Daily Sports Roundup: February 27

Today in the Daily Sports Roundup: The Lakers look to pick up a victory in Oklahoma City, while Louisville plays host to Pittsburgh, and the Sprint Cup Series hits Phoenix.

Tipping off on the hardwood . . .

A busy Sunday offers up 10 NBA games this week, with Phoenix at Indiana, Philadelphia at Cleveland, Golden State at Minnesota, Dallas at Toronto, Charlotte at Orlando, Memphis at San Antonio, Houston at New Orleans, New York at Miami, Atlanta at Portland, and the Lakers at Oklahoma City. Los Angeles got past the Thunder 101-94 as a 4.5-point home favorite when the teams first met this season back on January 17. Kobe Bryant and Pau Gasol each picked up 21 points for Los Angeles in that victory, while Andrew Bynum was good for 10 points and 10 rebounds. Russell Westbrook had a game-high 32 points in the loss for the Thunder, and Kevin Durant tossed in 24 points.

College hoops offers up seven games involving ranked teams on Sunday, with No. 14 Connecticut at Cincinnati, No. 8 Purdue at Michigan State, No. 25 Xavier at Dayton, Indiana at No. 2 Ohio State, Northwestern at No. 12 Wisconsin, Maryland at No. 19 North Carolina, and No. 4 Pittsburgh at No. 16 Louisville. The Panthers (25-3 SU, 12-10 ATS) and Cardinals (21-7 SU, 13-9 ATS) last met in January 2010, with Louisville falling 82-77 to Pittsburgh that day. The Cardinals, though, are coming off a stifling 55-37 win over Rutgers in their last contest, holding the Knights to under 20 points in both halves.

Taking a trip around the rink . . .

As well, there are eight games on the NHL's schedule for Sunday, with Tampa Bay at the Rangers, Columbus at Nashville, New Jersey at Florida, Toronto at Atlanta, St. Louis at Calgary, Boston at Edmonton, Colorado at Anaheim, and Phoenix at Chicago. The Coyotes topped the Blackhawks 3-2 in Phoenix in a shootout as a -120 favorite when the teams last met on February 12. Radim Vrbata and Taylor Pyatt had the goals for the Coyotes in regulation time that day, while Ilya Bryzgalov stopped 31 of 33 Chicago shots. Troy Brouwer and Duncan Keith provided goals for the Blackhawks in that defeat.

Roaring around the track . . .

Finally, the Sprint Cup Series stages its second event of the season on Sunday afternoon, the Subway Fresh Fit 500 at Phoenix International Raceway. Jimmie Johnson, a four-time Cup winner at Phoenix, is tied with Denny Hamlin as the +500 favorite at sportsbooks to take the checkered flag on Sunday, with Kyle Busch and Carl Edwards next on that list at +700 odds. Edwards won the Kobalt Tools 500 at Phoenix last November. Kevin Harvick, Jeff Gordon, and Tony Stewart are next on that odds list at +1200, with surprise Daytona 500 winner Trevor Bayne a longshot again at +10,000.

Bettors' best friend: Sunday's wagering tips

Who’s Hot

NHL: Chicago is 4-1 in its last five overall, 7-2 in its last nine Sunday games.

NBA: The under is 7-0 in Phoenix’s last seven road games.

NBA: Oklahoma City is 11-5 ATS following a SU loss by more than 10 points.

NCAAB: Xavier is 6-1 ATS in its last seven road games.

NCAAB: Maryland is 5-0 ATS in its last five meetings with North Carolina, with the over also going 5-0.

Who’s Not

NHL: St. Louis is 7-21 in its last 28 games playing on one day’s rest.

NBA: New Orleans is 3-10 ATS in its last 13 games.

NBA : Toronto is 3-10 ATS in its last 13 games as an underdog.

NCAAB: Cincinnati is 7-18 ATS in its last 25 home games.

NCAAB: Ohio State is 2-5 ATS in its last seven games.

Key stat

42.6 – North Carolina’s rebounding average, which leads the nation. But Maryland isn’t far behind at 39.3 (18th nationally). The teams meet in Chapel Hill, N.C., at 7:45 p.m. Eastern, with the Terps desperate for a signature win to impress the NCAA selection committee.

