Daily Sports Roundup: December 17

Today in the Daily Sports Roundup: Ranked Tennessee takes on Charlotte, the Hawks look for a home win over the Wings, and the Mavericks play host to the Suns in Dallas.

Tipping off on the hardwood . . .

The NBA offers up 11 games on Friday night, with New Jersey at Toronto, the Lakers at Philadelphia, Miami at New York, Cleveland at Indiana, the Clippers at Detroit, Charlotte at Atlanta, Utah at New Orleans, Sacramento at Oklahoma City, Memphis at Houston, Minnesota at Portland, and Phoenix at Dallas. The Suns (12-12 SU, 9-14-1 ATS) got back to the .500 mark with a 128-122 home win over the Timberwolves last time out on Wednesday. Steve Nash had 11 points to go along with 19 assists in that win, while Robin Lopez returned from injury to pick up 12 points and eight boards. The Mavs (20-5 SU, 13-10-2 ATS) got past the Blazers 103-98 at home on Wednesday, with Caron Butler tossing in a team-high 23 points and Dirk Nowitzki adding 21 points in that victory.

As well, the lone game involving a ranked team on the college basketball schedule for Friday has No. 7 Tennessee at Charlotte. The seventh-ranked Volunteers (7-1 SU, 4-3 ATS) were upset 89-82 by Oakland last time out, with Brian Williams scoring 18 points in the loss. The 49ers (4-5 SU, 2-4 ATS) are coming off an 82-68 road loss to Davidson in which Derrio Green tossed in 16 points. Charlotte, though, is moving on without leading scorer Shamari Spears, as the forward was dismissed from the team this week.

Taking a trip around the rink . . .

Finally, there are four games on the ice around the NHL on Friday night, with Nashville at New Jersey, Buffalo at Florida, Ottawa at Colorado, and Detroit at Chicago. The 20-7-3 Red Wings are coming off a 5-3 home win over the Blues on Wednesday night in which defenseman Nicklas Lidstrom picked up his first career hat trick. Niklas Kronwall and Danny Cleary had the other Detroit markers that day, while Jimmy Howard made 19 saves. The 16-14-3 Blackhawks are riding a three-game losing skid into Friday's game, falling 4-3 at home to Colorado last time out. The Hawks lost 3-2 at home to the Wings on October 9.

Friday's six-pack

NFL trends with Week 15 here........

-- Bengals are 0-7 in last seven games as a home favorite.

-- Buccaneers covered three of last 17 home games.

-- Saints covered nine of last 11 against AFC teams.

-- Redskins covered nine of last 11 road games.

-- Broncos are 8-16 in last 24 games as a road underdog.

-- Packers are 11-5 in last 16 games as a road underdog.

***************************************

Friday's List of 13: What I'm looking for this weekend

13) Miami Heat visit the Knicks, closing out a week in Manhattan when Carmelo Anthony, the Celtics and now Lebron/Wade all visit. Knicks earned respect in loss to the Celtics Wednesday- stopping the Heat’s 10-game win streak would create a lot of buzz in the Big Apple.

12) Since 1988, Eagles are 10-1 in their second meeting with the Giants, if Philly won the first, which they did this year. Pivotal game in NFC East; Giants are on short after the win in Detroit Monday night.

11) Where is Monday’s Bear-Viking game being played? University of Minnesota? Indianapolis? Who is healthy enough to play QB for the Vikings? Tarvaris Jackson? Joe Webb? Patrick Ramsey? What a debacle this season has turned into for the Vikings.

10) Saints-Ravens could very easily be a Super Bowl preview.

9) Tampa Bay is 8-0 vs. teams with losing records, 0-5 vs. winning teams; Detroit may be 9-3 vs. spread, but they’re most definitely still a losing team. Stats say Bucs by a field goal, no?

8) Can Falcons make long trip to Seattle and win on the road for the third week in a row? They’ve got a home Monday nighter with the Saints on deck. Definite trap game for Atlanta, against a Seahawk team that already has seven losses by 15+ points.

