Daily Sports Roundup: February 24

Today in the Daily Sports Roundup: The Heat look for a road victory in Chicago, while Pittsburgh hosts West Virginia, and the Canadiens get a visit from the rival Maple Leafs.

Tipping off on the hardwood . . .

The NBA offers up two games on Thursday, with the Carmelo-less Nuggets hosting the Celtics, and LeBron and the Heat playing on the road in Chicago. The Bulls have already bounced the Heat once this season, winning 99-96 as a 2.5-point home favorite in an OVER result on January 15. Derrick Rose led the way on offense for the Bulls with 34 points in that January victory, while Carlos Boozer was good for 12 points and 10 rebounds on the night. LeBron James sat out that game with an injury for Miami, with Dwyane Wade tossing in a team-high 33 points in the loss. Chris Bosh scored 17 points.

As well, there are four games involving ranked teams on the college hoops schedule for Thursday, with Georgia at No. 13 Florida, Marquette at No. 14 Connecticut, No. 10 Arizona at USC, and West Virginia at No. 4 Pittsburgh. The fourth-ranked Panthers (24-3 SU, 11-10 ATS) will be looking to bounce back from a 60-59 loss at St. John's last time out; Ashton Gibbs poured in 26 points for Pittsburgh in that defeat. The Mountaineers (17-9 SU, 9-13 ATS) beat Notre Dame 72-58 at home last game behind 24 points from Darryl Bryant. Pittsburgh topped West Virginia 71-66 back on February 7.

Taking a trip around the rink . . .

Finally, there are six games on the NHL's Thursday schedule, with the Islanders at Philadelphia, Dallas at Detroit, Chicago at Nashville, St. Louis at Vancouver, Minnesota at Los Angeles, and Toronto at Montreal. Historic rivals Toronto and Montreal have already split four games this season, with the Canadiens winning the most recent matchup 3-0 as a -150 home favorite on February 12. Benoit Pouliot, Brian Gionta, and David Desharnais had the goals for Montreal in that contest, while Carey Price made 27 saves for the shutout. J-S Giguere stopped 36 of 39 Montreal shots for Toronto that day.

Bettors' best friend: Thursday's wagering tips

Injury of interest

Kendrick Perkins, Boston Celtics: Perkins is expected to miss the next three games with a strained MCL he suffered Tuesday, leaving the Celtics thin in the middle as Shaquille O’Neal and Jermaine O’Neal are both still out of commission as well. That likely leaves Semih Erden in line for more minutes over the next little while. Boston visits Denver on Thursday.

Key trends

NBA: Chicago is 15-5-1 against the spread in its last 21 home games. The Bulls host the Heat on Thursday.

NBA: Boston has covered each of its last three games after going 1-4 against the number before that to improve to 27-26-2 against the spread this season.

NCAAB: UConn has played under the total in nine of its last 11 games overall.

NCAAB: Georgia has covered just three of its last 10 meetings with Florida and is 2-4 ATS over its last six overall.

NHL: Philadelphia has won nine of its last 10 games against the New York Islanders.

NHL: Toronto is 3-0-1 in its last four games, while playing under the total in four of its last five.

NHL: The Dallas Stars are 1-8-1 in their last 10 games.

Number of note

51.5 – So much for the theory that Dwyane Wade and LeBron James’ personal numbers would take a big dip when Miami put together the Big Three in the offseason. The duo are averaging 51.5 points combined per game so far this season. James sits second to only Kevin Durant putting up 26.2 points an outing while Wade sits fourth at 25.3, while Miami has won 11 of its last 12 games outright heading into Thursday’s date at Chicago.

Notes and tips

The post-Carmelo Anthony era kicks into full swing Thursday in Denver when the Nuggets welcome Wilson Chandler, Danillo Gallinari and Raymond Felton into the lineup against the Boston Celtics. Denver coach George Karl plans to start Chandler at power forward, Felton at point guard and Gallinari at small forward with Arron Afflalo at shooting guard and Nene at center.

