    Armadillo: Saturday's six-pack

    -- Damian Lillard buried a 3-pointer at the buzzer as Portland beat Houston by a point, 99-98, ending a great series in six games. Six fun games to watch.

    -- Brooklyn/Dallas forced Game 7's on Sunday; between today and tomorrow, five elimination games, just like the NCAA tournament, only with rich guys playing.

    -- White Sox have already used nine starting pitchers in their first 30 games.

    -- Miami Marlins are 13-4 at home, 2-10 on the road. Go figure.

    -- Twins-Dodgers nightcap Wednesday had 19 walks, but none of those 19 scored, which seems inconceivable, but thats what happened.

    -- Last time there was a big league game with no strikeouts? Detroit-Toronto, back in 1985. Walt Terrell/Luis Leal the starting pitchers.

    Armadillo: Saturday's List of 13: DDLohaus analyzes the Kentucky Derby

    Happy Spring Everyone!

    I went through all my data and charts and narrowed my selections to the following four horses…listen, California Chrome checks all the boxes and is a legit favorite but there is no way I will take short odds in this race…with that said I am going to get right to it…

    Samraat: Honest horse who really hasn’t done anything wrong; last showed his grit; home track (Aqu) and distance a bit of a question but I think this guy is worth a play…

    Wildcat Red: Like his breeding and think he will be OK stretching out; ran second to Constitution who would be a solid contender here; must admit I am puzzled by all the rider changes but I am willing to give him a shot

    Chitu: Has been handling the added distance each race without issue and I think he will use his speed to get position and get first run turning for home

    Tapiture: Willing to throw out last and just missed against a potential winner (Hopportunity). Has won here before.

    The Bets:

    $20W Chitu
    $15W Samraat
    $5 WPS Tapiture/Wildcard Red
    $2ExBX Chitu/Samraat/Tapiture/Wildcard Red
    $1TriBX Chitu/Samraat/Tapiture/Wildcat Red

    Total: $137.00
    Good Luck!

      Pacers are now 9-12 in last 21 games, 9-27-1 against spread in last 37, as they head home for Game 7, in series where road team won four of six games. Indiana is 5-5 vs Atlanta this season, 2-3 here. Hawks won nine of last fourteen games. George was only 7-18 from floor in Game 4, but was 9-10 on line- he is Pacers' barometer, and Indiana was +19 when he was on court. Hawks' bench is 38-100 from floor in last four games, and was combined -42 last game. Pacers shortened rotation last game,.and it worked. Four of last five series games stayed under total.

      Zach Randolph is suspended for Game 7, which hurts Memphis. Four of last five Griz-Thunder games went OT, after OC won opener by 14; despite OTs, team that led at half lost four of six series games. four of last five games went over total. OC is 41-138 from arc in last five games, but shot 49% from floor last game, after shooting under 40% from floor in previous four games- seven of their last ten games went over. Key for OC is finding third scoring option; Jackson scored 16 in 29:00 in Game 6; they'll need a similar effort from him or another sub to win here. Visiting team won four of last five games in series.

      Clippers took 73 3's in three series wins, 88 in three losses; they'll need to attack basket more in home arena to win series that is overflowing in subplots, on both sides. Jordan took only three shots in Game 6 loss, after he had 25 points, 18 boards in Game 5, after going scoreless in Game 4. Clippers won 10 of last 16 games, with 12 of those 16 going over total. Warriors won eight of last 13 games overall; under is 49-37 in their games this year, 25-19 on road. Curry had 24 in Game 6, after he was held to 17 in Game 5 after having 33 in Game 4.

      Game of the Day: Warriors at Clippers
      ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      Golden State Warriors at Los Angeles Clippers (-7, 209.5)

      Series tied 3-3.

      The Golden State Warriors found just enough in themselves at home to force a Game 7 but might not have a full compliment of weapons by the time they get there. The Warriors hope center Jermaine O’Neal, who suffered a sprained right knee in the second quarter of Game 6, will be able to go when they visit the Los Angeles Clippers for Game 7 on Saturday. The Clippers had some trouble adjusting to a tightly-called Game 6 and Blake Griffin fouled out late.

