Armadillo: Friday's six-pack

-- Phillies are 9-14, 6-8 at home; they just look old.

-- Bulls were held to two points in last 5:47, but they held on to beat Nets 79-76-- Brooklyn covered the spread by half a point.

-- Miami won by 13 at Milwaukee, in maybe the worst playoff series ever. Bucks led this game by hoop at the half, but got outscored 30-18 in third quarter. You get the idea the Bucks don't even think they can win.

-- Not surprising that Boston beat the Astros 7-2; David Ortiz hit his first home run of the season. Red Sox are 15-7 and looking good.

-- Royals are 11-8, Pirates 13-9; is it too early to suggest a shift in balance of power in the two Central divisions?

-- Doug McDermott is staying at Creighton for his senior year, giving his father Greg another top 25 team in Omaha. Merry Christmas, Dad.

Armadillo: Friday's List of 13: Notes while watching the NFL draft.......

13) Four offensive linemen were taken in the first seven picks of the draft for the first time ever; unclear whether these linemen are that good, or everyone else is just so subpar this season.

12) Watching TV people bash the Raiders' drafts for the last 10-15 years without mentioning the late Al Davis by name is always funny, even as they show Davis' brother manning the Raiders' phone at Radio City.

11) Raiders have started 15 different QBs over the last decade. Yikes.

10) Jets' first round pick Dee Milliner has had five surgeries and has a rod in his leg; he had shoulder surgery in March. He also played for Alabama, so he's well-coached and used to winning.

9) USA Today reports that when Dolphins' pick Dion Jordan was a senior in high school, he set himself on fire in a bizarre accident.......

".........Jordan was watching a friend as he tried to siphon gas from a car while using a vacuum cleaner. When the friend finished, Jordan walked over to the vacuum to turn it off. When he flipped the vacuum’s “off” switch, it released a spark, spreading flames onto Jordan."

You can get gas out of a car with a vacuum cleaner?

8) Patriots got four draft picks from Minnesota for the #29 pick; who did the Vikings want so bad? WR Cordarrelle Patterson of Tennessee. They'll be comparing this to when the Falcons traded up to get Julio Jones, in what was an excellent trade for Atlanta.

7) Nine offensive linemen were taken in the first round; one QB, not one running back, in what was a very unusual first round.

6) Bad night for Syracuse QB Ryan Nassib; not only wasn't he drafted, but his old college coach, Doug Marrone, took EJ Manuel for his new team, the Buffalo Bills. If Marrone didn't draft his old QB, who will?

5) Lions' draft pick Ezekiel Ansah, #5 pick in the draft, had never started a game until last fall. Last time a BYU guy went in Top 10 of draft was 1982, when the Bears took Jim McMahon.

4) NFL Network's Mike Mayock is never surprised by anything. Ever.

3) When the three Alabama kids went with picks 9-11, it was the first time ever three college teammates got picked in succession.

2) Rough night for Geno Smith, Manti Te'o, Matt Barkley, as none of them got picked in the first round Thursday night. There's always Friday.

1) Last time Rams drafted a WR in first round (Torry Holt, '99), they won Super Bowl that year. I'm just sayin'...........

NASCAR beting: Toyota Owners 400 preview

After back-to-back races at 1.5-mile tracks, the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series shifts to the short ¾-mile track at Richmond International Raceway Saturday.

High drama followed Matt Kenseth’s win at Kansas last week after his No. 20 car was suspended for six races following a failed engine inspection. NASCAR came down hard on Joe Gibbs Racing with many other sanctions, including suspending crew chief Jason Ratcliff for six races and fining him $200,000.

Here’s a look at this week’s favorite, a live dog and a long shot for bettors to consider:

Favorite: Kyle Busch (+500)

Busch had a rough race last week in Kansas, but has enjoyed plenty of success at Richmond. He leads all drivers with a 5.4 average finish and has won the spring race three consecutive times from 2009-12. Busch has four wins, 12 top-fives, 13 top-10s and one pole in his last 16 starts at RIR.

Live dog: Kevin Harvick (+1,400)

Harvick ranks second out of 48 drivers with an average place of 7.5 in the last eight seasons at Richmond. The No. 29 Chevrolet was running second at one point of last week’s race in Kansas before slipping to 12th. Harvick has two wins, six top-fives and 15 top-10s in his career at Richmond.

Long shot: Jeff Burton (+5,000)

Burton has one win, nine top-fives, 16 top-10s and one pole in 37 career starts at Richmond. He has an average place of 15.4 at the track over the past eight seasons and has good value at +5,000.

