Armadillo: Wednesday's six-pack

Six of the Seattle Mariners' top minor league prospects.....

1) Taijuan Walker, P-- First three big league starts were solid.

3) James Paxton, P-- 3-0, 1.50 in four big league starts LY.

13) Gabriel Guerrero OF-- His uncle Vlad was pretty good player.

17) Abraham Almonte, OF-- Hit .264 in 72 big league at-bats.

18) Tyler O'Neill, OF-- His dad was Mr Canada of body building.

27) James Jones OF-- Not many pro ballplayers went to LIU.

*****

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

13) Philadelphia 76ers became the second NBA team to lose games on consecutive nights by 40+ points each when they got pummeled by the Clippers, Warriors Sunday/Monday. ’94 76ers are the other team to get beaten that badly two nights in a row. You watch the 76ers play and you wonder how the hell they ever won 15 games.

12) In 1994 I was an assistant high school hoop coach and we weren’t very good. One night, our JV lost by 40+ points then our varsity did the same, a very long night, but neither one of those debacles was as bad to watch as the Sixer-Clipper game Sunday night.

You expect more from professionals, I guess.

11) If retired basketball star Tracy McGrady were to become a professional pitcher, it would become one of this year’s better stories. Pro players who have seen him throw say he has a chance.

10) Marcus Smart got suspended for three games; what does Texas Tech do with their fan, who started the whole mess? Awkward situation; chances are he’s a big contributor, so they do not want to tick him off, so they probably do nothing, give the guy less visible seats and hope it all goes away. Seeing as they’re off the beaten path in Lubbock, they might get lucky that way.

9) Texas 87, Oklahoma State 68-- Tough times for the Cowboys now.

8) Notre Dame 68, Clemson 64 2ot-- Teams combined to take 50 3s, 32 foul shots, and they were 12-50 from arc, so by the end of this game, it was like watching two drunks slug it out at 4am. Tired players. KJ McDaniels of Clemson is really good- he scored 30 of the Tigers' 64 points.

7) The first exhibition baseball games are two weeks from today; typing that sentence makes me feel a little bit warmer.

6) Texas Tech is quietly 4-3 in its last seven games; they’ve covered all four of their Big X road games. Tubby Smith does his best coaching when he’s an underdog, and he is definitely an underdog in Lubbock.

5) Suits on USA Network is one of my favorite TV shows; its third season starts March 6, with Olympic swimming ace Michael Phelps a guest star. Have to wedge watching it in between conference tournament basketball.

4) An underrated part of basketball is making layups; teams that run the Princeton offense spend eight minutes in every practice on different kinds of shots around the basket. It sounds fairly obvious, but you see so many shots missed close to the basket; have to be able to play through contact.

3) SEC commissioner Mike Slive hired former NCAA tourney guru Greg Shaheen as a consultant, so SEC teams could upgrade their non-league slates to have a better chance to make the NCAA tournament.

Interesting move that hasn't had its effect yet; it will starting with next year's schedule. Shaheen overlooked day-to-day operations of NCAA tournament for years-- he is a very valuable resource for these schools.

2) Cleveland Browns fired their CEO and GM a year after they hired them; since 1999, Browns have had seven GMs, eight head coaches, 20 different starting QBs and 163 losses, all most in NFL during that time.

1) Someone needs to tell Lebron James that Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is one of the four best basketball players of all-time, if not the best.

NASCAR number: Countdown to Daytona

I don't know what happened to day 13, guys. I guess this source just didn't do one.

There are 12 days remaining before the 2014 Daytona 500; hence, the number for today is:

12: The car number driven to victory by Ryan Newman in the 2008 Daytona 500, the 50th running of the Great American Race. That was the last NASCAR Sprint Cup Series event won by the No. 12. Brad Keselowski used that number in his first full season of NASCAR Sprint Cup racing (2010) but didn't get a win for Team Penske until he switched to the No. 2 for his second year with the organization. All told, the No. 12 has been to Victory Lane 56 times in 1,298 NASCAR Sprint Cup starts.

Game of the Day: Duke at North Carolina
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Duke Blue Devils at North Carolina Tar Heels (+2.5, 156)

North Carolina will try to run its record to 4-0 against the teams that opened the season ranked in the top four in the preseason coaches’ poll, hosting No. 9 Duke in a pivotal ACC game Wednesday night. The Tar Heels have already knocked off No. 8 Louisville, No. 10 Michigan State and No. 13 Kentucky, but will need another win against a ranked opponent for a chance to get back into the top 25. More importantly, a victory for North Carolina would bring the Tar Heels closer to the top four in the conference standings.