Even though the Dallas Stars are struggling through a major slump as they head down the stretch, GM Joe Nieuwendyk doesn’t expect to trade injured superstar Brad Richards, an unrestricted free agent at season’s end, before Monday’s deadline. Nieuwendyk admits he has talked to some teams about his No. 1 center, but Richards isn’t expected to play before Monday as he continues to battle post-concussion syndrome. Also, word out of Richard’s home town of Murray Harbour, PEI is that the Stars’ leading scorer hopes to sign an extension with Dallas, despite rumors of him possibly heading to New York or back to Tampa Bay. Dallas, which also activated Krys Barch and Adam Burish from the IR, is back in action Thursday at Detroit.

Chicago Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville is back with the team after being hospitalized last week with a small ulcer. The veteran coach was back at practice on Wednesday and will be behind the bench when the Blackhawks visit the Nashville Predators on Thursday. Chicago won three of four games with assistant coach Mike Haviland leading the team in Quenneville’s absence, but is still scrapping to secure a playoff spot in the air-tight Western Conference.

Thursday's six-pack

-- Marshon Brooks scored a Big East-record 52 points, but Providence still lost a slugfest at home to Notre Dame, 94-93.

-- My alma mater Albany evened its record at 15-15; considering they were 7-25 LY, good turnaround year for coach Will Brown.

-- Kentucky is now 1-6 on the road in the SEC after losing at Arkansas by a point in OT. Five of the six losses were by 4 or less points.

-- Chauncey Billups is 5th best free throw shooter in NBA history.

-- Duquesne is now 1-4 in last five games, losing to Rhode Island 77-76 at home; Dukes had started out 8-0 in the Atlantic 14.

-- Cincinnati got a big win for its NCAA hopes, winning at Georgetown 58-46, shutting the Hoyas down in the second half. Sounds like Chris Wright broke his left hand, terrible news for Georgetown.

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

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

13) Today’s phrase of the day: Stealing Thunder. That’s what the Nets did by acquiring Deron Williams before Carmelo Anthony could even play a home game in Manhattan. Brilliant move. Brilliant, that is, if they can get Williams to sign with the Nets longterm.

Next big fish in the free agent pond will be Dwight Howard. Does he go to the Nets, or do the Lakers trade Andrew Bynum for Chris Paul and make their own run at Howard?

12) Much is being made in NYC about the influence that Isiah Thomas has over Knick owner James Dolan, who also owns Cablevision.

Thomas was a great player, but he’s the Matt Millen of the NBA, an incompetent executive who can’t win in the Sun Belt Conference (by way of comparison, Mike Jarvis is winning in the Sun Belt, so there).

If Dolan listens to Isiah, he’s just not smart. Florida International is 9-17 this year, 4-10 in a weak Sun Belt, ranked 271st out of 345 D-I schools. Yup, if I owned a business worth a half a billion dollars, I’d sure want to consult him.

11) You can bet on how guys do at NFL Combine this week; for instance, there is an over/under on Cam Newton’s 40-yard dash, stuff like that. Since its televised by NFL Network, people are betting on it. Go figure.

10) Bad news for the baseball Cardinals; looks like Adam Wainwright is headed towards Tommy John surgery.

9) Speaking of which, the doctor who invented/perfected Tommy John surgery needs to be in Baseball Hall of Fame; we're talking about Dr Frank Jobe, who performed the operation on John way back in 1974.

8) Cubs have big contracts (Aramis Ramirez, Carlos Pena) coming off books this fall, so they’re poised to make a big run at Albert Pujols, who could be a free agent. None of the other big money teams need a 1B.

7) As if we didn’t get enough of him during football season, Rex Ryan was in LA today, shooting scenes for an episode of CSI: NY. With any luck, he’ll be one of the victims, but then he’d probably keep talking anyway. I think his episode is airing March 29.

6) According to Baseball America, and they know a lot, nine of the top 100 prospects in minor leagues belong to the Kansas City Royals.

5) Greedy bastard update: The human scum that own Exxon-Mobil raised the price of gas to $3.49 at the station by my house. Something about the Exxon exec's kids wanting the new Carmelo jersey.

4) #15 Nugget jerseys were still selling for $90 today in the **** by my house; no #7 New York t-shirts in sight. Not yet at least. There were a lot of #7 jerseys in Madison Square Garden last night, and none of them said "Meminger" on the back.