Key stat: The last three NASCAR Sprint Cup races have been won from the pole position. Twenty-two of the 113 NASCAR Sprint Cup races at Richmond International Raceway have been won from the pole.

Notable quotable:

"To crush Joe Gibbs like that and say he can't win an owner's championship with the 20 this year, I just can't wrap my arms around that. It just blows me away. The same for (crew chief) Jason Ratcliff. I don't feel bad for myself at all, but for Jason and Joe, I couldn't feel any worse. There are no more reputable, hard-working, honest guys than them two. I feel really bad for them." – Kenseth on the sanctions handed down by NASCAR on Joe Gibbs Racing.

Armadillo's Write-Up

Friday, April 26

Boston led 53-49/48-42 at halftime of first two games, then went out in second half and scored 25-23 points; thats 48 points in 48:00 in second half of games in this series. Knicks won last five games with Celtics, by 3-15-19-7-16 points, they made just 16-56 behind arc in two visits to Boston, winning by 3-15 points. Boston's dilemma is that Knicks have three PGs better than anyone playing for Celtics. Playing at home will help C's, but gaps between games helps NY as much as Boston, since they're both old teams. Five of six series games this year stayed under the total, including both games in this series.

Golden State shot 64.4% from floor, 14-25 behind arc, as they whacked Nuggets 131-117 in Game 2, winning without Lee, who is out for season (hip flexor). Denver bench was +5 in Game 2- they outscored Warriors 28-15 on foul line, but when a team's eFG% is 73.4%, they ain't losing. Question now is, what do they for encore as scene shifts to Oakland for Game 3? Denver won four of six vs Golden State this season, splitting pair here, with games decided by total of seven points. Denver got to the foul line 65 times in first two games, compared to 35 for Golden State, but Nuggets are just 12-42 behind arc so far in series.

Nash is hurt, Blake is hurt, Bryant is hurt, Lakers lost first two series games by 12-11 points, trailing both by 8 at half. Spurs shot under 39% in three of five games vs Lakers, but are 4-1 in those games, winning by 2-3-12-11 points; they split pair with Lakers in Staples, with two games decided by total of seven points. LA is +20 in FT's tried in five series games this year, but its bench is -78 in series so far. Ginobili was +38 in last two games, with +19 in 19 minutes in both games. Hard to gauge the Spurs on road, since they rested guys so much during season; opposite will be true here- they'll be gung-ho to get sweep and gets some time off before next series, against much more formidable opponent.

Friday's NBA playoff action: What bettors need to know
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

New York Knicks at Boston Celtics (-3, 182.5)

New York leads series 2-0.

The New York Knicks feature the league's leading scorer in Carmelo Anthony, but it's the team's defense that has driven home one point to the Boston Celtics: You can't win if you can't score. Boston will attempt to dig out of a 2-0 hole in the best-of-seven Eastern Conference series when they host the Knicks on Friday night. It figures to be an emotionally charged atmosphere in the first home game for the Celtics since the Boston Marathon bombings.

Anthony has done his part by pouring in 70 points in the first two games, but New York has taken control by suffocating Boston in the second half of each contest. The Celtics are averaging a meager 74.5 points and have been limited to 25 and 23 points, respectively, after halftime. The latter mark tied an NBA postseason record for the fewest points scored in a half. "We know when we really buckle down on the defensive end, it's been hard for teams," Anthony understated.

TV: 8 p.m. ET, ESPN, MSG (New York), CSNNE (Boston)

ABOUT THE KNICKS: Anthony has continued his brilliant play by scoring at least 30 points in nine of his last 10 games and Sixth Man of the Year J.R. Smith is delivering his typical spark off the bench to carry New York's offense. Still, one of the biggest keys for the Knicks has been guard Raymond Felton, who has totaled 29 points and is the only other player on the team to score in double figures in both games. "He's killing us," Celtics coach Doc Rivers said. "Getting into the paint, attacking us. ... We have to do a better job on that. Wish I could make a better statement. We have to keep him out of the paint."

ABOUT THE CELTICS: One of Boston's biggest question marks entering the series was the health of center Kevin Garnett, who missed 10 of the final 13 games of the regular season with a sprained ankle. Garnett has scored 22 points in the first two games and was saddled with foul trouble throughout Tuesday's 87-71 loss. Complicating matters is that the Garnett suffered a hip injury in Game 2, which Rivers likened to a hip-pointer in football. Rivers pronounced Garnett is "good to go," while noting how problematic the early fouls were in Game 2. "It hurt us, it was clear," Rivers said. "He really never was allowed to get his rhythm again."

