wanted to do offensively,” Cleveland coach Mike Brown said of the Bobcats. “That is not how we play. We've been doing that lately, and that is the disappointing thing and embarrassing to play that defense. That is something we have to get straight.”

            Full Nelson

            Oft-injured Magic point guard Jameer Nelson returned from arthroscopic knee surgery on December 21 and now he is starting to play like he is 100 percent. Nelson has scored in double figures in six of his last seven outings and he his assist-to-turnover ratio for the month of February is 2.8 to 1.

            Although Orlando (37-19, 28-27-1 ATS) lost to the Mavericks 95-85 at home Friday night, Nelson contributed 16 points on 8-for-15 shooting to go along with six assists.

            Armed with a clean bill of health, Nelson talked afterward about his new mentality. “I attack the basket to go to score, and if they come, I throw to the big fella (Dwight Howard).”

            Prior engagements

            The Cavs earned nine-point victories in each of the previous two meetings between the teams this season. On November 11, the visiting Cavs rolled to a 102-93 victory as 1-point underdogs. Earlier this month, Cleveland hosted the Magic and prevailed 115-106 as a 6-point favorite. In that February 11 encounter, the Cavs had 28 assists to Orlando’s 18 and they turned the ball over just six times.

            Trending topics

            The Cavs are just 2-5-1 ATS in their last eight games away from home. They are 1-4 ATS in their last five outings overall.

            The Magic are 1-3 ATS in their last four home dates.

            Cleveland (27-26-3 O/U) has not been a strong over/under play this season, but Orlando (24-32 O/U) has been a stellar under play. The under is 7-3 in the Magic’s last 10 games overall, 15-6 in their last 21 overall.


            Boston Celtics at Denver Nuggets (-4, 198)

            Nate the great


            Boston (35-18, 21-31-1 ATS) beat the NBA trade deadline Thursday and landed three-time Slam Dunk champion Nate Robinson from the New York Knicks in a deal that saw guard Eddie House leave town.

            “It’s a heartbreak,” Kevin Garnett said of losing House, but it’s a heartbreak he is willing to endure. “Now I have a chance to create a similar relationship with Nate. It’s good to get that energy, instant offense. When I think of Nate I think of energy and how he plays the game with his heart and passion, and I look forward to playing with him.”

            Robinson (13.2 ppg, 3.7 apg) is expected to make his debut with the Celtics Tuesday, not Sunday, in part because he is dealing with the flu. While that won’t help Boston against the Nuggets, the trade deadline’s passing is an immediate benefit in that Ray Allen no longer has to worry about being shipped away.

            In two games since the trade deadline, Allen (16.3 ppg) has poured in 24 and 21 points. In a 96-76 road rout of Portland on Friday night, Allen sank 9-of-14 field goals and also added five assists.

            Selfish ball

            Although the Nuggets (36-19, 25-27-3 ATS) are still atop the Northwest Division, they have not won back-to-back games since February 1 and they will be trying to bounce back from a dreadful 107-97 loss at Washington Friday night.

            No Denver player had more than three assists against the Wizards and the team as a whole dished out 12. The Wizards, by contrast, shared the ball to the tune of 22 assists and also out-rebounded the Nuggets 47-40.

            “If we don't pass it, we're not a great team,” coach George Karl explained. “We have a selfish disposition at times. You can't beat anybody with 12 assists. It's just a joke. We should be much more mature and understanding; if that's the way we're going to try to beat people, we're going to have nights like tonight.”

            Prior engagement

            Adding insult to injury, or the other way around, is a back injury to Chris Andersen, who missed his first game of the season Friday night. Andersen was 50-50 to play as of Friday afternoon and the looming game against Boston might have been the deciding factor in Denver’s decision to rest him.

            “I think he knows we need him against Boston,” Karl noted.

            Aside from that, both teams are remarkably healthy. Boston is looking the best it has been all year in the injury department, as Garnett, who missed a total of 12 games in December and January due to a knee problem, is starting to heat up. Garnett tallied 13 points and eight rebounds in a 1-point road win over the Lakers Thursday, 16 points and seven boards in Friday’s victory over Portland.

            Trending topics

            The Celtics are just 2-5 ATS in their last seven games, having failed to cover the spread in five straight games prior to their recent two-game streak.

            The Nuggets have not been stellar ATS of late. They have covered the spread in back-to-back games just once since December 7, and they are 1-3 ATS in their last four home dates.

            In terms of the over/under, Boston (23-29-1 O/U) has been a solid under play this season. Denver (26-29 O/U) has not been a particularly strong over/under play, although the team also leans slightly toward the under. It should be noted that the under is 6-0 in the Celtics last six outings.