3) If I was a Knick fan, it wouldn’t thrill me that VH1 has already signed up LaLa Vazquez (Mrs Carmelo Anthony) for a reality show, and filming has begun. Tells me this whole debacle was driven by the wife. Awesome.

2) It’ll be interesting to see if George Karl can steer the new-look Nuggets into the playoffs. For one night Tuesday, basketball fans in Denver were happy, as Nuggets hammered Rudy Gay-less Memphis in their first game, A.C. (After Carmelo), and they looked good doing it.

1) How do the two Kansas State kids get suspended immediately for taking some discounted clothes, while Jim Calhoun gets a delayed penalty for outright cheating? How is that fair?

Double dribble: NBA TNT doubleheader betting preview
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Miami Heat at Chicago Bulls (+2, 191)

Chicago will host Miami for the second time this season before taking its talents to South Beach next month. The previous encounter between these two Eastern beasts came on January 15, when Chicago held off the LeBron-less Heat 99-96 (spread was pushed). Kyle Korver hit a tiebreaking three with 25 seconds left and Dwyane Wade missed an answer attempt at the buzzer.

Miami (42-15, 29-27-1 ATS) will have to do a better job of containing All-Star point guard Derrick Rose, who scored 34 points and dished out eight assists. Chicago also dominated the rebounding battle 42 to 30. However, it would be a stretch to put any real stock in the outcome of that contest because LeBron James missed it due to an ankle injury.

The Bulls (38-16, 32-20-2 ATS) are heading into Thursday’s showdown off a Wednesday night visit to Toronto. They have been stellar in the second of back-to-back games this season, having posted a 10-4 SU record (7-6-1 ATS).

Turn up the Heat

Miami returned home from the All-Star break Tuesday and destroyed a woeful Sacramento team 117-97. The Big Three combined for 76 points, led by LeBron’s 31. Wade, refusing to sit out after tweaking his ankle in the fourth quarter of the All-Star Game, went for 23 points, eight rebounds and seven assists.

Now, though, is when it starts to get tough for the Heat. Starting on Thursday, 12 of their next 13 games are against teams that are above .500. Eleven of those 12 contests will come against opponents that are currently at least eight game over .500.

“It’s not like our schedule has been easy up to this point,” head coach Erik Spoelstra told the South Florida Sun-Sentinel. “We’ve played more road games than anybody else. So now we’ll play the best of the best. And if you’re a professional worth their salt, and if we truly are a contending team, we’ll find out about ourselves.”

It begins with Chicago, the best ATS home bet in the entire NBA. The Bulls are 25-4 at the United Center and 18-9-2 ATS. They have been doing it without Joakim Noah, who has missed the last 30 games due to a thumb injury. Noah, though, is healed up and ready to go this week.

Trending topics

The Bulls are 4-0 ATS in their last four overall and 4-0 ATS in their last four against the Eastern Conference.

The over is 4-1 in Chicago’s last five overall and 4-0 in its last four home games. The over is also 10-2 in Miami’s last 12 road contests against teams with winning home records.

Head-to-head, the under is 5-1 in the last six meetings and the favorite is 4-1-1 ATS in the last six encounters.

Boston Celtics at Denver Nuggets (+3.5, 203.5)

The Nuggets will be looking to avenge a blowout loss earlier in the season when they take the court at home against Boston (41-14, 27-26-2 ATS) Thursday. In a December 8 clash at the Garden, the Celtics surged to a 35-21 lead after one quarter and coasted to a 105-89 win, easily covering the seven points.

Carmelo Anthony did not play in that game because of a knee injury and won’t be in Colorado after being traded to the New York Knicks this week. Reserves Ty Lawson (24 points) and J.R. Smith (16 points) picked up the slack, but it was nowhere near enough as Denver made only 6 of 19 3-pointers and got out-rebounded 42 to 34. Ray Allen led the way for Boston with 28 points on 9-of-14 shooting and Rajon Rondo had 13 dimes.

