Armadillo: Tuesday's six-pack

-- Thunder 86, Grizzlies 77-- No one on Memphis scored more than 13.

-- Syracuse 61, Notre Dame 55-- Quick turnaround for Orange after their overtime win Saturday night.

-- Villanova 81, Xavier 58-- Third straight loss for Musketeers.

-- Bucks 101, Knicks 98-- Most overrated franchise in sports loses to a team that is now 9-39. But hey, Carmelo had 36.

-- Nuggets 116, Clippers 115-- Randy Foye drained a long 3-pointer at the buzzer to win an exciting game.

-- Iowa State 98, Oklahoma State 97 3ot-- Cyclones win in Stillwater for first time since 1988. Tremendous ballgame.

*****

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

13) If I’m the Seahawks, I do something proactive with Russell Wilson’s contract, and get this baseball bug out of his system. He’s making under $700,000 a year; he obviously is going to get a big payday someday, so give him a chunk of it now, with the provision he stop with the baseball. Curious to see how this all turns out. If I ran an NFL franchise, my QB wouldn’t be playing another sport.

12) NFL dodged a huge weather bullet this weekend; my cousin teaches school on Long Island, they had a snow day Monday, with 8+ inches of white stuff falling in the NY/NJ area. They were lucky this time, missing the storm by 16 hours or so, but luck only lasts so long.

11) My opinion is that the NFL needs to improve the quality of its product, which slipped a lot this year. Less off-season practice hasn’t resulted in better football. This Super Bowl might’ve been the worst NFL game I saw all season. At some point, the product has to become important again; right now, avoiding lawsuits seems like the league’s priority, but that’s going to have to change.

10) South Point Casino’s Jimmy Vaccaro said his house had a higher Super Bowl handle than last year, with roughly 40% of the action on prop bets. I’m telling you, the 44-page PDF file LVH put out was a classic. Lot of imagination went into some of the more obscure props.

9) Glad to report that this: A guy I work with, his nephew was at the Super Bowl in New Jersey this weekend and met Mike Ditka, got his picture taken with him. Says Iron Mike is a good guy. Good to hear.

8) Read something on Twitter today that of 25 states that have pro sports teams, Texas, Florida and Washington are only three that do not have a personal income tax, which makes it beneficial for players to play there.

7) Why teams win: Russell Wilson was a 3rd round pick; Richard Sherman, Malcolm Smith (5th rounders), while Doug Baldwin/Jermaine Kearse were both undrafted free agents. That kind of front office legwork is how you win. Only four of Seattle’s 53 players were on the team before Schneider, Carroll took charge of the franchise.

6) Kevin/Craig Stadler will be first father/son to play in same Masters in April; will they pair the father/son together, or do they keep the seniors together and the regular Tour players together? One cool thing about golf; when Kevin Stadler won Sunday, you could see how thrilled he was; we were witnessing one of the best, if not the best moment of his life.

5) I follow a lot of people on Twitter, a lot. There is always dissent on topics, usually a lot of it. Did not read one negative comment about the halftime entertainment Sunday, so that’s good.

Everyone agreed it was a top-flight show; unusual for everyone to agree.

4) NFL doesn’t pay those acts that perform at halftime, but Bruno Mars has a deal with Pepsi and here’s another way they get paid; tickets for the Bruno Mars concert here in Albany later this year went on sale Monday morning at 10am; they were lined up Monday morning outside the arena, waiting for tickets. Can’t beat free advertising, not the kind the NFL can provide.

3) Looks like David Price will pitch for the Rays this season after all; if team struggles in first half, they could try and deal him in July, but what will they get for an expensive, talented pitcher who can be a free agent soon?

Buyer beware; if the Rays know this is his last year in Tampa, pitch counts will go out the window; why preserve his arm so he can pitch for someone else against you?

2) Early line on next year’s Super Bowl from William Hill Sports (I’m not making this up); NFC -3.5, over/under of 50.

1) Only 212 days until the 2014 NFL season opens on a Thursday night in Seattle, I’m guessing against the rival 49ers.

This week's best NHL spot bet opportunities
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Letdown spot

The Lightning are coming off a big overtime win in Montreal Saturday, snapping a two-game skid in the process. Next they'll head to Minnesota for a non-conference tilt against the Wild Tuesday night. I don't believe the spot sets up well at all for Tampa Bay.

Minnesota didn't enjoy a positive road trip, dropping three of four games, capped by an overtime loss in Calgary Saturday night. That's nothing new, as the Wild have struggled on the road all season. At home, they're 19-7-2, and I expect to see them improve on that mark Tuesday.