Injury that shouldn’t be overlooked

Carmelo Anthony’s right elbow is bothering him. That was clear from the protective sleeve he wore in practice Saturday and by the fact that he shot mainly left-handed. Anthony said he’ll “without a doubt” play at Miami Sunday night, but won’t be 100 percent for a couple weeks.

Anthony felt elbow pain in the Knicks’ loss at Cleveland on Friday.

“He should be fine,” coach Mike D’Antoni said after Saturday's practice. “He didn't take a whole lot of shots, let's put it that way, but he ran through everything. Most of the things we did were to try to get our defense on the same page."

With so many superstars on the floor in Miami Sunday night, the atmosphere figures to be electric. Tickets in the lower levels were going for as high as $2,500 on stubhub.com. Some courtside seats were going for $9,000.

Biggest game on the slate

Los Angeles Lakers at Oklahoma City Thunder (-1, 201)

Notable quotable

“I’m just here for the long haul. As long as I can get me some good games in the regular season, get a good push going into the playoffs, I think I’m going to be alright.” – center Kendrick Perkins, whose Oklahoma City debut will be delayed two to three weeks with a sprained left knee.

Tips and notes

--Bodog.com set Martin Kaymer, golf’s new No. 1-ranked player in the world, as a -125 favorite to win Sunday’s Accenture Match Play Championship over Luke Donald (-105). Kaymer advanced with an 18-hole win over Bubba Watson, while Donald whipped Matt Kuchar, 6 & 5. Weather could be a factor at the desert course in Arizona on Sunday. A winter storm warning is in effect and 1-3 inches of snow are possible.

--The Pac-10 is way down, and nowhere is that more obvious than in the RPI. Arizona is the Pac-10’s highest-rated team, with an RPI of 15. Washington (36) and UCLA (41) are the only other schools in the top 50. In contrast, the Big East boasts 10 teams in the top 50, with Marquette hovering just outside it.

--Butler clinched the Horizon League’s regular-season title without coach Brad Stevens on the bench. He was diagnosed with a corneal edema after experiencing vision problems during Saturday's shootaround. The Bulldogs beat Loyola 63-56 Saturday. Assistant Matthew Graves took over after Stevens, who tried to coach wearing sunglasses, left in the first half. Stevens’ condition is expected to improve enough so he can coach in the conference tournament. The Bulldogs (21-9, 13-5), who have won seven straight, get a bye into the Horizon League tournament semifinals.

Pittsburgh at Louisville: What bettors need to know
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Pittsburgh Panthers at Louisville Cardinals (-1, 134.5)

THE STORY: Remember last year's Pittsburgh team, picked to finish ninth in the Big East but wound up with a No. 3 seed in the NCAA Tournament? Louisville has been this year's 2009-10 Panthers, currently tied for third after its preseason eighth-place forecast and overachieving for Rick Pitino.

TV: 2 p.m., CBS

ABOUT LOUISVILLE (21-7, 10-5 Big East, 14-10-1 ATS): Pitino praised the No. 16 Cardinals' stifling defense with good reason after Tuesday's 55-37 victory at Rutgers - one of the toughest road environments in the league. Louisville limited the Scarlet Knights to just 13-for-44 shooting, including 2-of-14 3-point tries. And it wasn't even the lowest total against the Cardinals this season. They held San Francisco, a current third-place team in the WCC, to just 11 second-half points in a 61-35 romp in December. That defensive intensity bodes well against a Pitt team that struggled in its previous road game, a 60-59 loss at St. John's Saturday, in which no starter managed double-digit scoring. The Cardinals also blocked six shots and forced 18 turnovers against Rutgers.

ABOUT PITTSBURGH (25-3, 13-2, 12-11-0 ATS): With No. 6 Pitt's 71-58 victory over West Virginia Thursday night, coach Jamie Dixon tied North Carolina State's Everett Case and Kansas' Roy Williams for most victories in his first eight seasons with 213. The Panthers put together one of their most complete halves in the second against WVU, outscoring the Mountaineers 41-27 and controlling the paint and the perimeter to set up easy layups and second-chance points. Pitt ranks third in the nation at 18 assists per game, and produced assists on 23 of its 27 field goals in the victory. It also marked the 12th straight game the Panthers held their opponent to 66 points or fewer.