Melo-drama over

The Nuggets (33-25, 25-30-3 ATS) completed their long-awaited blockbuster deal by sending Anthony to the Knicks Monday. Denver also shipped off Renaldo Balkman, Chauncey Billups, Anthony Carter and Shelden Williams while acquiring Wilson Chandler, Raymond Felton, Danilo Gallinari, Kosta Koufos and Timofey Mozgov.

“I can’t deny that when the trade went down last night, I was kind of more sad than happy,” head coach George Karl told the Denver Post on Tuesday.

Denver’s impressive performance one day after the deal, though, must have done a lot to cure Karl’s sorrows. The Nuggets led by as many as 27 points in both the third and fourth quarters before cruising to a 120-107 victory over Memphis and making a joke out of the 1.5-point spread.

Only eight men saw action for the shorthanded home team and all eight played at least 20 minutes. Smith led six Nuggets in double figures with 26 points, while Lawson and Arron Afflalo each contributed 21. Denver forked up 28 shots from downtown and drained 12 of them, including six by Smith.

The team should have its newcomers in uniform for Thursday’s contest.

Trending topics

The Nuggets are 1-4 ATS in their last five games following a SU win and they are 1-10 ATS in their last 11 against the NBA Atlantic.

The over is 5-1 in Denver’s last six overall and 8-1 in its last nine against the Eastern Conference.

Boston is 1-5 ATS in its last six trips to Denver. The home team is 10-2 ATS in the last 12 meetings between the two teams.

Boston Celtics at Denver Nuggets (3.5, 203.5)

Nuggets coach George Karl joked after his team’s 120-107 win over Memphis that his team plays better with a shorter bench. Maybe he should try suiting up just nine players again when his team hosts the Eastern Conference leading Celtics.

Well, or maybe just do whatever caused his team to shoot a blistering 12-of-28 from beyond the arc.

"I've been told by a lot of owners that I coach better when I have a shorter bench," Karl said. "I think everybody knows I enjoy these type of games where you have to mix and match some situations and circumstances and find some success."

But now, Karl must face a totally different challenge. Instead of relying just on a nucleus of remaining players, he must integrate forwards Wilson Chandler and Danilo Gallinari, centers Timofey Mozgov and Kosta Koufos and guard Raymond Felton into the lineup with a mere day of practice. Don’t expect the team to again feature a gaudy, 28-13 assist-to-turnover advantage against one of the league’s top defensive squads.

The Celtics have a day of rest and already have proven their ability to keep pace in an up-and-down game. Boston posted a convincing, 115-93 win in Golden State on Tuesday. The Celtics actually outscored the Warriors in fast break points that game, 30-22.

"We wanted to run. We wanted to push it up and see if we can beat them down the floor,” Celtics coach Doc Rivers said. “But what we didn't want to do is once we didn't have that quick layup or quick open shot, we wanted to set up and execute and go to the post. I thought we did a better job of that offensively in the second half and I thought that allowed us to set our defense."

Look for them to dust that game plan off against the mix-and-matched Nuggets.

Pick: Boston

Georgia Bulldogs at Florida Gators (-5.5)

The Bulldogs should call themselves “The Fighting Mad Max’s,” because they truly are road warriors.

Georgia is an outstanding, 7-2 SU and 7-1 ATS in lined away games this season. The seven road wins are the most for the Bulldogs in 16 years.

“In order to have success on the road, it is truly because you have good players – guys who have bought in,” Georgia coach Mark Fox said. “And that is the reason this year, too."

Another key for the Road Dawgs is the team’s outstanding defense. While the team’s shot comes and goes, opponents are averaging a mere 65.5 point per game this season, the 108th best mark in the country. Even better, teams are making a lowly 39.8 percent of their jumpers, 26th best nationally.

And the Gators have been far from dominant at home this season. The team is a solid 12-3 SU on its own floor, but a pathetic 3-9 ATS in lined games. In fact, just seven of those 12 home victories have come by more than six points.

Florida also could take a big hit to its front court depth. Senior forward Chandler Parsons averages 10.8 points, 7.7 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game this year, but has been out with a hip injury for nearly two weeks. His status is questionable against Georgia.

Pick: Georgia