TRENDS:

* Under is 5-0 in the last five meetings.
* Under is 5-1 in the last six meetings in Boston.
* Knicks are 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings in Boston.
* Knicks are 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings.
* Road team is 10-4 ATS in the last 14 meetings.

BUZZER BEATERS:

1. New York is averaging 86 points in the series, 14 below its regular-season mark.

2. The Celtics have shot a combined 14-of-62 (22.6 percent) in the second half of the first two contests.

3. Knicks backup C Kenyon Martin has been a force on the backboards, averaging 10 rebounds in the series.

San Antonio Spurs at Los Angeles Lakers (+4.5, 187.5)

San Antonio leads series 2-0.

The Los Angeles Lakers are in dire need of a victory entering Friday's Game 3 of their Western Conference playoff series against the San Antonio Spurs. However, their home court may not prove be much of an advantage if they are unable to get their guard unit out of the infirmary. Los Angeles is expected to be without its top four backcourt players Friday after starting guards Steve Nash and Steve Blake suffered hamstring injuries in Wednesday's Game 2.

The Lakers are already without superstar Kobe Bryant and top reserve guard Jodie Meeks missed Game 2 with a sprained ankle, making a comeback against the Spurs even more daunting. San Antonio had its own injury concerns entering the series, but ailing guards Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili appear to be on the mend after both were hobbled down the stretch. Parker's performance on Wednesday could be an ominous sign for Los Angeles after he broke loose for 24 of his 28 points in the second half to break the game open.

TV: 10:30 p.m. ET, ESPN, Fox Sports Southwest (San Antonio), Time Warner Cable SportsNet (Los Angeles)

ABOUT THE SPURS: Parker was having the best season of his career until suffering a severely sprained ankle on March 1. He was the driving force during a scintillating stretch in which San Antonio won 16 of 17 games, scoring at least 30 points six times in a span of nine games to elevate himself into MVP consideration. Parker has also been fighting knee, shin and neck injuries, but he dominated the second half Wednesday and later admitted it was the best he's felt "by far" since hurting his ankle. "He's getting his rhythm back," teammate Tim Duncan said after the game. "He felt good tonight. He shot the ball well tonight. He looked like Tony of midseason tonight and that's great for us."

ABOUT THE LAKERS: Blake has been ruled out and Nash and Meeks are listed as doubtful for Friday, which fill force the Lakers to rely on second-year guards Darius Morris and Andrew Goudelock along with journeyman Chris Duhon, who did not even play Wednesday. The strategy of forcing the offense through the big men failed when center Dwight Howard encountered foul trouble and scored only six of his 16 points after halftime in Game 2. Forward Pau Gasol also disappeared in the second half, managing only three points and one rebound following a 16-point, 16-board performance in the opener. Blake could wind up being the hardest player to replace after he buried 17 3-pointers in his last five games.

TRENDS:

* Under is 9-2 in the last 11 meetings in Los Angeles.
* Under is 20-7 in the last 27 meetings.
* Spurs are 5-2 ATS in the last seven meetings.
* Favorite is 5-2 ATS in the last seven meetings.

BUZZER BEATERS:

1. Duncan - who turned 37 Thursday - and coach Gregg Popovich surpassed Bryant and Phil Jackson on Wednesday for the most career postseason wins by a player-coach duo with 119.

2. Mike D'Antoni is the first coach in franchise history to lose his first two playoff games with the Lakers.

3. San Antonio has a 72-34 edge in bench points through the first two games.

Denver Nuggets at Golden State Warriors (-1, 212.5)

Series tied 1-1.

No David Lee, no problem for the Golden State Warriors. The Warriors won without their All-Star in Game 2 and will be looking to take the series lead when they host the Denver Nuggets in Game 3 on Friday. Golden State became the first team to win in Denver since January by shooting 64.6 percent in Game 2 and getting 30 points and 13 assists from Stephen Curry. The Nuggets will need to adjust to the Warriors’ smaller lineup.

Denver edged the Warriors in Game 1 on a last-second shot by Andre Miller but could not figure out a way around Golden State in Game 2. Instead of moving Carl Landry into the starting lineup when Lee went down with a torn hip flexor in Game 1, Warriors coach Mark Jackson decided to feature a three-guard attack with Jarrett Jack in the starting lineup and Harrison Barnes pushing over to power forward. The quicker lineup was able to match the Nuggets’ pace and its superior outside shooting led to a relatively easy 131-117 triumph. As long as Curry is healthy, that shooting should be a feature for Game 3.