WHO'S HOT/WHO'S NOT: Junior forward Nasir Robinson averages 8.8 points, but has liked the number 15 lately for Pitt. Robinson has contributed 15 points in three of the last five games, and added 13 in one of the other two. He's done so on efficient 24-for-39 shooting. Junior guard Kyle Kuric (9.8 ppg, 3.3 rpg) has stepped up both his scoring and rebounding over Louisville's last eight games, posting 15.0 and 5.1 averages, respectively. He had 11 and seven against Rutgers.

KEY STATISTIC: 68.2 and 67.1 – The respective free-throw percentages for Pitt and Louisville. In what could be a chippy game, the edge may go to whichever team gets hot at the line.

RECENT HISTORY: The Panthers prevailed, 82-77, in overtime at home last season. Louisville defeated then-No. 1 Pittsburgh, 69-63, in 2009 the last time they played in Kentucky. The programs have met just nine times and Pitt holds a 5-4 edge.

LOOKING AHEAD: Both teams finish with Wednesday and Saturday games this week. Pitt goes to South Florida and then home to face Villanova, while Louisville welcomes Providence and then travels to West Virginia.

LAST WORD: Below Pitt, Louisville is one of seven teams still jockeying to clinch the other three “double-bye” spots in the Big East Tournament. Also, while the Panthers are a likely No. 1 or No. 2 seed in the NCAAs, the other horde of Big East teams could go anywhere from No. 3 to No. 11, so the Cardinals have much more to play for in this one.

TRENDS:

- Panthers are 5-2 ATS in their last seven games following a ATS win.
- Cardinals are 14-6 ATS in their last 20 Sunday games.
- Under is 5-1 in Panthers' last six road games.
- Under is 7-2 in Cardinals' last nine home games.

Pick 'n' roll: Today's best basketball bets
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NBA

Philadelphia 76ers at Cleveland Cavaliers

The 76ers are playing with something not seen in Philadelphia in a long time: swagger.

The Sixers are 7-3 SU and 6-4 ATS over their past 10, playing their way into the 7th seed in the Eastern Conference. Not bad for a team viewed as a collection of stiff forwards and poor-shooting wings entering the season.

Coach Doug Collins has preached defense first, shots second and the result has been wins – and high scores. Because Collins uses a deep bench, the team has no true superstar but a relentless energy that leads to scores of fast-break points and inflated totals.

In two games since the All-Star break, Philadelphia has had 12 players crack double figures. During a 110-94 victory over Detroit on Friday, the team racked up 31 fast-break points as Elton Brand, Andre Iguodala and Thaddeus Young each broke the 20-point barrier.

The over is 7-1 in the Sixers’ last eight road games, 4-0 in their past four contests overall.

Meanwhile, the Cavaliers have been scoring a ton lately, too, with the over going 6-0 in their past six. Over that span, the team has topped the century mark five times. Veteran Antawn Jamison has been the catalyst. He's averaged 25.2 points over that span – more than seven points above his season average.

Pick: Over


NCAA

Maryland Terrapins at North Carolina Tar Heels (-6)

Maryland coach Gary Williams believes his only chance to reach the NCAA Tournament is to put the team in the hands of a freshman.

First-year guard Terrell Stoglin is averaging 10.9 points and 3.3 assists for the season, but has been nearly unstoppable over his past five games. With the Terps going 3-2 SU over that span, he has averaged 19.2 points and 6.0 assists.

“It’s the great competitor that thinks he can score against anybody,” Williams said. "He's going to make some mistakes in terms of shot selection. But what he gives you is somebody that wants to be out there."

And Maryland has more than competed in its past five games against the Tar Heels. The Terps are 4-1 SU and 5-0 ATS, including an upset victory as 18-point underdogs in Chapel Hill three years ago. North Carolina, meanwhile, has failed to cover as a favorite in its last two home games.

North Carolina must find a way to make more 3-pointers if it wants to shell the Terrapins. The Tar Heels are making just 31.7 percent of their threes, which ranks 11th in the ACC. They’ve hit just 16 of 85 (18.8 percent) in their last five games.

Pick: Maryland

Double dribble: Sunday's NBA betting preview
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Los Angeles Lakers at Oklahoma City Thunder (-1, 201)

The Thunder will get a chance to avenge a loss earlier in the season when they host the Lakers in a nationally-televised showdown Sunday afternoon.

At the Staples Center on January 17, Los Angeles handled Kevin Durant and Co. for a 101-94 victory and covered the 4.5-point spread. Kobe Bryant and Pau Gasol led five Lakers in double figures with 21 points apiece.