North Carolina has won five in a row, all by double digits, to get back into the thick of the ACC race. Duke had its own five-game winning streak in ACC play interrupted by a loss to top-ranked Syracuse on Feb. 1, but the Blue Devils have reeled off back-to-back wins against Wake Forest and Boston College. Jabari Parker is coming off career highs in points (29) and rebounds (16) in the win against Boston College.

TV: 9 p.m. ET, ESPN

LINE HISTORY: Duke opened as a 2.5-point road favorite with oddsmakers suggesting a total of 156 points.

POWER RANKINGS: Duke (-15.85) - North Carolina (-9.25) - Home Court (-3.0) = Duke -3.6

INJURY WATCH: N/A

WHY BET DUKE (19-5 SU, 16-8 ATS, 12-11 O/U): Rodney Hood loses a lot of attention to Parker, but the 6-8 sophomore forward might by the Blue Devils’ most consistent player. He’s coming off back-to-back games scoring in single digits for the first time this season, so look for the Mississippi native to be extra focused for his first game against the Tar Heels. The other sophomore forward for Duke, 6-9 Amile Jefferson, is up to 66 percent shooting from the floor this season after making all three of his attempts in Saturday’s win against Boston College.

WHY BET NORTH CAROLINA (16-7, 12-11 ATS, 10-12 O/U): James Michael McAdoo will likely get the task of trying to guard Hood or Jefferson at the outset. McAdoo hasn’t had any trouble with his offensive game in a while, reaching double figures in scoring the last 16 games. McAdoo has lost three out of four in his career against Duke, including both games on his home floor, so look for a top-notch effort from the 6-9 junior forward.

TRENDS:

* Blue Devils are 6-1 ATS in the last seven meetings in North Carolina.
* Under is 5-1 in the last six meetings in North Carolina.
* Under is 8-2 in the last 10 meetings.
* Road team is 22-8 ATS in the last 30 meetings.

CONSENSUS: 60.78 percent of the wagers are on Duke at -2.5.

Duke-UNC draws three times more action than most NCAAB games
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Tobacco Road Rivalry between Duke and North Carolina hasn’t lost its spot atop college basketball’s most heated clashes, even if the Tar Heels are unranked heading into Wednesday’s home date against the Blue Devils.

Jeff Stoneback, sportsbook manager at the MGM Mirage, is expecting a significant bump in betting action for Wednesday’s college hoops handle, and Duke-UNC is the reason.

"Duke-UNC is one of the biggest matchups of our NCAA year and it draws one of our largest nights in terms of action where we can see around three times of what you could see for an average late season game,” Stoneback tells Covers.

"With college basketball you don't get as many rivalry games as you would see in college football and with Duke and North Carolina being the two schools with the biggest national brands, we generally see a spike in bets from the public whenever they play due to that big-game feel."

But just because Wednesday’s game has a wave of bad blood behind it, don’t expect books to treat the odds for Duke-UNC any differently. Stoneback says linemakers use the same process to set the spread for heated rivalries as they do for each regular season game.

Covers Expert Marc Lawrence echoed Stoneback's take, stating oddsmakers stick to their guns, basing the numbers on each teams’ current power ratings, key injuries, recent form, and home court.

"If (the oddsmaker) senses there will be a rush to one team or another due to public sentiment he will also adjust accordingly,” adds Lawrence.

Duke won both meetings with North Carolina last year but the road team covered the spread in each game. In fact, the last five meetings between the two have seen the road team cover, and going back long term, the visitor is 22-8 ATS in the last 30 installments of the Tobacco Road Rivalry.

Wednesday will mark the third straight time the two schools have met with North Carolina outside the Top 25 – a situation that hasn’t been kind to the Tar Heels. Duke has won 11 of those 12 matchups since 2000, going 7-5 ATS, with eight of those wins coming by double digits.

As for UNC being unranked for the second straight year, Stoneback doesn't think that will affect much Wednesday.

"UNC-Duke will always be one of, if not the biggest nights for college basketball, even if UNC is unranked based on the popularity of the programs,” he says.

The early odds out of Las Vegas have Duke set as a 1-point road favorite with the total at 156 points.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Weather could impact Duke vs. North Carolina
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Old Man Winter is making his way through North Carolina and could have a bit of an influence on Wednesday's meeting between Duke and UNC.

Per WFMYnews2.com, the game is currently slated to go but conditions will be monitored.

"There is no change. We are monitoring the situation with the ACC," UNC Senior Associate A.D. of Communications Steve Kirschner told WFMYnews2. "The league's policy is that if the teams and officials can get to the site safely then the game should be played. But we are keeping an eye on the forecast."

