  • The Bum's February's NBA POD's Stats, Trends, News, & Game of the Year !

    Fact or Fiction

    January 31, 2014


    The first three months of the NBA season is now said and done with, and that means that we are heading into the second-half of the NBA season. Check out some of the hot topic items as we head into February for NBA betting fans, as we decipher which are fact and which are fiction.

    FACT

    The Indiana Pacers Have Troubles With Transition Teams: The Phoenix Suns certainly proved that fact over the course of the last week and a half, beating up these Pacers twice in that stretch with tremendous offensive outings. Though we don't think it is going to help the aging Miami Heat win the East, it could lay out the formula for some teams in the Eastern Conference to come out of nowhere and challenge the Pacers in the playoffs if they aren't careful. Center Roy Hibbert is completely taken out of these fast-paced games, and he's a big piece of the puzzle for Indiana.

    The Chicago Bulls Need To Trade Kirk Hinrich For a Swingman: The Bulls dealt away their best swingman in F Luol Deng just a few weeks ago, but the players on the court have been buzzing and have this team in legit contention to be the No. 4 seed in the Eastern Conference. Chicago almost has to go for it at this point, and rumors of G Kirk Hinrich being dealt for F Harrison Barnes seem to be persisting. It would be a great trade for both sides, and it would give Chicago the ability to continue the growth of G DJ Augustin and give them a legit small forward who can stretch the floor and take some pressure off of the bigs to get the job done offensively.

    These Bucks Are As Bad As Those Bobcats: You know which Charlotte Bobcats team we're talking about. The ones which went on an epic losing streak and had one of the worst records that the NBA has ever seen. No, the Bucks aren't only going to win 10 games this year, but they really don't show any signs of improvement, and they really aren't all that young of a team either. Point guard Brandon Knight is really the only man that this franchise can build around, and after letting everyone walk last season and making that ridiculous deal with the Orlando Magic to get shooting guard JJ Redick for a push towards the No. 8 seed in the East, it's tough to think that management really has any clue about what it’s doing.

    FICTION

    The Toronto Raptors Are Legit Eastern Conference Contenders: Just because you're the leaders of the Atlantic Division doesn't mean you have a legit gripe to be a playoff contender this year. The Raptors are paper thin, and outside of PG Kyle Lowry and SG DeMar DeRozan, we aren't all that impressed. That bench isn't used nearly enough, and the team is going to be worn down. Even if Toronto, which has won and covered four out of five, does win the Atlantic Division, don't be surprised if a team like the Washington Wizards or Atlanta Hawks takes it out of the playoffs in the opening round.

    By March, the Los Angeles Lakers Will Be Dangerous Again: Yeah… no they won't. G Kobe Bryant should be back in the fold by then, but we just don't see what good any of that does. C Pau Gasol is still a me-first player in the paint, and though G Jodie Meeks, G Nick Young, and F Ryan Kelly have all evolved, they aren't ready to step up and become role players for Bryant, an aging G Steve Nash, and G Steve Blake. The Lakers are a mess, and even getting healthy isn't going to change any of that. Unfortunately, the Buss family is just too ego-driven to concede and trade any and all assets that the team has.

    The Phoenix Suns as Western Conference Contenders: Phoenix is getting there for sure. But even though the Suns exposed the Indiana Pacers over the course of these last two games in scoring 226 points in two duels against Indiana, we still don't think it is a legit contender. Winning four games in five nights on the East Coast is tough, but these games, save for the last one against the Pacers, were all suspect. Wake us up when the Suns have an inside game. These Suns are no better than the Suns that kept coming up short year after year with Mike D'Antoni calling the shots, and the end results this year will be no different. I will say that coach Jeff Hornacek certainly has this club on the right track, but don’t get crazy and start buying up Suns future tickets to win the West!

    Cross-Sport SB Props

    January 31, 2014


    The multitude of Super Bowl propositions to bet on is endless, but there are a few dozen props that go outside of Sunday's contest between the Seahawks and Broncos. Whether it's the NBA, NHL, college basketball, soccer, or even golf, the oddmakers in Las Vegas have found a way to tie in the Super Bowl to these sporting events this weekend to wager on. Below are three props involving the NBA that should be given consideration in addition to any bets made on Super Sunday.