7) Bowl season starts Saturday, with the first three of 35 bowls. Games in such tourist traps as Albuquerque and Boise precede the Troy-Ohio game from New Orleans. For some of these teams, it’s a rare chance to be on national TV.

6) Jaguars-Colts is a huge game in the AFC South. Jacksonville has never swept the Colts, but this is their best chance to do so.

5) Hopefully the Broncos will show more heart in Oakland than they did in a 43-13 loss in Arizona last week. First time they met, Raiders led 38-7 at the half at Invesco.

4) Is Aaron Rodgers going to play Sunday night in Foxboro? Packers don’t have much chance without him.

3) Bengals (lost last 10 games), Panthers (lost last seven) and Titans (lost last six) are all favored this week. Will any of them win? Will any of them lose? Has to be first time ever three teams as inept as these three have been favored in the same week.

2) Jets are 0-7 in Pittsburgh; they haven’t scored a TD in their last two games, or in any of their four losses. Steelers were bailed out the last two weeks by their defense, and the game before that by a dropped TD pass in OT. This is a winnable game for the Jets.

1) Chiefs-Rams is huge in two divisions; St Louis won four of last five home games- can they help themselves and the Chargers with another home win? Cassel practiced Wednesday, so he’s going to play, but how well will he play 11 days after an emergency appendectomy?

Bettors' best friend: Friday's wagering tips

Who's hot

NBA: The Thunder are 4-0 ATS in their last four overall.

NBA: The 76ers are 8-0 ATS in their last eight home games.

NCAAB: The over is 11-2 in Oregon's last 13 non-conference games and 10-2 in its last 12 overall.

NHL: The Predators are 4-0 in their last four overall.

Who's not

NBA: The Hawks are 3-12 ATS in their last 15 home games.

NBA: The Hornets are 3-13-1 ATS in their last 17 overall.

NCAAB: Charlotte is 0-5 ATS in its last five against the SEC.

NHL: The Senators are 1-5 in their last six road games.

Key stat

0-15 – That's the Clippers' record in their last 15 road games dating back to last season. They lost their last four away from home during their 2009-10 campaign and they have started this season 0-11 on the road. Of course, their woes as visitors are so well-documented that they obviously get plenty of points from Vegas whenever they travel. The Clippers are a respectable 6-5 ATS this season on the road. One of the myriad reasons for their woes is that Blake Griffin is averaging 17.5 points per game on the road, just about five fewer than he averages at home.

Injuries that shouldn't be overlooked

The Colorado Avalanche have currently won four games in a row following a four-game losing streak, and they have done it without a pair of key contributors. Chris Stewart missed all four wins (and every game this month) with a broken hand and fellow right winger Milan Hejduk missed Wednesday's win at Chicago with a groin injury. Stewart is out until January. Hejduk, who has scored goals in three of his last four games and has six goals in his last nine outings, is questionable for Friday's home date with Ottowa.

Biggest game on the slate

Miami Heat at New York Knicks

Notable quotable

"Everybody keeps saying Indy, Indy. What about us? What about the Jacksonville Jaguars? What about us going out and executing and holding everything we want in our own hands?" -- Jaguars' linebacker Kirk Morrison, whose team leads the AFC South by one game over the Colts. Jacksonville visits Indianapolis on Sunday afternoon.

Tips and notes

Tennessee sophomore forward Jeronne Maymon has been cleared to play when the Volunteers visit UNC-Charlotte on Friday. Maymon finally got the green light when final grades were submitted. A transfer from Marquette, he averaged 4.0 points and 4.2 rebounds in nine games with his former team last season. Tennessee was hoping to have Maymon for its two most recent games, but that did not happen. Interestingly, the Vols toppled Michigan State but then got upset by Oakland.

