Harden, Westbrook power Rockets to eighth straight win
November 19, 2019
By The Associated Press

HOUSTON (AP) James Harden scored 36 points, Russell Westbrook had 28 points and a triple-double, and the Houston Rockets coasted to their eighth straight win, 132-108 over the Portland Trail Blazers on Monday night.

Westbrook had 13 rebounds and 10 assists for his third triple-double of the season and the 141st of his career after sitting out to rest in Houston's last game on Saturday night.

The Rockets led by double digits for most of this one on a night they got starters Clint Capela and Danuel House back after both players had missed time with injuries.

Capela added a season-high 22 points and had 20 rebounds to become the first Rocket to have at least 20 rebounds in four straight games since Hall of Famer Elvin Hayes in 1971.

CJ McCollum led the Trail Blazers with 25 points in a game where Damian Lillard shot just 4 of 15 and had 13 points.

MAVERICKS 117, SPURS 110

DALLAS (AP) - Luka Doncic scored a career-high 42 points in his sixth triple-double of the young NBA season and Dallas sent San Antonio to its sixth straight loss.

The 20-year-old second-year player leads the NBA in triple-doubles after finishing with 11 rebounds and 12 assists to go with the biggest shot of the game, a 3-pointer with 26.5 seconds to play that put the Mavericks up 115-110. Doncic joined LeBron James as the only players in NBA history younger than 21 to have a 40-point triple-double.

Dorian Finney-Smith added a career-best 22 points and Kristaps Porzingis had 18 points and 10 rebounds for Dallas.

San Antonio has lost eight of nine and is off to its worst start since 1996-97, the season before it drafted former star and current assistant coach Tim Duncan.

CELTICS 99, SUNS 85

PHOENIX (AP) - Jayson Tatum scored 26 points, Kemba Walker added 19 and Boston beat Phoenix.

Boston (11-2) had a 10-game winning streak snapped Sunday by the Sacramento Kings but bounced back with a relatively easy road victory. The Celtics led by 15 at halftime and never had their lead cut to less than nine in the second half.

Tatum shot 8 of 16 from the field and added 11 rebounds. Marcus Smart scored 17 points but left early in the fourth quarter because of a sprained right ankle.

Phoenix (7-5) was playing without starting point guard Ricky Rubio, who was out because of back spasms. Devin Booker led the Suns with 20 points and Kelly Oubre Jr. added 15.

BUCKS 115, BULLS 101

CHICAGO (AP) - Giannis Antetokounmpo had 33 points and 10 rebounds, and Milwaukee beat Chicago for its fourth straight victory.

Brook Lopez added 19 points and 10 rebounds as Milwaukee won for the eighth time in nine games. The Bucks also beat the Bulls 124-115 on Thursday in Milwaukee.

Antetokounmpo was 13 for 22 in his 13th consecutive double-double to begin the season. It's the longest active streak in the NBA.

Daniel Gafford led Chicago with 21 points in his return from the G League. Coby White had 13, and Ryan Arcidiacono finished with 12.

TIMBERWOLVES 112, JAZZ 102

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) - Karl-Anthony Towns had seven 3-pointers and 29 points, and Minnesota handed Utah its first home loss.

Without second-leading scorer Andrew Wiggins, the Timberwolves held the Jazz to 36.8% shooting and were bolstered by Jeff Teague's 21 points and 11 assists.

Kelan Martin had seven of his 14 points in Minnesota's decisive run in the fourth quarter, and Robert Covington added 15 points.

Bojan Bogdanovic scored 18 points before fouling out and Donovan Mitchell had 17 points on 5-for-24 shooting for Utah.

RAPTORS 132, HORNETS 96

TORONTO (AP) - OG Anunoby scored a career-high 24 points before being poked in the right eye for the second time in four games, Pascal Siakam had 20 points and Toronto routed Charlotte.

Norman Powell scored 17 points, rookie Terence Davis got all of his career-high 16 points in the fourth quarter and Rondae Hollis-Jefferson added 15 as the Raptors posted their biggest margin of victory of the season and remained unbeaten in five home games. They also ended a two-game skid against the Hornets.

Marvin Williams scored 14 points, Bismack Biyombo and Miles Bridges each had 13, and Devonte' Graham 11 as Charlotte allowed its highest point total of the season and lost for the fifth time in seven games.