    LeBron James points -5 ½ vs. Seahawks points

    The Heat heads to New York City on Saturday night to battle the red-hot Knicks, as Miami looks to avenge a loss to New York from earlier this month. James scored 32 points in his last meeting against the Knicks back on January 9, while scoring 29, 31, and 23 versus New York in three games last season. The lowest point total for James this season is 15 against Orlando in early January, as the reigning MVP has put up at least 27 points in five of the last six games.

    The Seahawks' offense has been on the decline over the last two months, scoring 23 points or less in five of the previous six games. In five of eight contests played away from the Pacific Northwest, the Seahawks tallied 23 points or fewer, including 12 at Carolina and 17 at San Francisco.

    Barring injury (as always), James will likely score between 25 and 30 points, but the number is unlimited. The Seahawks are more limited in their point output, as it is likely they will not score 45 points. Even though it seems like a chalky selection, I'll take LeBron James to win this prop over Seahawks total points.

    Broncos points -4 ½ vs. John Wall points

    Denver owns the best offense in the NFL, facing the league's top defense on Sunday. The Broncos' two lowest-point totals this season (20 and 24) came against San Diego, while topping the 30-point mark in 13 games (7 of 8 road games). John Fox's team kicked four field goals in the AFC Championship against New England, including a pair of field goals from 27 yards or fewer. Basically, the Broncos are good for at least four of five scores at minimum, it's just about scoring touchdowns as opposing to kicking field goals.

    John Wall is an up-and-coming guard in the league, but the former top pick of the draft is erratic from a scoring standpoint. The Wizards host the Thunder on Saturday night, as Wall was limited to just 10 points the last time he faced OKC back on November 10. Wall has scored 19 points or less in five of the past six games, including four straight games below his average of 19.9 points per contest. In his last six home games, Wall has performed better by putting up at least 23 points five times.

    Of course the Broncos can run into a problem against the Seattle defense, but the weather should clear up enough for Denver to get in the end zone several times. Wall has faced four of the top five defensive teams in the league this season (OKC ranks 7th), scoring 19 or less in four of six games against these clubs so far. I'll back the Broncos to win this prop.

    Pistons first quarter points -5 ½ vs. Seahawks + Broncos first half points

    This prop was a tough one to back the favorite. However, Detroit is facing the league's worst defense in Philadelphia, which allows nearly 110 points per game. All we are worried about is the first quarter, are the Pistons are averaging 23.4 points in 10 opening quarters against unrested opponents. That number doesn't sound high, but Detroit did put up 40 points in the first quarter against Philadelphia at home on December 1, as you can never underestimate the deficiency of the Sixers' defense.

    The last seven first halves of the Super Bowl have been hit or miss from a scoring standpoint, with the two teams combining to score 27, 19, 31, 16, 24, 10, and 30 in this stretch. There's no way to say that the Broncos and Seahawks will have a low output since it is "due" to go that direction this season following the 27 points scored last February between the Ravens and 49ers.

    It is possible the Broncos and Seahawks can score three points in the first half, but the Pistons will likely not put up 10 points in the first quarter against the Sixers. If Detroit hits its shots, the Pistons can put this prop away fast with at least a 30-point output. Both Seattle and Denver's defenses have played well in the postseason, so I don't expect many points in the first half.

      Armadillo: Saturday's six-pack

      We're going to be looking at Super Bowl props in this space for the next week. Here's a look at six more of them (LVH puts out a 44-page PDF of the props available). It covers pretty much everything........

      -- Most rushing yards: Lynch -30.5 yards over Moreno

      -- Number of Broncos to catch a pass: 7.5: over -$155, under +$135

      -- Will Britton Colquitt punt a touchback? Yes +$240, No -$280

      -- Orlando Magic points -23.5 over Demayius Thomas receiving yards

      -- Boston Celtic points -8.5 over Marshawn Lynch rushing yards.

      -- Broncos points -4.5 over John Wall's points in Sunday's game.


      *****

      Armadillo: Saturday's List of 13: Idle thoughts with weekend here....

      13) We talked earlier this winter about how the “neighborhood play” at second base was going to be an issue with the new instant replay system, since middle infielders often desert the base before the ball gets there to avoid collisions with base runners.

      Turns out this won’t be an issue, since the neighborhood play will not be something that is subject to review in the new system, due to safety concerns for middle infielders.

      With the first spring training game only 25 days away, it doesn’t seem crystal clear how this is all going to work, but you’d assume in a multi-billion dollar industry, they’d be working on it. You’d think.