At the very least, however, this could impact travel for the Duke fans who wanted to make the trip.

Four banged-up NBA teams getting healthy over the break
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It’s a long NBA season and for many teams they’re in the thick of the doldrums battling through injuries and, in some cases, just trying to put a healthy lineup on the floor.

But the All-Star Break is upon us and it couldn’t come at a better time for some clubs. *********** looks at five teams who can really use the break and what it could mean for their fortunes going forward.

Denver Nuggets (24-26 SU, 22-28 ATS)

Randy Foye and Quincy Miller were the starting backcourt for the Denver Nuggets Monday night versus Indiana. The duo scored nine (all by Foye) and the Nuggets promptly lost by 39 points, their third loss SU and ATS in a row.

Ty Lawson should be back after the break, which will help. Seven of their next 10 games are at home and the Nuggets are 5-2 SU and 6-1 ATS in the previous meetings against those teams they’ll be facing in the Mile High City.

Los Angeles Lakers (18-33 SU, 27-23-1 ATS)

The Lakers would’ve probably traded Pau Gasol by now but he’s damaged goods, along with almost everyone else on the roster. We all knew it was going to be a long year in Tinsel Town but nobody expected it to be compounded by the amount of injuries they’ve faced.

It doesn’t look like they’ll be any healthier after the All-Star break either and with five games in eight days coming out of the weekend. And who knows if Kobe Bryant will return at all? Los Angeles’ season could get a little worse before it gets better – if that’s possible.

Memphis Grizzlies (27-23 SU, 23-26-1 ATS)

The Grizzlies were humming along nicely until they lost point guard Mike Conley. Now, after winning 11 of 12 and going 8-4 ATS, Memphis has lost three of four SU and ATS, averaging less than 84 points per game since Conley went down.

Seven of the Grizzlies’ 10 games after the break are against sub .500 teams and if they’re to make a run at the playoffs, this may be the time with Conley expected back in the lineup.

San Antonio Spurs (37-15 SU, 24-28 ATS)

Of all the teams mentioned, the Spurs probably need the break the most. They are still very much in the thick of things out West but have struggled with key members missing games with niggling injuries.

The days off should do the Spurs well and with three games left on their Rodeo Road Trip before returning home for three, the time might be ripe for the Spurs to go on a bit of a run.

Betting the NBA 2014 All-Star Slam Dunk Contest
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Like a flashing Super Mario ripping through Goombas and Koopas, all the NBA Slam Dunk Contest needed was a little star power.

After years of being bogged down by bench warmers and D-League dropouts, the annual showcase of the league’s highest flyers welcomes some actual NBA All-Stars to All-Star Saturday Night in New Orleans.

Top-tier talents Paul George (Pacers), John Wall (Wizards), and Damian Lillard (Blazers) class up a field that includes defending dunk champ Terrence Ross (Raptors), Harrison Barnes (Warriors) and Ben McLemore (Kings).

Books were quick on the draw to release odds for the crown jewel of NBA All-Star Weekend, setting Ross as a +200 favorite to repeat. And if you witnessed his cram over Kenneth “Manimal” Faried, you likely agree with those odds.

Here’s a look at the 2014 NBA Slam Dunk Contest combatants and their odds to win Saturday’s annual air show:

Terrence Ross, Toronto Raptors (+200)

Ross cashed in at +350 last year, taking advantage of flat field that fell way short of expectations. The Raptors’ second-year swingman has blossomed in Toronto – now that Rudy Gay is gone – scoring more than 10 points a night. Many of those buckets are coming above the rim.

Harrison Barnes, Golden State Warriors (+350)

Most nights, Warriors games tip off well after our bed time (we’re getting old man). But if you do happen to be up, you’ll quickly realize that Golden State is the most entertaining team in the NBA. Harrison’s high-wire act is a big part of the show. The 6-foot-8 small forward is providing some must-see moments off the bench in the Bay Area.

Ben McLemore, Sacramento Kings (+350)

There’s not much to cheer for in Sacto these days, except maybe the fact that the Kings are staying put – for now. The rookie out of Kansas is getting about 23 minutes a night, most of those in garbage time when Sacramento gets spanked. McLemore, who has been working with former dunk champ Dee Brown, has hinted at attempting a 720 slam dunk this weekend. Wondering what that looks like?