For Oklahoma City, Durant went for 24 on just 8-for-24 shooting while Russell Westbrook carried the visitors with 32 points. The Thunder turned it over just nine times to their opponents’ 15 turnovers, but they were doomed by dismal 2-for-22 shooting from long range.

Thunder rolled

Oklahoma City is one of many NBA teams in a transition state following this week’s trade deadline.

Jeff Green headed to Boston while the Thunder acquired Kendrick Perkins and Nate Robinson from the Celtics. The shorthanded squad did not fare well in its first post-deadline game at Orlando Friday night. Oklahoma City, a 6-point underdog, got blown out by the Magic 111-88.

Robinson will be available for Sunday’s contest, but Perkins will not make his debut with the Thunder for one more week because of a sprained knee. Orlando center Dwight Howard, however, said after the game that he expects big things from OKC.

“They're up there now,” he told NewsOK.com. “They have a legitimate chance of winning a title. I think the one thing that Oklahoma (City) needed was a guy in the paint on the defensive end. They have (Serge) Ibaka. But then you add somebody like Kendrick, it's going to make it very tough with all the length.”

With Perkins out and the team’s new core yet to gel, such optimism probably doesn’t apply to a tough game against the Lakers, who have won three straight since the All-Star break. The Thunder could really use Perkins, too, because L.A. has one of the most imposing frontcourts in the league with a healthy Andrew Bynum now teaming up with Gasol and Lamar Odom.

Trending topics

The Lakers are 4-0 ATS in their last four against the Western Conference and 6-1 ATS in their last seven road games against teams with winning home records.

The over is 4-1 in L.A.’s last five overall. Head-to-head, the home team is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings. The Thunder are 4-1 ATS in their last five at home against the Lakers.



New York Knicks at Miami Heat (-8.5, 215.5)

The fourth and final regular season meeting between New York and Miami will feature a new-look Knicks team.

That’s not necessarily good news for the Knicks, though, because they were 3.5-point underdogs at home with their “old” team on January 27 and upset the Heat 93-88. Plenty of now-former New York players did the damage, although Amare Stoudemire scored 24 points.

Miami was without Chris Bosh due to an ankle injury. The Heat, however, won the first two meetings between the two teams, 113-91 at Madison Square Garden on December 17 (easily covering the 5-point spread) and 106-98 at home on December 28 (the Knicks covered by half a point).

When all three members of the “Big 3” have been in action for the Heat, it has been trouble for New York. The trio combined for 84 points in the first encounter (led by LeBron James’ 32 and triple-double) and it scored 76 points in the second win (led by Dwyane Wade’s 40 points).

When stars align

Five bona fide stars will be on the court for this one. The Heat have three and the Knicks have two, but head-to-head history still sides with the Knicks in the superstar department.

The Nuggets went 10-4 (8-5-1 ATS) against the Cavs while Carmelo Anthony played in Denver and before James took his talents from Cleveland to South Beach. With respect to individual bragging rights, though, it should be noted that Anthony missed two of those 14 games. Interestingly, both resulted in wins and covers by the Nuggets.

For their careers, in games in which they both played, Anthony has averaged 20.8 points, 5.8 rebounds and 3.9 assists. James is averaging 26.6 points, 6.8 rebounds and 8.0 assists.

In addition to his 8-4 SU record at LeBron’s expense, Carmelo is 10-3 SU lifetime against Wade. Furthermore, Stoudemire is 7-3 SU against Bosh.

Injury update

Injury was added to insult when Anthony played his first road game with the Knicks Friday. Not only did they lose, 115-109, to lowly Cleveland, but Carmelo also departed with a sore elbow when he fouled out late in the fourth quarter.

He should be good to go for Sunday’s clash. For Miami, Mike Miller took an elbow to the face last week and has missed four games due to ear and eye trouble. Miller is expected to return on Sunday.

Trending topics

The Knicks are 6-1-1 ATS in their last eight games following a SU loss The Heat are 4-1 ATS in their last five games following an ATS loss, but they are 1-4 ATS in their last five against the Eastern Conference.

The under is 8-3 in New York’s last 11 road games, but the over is 4-1 in Miami’s last five home games. Head-to-head, the road team is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings and the over is 3-0-1 in the last four in South Beach.