      12) Speaking of spring training, lot of MLB teams sent their moving vans off filled with equipment Friday to training camp sites throughout Florida/Arizona. In couple weeks they’ll be hitting fungos and taking BP.

      11) New head of the MLB Players’ Association is Tony Clark, who five years ago was still an active player with Arizona. He’s come up the ranks in the union very quickly.

      10) St Louis Rams owner E. Stanley Kroenke, who also owns the Nuggets, Avalanche out in Denver, recently bought 60 acres of land between the old LA Forum and Hollywood Park racetrack, which has been shut down.

      All this furthers speculation the Rams might be headed back to Tinseltown should they not get improvements in their current home in St Louis.

      Kroenke is a Missouri guy; his son played hoop for Mizzou, his first name is Enos (after Enos Slaughter of the Cardinals?), I kind of doubt he’ll move the Rams, but this land grab makes it look like he might unless St Louis gives him what he wants.

      When you’re worth $5.9B, you’re used to getting what you want.

      9) Rex Ryan was giving out free ice cream to passersby in Manhattan Friday out of an ice cream truck sponsored by the New Era cap company. He misses the playoffs one more time, he might be driving that truck for a job.

      8) Power of the Super Bowl: 11 college basketball games Sunday, latest one starts at 2:30, even the game at Oregon State, which is an 11:30am local tip time. Its always fun to see what ESPN puts on during the Super Bowl.

      7) I remember sitting at a bar in Las Vegas last spring and watching golf on TV and then I relaized, it was already the next morning in Florida, while I was still out the night before. Watching these European tour events from the Middle East, you wonder if the time zone changes screw up the golfers.

      6) Celtics were 2-15 in January; I saw them play three of those games and my only surprise is somehow they won two games. They are terrible.

      5) University of Tennessee’s athletic department dumped adidas gear for Nike; you wonder how much of a blow that is to adidas. I mean, if the Vols get good in football again, they’ll be putting 110,000 people into Neyland Stadium on fall Saturdays and lot of those people will buy t-shirts, golf shirts, gym shorts, sweatsuits, all made by Nike.

      It has to be worth a significant amount of money.

      4) Must be lot of good point guards in the Western Conference if Goran Dragic missed out on playing in the All-Star Game. He's very good.

      3) Speaking of the All-Star Game, wouldn’t mind see sides chosen for that game the way they did the Pro Bowl, have two captains pick teams, instead of the stale East/West format. Have a pool of 20 guys who have to be picked, then the last 4-6 guys can be anyone the captains see fit. Would be little more interesting, but All-Star games don't usually interest me much.

      2) Colts kicker Adam Viniatieri thinks 50+-yard FGs should be worth four points; Roger Goodell thinks extra points should be eliminated. Somehow I don’t think we’ll be seeing the 4-point field goal anytime soon, and I’d be against eliminating the extra point.

      Making the extra point a longer kick seems like an interesting idea, but they would have to keep the two-point conversion where it is.

      1) Why would anyone buy a $30 hat celebrating a team as a conference champ? If you wait two weeks and your team wins the Super Bowl, you buy that hat; if they lose, why would you want a hat that reminds you your team lost the Super Bowl? It makes no sense to me, but people must buy ‘em, or else they wouldn’t sell ‘em.

                  Heat at Knicks: What bettors need to know
                  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                  Miami Heat at New York Knicks (+5, 202)

                  Miami is coming off a rare beatdown and New York is thriving with a four-game winning streak as the teams face off at Madison Square Garden on Saturday. Miami suffered a 112-95 loss to the Oklahoma City on Wednesday – the worst home loss since LeBron James joined the club – and is scuffling along with a 5-5 mark over the past three weeks that began with a loss in New York on Jan. 9. The Knicks have won four straight games, three of them by 26 or more points.

                  New York routed the Cleveland Cavaliers 117-86 on Thursday as Carmelo Anthony scored 29 points for his 10th consecutive 20-point outing. Anthony also became the 50th player in NBA history to top 19,000 career points and had a solid all-around showing (29 points, eight rebounds and five assists) in the recent win over the Heat. Miami is three games behind the Indiana Pacers in the Eastern Conference race and coach Erik Spoelstra is aware the Heat can get better. “We have some work to do,” Spoelstra said. “We’re like everybody else in the league. Nobody is infallible. We have some things to improve on. We know the things we have to improve on. We’re not there yet.”