PACERS 115, NETS 86

NEW YORK (AP) - Aaron Holiday had career highs with 24 points and 13 assists, Domantas Sabonis added 16 points and a career-high 18 rebounds, and Indiana cruised over Brooklyn.

Justin Holiday chipped in 20 points while T.J. Warren added 19 for the Pacers, who snapped a two-game losing streak.

Spencer Dinwiddie scored 28 points and Jarrett Allen finished with 10 points and 12 rebounds for the Nets, who played without Kyrie Irving for a second straight game and were held to their lowest point total of the season.

KNICKS 123, CAVALIERS 105

NEW YORK (AP) - Julius Randle scored 30 points, Marcus Morris Sr. added 23 and New York beat Cleveland.

R.J. Barrett added 15 points and Damyean Dotson had 11 for New York.

Kevin Porter Jr. led Cleveland with 18 points. Collin Sexton and Alfonzo McKinnie each had 14.

CLIPPERS 89, THUNDER 88

Armadillo: Tuesday's six-pack

Some of this weekend?s interesting college football games:

? Michigan (-8.5) @ Indiana

? Kansas State @ Texas Tech (-2.5)

? Duke @ Wake Forest (-7)

? Oklahoma State (-7) @ West Virginia

? UCLA @ USC (-13.5)

? California @ Stanford (-3)


**********

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

13) Quarterbacks taken in first round of 2017 NFL Draft:
pick #2? Mitch Trubisky, Bears
#10? Patrick Mahomes, Chiefs
#12? Deshaun Watson, Texans

12) Not to beat a dead horse, but Chicago traded up to get from the 3rd pick to the 2nd pick; here is what they gave San Francisco to get the #2 pick:
? #3 pick in 1st round of 2017 draft.
? 3rd and 4th round picks in 2017 draft.
? 3rd round pick in 2018 draft.

11) Chiefs 24, Chargers 17:
? Chargers outgained KC 312-109 in first half, but trailed 10-9 at halftime.
? Chargers scored only 13 points on four red zone trips.
? Rivers threw seven INT?s in last two games; maybe it wasn?t Ken Whisenhunt?s fault.

10) In their last four games, New England has won field position by 13-11-15-14 yards; because they win the turnover battle and have better special teams, they play on a shorter field than their opponents do.

In their last six games, Patriots outscored opponents 69-26 in the 2nd half, giving up 20 of those 26 points in their 37-20 loss at Baltimore.

9) Kentucky 82, Utah Valley 74? Wildcats are struggling with their defense early on. Luckily in this game, they outscored Utah Valley 31-11 on foul line- they made only 1-12 on the arc.

8) SMU 59, Evansville 57? Last week the Purple Aces beat Kentucky as a 25-point underdog; they lost this game at home to SMU.

7) Dallas 117, San Antonio 110? Spurs are 5-9; they lost their last six games, and 8 of last 9.

6) Houston 132, Portland 108? Rockets won/covered their last eight games.

5) Clippers 90, Thunder 88? Kawhi Leonard missed his 3rd straight game, his fifth game this season; he played in 69 of 182 games the last two seasons, but led Toronto to an NBA title LY.

Clippers owe Leonard $103,147,300 over the next three seasons.

Paul George scored 18 points in 29:00 against his old team.

4) The Disney+ app had over 10 million signups in its first week; I?m not big on animated movies, so doubtful I?ll get it, but they?re making a lot of money with it.

3) A Maryland high school teacher is facing assault charges following a fight with a 17-year-old student that was caught on camera; both combatants are females.

2) When Cleveland Cavaliers played the Knicks last nite, they were the last team NBA this year to play on consecutive nights; Nashville Predators are only NHL team that hasn?t played games on back/back nights yet this season.

1) In case you were wondering, the last NFL team that didn?t punt in consecutive games were the 2004 Steelers, who did it in Weeks 15-16 that year, in wins the Giants/Ravens. ?04 Steelers went 15-1, but lost the AFC title game.

Rockets Lift Off Smoothly

Adding Russell Westbrook to the mix hasn?t forced the Rockets to spontaneously combust.

