    Armadillo: Tuesday's six-pack

    Sporting News lists six best fantasy 2B's and six best shortstops.....

    1) Robinson Cano, NYY 1) Hanley Ramirez, LA
    2) Ian Kinsler, Tex 2) Troy Tulowitzki, Colo
    3) Duston Pedroia, Bos 3) Jose Reyes, Tor
    4) Jason Kipnis, Clev 4) Starlin Castro, Cubs
    5) Chase Utley, Phil 5) Elvis Andrus, Tex
    6) Brandon Phillips, Cin 6) Ben Zobrist, TB


    *****

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

    13) I love shootouts in the NHL; they're orchestrated drama, but they're fun to watch and they create a unique kind of strategy.

    12) Florida Panthers played 25 overtime LY; seems like a lot, out of 82; Vancouver played 24. Thats why the 4-on-4 OT format and the shootout have become necessities. 25 ties in a season would be boring.

    11) As much as I like the NHL, and they have knocked the price of their TV package down to $60 for this shortened season, I turn on the Islander game Monday and there's a brawl one second into the game.

    I can watch the WWE for free; if you want me to pay to watch your product, do not give me goons, give me hockey. Its a great sport, if you allow it to be.

    10) Lakers are 17-24, 5-14 on the road and are in serious trouble as far as making the playoffs go, since 41 games is season's halfway point.

    9) Washington's Jordan Crawford drained a trey from left wing as Wizards won 98-95 in Portland for fifth win in last seven games after a 4-28 start. Funny how John Wall playing has made his teammates play better, too.

    8) Nets-Knicks has become an excellent rivalry because they're both good teams; too bad they don't play again in regular season. Weird scheduling.

    7) Maloof family sold their 65% of Sacramento Kings to a group that will move the team to Seattle; NBA stole the Sonics from Seattle and moved them to Oklahoma five years ago- now the Sonics will be back, only team is going to suck at first, because well, they've still got the Kings' players.

    6) Ohio State gave hoop coach Thad Matta a raise to $3.2M a year; he has a 234-69 record in Columbus, 101-42 in conference play. Very consistent.

    5) Tough loss for Towson State against Georgia State Monday; Tigers are now 10-10, after being 1-31 LY. Good coaching job by Pat Skerry- Towson is 5-2 in a weakened CAA, major progress.

    4) Baylor beat Oklahoma State Monday, its third win in row vs OSU, first time Bears have ever beaten Oklahoma State three times in a row. After losing 48 of their first 54 games vs OSU, Baylor won 10 of last 13 series games.

    3) 49ers can't be real happy with kicker David Akers, who has missed 13 FGs this season, but if they cut him now, they couldn't bring Billy Cundiff back, it would have to be someone else, so they're going with Akers. Super Bowl is in a dome, but so was last week's game.

    2) NHL lockout had to be hardest on coaches, since they have to deal with players in various degrees of conditioning; games are more important with a 48-game schedule, so winning/losing becomes more important than normal.

    Losing teams are going to fire the coach, which in this unique season, doesn't seem fair. Smart teams might give their coach a mulligan this season.

    1) Missouri Tigers have themselves a problem; sounds like the NCAA is going to come down hard on basketball coach Frank Haith for what happened at Miami, so Mizzou may have to cut Haith loose to avoid sanctions should a show-cause order be slapped on Haith. Doesn't seem fair to the players at Missouri, but then again, no one ever said life is fair.

          Armadillo's Write-Up

          Tuesday, January 22


          -- Ohio State won last seven games vs Iowa, winning last four here, by 2-8-5-29 points; they crushed Hawkeyes 76-47 in LY's only meeting. Buckeyes are just 3-2 in league but won two home tilts by 26-3 points. Iowa won last two games after starting league play 0-3; all three of their Big Dozen home games were decided by 4 or less points (1-2). Big Dozen double digit favorites are 8-6 vs spread, 5-4 at home.
          -- Michigan State beat Wisconsin three times LY, with 63-60 OT win its first win in Madison in at least a decade (lost last seven visits here, with five of seven losses by 13+ points).

              Iowa at (15) Ohio State (-11)

              After splitting a pair of three-point games against the high-powered Michigan teams of the Big Ten, Ohio State returns home for another pivotal league battle against Iowa. The Buckeyes handed rival Michigan its first loss of the season on Jan. 13 and took Michigan State to the wire on Saturday. The Hawkeyes also suffered a three-point loss to the Spartans before turning around their fortunes in the Big Ten with wins over Northwestern and Wisconsin, which had been unbeaten in conference play. Ohio State forward Deshaun Thomas is leading the leading scorer in conference play at 23.2 points per game, while his team is posting just 62.2, better than only four other teams in the 12-team league. Iowa has lost seven straight meetings and six in a row at Ohio State.

              South Carolina at (22) Missouri (-14.5)


              The Tigers were clobbered 83-52 by the Gators on Saturday and have lost their first two Southeastern Conference road games, but are 10-0 at home this season. Missouri hasn’t looked good without senior forward Laurence Bowers (16.8 points, 6.9 rebounds), who has missed the past three games with a sprained MCL in his right knee. He is listed as doubtful. All three of South Carolina’s conference losses have come by seven points or less, including a 58-51 home defeat to Vanderbilt on Saturday. The Gamecocks are 5-1 ATS in their last six road games.