                  ABOUT THE HEAT (32-13): Forward Chris Bosh is heading to his ninth All-Star Game while thriving as the third option to stars LeBron James and Dwyane Wade. “It’s still a big deal for me,” Bosh told reporters. “Every year, it’s a question mark for me to be honest with you. I have to play a different role and I have to play well in that role. And it’s changed every year that I’ve been here. I still find a way to kind of get it done. It’s a good feeling.” Bosh’s season average is 16.9 but he has topped 20 points in six of the last eight games.

                  ABOUT THE KNICKS (19-27): Rookie guard Tim Hardaway Jr. scored a season-best 29 points in the win over the Cavaliers and tied a franchise rookie mark with six 3-pointers. Hardaway is averaging 21 points over the last three games while going 23-of-39 from the field, including 12-of-21 from 3-point range. “I knew that if I could shoot the ball very, very well at the next level, then I should be able to help the team out,” Hardaway said afterward. Hardaway is averaging 9.1 points and shooting 47 percent from the field.

                  TRENDS:

                  * Under is 8-0 in the last eight meetings in New York.
                  * Heat are 1-4 ATS in the last five meetings.
                  * Knicks are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 home games.
                  * Over is 12-5 in Heat last 17 vs. Eastern Conference.

                  BUZZER BEATERS:

                  1. The Knicks have won four of the last five meetings.

                  2. New York G Iman Shumpert (shoulder) is questionable and missed the game against Cleveland.

                  3. Miami is just 7-12 when allowing 100 or more points.

                      Super Bowl seconds: A cheet sheet for Sunday's other games

                      Contrary to popular belief, the Super Bowl isn't the only sporting event taking place Sunday. Maybe you aren't an NFL fan or perhaps you simply want to mix in some wagers from some of Sunday's other sporting events.

                      Whatever the case, we've got you covered with a comprehensive betting cheat sheet from the rest of the sports world.

                      NBA: Orlando Magic at Boston Celtics (-5, 191.5)

                      The Orlando Magic look to win back-to-back games for the first time since late December when they visit the struggling Boston Celtics on Sunday afternoon. The Magic recorded a 113-102 victory over Milwaukee on Friday and will try to end a 10-game losing streak on the road, where they are an NBA-worst 3-21.

                      Boston is only 3-19 since Dec. 16 and has not won in the six games All Star guard Rajon Rondo has played since his return from knee surgery. The Celtics could get second-leading scorer Avery Bradley back from an ankle injury as they attempt to snap out of a funk which saw them drop near the bottom of the Eastern Conference.

                      TRENDS:

                      * Magic are 1-5-1 ATS in the last seven meetings in Boston.
                      * Magic are 1-10 ATS in their last 11 road games.
                      * Celtics are 0-4 ATS in their last four home games.
                      * Under is 7-1 in Celtics last eight home games.


                      NHL: Detroit Red Wings at Washington Capitals (-130, 5.5)

                      After welcoming the returns of captain Henrik Zetterberg (back) and Howard (knee) on Friday, Detroit now turns its undivided attention to the long-term absence of Pavel Datsyuk. "I don't know," coach Mike Babcock told MLive.com when asked if the Russian superstar was close to returning. "I'm just like (the reporters). I just keep asking." Datsyuk has been sidelined since the Winter Classic on New Year's Day.

                      Joel Ward was credited with the game-tying goal with seven seconds left in regulation after deflecting captain Alex Ovechkin's blast. Washington is not without its own injury concerns as Brooks Laich exited Friday's tilt with tightness in his groin. Laich did not practice on Saturday and is questionable to face the Red Wings.

                      TRENDS:

                      * Over is 6-1 in the last seven meetings in Washington.
                      * Red Wings are 1-6 in their last seven games following a win.
                      * Capitals are 2-8 in their last 10 vs. Eastern Conference.
                      * Under is 4-0 in Capitals last four home games.


                      NHL: Winnipeg Jets at Montreal Canadiens (-141, 5.5)

                      Eric O’Dell missed Friday’s game for the birth of his first child but will return to the lineup Sunday. Devin Setoguchi scored twice on Friday after recording one point in his previous 13 contests. Evander Kane has missed two games with a hand infection and is not expected to return before the Olympic break.

                      A flu bug is sweeping through Montreal’s locker room, infecting players like Louis Leblanc, Brandon Prust and Michael Bournival. David Desharnais finished January with six points in eight games playing on a line with Max Pacioretty and Brendan Gallagher. Daniel Briere has three points in his last two games despite being limited to 16:20 total ice-time in that span.

