L. Ness' Oddsmaker's Error-NBA total (1st TY!)

My Oddsmaker's Error is on Dal/Ut Over at 9:05 ET.

Dallas (19-9) is nearly two-thirds of the way to its total number of losses from all of last season when it finished an NBA-best 67-15. However, the Mavs will go for a season-high sixth straight win tonight when they visit the Jazz in a rematch of a high-scoring game from earlier this month. Utah (15-14) got off to a strong start before losing nine of its last 11 games to fall into third place in the Northwest Division, which it won last season. The Jazz completed a 1-3 road trip with a 104-102 loss at Miami on Saturday. This is the first meeting between the teams since Utah's Deron Williams and Dallas' Josh Howard engaged in a scoring duel in the Mavs' 125-117 victory on Dec 8. Both players had career highs as Williams scored 41 points but was bested by Howard's 47. Dirk Nowitzki scored 30 points on Friday in a 102-89 win over the Clippers, after he turned in back-to-back 31-point efforts. The reigning league MVP started a bit slowly this year, scoring at 30 points or more just four times in his first 25 games. However, he's "in the zone" these days, with those three straight 30-point games and FIVE in his last nine! Utah's Carlos Boozer (24.7-8.7) also creates a matchup problem for Dallas and I have no explanation for why this total opened about six points lower than the closing total of the previous game. Oddsmaker's Error on Dal/Utah Over.

L. Ness' Weekly Wipeout Winner-NBA

My Weekly Wipeout Winner is on the Den Nuggets at 9:05 ET.

In Saturday's 103-99 win over Charlotte, Yi was 14-of-17 from the field for Milwaukee, while compiling a career-high 29 points and 10 rebounds. He had averaged 10.3 points coming in but gave Milwaukee a glimpse of what they were hoping for when they drafted the 6-foot-11 Chinese forward sixth overall. Michael Redd (23.9-5.2-3.9) added 27 points while Mo Williams (15.3-3.8-6.9) had 22 and nine assists in the game. Yi, who is averaging just 9.2 PPG on the road, will try and help Milwaukee to a rare road win tonight in Denver. The Bucks have lost five straight away from home, as well as 12 of 14 this season (4-9-1 ATS). Milwaukee has also lost eight of nine to the Nuggets since the 2002-03 season! The Nuggets should be happy to get the Bucks tonight, as Denver has lost three of its last five, with the two wins coming at home over Houston in 2-OTs (112-111) and at Sacramento (106-105). A 'breather" might be nice and the Bucks should provide the perfect foil. Kenyon Martin may miss again (strained hamstring) but Marcus Camby (8.7-14.3) came back from a bruised back to score 19 points and grab 14 rebounds in the win over the Kings. The one-two punch of Iverson (26.4) and Carmelo (25.4) will be too much for the poor-traveling Bucks. Weekly Wipeout Winner on the Den Nuggets.

L. Ness' Las Vegas Insider (Motor City Bowl)

My Las Vegas Insider is on Purdue at 7:30 ET.

Ford Field has been good to Central Michigan, as the Chippewas have won two straight MAC title games on this field, as well as LY's Motor City Bowl. In QB Dan LeFevour, CMU owns the only QB other than Vince Young (while at Texas) to pass for over 3,000 yards and rush for over 1,000 yards in the same season. CMU is also playing with revenge from a September 15 loss at West Lafayette to Purdue, 45-22. Now here's the rub. CMU has NOT been able to play outside the MAC this year and unlike in LY's Motor City Bowl, the opponent is a Big 10 team, not a SBC one (MTSU)! CMU's defense ranked 106th in total yards allowed (450.2) and 107th in PPG (35.8). Its pass D allowed 65.4% completions, an average of just about 285 YPG through the air plus allowed 31 TDPs with just 16 INTs. However, that just tells part of the story. CMU allowed an obscene 553.3 YPG and 52.8 PPG in its four non-MAC games TY (excluding Army)! As for the "talented Mr. LeFevour," he topped 204 yards passing in just ONE of those four games (twice held under 200), had a modest 6-4 ratio and averaged just 33 YPG on the ground (compared to 97 YPG in his other nine games). Purdue finished on a three-game losing streak and was just 7-5 on the year but all FIVE of the Boilermakers' losses came against teams which are in bowls (41-19 combined record). QB Curtis Painter threw for 3,985 yards LY and while he's down some TY (3,300), his TDPs are up from 22 to 26 and his INTs are down from 19 to 9! In his two games vs MAC opponents in '07 (Toledo and CMU), he's led Purdue to 52 and 45 points, averaging 302 YPG in the air and posting a 9-0 ratio. Las Vegas Insider on Purdue

Indiana (+2) at ATLANTA

By Sports Gambling Hotline, Featured Handicapper

Christmas Day comp winner on Portland minus the points last night to make it a 31-18 free play run the last 49 days!