TV: 10:30 p.m. ET, Altitude (Denver), Comcast SportsNet Bay Area (Golden State), ESPN2

ABOUT THE NUGGETS: Denver struggled on the glass even with Lee out and could not get out on the break in Game 2. The easy points in the paint the team thrives on were taken away, and the Nuggets struggled to 9-for-26 from beyond the arc. Kenneth Faried missed Game 1 with an ankle injury and came off the bench in Game 2 without the explosiveness that usually highlights his game. Faried getting his feet back under him would help Denver even up the rebounding discrepancy and provide someone else that can finish in the paint and make Barnes work harder on the defensive end. The Nuggets’ best performers in the opening two games have been the point guards Miller and Ty Lawson. Miller’s heroics saved Game 1 and the two combined for 37 points on Tuesday.

ABOUT THE WARRIORS: Curry rolled his left ankle late in the third quarter of Game 3 but came back for the start of the fourth and finished strong. The ankle swelled up after the game, and Golden State’s leading scorer sat out Thursday’s practice. Curry told reporters he would not have been able to play if the game were held on Thursday, but is still confident that he’ll be ready by tip off on Friday. Losing Curry would be a huge blow to the Warriors without Lee around. “We’re a resilient team,“ Curry said after Game 2. “When guys go down, other guys step up.” Curry, Jack and Klay Thompson overwhelmed the Nuggets on the perimeter in Game 2, totaling 77 points and 22 assists while going 10-for-17 from beyond the arc. Denver did not have an answer for Barnes’ quickness at the No. 4 spot and the rookie provided some highlight drives and dunks.

TRENDS:

* Over is 16-5 in the last 21 meetings in Golden State.
* Nuggets are 10-3 ATS in their last 13 vs. NBA Pacific.
* Warriors are 5-0 ATS in their last five games overall.
* Over is 11-3-1 in Nuggets' last 15 road games.

BUZZER BEATERS:

1. The teams split the two meetings at Golden State during the regular season, with the Nuggets grabbing a 107-101 overtime victory on Nov. 10 and the Warriors responding with a 106-105 triumph 19 days later.

2. Golden State’s 64.6-percent shooting effort was the highest in a playoff game since the Utah Jazz shot 65.1 percent in a win over Phoenix on April 25, 1991.

3. Faried could move back into the starting lineup in Game 3.

Three struggling pitchers desperate for good outings
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Friday's MLB schedule features some pitchers coming off poor outings in their last starts.

Here are three hurlers looking to bounce back:

Scott Kazmir, Cleveland Indians (0-0, 16.20 ERA)

Kazmir made just his second start since the 2010 season on April 20 versus the Houston Astros. He gave up six earned runs on eight hits in 3 1/3 innings of work, but the Indians won the game 19-6.

The lefty pitched in the Atlantic League and in Puerto Rico in 2012 after being unable to find a big-league team that wanted his services.

His fastball is back up around 91 mph which is the same velocity he had in 2010, his last full season in the majors.

The Tribe are on the road in Kansas City on Friday. The Royals will counter with Ervin Santana.

Jonathan Sanchez, Pittsburgh Pirates (0-2, 11.12 ERA)

Sanchez is having a tough time adjusting to life in Pittsburgh. The lefty has pitched just 11 1/3 innings in three starts. He lasted just three innings in his previous start, giving up two earned runs on four hits and throwing 74 pitches in doing so.

There were even rumblings that Sanchez could make his way to the Pirates' bullpen following his poor outing last Sunday.

Sanchez's 2.29 WHIP ranks 198th in the National League, just nine spots above last-placed Josh Wall of the Los Angeles Dodgers (2.75).

The Bucs open a three-game set in St. Louis on Friday. Sanchez had one outing versus the Cards in 2012. He went 5 2/3 innings giving up six earned runs, six hits and six walks.

Aaron Harang, Seattle Mariners (0-2, 10.24 ERA)

Harang is coming off an awful start versus the Texas Rangers on April 21. The big righty threw 105 pitches in 4 2/3 innings of work, surrendering eight earned runs on eight hits. The Rangers pounded three home runs off Harang en route to the 11-3 victory.

Harang has taken the loss in both of his starts in 2013. He has yielded 15 hits in 9 2/3 innings of work thus far.

Seattle continues its series with the Los Angeles Angels at Safeco Field on Friday. Harang had a 2.08 ERA versus the Angels in two starts last season. He surrendered three earned runs in 13 innings pitched.