We haven?t seen James Harden wrestle the ball out of Westbrook?s hands in order to dribble 20 seconds before throwing up a fadeaway 30-footer.

Monday night?s 132-108 rout of the Trail Blazers extended Houston?s league-high eight-game winning streak, the second-longest run we?ve seen over the first month behind Boston?s 10-gamer that ended in Sacramento over the weekend. Starters Clint Capela and Danuel House returned from injuries and combined for 33 points and 26 boards in taking down Portland and were obviously missed after being out for multiple games.

Despite their absences and a Westbrook load maintenance game, Houston just rode Harden past the Timberwolves and Pacers to extend a run that began on the second night of a back-to-back in Memphis following a 29-point loss in Miami. The Rockets have covered seven of eight during their winning streak, winning by at least six points each time out. Among West teams, only Denver has a better road record. They entered Tuesday?s action even with the Lakers and Celtics with an NBA-high 11 wins.

Oddsmakers who set Houston?s win total at a Western Conference-best 54.5 games are looking really good at the moment since that was prime fade material given the reservations over how effective the Westbrook-Harden partnership could actually be. Mike D?Antoni helped put Westbrook at ease by telling him to push tempo and has allowed Harden to do what he does in running the offense. The Rockets are a perfect 8-0 against West foes and are going to have an opportunity to make a major statement in road games against the Nuggets and Clippers this week.

Houston is going to be an underdog in both games and has been in that position only once this season, blowing out the Timberwolves at Target Center by 20 while getting a bucket. Minnesota was without typical starting wings Andrew Wiggins and Josh Okogie while the Rockets were down every starter but Harden and P.J. Tucker with Westbrook resting. Capela and House were still out while sixth man Eric Gordon is going to be out until at least late December due to a knee issue.

Harden scored 49 points and got contributions from Austin Rivers, Ben McLemore, Chris Clemons and Isaiah Hartenstein to take down the T?Wolves. Only the die-hards would know those last two names. Skeptics would tell you it took Harden 41 shots to fall one shy of scoring but he ended up a plus-16 and drained eight 3-pointers. Clemons, a former NCAA scoring champ at Campbell who most scouts felt would be too small to be effective at the NBA level hit five 3-pointers off the bench and finished with 19.

Thus far, the Rockets have lived a charmed life. There have been bumps, but they?ve navigated them nicely. Harden has led the team in scoring in every game except the season-opening loss to the Bucks. After this week, we?ll have a better idea about whether they should indeed be included with the Lakers, Clippers and Nuggets as the Western Conference favorites. Homecourt advantage can?t be locked up in November, but it can be significantly impacted one way or the other.

Harden may be flirting with a 40 points-per-game average by the time this month is over and a telling stretch of games is behind them. His Rockets have won 10 of 11 against Denver but lost in their last visit to Pepsi Center. They'll head to L.A. for the game all eyes will be on Friday night. Houston returns home to face the upstart Mavericks on Sunday and will host the Heat and Hawks after that. It will only play twice in December?s first six days, visiting San Antonio and Toronto.

Without Gordon, they?ll be attempting to develop some depth that may serve them well down the road. Ultimately, these tough tests will help decipher whether Harden and Westbrook can thrive as a combination, which is one reason why it would be fantastic if the Clippers played Kawhi Leonard and Paul George in tandem when the teams get together on Friday night at Staples. Let the four L.A. natives go at it.

Harden and Westbrook always pack a little extra for games in their hometown. This first trip into the city as a tandem will be telling.

What's going on with?

The Jazz
Center Rudy Gobert asked for the ball more last week in a move that may have gone under the radar nationally but has major ramifications if he?s successful in getting his way. The reigning Defensive Player of the Year is looking to become a more well-rounded player and remains a work-in-progress on the offensive side of the ball, but he?s looking for more in-game reps to try and get to where he?s a legitimate threat down come playoffs.

The Athletic Jazz beat writer Tony Jones joined me on the Bet and Collect Podcast to talk about the demand for more touches in addition to Mike Conley?s adjustment period and all things Jazz, so give it a listen for an in-depth view. With Conley and Bojan Bogdanovic coming on board, Utah is a team to keep a close eye on since it is carving out an identity while looking to join that top tier of Western Conference teams looking to rise up with the Warriors? reign now over.