Damian Lillard, Portland Trail Blazers (+400)

Lillard is the first man to compete in all four All-Star Saturday Night events – Rising Stars Challenge, Skills Challenge, 3-point Shootout, and the Slam Dunk Contest in one year. The big question bettors have to ask themselves is if Lillard will have any legs left by the end of the night? The Blazers 6-foot-3 guard does have the size advantage working for him – which is backwards in the dunk contest. Little guy slams always look better than big guy slams. Just ask Nate Robinson and Spud Webb.

John Wall, Washington Wizards (+450)

Wall is another tiny dancer when it comes to his fellow dunkers, standing at a slender 6-foot-4. The Wizards point guard told local reporters he has a plan for Saturday night but has yet to actually start doing those dunks. Things always sound much easier on paper than they really are, but we’ve seen Wall pull out some “contest” dunks in the middle of a game.

Paul George, Indiana Pacers (+500)

George gives the Slam Dunk Contest another go after competing in the forgotten 2012 All-Star Saturday Night showcase, finishing third behind Chase Budinger and Jeremy Evans. He was actually a +150 favorite that year, a far cry from his long-shot value this weekend. But anyone who watched his 360 windmill against the Clippers a few weeks back knows there is great value in the Pacers’ star forward.

Not sold on any of these high flyers? Well, you can always cross your fingers that LeBron James will finally accept the invite to compete in the dunk contest. Until then, we'll have to settle for his insano slams in warmups and practice.

Wednesday's Olympic hockey cheat sheet

Here's a look at Wednesday's Olympic men's hockey action (odds courtesy Bet365):

Czech Republic vs. Sweden (-175)

The Czechs (+1300 to win gold) will be needled for being a bit long in the tooth, but Jaromir Jagr still has plenty in the tank and fellow 40-something Petr Nedved is eager to show NHL fans he's still in good shape despite being out of the league for several years. Milan Michalek and David Krejci will add to a potent Czech attack, while the blue-line boasts NHL talent in the form of Radko Gudas, Zbynek Michalek and Ladislav Smid. The netminding, once the domain of Dominik Hasek, is a major question mark as Ondrej Pavelec looks to extend his recent string of success with Winnipeg.

The Swedes (+550) come in as the team to beat in Group C, boasting a potent offense led by Daniel Sedin, Nicklas Backstrom, Gabriel Landeskog and Henrik Zetterberg. Sweden has the best offensive defenseman on the planet in Erik Karlsson, and he's certainly not alone; Oliver Ekman-Larsson has come into his own with the Phoenix Coyotes this season, while Jonathan Ericsson, Alexander Edler and Niklas Hjalmarsson provide some intriguing depth. The perennially solid Henrik Lundqvist will see the bulk of the action in goal, and he's one of the best on the planet when he's on.

NOTES

* Sweden last won Olympic gold in Turin eight years ago, while the Czechs' only Olympic title came in Nagano in 1998.
* The two netminders behind Pavelec on the Czech depth chart - Jakub Kovar and Alexander Salak - have two NHL games between them.
* The teams last faced off in Olympic competition in the 2006 semifinals, won 7-3 by Sweden.
* Backstrom has the most points of any player on either team with 56 (11 goals, 45 assists).

Latvia vs. Switzerland (-667)

The Latvians (+50,000) aren't expected to pose a threat in Group C as they make their fifth appearance in the Olympic tournament. The Latvian roster is a who's-who of players not currently in the NHL; Buffalo Sabres rookie Zemgus Girgensons is the only one in the league, though several others - including defensemen Sandis Ozolinsh and Arturs Kulda and forwards Kaspars Daugavins and Janis Sprukts - have prior NHL experience. Latvia's best result is a ninth-place finish in 1932 and 2002 - and it will be hard-pressed to top that performance this time around.

The Swiss will no longer be able to sneak up on the upper echelon, thanks to a solid roster brimming with NHL-caliber players. The blue-line is particularly robust, with Vancouver's Raphael Diaz and Yannick Weber, Nashville's Roman Josi and Philadelphia's Mark Streit leading the way. Goaltending shouldn't be a concern, with standout Anaheim netminder Jonas Hiller drawing starting duties ahead of Calgary's Reto Berra. Scoring could be a problem for the Swiss, however, with Damien Brunner of New Jersey and Nino Niederreiter of Minnesota the only established threats.

NOTES

* Latvia finished 0-3 at the 2010 Games in Vancouver, getting outscored 19-4 in round-robin play en route to a 12th-place finish.
* Switzerland's best result in the last 30 years is a sixth-place finish in 2006 - one spot higher than defending-champion Canada.
* Eight members of the Latvian team play for Dinamo Riga of the Continental Hockey League.
* Niederreiter has 11 goals and 18 assists in 59 games with the Wild this season.