                      TRENDS:

                      * Jets are 0-6 in the last six meetings.
                      * Jets are 7-2 in their last nine overall.
                      * Canadiens are 12-5 in their last 17 games playing on 0 days rest.
                      * Under is 4-0-1 in Canadiens last five home games.


                      NCAAB: South Florida Bulls at Cincinnati Bearcats (-14.5)

                      The Bulls are among the worst 3-point shooting teams in the nation as they shoot 26.2 percent as a group with only injured point guard Anthony Collins (38.9 percent) making more than a third of his attempts. Leading scorer Victor Rudd (14.7 points) has been particularly awful from behind the arc of late, knocking down just two of his 17 attempts over the last five games. If South Florida is going to have any shot to win this game, Heath needs more production out of Corey Allen Jr., who scored 18 points against SMU to bounce back from four straight poor outings, including a scoreless effort in the first matchup with the Bearcats.

                      Sean Kilpatrick, a 6-4 guard, has scored in double figures in 21 of the Bearcats' 22 games and has made multiple 3-pointers in each of the last five contests. Rubles is a stark contrast to Kilpatrick, not attempting a 3-pointer all season but rather doing his damage in the paint to the tune of 7.4 points and 6.4 boards. Jackson, who has battled through an ankle injury this week, hopes to duplicate his all-around effort against Louisville - 11 points, nine rebounds, three assists, two steals and two blocks.

                      TRENDS:

                      * Bulls are 7-1 ATS in the last eight meetings in Cincinnati.
                      * Bearcats are 8-1 ATS in their last nine home games.
                      * Under is 39-13-1 in Bulls last 53 games following a ATS win.
                      * Under is 42-12 in Bearcats last 54 overall.


                      NCAAB: Virginia Cavaliers at Pittsburgh Panthers (-4)

                      The Cavaliers don’t have a player averaging 12 points or better but sophomore guard Malcolm Brogdon has surpassed his current team-leading scorer average (11.6) in the last seven games and has reached double figures in a season-high eight straight overall. Brogdon hasn’t just been scoring lately either, producing a season-best five steals while matching his highs of seven rebounds and six assists in Tuesday’s 15-point win against Notre Dame. Brogdon is also a combined 6-for-9 from 3-point range in the last two games.

                      Malcolm Brogdon will likely be matched against the Panthers’ best player, 6-5 small forward Lamar Patterson, unless Pittsburgh chooses to use a bigger body with 6-8 forward Akil Mitchell. Patterson has reached double figures in scoring in 19 consecutive games and is averaging a team-high 17.7 points, which ranks fourth in the conference. Talib Zanna had been a quality second option for the Panthers, reaching double figures in all eight conference games.

                      TRENDS:

                      * Cavaliers are 8-0 ATS in their last eight games overall.
                      * Panthers are 8-3-1 ATS in their last 12 vs. Atlantic Coast.
                      * Under is 19-9 in Cavaliers last 28 road games vs. a team with a winning home record.
                      * Over is 16-5 in Panthers last 21 overall.


                      NCAAB: Michigan Wolverines at Indiana Hoosiers (+2)

                      The Wolverines have not lost since Dec. 14 - a two-point heartbreaker against No. 1 Arizona - but coach John Beilein still was not thrilled after Thursday's 75-66 win over Purdue. "The one thing I've learned first as a coach is that the only thing that can be really consistent is your defense, and it's not, and we're working on it," Beilein told reporters. "But if (the offensive consistency) keeps happening, I'll be happy as hell."

                      Hoosiers coach Tom Crean was not thrilled with freshman Noah Vonleh, who had as many turnovers (five) as shots attempted against Nebraska. “He had a tough night,” Crean told reporters after Thursday's 60-55 defeat. “He was out there, he worked hard. He wasn’t as emphatic and decisive with the ball as he needed to be. He got the ball, but it was one of those nights. He’s 18.” Vonleh is averaging 11.8 points, 9.3 rebounds and 1.2 blocks on the season, although he has just 11 combined points over the last two games.

                      TRENDS:

                      * Over is 6-0 in the last six meetings in Indiana.
                      * Wolverines are 5-16-1 ATS in the last 22 meetings.
                      * Hoosiers are 2-5 ATS in their last seven home games.
                      * Wolverines are 4-1 ATS in their last five vs. Big Ten.