Gobert enjoyed a three-game stretch between Nov. 11-15 where he made 28 of 33 shots, averaging 22 points, 15.3 rebounds and three blocks, clearly looking more active than he had earlier in the season when getting the newcomers acclimated took precedence. Donovan Mitchell will be Utah?s closer and Joe Ingles will remain hugely influential in his new sixth man role, but Gobert has to be the driving force since his impact on defense is so substantial. This is the year he needs to make his first All-Star appearance. It should be a slam dunk. If he manages to accomplish that, the Jazz are going to be in the mix of elite West teams. They?ll look for revenge Wednesday against the Timberwolves, who spoiled their perfect start at home on Monday night, prior to a weekend back-to-back against the Warriors and Pelicans that may feature them as a double-digit favorite on both nights.

Paul George
After scoring 70 points in 44 minutes to key a pair of blowout wins against the high-scoring Pelicans and Hawks, George knocked down the go-ahead 3-pointer to help defeat OKC on Monday night in a competitive, low-scoring game. In playing 29 minutes, he appears to be back to normal.

It's time to see what he and Leonard look like. A sore knee and the maintenance program the team has in mind for the reigning Finals MVP has kept us from seeing them play together, but that wait could end Wednesday against the Celtics.

Patrick Beverley returned from a hip injury on Monday and contributed to holding off the Thunder, so outside of shooter Landry Shamet being out with an ankle sprain, we're finally going to get to see what the current NBA title co-favorite truly looks like. The Clips are going out on the road for nine of 11 after the week's home games against the Celtics, Rockets and Pelicans, so we're not going to see George and Leonard in tandem often since there's travel and three back-to-backs in there, but the unveiling of this experiment placing a pair of elite two-way wings together appears to have finally arrived.

Carmelo Anthony
He'll wear 00 in Portland, so get ready for jokes about how 'Melo chose a number to match his impact. Due to all of the team's attrition up front, I think Anthony has a legitimate chance to guarantee his contract by remaining on the roster past Jan. 10

Anthony signed a non-guaranteed make-good deal, passed his physical and will now look to find a rhythm after not appearing in a game in over a calendar year. Due to Zach Collins undergoing shoulder surgery and Jusuf Nurkic remaining sidelined, Terry Stotts has been filling the hole at a position that had been adequately filled by Al-Farouq Aminu the past few years with shooter Anthony Tolliver, Skal Labissiere and Mario Hezonja playing out of position. If Anthony has any juice let, he should carve out a spot in the rotation. Considering he signed a non-guaranteed deal and truly felt the sting of not being offered a gig over the past few months, I think we'll see Anthony do whatever it takes to play his role. If he's physically still able to, he should stick. That remains to be seen and can't be proven via Instagram videos.

Injuries to Monitor

Marcus Smart injured an ankle, so a Celtics team already toiling without Gordon Hayward and thriving via a small ball approach that relies on Smart's tenacity and defense could be greatly affected... Orlando forward Jonathan Isaac has emerged as one of the NBA's top defenders this season but hurt an ankle at a team function. He's hoping to return by week's end... Andrew Wiggins has been on bereavement leave and missed Monday's win in Salt Lake City, but he's due back to try and continue what has thus far been an excellent start... Kevin Love is dealing with a back issue that kept him out Monday, so his status is in doubt. Larry Nance, Jr. also missed a loss to the Knicks with a thumb injury but his return is imminent... The Heat hope to have Justise Winslow back from a concussion and Goran Dragic in the mix after an illness to take advantage of their excellent depth... Raptors PG Kyle Lowry is still not ready to return from his thumb issue...Brandon Ingram is working out pre-game to loosen up a sore knee and get back out on the floor for the Pelicans, who are working short-handed with Lonzo Ball (ankle), Derrick Favors (back) and Josh Hart (leg) already sidelined.

Games to Watch

Tuesday - Thunder at Lakers
After a great defensive performance in a narrow loss to the Clippers, OKC runs into LeBron James and Anthony Davis.

Wednesday - Celtics at Clippers
Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum have made the most of their increased touches and will look at this as a statement game.

Thursday - Blazers at Bucks
Portland is digging itself a hole that will be especially difficult to get out of in the West. Donte DiVincenzo has looked sharp since entering the Bucks' lineup.