This free play comes down to the fact we just don't believe the upstart Hawks will continue at their present pace. Atlanta went to the Christmas break having won and covered 4 in a row, but we are not so sure this young team is ready to take that next step and extend their streak to 5 straight.

Indiana has been playing some decent ball of their own, as the Pacers come in having won 6 of their last 9 games straight up. The Pacers are proving to be road warriors of late as well, covering in 7 of their last 10 on the road.

This is the first meeting of the season between the teams, and Indy has won and covered 3 of the last 4 meetings. We will play the Pacers to make it 4 of 5 tonight with the road win at Atlanta.

Play on the Pacers.

FoxSheets/Statfox

Motor City Bowl

OVERVIEW: Central Michigan has the privilege of representing the MAC in the Motor City Bowl for the second straight season, but will be facing a much higher caliber opponent this time around in Purdue. It will be a big step up from the ’06 matchup vs. Sun Belt foe MTSU, a game the Chippewas won easily, 31-14. This will actually be the second time they’ve faced the Boilermakers this season, and CMU will be looking for a different result from the 45-22 pasting that Purdue put on them at East Lafayette in September. In fact, overall in this series, Purdue has won and covered the L3 meetings, with an average point margin of 37.7 PPG. However, HC Joe Tiller’s team backs into this game off three straight season ending losses and has struggled in bowl games, going just 1-6 SU & 1-5-1 ATS in its L7.
StatFox Forecaster: PURDUE 38, C MICHIGAN 27

StatFox Bryan says: These two teams battled early in the regular season in a game taken by the Boilermakers at home, 45-22. Since then, Purdue has gone 4-5 SU (3-5-1 ATS) including three consecutive losses to end the season on a down note. Meanwhile the mighty Chippewas have gone 7-3 SU (5-3-1 ATS) including wins in four of their last five. QB Dan LeFevour has used that time to become one of the most versatile offensive weapons in the game, averaging 278 passing and 101 rushing yards per game over Central Michigan’s last eight regular-season matchups. Three losses to BCS squads by a combined score of 43-167 is certainly reason for worry, but it is Purdue’s inability to stop either facet of the offense (giving up 149 rushing and 234 passing yards per game), a trend that has grown progressively worse, that gives Central Michigan hope. The numbers suggest these two teams are closely matched and the (-9) line seems bloated due to the Big Ten dollar. LeFevour has the heart, Central Michigan will have the crowd in Detroit, and, as is often the case, the team that wants it more will persevere.

PREDICTION: Central Michigan by 1

COMPS

MATT RIVERS comps

For Wednesday take the Bulls in San Antonio

If I've seen it once I've seen it a million times, a coach gets fired and then the team comes out in their first game after the episode and seems to play with a lot of heart and fire and overachieve to the max. I can totally see this scenario occurring here as the Bulls are still a team with a ton of talent and the Spurs are expected to be without one of their main guns in Manu Ginobili.

Tim Duncan, Tony Parker and the rest of the champs are great and should pull this game out as they usually do but Ben Gordon, Luol Deng, Ben Wallace, Kirk Hinrich, Andres Nocioni, Tyrus Thomas and da Bulls have too much of an upside to continue to flounder as they have and quite possibly getting rid of Scott Skiles will prove to be a spark lit under the players' butts and the turning point in which the whole beginning of the season trade talk regarding Kobe Bryant will officially be a thing of the past as the page is now somewhat turned.