              (11) Michigan State at Wisconsin (-6)


              The Spartans have won five consecutive games, possess a 5-1 mark in conference play and are in first place by a half-game over Wisconsin and Michigan. Wisconsin had held 11 consecutive foes to 60 points or less before the Hawkeyes put up 70 points on them Saturday. The Badgers allow a conference-low 55.8 points per game. Michigan State is especially tough on the glass, outrebounding opponents by an average of eight per game. The Spartans are 1-4 ATS in their last five road games.

              (18) NC State at Wake Forest (+7.5)


              North Carolina State is among the top teams in the nation on offense, but needs to improve on defense if it is to emerge as an elite team down the stretch. The Wolfpack lead the ACC with an average of 78.9 points and in field goal percentage at 51.1 percent - one of seven teams in the country at 50 percent or better. North Carolina State, though, is second-to-last in points allowed at 68.6. The Demon Deacons are 7-2 at home, with both their ACC victories coming at Lawrence Joel Veterans Memorial Coliseum. Wake Forest is coming off a 66-65 loss at Virginia Tech on Saturday and has lost five straight to N.C. State. The Demon Deacons are 7-1 ATS in their last eight games overall.

              (5) Louisville at Villanova (+12)


              Louisville’s run as the nation’s top-ranked team didn’t last long. Saturday’s two-point loss to Syracuse knocked the Cardinals down to No. 5 entering Tuesday’s road tilt at Villanova. The Wildcats have lost three consecutive games after falling to Providence on Saturday. Turnovers have been an issue all season for the Wildcats but they really plagued them during their recent 69-66 loss to Providence. Villanova committed a season-worst 25 miscues and the Friars had a huge 30-6 edge in points off turnovers. The Wildcats are averaging 57.8 points over their last four games after averaging 81.5 over the previous four contests.

              (2) Kansas at (13) Kansas State (+3)


              The top spot in the Big 12 standings will be on the line when Kansas State hosts bitter rival Kansas. The second-ranked Jayhawks and the Wildcats are the only teams undefeated in league play. The Jayhawks have won 15 straight - the longest win streak in the nation - since a 67-64 loss to Michigan State on Nov. 13, but they barely survived a sluggish effort Saturday in a 64-59 win at Texas. Kansas defends extremely well, holding opponents to 34.8 percent from the field - second-lowest in the nation. Kansas State has won eight straight since a loss to Gonzaga in Seattle, and the Wildcats are coming off a 69-60 home win over Oklahoma on Saturday. Kansas has won 44 of the past 47 meetings overall but is 1-4 ATS in its last five games overall.

                        Thunder at Clippers: What bettors need to know
                        ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                        Oklahoma City Thunder at Los Angeles Clippers (1, 201)

                        Chris Paul looked just fine in his return from a knee injury on Saturday, but testing it a second time did not produce the desired results. Paul will see how it holds up on the second night of a back-to-back when the Los Angeles Clippers host the Oklahoma City Thunder on Tuesday. Paul struggled to four points in a loss at Golden State on Monday and labored at times in the second half.

                        The Thunder, who lead Los Angeles and the San Antonio Spurs by a half-game for first place in the Western Conference, had a six-game winning streak snapped in an overtime loss at Denver on Sunday. Oklahoma City remains the only team in the NBA to have single-digit losses thanks in part to the boasting the top-scoring offense in the leagues. Kevin Durant has been on fire of late and Chris Paul will have his hands full trying to guard Russell Westbrook at less than 100 percent.

                        TV: 10:30 p.m. ET, Fox Sports Oklahoma (Oklahoma City), Prime Ticket (Los Angeles), NBATV

                        ABOUT THE THUNDER (32-9): Oklahoma City has played seven of its last nine games on the road and will play four more away before getting home on Jan. 31. Any fatigue that the team might be suffering has shown up on the defensive end the past two games, when the Thunder have been forced into overtime at Dallas and at Denver. Durant’s career-high 52 points helped them pull out the 117-114 win at Dallas but 37 from the MVP candidate was not enough in the 121-118 setback against the Nuggets. Durant is averaging 37.5 points over his last six games and has gone 41-of-42 from the free throw line in the last two contests. Westbrook nearly matched Durant with 36 points on Sunday and has gone over 30 points in four straight. Durant went for 35 points while Westbrook collected 23 and nine assists in a 117-111 overtime victory over Los Angeles on Nov. 21.

                        ABOUT THE CLIPPERS (32-10): Paul missed three straight games with a bruised kneecap but returned on Saturday and went for 22 points and 11 assists in a win over the Washington Wizards. The All-Star went 1-for-7 from the field in Monday’s 106-99 loss at Golden State, prompting coach Vinny Del Negro to tell reporters, “You could see he doesn’t have that extra burst like he usually has.” Paul will be a game-time decision for Tuesday. Aside from Paul’s performance, the big letdown Monday was by the defense, which allowed the Warriors to put up 33 points in the fourth quarter. Los Angeles is among the best teams in the NBA in terms of scoring defense and had held its previous two opponents under 90.

                        TRENDS:


                        * Over is 5-1 in the last six meetings.
                        * Over is 8-2 in Thunder’s last 10 vs. NBA Pacific foes.
                        * Clippers are 7-0 ATS in their last seven after allowing 100 points or more in their previous game.
                        * Thunder are 0-4 ATS in the last four meetings in Los Angeles.

                        BUZZER BEATERS:


                        1. Oklahoma City has lost in each of its last four trips to face the Clippers.

                        2. Los Angeles F Blake Griffin scored 23 points in the first meeting and has averaged 21.3 points and 10 rebounds in nine career games against the Thunder.

                        3. Oklahoma City’s 13-6 road record is tied with the Clippers for tops in the Western Conference.