Friday - Rockets at Clippers
Let's just hope the load maintentance gets a DNP here.

Saturday - Heat at 76ers
Jimmy Butler faces his former teammates and goes head-to-head with Ben Simmons in a matchup he'll need to get the better of to help Miami pull a road upset.

Sunday - Mavericks at Rockets
Houston closes out a busy week back at Toyota Center against emerging MVP candidate Luka Doncic, who opened the week with a 40-point triple-double.

DEFENSIVE STRUGGLES

The Memphis Grizzlies host an undermanned Golden State Warriors squad Tuesday night as 5.5-point favorites. Golden State has lost seven straight and are only averaging 98 points over their last three games. But it has been the defensive end of the floor that has been the biggest problem for the Dubs, where they are surrendering 119 points a contest.

However, Memphis hasn?t been much better on defense, allowing 112.6 points a game on 46.5 percent shooting. This is a good spot for Golden State's Eric Paschall who has scored no less than 15 points in three straight contests and is coming off a night where he shot 10-of-17 from the floor for 30 points. Bet Over his points total of 17.5.


HOT STARTS AT HOME

The New Orleans Pelicans are looking for their fourth win in their last six games as they host the Portland Trail Blazers and newest member Carmelo Anthony, who is expected to make his debut for the team tonight. The Pelicans enter this game ranked seventh in points per game with 115.7 but at the same time, surrender an average of 120.

The Pels have gotten out to quick starts at home averaging 58.1 first half points a game and should be fresh having two days off. While they meet a Blazers team on a quick turnaround after playing in Houston last night and only average 53.8 on the road this season in the first half. With fatigue playing a factor for the Blazers, take the Pelicans first half team total Over 55.5.


PLAYING WITH CONFIDENCE

A Pacific Division battle takes place as the Phoenix Suns travel to Sacramento to take on the Kings. Sacramento is a 2-point home favorite with the game total set at 217, as the Suns are playing the second game of a back-to-back set after losing 99-85 at home to the Celtics last night.

Although the Kings rank 27th in scoring offense, averaging 104.4 points per game, defensively they are 12th in scoring defense allowing just 108.4 a night. With momentum still on their side from their upset win versus the Blazers Nov. 12, almost upsetting the Lakers in L.A. on Nov. 15, then coming off a big 100-99 victory against the Celtics last time out, expect that success to carry over versus a tired Suns team. Take Sacramento on the moneyline.


LOCK-DOWN DEFENSE

The Oklahoma City Thunder have yet to win on the road posting an 0-5 record (3-2 ATS) and it won?t get any easier tonight as they find themselves as 10.5-point underdogs playing on the tail end of a back-to-back versus the Lakers.

Los Angeles is scoring an average of 110.8 points a game and have held opponents to 95.4 at home on just 40.3 percent shooting. They have also held opponents to 105 points or less in five of their last eight games, while putting up 120 or more on offense in three of their last four contests. We expect the Lakers to take care of business at home and cover as 10.5-point favorites.

Blazers fall in New Orleans as Anthony has 10 in debut
November 20, 2019
By The Associated Press

NEW ORLEANS (AP) Jrue Holiday had 22 points and 10 assists, Brandon Ingram added 21 points, and the New Orleans Pelicans spoiled Carmelo Anthony???s Portland debut with a 115-104 victory over the Trail Blazers on Tuesday night.

Anthony finished with 10 points while Portland leading scorer and four-time All-Star Damian Lillard missed his first game of the season with back spasms.

Starting at forward and playing across the street from where he led Syracuse to the 2003 NCAA championship over Kansas, Anthony scored the Blazers??? first points of the game on a 3-pointer from 26 feet out, but wound up missing 10 of 14 shots in what was the first game of his 17th NBA season.

J.J. Redick hit 4 of 9 3-pointers and scored 14 points for New Orleans, which has won two straight and three of four. Kenrich Williams, who got the start at forward, filled the stat sheet with hustle plays, grabbing 14 rebounds to go with three steals and a blocked shot. He also scored eight points.

LAKERS 112, THUNDER 107

LOS ANGELES (AP) - LeBron James became the first player in NBA history to record a triple-double against every team in the league, and Anthony Davis scored 34 points during the Lakers??? fifth straight victory.