The Spurs will try and grind this thing out as they like to do with the defense but in this spot plus around double digits I'm all about the visiting Bulls

JEFF BENTON

No doubt that Minnesota is complete crap this year ? maybe the worst team in the entire NBA. A At the same time, there?s no denying that the Warriors are playing tremendous basketball, especially at home where they?ve won seven of their last eight, the only misstep being a six-point overtime loss to Orlando. Finally, I know that it was just a week ago that Golden State hammered the TWolves 111-98 as a seven-point road favorite

However, that final score was a bit misleading, as the TWolves led by eight points at the break before completely self-destructing in the third quarter, when they got outscored 37-17. Take away that 12-minute stretch, and Minnesota outscored the Warriors 81-74.

Also, as bad as the TWolves have been this year, including going 1-12 on the road, they?ve been a very decent bet as a visitor at 8-5 ATS, including 7-3 ATS in the last 10. In fact, they?re 10-5 ATS as an underdog of eight points or more all season.
Meanwhile, the Warriors are just 6-6 ATS at home, 9-8 ATS as a favorite and 1-5 ATS when playing after more than one day of rest.

In the end, this is just too many points for Golden State, which is coming off a five-game road trip, to be laying in this post-holiday position. Look for Minnesota to find away to cover this spread, be it from the get-go or by sneaking in for the backdoor cover.

(based on a 1 to a 10 * Rating)

2* MINNESOTA TIMBERWOLVES

John Fina

Selection: Boston/Sacramento Over 189 (-110)

Today we expect a high-scoring game as the Boston Celtics do battle with the Sacramento Kings. Both these teams have very strong offenses. The Boston Celtics (on the road) are scoring an average of 100.3 points per game, while the Sacramento Kings (at home) are scoring an average of 103.2 points per game. These teams also tend to score many points when playing in Sacramento. In fact, the over is a perfect 4-0 in the last 4 meetings between these teams (when playing in Sacramento). We expect to see another high-scoring game tonight! Take the Boston Celtics/Sacramento Kings Over 189!

Tony Mathews

Matchup: Minnesota Timberwolves vs. Golden State Warriors

Selection: Golden State Warriors -12.5 (-110)

Explanation: We will side with the Golden State Warriors as they face-off against the Minnesota Timberwolves in Wednesday's NBA contest.

The Golden State Warriors have the superior offense when compared with the Minnesota Timberwolves. The Minnesota Timberwolves (on the road) are scoring an average of 91.1 points per game, while the Golden State Warriors (at home) are scoring an average of 112 points per game. This means that the Golden State Warriors offense is scoring an average of 20.9 points per game more then the Minnesota Timberwolves offense.

The favorite is 7-2 ATS in the last 9 meetings between these teams, and we see the Golden State Warriors (as favorites) getting another win tonight.

Take the Golden State Warriors -12.5

JIM FEIST

The T'Wolves have really struggled so far this year, out to a 3-17 SU mark and 8-11 ATS record. So it isn't a far stretch to say this team will not win many road games. In fact, just one so far this year. Now they get to play a very fast paced Warriors club. Golden State is 14-6 SU and 11-8 ATS on the season. They have averaged 112 points at home this season and while they do give up a good many points also - this is the kind of team they should dominate. We hate laying double digits with any NBA team, but we do so knowing our club is going to score lots of points like the Warriors will do tonight.

Big Al McMordie comp

At 7:35 pm, our complimentary selection is on the Detroit Pistons minus the points over New Jersey. The Nets have won back to back games (both as an underdog), but will be hard-pressed to repeat that feat here at home vs. Detroit. The Pistons are rested, and off a win, and such teams are 115-57 ATS priced from -13 to +6 points, if their W/L percentage is .334 or better, and they're matched up against a non-division foe off back-to-back upset wins. This system has had three plays so far this season, and has gone 2-1, with its winners being New Orleans over the Lakers on Nov 6 and Houston over Milw on Nov 9. Take Detroit to rout New Jersey. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.

Bobby Maxwell

The Jazz finally get home after a long month on the road - at least it must seem like they haven't been home in a month. Utah has played 18 of its first 29 games on the road and just concluded a stretch of 12 of 16 games on the highway. They are just 2-9 SU in its last 11 and 3-9 ATS in its last 12.

Utah isn't ready to face this suddenly red-hot Mavericks team and will drop this one tonight.

Dallas has won five straight games and blew out the Clippers 102-89 on Friday as 11 1/2-point favorites. They are 5-2-1 ATS in their last eight. The Mavericks beat the Jazz 125-117 back on Dec. 8 as a 5 1/2-point home chalk.