Drew Stafford notched his third career hat trick on Wednesday, scoring three goals in Buffalo's 3-2 win over Boston on Wednesday night. Stafford is becoming quite a master of the comeback. He missed 11 games with a shoulder injury and returned on Dec. 3 to contribute a goal and an assist in a win over Columbus. He missed four games with the same injury prior to Wednesday's explosion. Tim Connolly (groin) and Rob Niedermayer (knee) also came back following eight-game absences, so the Sabres are looking good heading into Friday's trip to Florida.

Josh McRoberts found himself on the bench for the second half of Indiana's Wednesday night loss to the Lakers. Due to a lack of rebounding, coach Jim O'Brien shelved McRoberts (one rebound in 14 minutes) and gave 11 minutes of playing time to Tyler HanXXXough. O'Brien also said afterward that he is going to stick with Roy Hibbert at center, who can expect to see more and more playing time coming up. The Pacers host Cleveland on Friday.

Pick 'n' roll: Friday's best NBA bets

Miami Heat at New York Knicks (5, 209)

This one was almost a showdown between two teams on a combined 19-game winning streak. The Heat have won 10 in a row and the Knicks were seconds away from beating Boston on Wednesday night in MSG and earning their ninth straight W.

Instead, Paul Pierce broke a tie game on a jumper with 0.4 second remaining. Amar'e Stoudemire responded with a three-pointer from the top of the key that would have won the game, but it came after the buzzer. While the Knicks (and the Heat, for that matter) have been beating up on relative puffcakes, they were not about to call it a moral victory against the Eastern Conference's elite.

"Tough loss; tough shot," said Raymond Felton. "I'd rather lose by 15 points than like this. I am mad. I hate to lose."

Two days after getting a shot at the team with the best record in the conference, New York gets a crack at one of the hottest teams in basketball. The Heat almost became the fourth team in NBA history to win 10 games in a row all by double-digits. They won their 10th on Wednesday, however, by just six points over Cleveland.

Now Miami is focused on the Knicks, who would be the team's biggest scalp in its last 11 outings.

"It'll be a great environment; one of those games that you love to play in, those moments that you look forward to," said Dwyane Wade. "And when Friday comes I think we'll all be excited."

Pick: Knicks +5


Utah Jazz at New Orleans Hornets (1, 189)

The Jazz are in the midst of a rare three-day break from games as they head into a four-game road trip, starting on Friday in New Orleans. Mehmet Okur, who has been out since undergoing Achilles' surgery in April, is going to make the trip but may not play at all (he definitely won't against the Hornets).

Utah will, however, see the return of Raja Bell. The veteran guard has missed the past three games with an adductor strain and he is a game-time decision for Friday. "I'm treating it like I'm gonna play," Bell said.

The last time the Jazz went on a four-game road trek, they won all four games in dramatic come-from-behind fashion.

"That first game is going to be really important," said star guard Deron Williams. "Sometimes how you play in that first game can dictate how the rest of the trip goes."

"Yeah, that New Orleans game, they're going to try and come at us because we already won the first game against them," added center Al Jefferson. "So that's the one that's going to be the big win, because like D-Will said, it's going to set the tone for the rest of them."

Utah drubbed the Hornets 105-87 at home on Nov. 24. Williams scored 26 points and Jefferson chipped in 23 to go along with 10 rebounds.

Pick: Jazz

College funds: Friday's best NCAAB bets

Oregon Ducks at Virginia Cavaliers (-7)

Virginia will have had a nine-day break for finals when it takes the court against Oregon on Friday. Wahoos' head coach Tony Bennett said the rest was productive for injured players Sammy Zeglinski (knee) and Will Sherrill (broken fibula).

But that matters little for Sherrill at the moment, as he is still out and will miss Friday's game.

"I don't know if it will heal until the season's done and he can take time off, but you can play with this injury," Bennett explained. "It's more based on what kind of pain you can handle. So I've been teasing him, 'If you're tough you'll be playing, if you're not, you won't,' we joke around."