Lookahead spot

The Blackhawks will wrap up a six-game road jaunt in Phoenix Friday, and could be ripe for the picking against a Coyotes squad that has been playing better lately, and owns a solid 16-9-3 home record entering the new week.

Keep in mind, Chicago has a roster filled with players heading to Sochi to represent their respective countries. This will mark the Blackhawks final game before those key cogs make the trek to Russia. Don't be surprised if the defending champs get caught looking ahead to the Olympic tourney here.

Schedule spot

Now let's consider the flip side of that poor spot for Chicago. The Coyotes will pack up and head to Dallas for their pre-Olympic finale Saturday night, playing on no rest after going toe-to-toe with the Blackhawks. You could chalk this one up as a letdown spot as well.

Phoenix has been average at best on the road this season, and will be facing a rested Dallas team that hasn't played in three nights. The Stars have defeated the Wild, Leafs and Penguins on home ice in the last couple of weeks, and as a bubble team, will undoubtedly be looking to head into the break on a high note.

This week's best NBA spot bet opportunities
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Letdown spot

Brooklyn slumped through the first two months of the season, but once the calendar changed to 2014, the Nets got hot. They started the New Year by winning 10 of their first 11 games and that built their confidence. Brooklyn was written off early, but it is starting to play up to its expectations.

The Nets haven’t played in too many spotlight games this season, but they will Thursday night when they host the San Antonio Spurs. Brooklyn will be playing with revenge after losing by 21 points (113-92) to the Spurs on New Year’s Eve. This is a big game for Brooklyn and with a game the following night in Detroit, the Nets may not be fully focused on the Pistons.

Lookahead spot

The Minnesota Timberwolves have two high-profile games this week. The first comes Wednesday when the Timberwolves play in Oklahoma City against the Thunder. The second comes Saturday night when they host Portland. Both of those games are revenge spots for Minnesota as it has recently lost to both of those teams.

Minnesota has a game sandwiched between Oklahoma City and Portland, and it comes Friday night in New Orleans. The Timberwolves just beat the Pelicans 88-77 at home on January 29. Off their game in Oklahoma City, the Timberwolves will likely be overlooking New Orleans Friday night, especially with Portland on deck the following night.

Schedule spot

The Houston Rockets will be a focused team Wednesday when they host the Phoenix Suns. The Rockets will be going into that game on three full days of rest while the Suns will be playing on a back-to-back set.

Houston will also be playing with revenge after losing at home to Phoenix 97-88 the last time they played. The Rockets only have two games this week, so we can be assured they’ll be rested and ready for a peak performance in this game.

Take the money and run: Biggest betting streaks

Winning streak: Winnipeg Jets

As the NHL plays out the string before the two-week Olympic blackout, several Western Conference teams will be trying to get in position for a late playoff run. And among them are the Winnipeg Jets, who right now find themselves on the outs but within striking distance of being able to play beyond mid-April.

The Jets have rebounded from a miserable (5-10) start to the season and now are jockeying with Nashville and Dallas to see who will earn a playoff spot if one or two teams ahead of them falter. The Jets have momentum, with four wins in their last five and eight of their last 10. But they have three on the road this week (Carolina, Washington, St. Louis) and won’t play another home game until Feb. 27.

Losing streak: San Antonio Spurs

It’s all about the playoffs for veteran NBA teams and no more so than for the San Antonio Spurs, who could not care less about not having a Game 7 at home (though it cost them last season in the Finals against the Heat). Staying healthy is Job No. 1 in south Texas, so when players have to sit to stay fresh or minutes are cut down for the greater good, it’s no problem. Except for bettors.

The Spurs haven’t covered the spread in four games and have had consecutive covers only twice in the last two months. And things don’t get much easier as San Antonio embarks on a nine-game road trip Monday night that might determine how hard Gregg Popovich pushes them over the final month and a half of the season.

Over/under streak: Princeton Tigers

Bettors don’t pay much attention to the Ivy League, mainly because the Ivies make so few appearances on national TV. But the payoff is the same, and the Princeton Tigers are on an Over tear. Princeton games have gone over nine consecutive times, including its first three conference games (uncharacteristically for Princeton, three losses).

Former coach Pete Carril, whose old Princeton teams put opponents to sleep with its deliberate offense and dozens upon dozens of back-door cuts and screens, must be shaking his head. Only twice (both in November) have Princeton games gone Under (note that lines are not posted on some games in which Ivy teams play unheralded opponents).