      Golden State is already without starting center Andrew Bogut due to a fractured rib and has been using a smaller lineup with David Lee in the middle and O’Neal coming off the bench while Draymond Green takes on a bigger role guarding Griffin. O’Neal was not happy about the play that knocked him out of the game, telling USA Today, “It’s just a dirty play, to be quite honest. I mean, I’m not going to go try to dive into somebody’s legs. It wasn’t a scramble for the ball.” The Warriors gave more time to Marreese Speights off the bench when O’Neal went down and the veteran big man responded with 12 points and six rebounds.

      TV:
      10:30 p.m. ET, TNT, CSN Bay Area (Golden State), Prime Ticket (Los Angeles)

      LINE HISTORY:
      The Clippers opened as big as 7.5-point favorites and were bet down to -7. The total opened 209.5.

      INJURY REPORT:
      Warriors - J. O'Neal (Ques. - Knee). Clippers - H.Turkoglu (Ques. - Back)

      ABOUT THE WARRIORS:
      Stephen Curry had a lot of questions to answer after a Game 5 loss in which he turned the ball over eight time and finished with 10 field-goal attempts. The All-Star guard was noticeably more aggressive in Game 6 and attempted 12 shots in the first quarter alone to keep his team in the game before Green, Speights and David Lee started to provide some support. Lee and Green both battled foul trouble, with Lee drawing his sixth early in the fourth quarter, but still managed to play strong defense on Griffin (8-of-24) and win the scrambles down low. “You know, it’s a battle,” Green told reporters. “We knew that coming into the series. For the last two years, as long as I’ve been here, it’s been a battle every time we played this team, and it’s grown into a rivalry.”

      ABOUT THE CLIPPERS:
      Chris Paul is banged up with right hamstring and left hand issues and battled foul trouble throughout Game 6, finishing with nine points, eight assists, four turnovers and five fouls. “(Paul) is dealing with a lot of stuff, but, listen, he’s on the floor and Golden State doesn’t care, bottom line,” coach Doc Rivers said. “He does have injuries, and there is no doubt about that. I’m sure they have some too, but, listen, I think once you’re on the floor, you’re on the floor.” Los Angeles got another big game from DeAndre Jordan on Thursday with nine points, 19 rebounds and four blocks and Matt Barnes stepped up with a double-double, but the off nights from Griffin and Paul kept the Clippers from getting over the hump in the 100-99 setback.

      TRENDS:


      * Home team is 5-0 ATS in the last five meetings.
      * Over is 7-1 in the last eight meetings in Los Angeles.
      * Over is 11-4 in the last 15 meetings.
      * Warriors are 1-5 ATS in the last six meetings in Los Angeles.

      CONSENSUS:
      67 percent of action is on Golden State while 67 percent is on the Over.

                    Saturday, May 3



                    Game 7 betting trends: Home teams dominate SU and ATS

                    Saturday is a special day in the NBA as it will be the first day in league history when three Game 7's will be played in the same day.

                    The action tips off in Indiana as the No. 1-seeded Pacers host the Atlanta Hawks. As history can tell us, the Pacers may very well win the game straight up as No. 1 seeds are 14-3 SU, but against the spread is a different story. Teams ranked No. 1 are a paltry 7-9-1 ATS in those Game 7's. The Pacers are currently 6.5-point home faves Saturday.

                    Home teams have been a force in Game 7's. Since 1992, the home team is a dominant 42-12 SU and 32-20-2 ATS in Game 7's. That ATS clip is good for a respectable 61.5 percent winning clip. Along with the Pacers, the other home teams are the Oklahoma City Thunder (9-point faves over the Memphis Grizzlies) and the Los Angeles Clippers (7-point faves over the Golden State Warriors).

                    We also dig up a good stat about home teams coming off a loss, a category which the Los Angeles Clippers fall under. Coming off defeat, the home team is a stellar 30-7 SU and 22-13-2 ATS (62.8 percent). The Clippers dropped Game 6 100-99 in Oakland and now host the Warriors in the series finale Saturday night.

                    The news gets better for Saturday's home teams, however. In Round one, the home team is 10-4 SU and ATS, but a sparkling 6-0 SU and ATS if the home team's winning percentage is .647 or better. All three of the Game 7 home teams owned better winning percentages than .647 with the Pacers at .683, the Clippers at .695 and the Thunder owning a .720 winning percentage.