Zeglinski, though, is back from offseason knee surgery. Expected to be the team's starting point guard, the redshirt junior missed the first seven games of the 2010 campaign. Zeglinski played a total of 27 minutes in victories over Virginia Tech and Radford. He is likely to get more playing time against an Oregon team that likes to press.

"If they're going to press and put that kind of pressure on you, you want guys who can handle it and make good decisions," Bennett noted. "Another ball-handler is always a good thing."

Pick: Virginia


Tennessee Volunteers at Charlotte 49ers (12, 144)

One team gets a player, another team loses one.

Tennessee returns sophomore forward Jeronne Maymon, who was academically cleared when grades were submitted earlier this week. Maymon played nine games last season for Marquette before transferring. He gives the Volunteers an imposing frontcourt of Maymon (6'6'', 240 pounds), Tobias Harris (6'8'', 220), and Brian Williams (6'10'', 278).

Charlotte, on the other hand, kicked its leading scorer off the team on Tuesday. Shamari Spears, a 6'6'', 245-pound forward, got the boot after having been suspended for more than a month due to a violation of team rules. He averaged 17.0 points and 3.2 rebounds through five games.

"After much consideration, it is the decision of our coaching staff that Shamari Spears and our team part ways at this time," head coach Alan Major announced. "We want to wish him the best in his future endeavors and we will continue to move forward as a team."

The 49ers have plenty of moving forward to do, as they are 4-6 and coming off a 82-68 loss at Davidson last weekend. Tennessee is also looking to bounce back. After upsetting Michigan State, the Vols were stunned at home by Oakland 89-82 on Tuesday.

Pick: Tennessee

Ice picks: Friday's best NHL bets

Detroit Red Wings at Chicago Blackhawks

NHL teams aren't too proud to kick an opponent when it's down, especially when that team is your hated rival.

The Detroit Red Wings can deliver a crushing blow to the Chicago Blackhawks, who have lost three straight games including a 5-4 defeat to the Colorado Avalanche on Wednesday night. Chicago allowed three goals in the third period, two of those coming on an Avs power play following a questionable high-sticking penalty to Jordan Hendry.

"I totally disagree with the call," head coach Joel Quenneville told the media. "But we still have to get through that."

Fingers are pointing at the offense, defense and special teams during this slump. The Blackhawks have allowed six total goals in the final frame in the past two games, both versus Colorado as part of a home-and-home series.

"You can say there’s one bad game out of three, but at the end of the day we only have one point in our last three games, and what good is that?" forward Jonathan Toews told reporters following Wednesday’s loss. "You can talk all day about doing good things out there and working for chances and working around the net and giving those second efforts, but it just doesn’t cut it when you don’t get the results that you want."

Detroit has won three straight meetings with Chicago, most recently taking a 3-2 win back in October. Over the past 10 head-to-head games between these Original Six rivals, the Red Wings are 6-4.

Pick: Detroit


Buffalo Sabres at Florida Panthers (100, 5)

Every loss stings, but when you cough up a three-goal lead to lose the game, defeat feels more like a sucker-punch to the back of the head.

The Florida Panthers are picking themselves up off the mat after suffering such a loss to the Carolina Hurricanes on Wednesday. They jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the first period only to give up four unanswered goals to the Hurricanes, including three in the third period, losing 4-3.

"It's inexcusable to lose a lead like that,'' Florida head coach Peter DeBoer told the Miami Herald after Wednesday’s crushing defeat.

"There's no sugarcoating it. We didn't get any of the right plays at the right times from our goaltender on out. It's inexcusable at this time of year; the importance of that game. Not more you can say than that.''

Florida was out-shot 12-4 in the third period, losing its second straight game. The Panthers fell to the Nashville Predators 3-0 earlier in the week, managing just 22 shots in total. They’ve lost eight of their last 10 meetings with the Sabres, who have taken the last two games against Florida.

Pick: Buffalo