Dallas is 13-4 against the Western Conference this season and playing a rare game as an underdog. Utah is just 1-7 ATS in its last eight as a favorite.

Let's play the team going better right now. Utah just hasn't been itself lately and Dallas will go in there and rack up some points. With the Mavs as dogs, we're going to grab the points but we expec to see Dallas win this one.

Golden State should have a big night tonight as they entertain the hapless T-Wolves. Minnesota is generally unable to control tempo, and if the Warriors are able to get this game going fast, it's likely to turn into a major blowout. It's a big number, but one I'll give in what ought to be a Warriors rout.

Paul Leiner

Sport: NBA
Game: Detroit/New Jersey
Prediction: 5* Pistons -6

Joel Tyson

The struggling and banged up Washington Wizards take their show to Charlotte tonight when they battle the Bobcats.

The Wizards enter tonight?s contest losers of their last three, failing to cover any of the three with their only shining light possibly being the play of Antawn Jamison who is averaging 27.7 points and has grabbed an average of 11 rebounds over the span. This Washington club that is one of the highest scoring in the league at 99.9 points per game have been held to 87.0 points per game during their three game slide.
Despite the Wizards being 10-3 all-time versus the Cats, Charlotte has put together wins in two of the last three between these two clubs. Charlotte who has won two of their last three overall enter tonight?s match up after they were beaten by the Bucks 103-99 Saturday in Milwaukee.

I feel tonight the better playing team right now will get the win, and feel that team is the Bobcats.

Well rested after a couple days off and their long trip (thanks to weather) to Milwaukee, Charlotte is the play.

3* BOBCATS

Drew Gordon

Critics will argue that the Jazz are a much better team at home, which is true, but the fact of the matter is Utah is playing garbage basketball right now, and just because they're back in Salt Lake, doesn't mean they can simply flip the switch from "mediocre" to "good." Losers of 9 of their last 11 games (3-8 ATS), the Jazz are in trouble once again tonight, and here's why:

Its no secret that the injury to Memhet Okur has thrown this Utah team for a loop, as his ability to stretch the defense and force the opposing team's bigmen to play outside the paint is a necessary component of their offense. This Jazz team is playing without confidence right now, averaging 102 ppg over their last 5, which is low for this West Coast juggernaut.

Dallas meanwhile, is playing rock-solid basketball, winners of 5 straight, they appear to finally have shaken some of the trouble they had in late November/early December. Over their last 5 games, not only are they shooting over 50%, but they're also limiting opponents to just 93 ppg on 44% shooting! The Mavericks win games when they commit themselves on the defensive end, and that's exactly what they're doing of late.

Finally, while there's some trends in Utah's favor, Dallas is catching them at their most vulnerable spot in some time. Jazz are just 1-7 ATS over their last 8 games as a favorite, and on top of that, are just 3-9 ATS over their last 12 games overall. Like I said: They're playing garbage basketball right now, and it'll show tonight. Wouldn't surprise me in the least if Dallas wins outright, but we'll take the points as an added bonus.

Take Dallas plus the points over Utah in this marquee West Coast showdown.

Chicago Bulls at San Antonio Spurs

Change and effort for the Bulls will show up on the defensive end. Bulls lost their last two of the Skiles' era 107-82 at Boston and 116-98 to Houston in the home dog role. San Antonio has lost four of six and two of its last three, getting a win/non-cover over the depleted Clippers in its last. That game went over the total after a run of eight straight unders. SAN ANTONIO is 23-11 UNDER after having lost 2 of their last 3 games over the last 3 seasons while CHICAGO is 26-15 UNDER in road games after playing a game as an underdog over the last 2 seasons.

Scott Rickenbach

1* (regular play) Nashville Predators Money Line +130 @ Chicago @ 8:30 ET - Each team comes into this match-up on a mini-winning streak that started before the Christmas break. The key here though is the revenge angle. The Predators were embarrassed at Chicago last Wednesday when they lost 5-2. Goalie Chris Mason was pulled for Nashville after he allowed goals on each of the first two shots he faced. Mason and the Predators are looking to avenge that loss tonight.

Keep in mind that when the Preds lost at Chicago last week it was a tough scheduling spot as they were coming off of a tight 3-2 loss at Minnesota the night before. This situation is much more favorable for the Preds as they have been off since Sunday's win at Columbus. The Predators are eager to catch one of the teams they are currently trailing in the Central Division and they can make inroads toward that by upsetting the Blackhawks tonight. Chicago has been playing better but another injury to Martin Havlat could begin to take it's toll here.

Havlat had three assists in the win over Nashville last week but now he's hurting with a groin injury he suffered in the Hawks upset win of Ottawa last week. Despite what happened last week in Chicago, Mason has a history of success in his starts at Chicago and he and the Predators will bounce back tonight. The Preds are tired of looking up in the standings to see the Blackhawks and they are highly motivated for tonight's rematch as a result. Play Nashville on the money line as a regular selection.

The Spurs are 61-53 when playing at home the last three years including 10-5 ATS when playing at home this year. The Spurs are also 12-6 ATS when playing on three or more days of rest the last three years, and 4-1 ATS vs non conference opponents this year. We look for the San Antonio Spurs to roll over the Chicago Bulls for the home ATS Win & cover tonight.

Minnesota is 6-1 UNDER their last 7 games as road dogs and they are 11-4-1 UNDER vs. an opponent that scored 100 or more points in their last game. The Timberwolves are 7-3-1 UNDER off a double digit loss.

Atlanta - over Indiana

The Hawks have won and covered in four consecutive games and should be in great position to keep the streak rolling with four days off for the holidays and returning to play back at home. Atlanta?s defense averages about ten points fewer per game than Indiana and the Hawks are far more productive on offense in home games. Although the Pacers have put together a solid recent run this game comes in a tough spot having to face additional travel for the holidays and already having played three of the last five games away from home.

Game: Boston Celtics at Sacramento Kings Dec 26 2007 10:05PM
Prediction: Sacramento Kings

Reason: Same reasoning applies as when we took the Kings in recent loss but cover in Boston. Artest will guard Pierce and Salmons will guard Allen, leaving Garnett to get the win and cover himself. But he's more facilitator than scorer so if the other two are covered the Kings three-point shooting and ability to get to the line will keep them in this one. Take Sacramento!

New Orleans is 17-10 and 9-5 on the road. Memphis is 8-19 with a 5-9 home record. New Orleans is in 3rd place and just 2.5 games back of first place San Antonio as they have won each of their last two games. Memphis has lost their last two games and has fallen all the way to 11.5 games and are in last place. Look for New Orleans to get their 10th road win in Memphis and make it three wins in a row.

Gamblers World TIP OF THE DAY

Prediction: Purdue Boilermakers Current Line: -9 Over/Under: 74

Reason: A rare season rematch is featured on Boxing Day when the Central Michigan Chippewas and the Purdue Boilermakers battle at Ford Field in the Motor City Bowl. Purdue destroyed the Chippewas 45-22 in September, barely covering the 22.5-point spread. Oddsmakers currently have the Boilermakers listed as 9-point favorites versus the Chippewas, while the game's total is sitting at 74. Central Michigan picked up a 35-10 win over the Miami-Ohio RedHawks last time out in the MAC Championship Game. Miami-Ohio had been pegged as a 3-point favorite in that contest, while the combined score fell UNDER the posted total of 64 points. The Boilermakers were defeated 27-24 by the Indiana Hoosiers last time out, as 2-point favorites. The combined score fell UNDER the posted total of 62. Kory Sheets carried the ball 12 times for the Boilermakers with two touchdowns in a losing effort. Team records: Central Michigan: 8-5 SU, 6-4-2 ATS Purdue: 7-5 SU, 5-5-1 ATS Central Michigan most recently: When playing in December are 2-0 When playing on turf are 7-3 After outgaining opponent are 8-2 When playing outside the conference are 3-7 Purdue most recently: When playing in December are 3-4 When playing on turf are 4-6 After being outgained are 4-6 When playing outside the conference are 7-3 A few trends to consider: The total has gone OVER in 7 of Central Michigan's last 8 games Central Michigan is 4-1 SU in its last 5 games Central Michigan is 2-2-2 ATS in its last 6 games The total has gone UNDER in 4 of Purdue's last 5 games Purdue is 3-5-1 ATS in its last 9 games Purdue is 2-5 SU in its last 7 games