James posted 25 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists to boost the NBA-leading Lakers, who have won 12 of 13 after a perfect four-game homestand.

James is fifth in NBA history with 86 triple-doubles, but the four players in front of him - Oscar Robertson, Russell Westbrook, Lakers great Magic Johnson and Lakers assistant coach Jason Kidd - hadn???t done it against 30 different teams.

Dennis Schröder scored 20 of his season-high 31 points in a phenomenal first half for the Thunder, who have lost four of five despite two solid performances at Staples Center. Danilo Gallinari added 25 points in his former home arena, and Nerlens Noel had 15.

WARRIORS 114, GRIZZLIES 95

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) - Alec Burks scored a season-high 29 points, Glenn Robinson III added 20 and Golden State snapped a seven-game losing streak with a victory over Memphis.

Marquese Chriss and Eric Paschall added 17 points apiece for the Warriors. Draymond Green was just short of his 24th career triple-double with eight points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists.

Rookie Ja Morant scored 20 points for Memphis, while Dillon Brooks finished with 18. Brandon Clarke added 17 and Jae Crowder had 15 points along with 11 rebounds as Memphis lost its second straight.

KINGS 120, SUNS 116

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) - Bogdan Bogdanovic set career highs with 31 points and seven 3-pointers, and Sacramento beat Phoenix.

Richaun Holmes had 20 points and 15 rebounds, Nemanja Bjelica scored 17 points and Harrison Barnes added 15 for Sacramento. The Kings have won four of five.

Devin Booker had 30 points, eight assists and five rebounds for Phoenix. Kelly Oubre Jr. and Mikal Bridges scored 20 points apiece.

Bogdanovic shot 11 of 14 overall and was 7 of 9 beyond the arc. He made four 3s and had 14 of Sacramento???s 16 points during one stretch in the second quarter, then made three more from the perimeter in the fourth to help the Kings hold on.

Wednesday?s 6-pack

Some of this weekend?s interesting college football games:

? Texas A&M @ Georgia (-13.5)

? TCU @ Oklahoma (-18)

? Minnesota (-13.5) @ Northwestern

? Oregon (-14.5) @ Arizona State

? Oregon State @ Washington State (-10.5)

? Texas @ Baylor (-5.5)

Quote of the Day
?I know I can play, and I would think my reputation is still solid. It?s baffling to me.?
39-year old Jamal Crawford, who is currently unemployed

Wednesday?s quiz
Which NFL QB has won the most games without winning a championship?

Tuesday?s quiz
Philip Rivers played his college football at NC State.

Monday?s quiz
Durham Bulls were a single-A team when the famous movie Bull Durham was made; now they?re the AAA affiliate of the Tampa Bay Rays.

********************

Wednesday?s List of 13: Mid-week musings??

13) Cincinnati Bengals when Marvin Lewis was coach: 131-122-3 (2003-18)

Cincinnati Bengals without Marvin Lewis as coach: 42-147 (1991-2002, 2019)

Bengals went 0-7 in playoff games under Lewis, so the natives got restless and they fired him, which now seems like a mistake.

12) Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but Tom Brady IS NOT the best quarterback ever; he?s won the most Super Bowls, but thats not the argument:

If we were drafting football teams, with every player ever in their prime eligible, which QB would you take to start your team?

11) New England Patriots have started 23 drives in opponent territory, a big reason why they?re 9-1- their offense isn?t so great this year, but their defense/special teams are.

10) Rhode Island 70, Nicholls State 65? Colonels lost three of first four D-I games, losing in OT at Illinois, by 10 at LSU- they won at Pittsburgh.

Nicholls starts three seniors and a junior; they should be a contender in the Southland Conference this winter.

9) Virginia 61, Vermont 55? Catamounts beat St John?a LW, are pretty heavy favorite to win America East this winter.

8) Kansas 75, East Tennessee State 63?Jayhawks won despite going 1-14 on the arc, a number we?ll keep an eye on as conference play gets closer.

7) Very good commercial on the Memphis Grizzlies? local telecast; realtor.com, with NBA star Lou Williams, who has played for six teams in his 15-year NBA career, saying how whenever he has to move (they show a couple of his old houses) he uses realtor.com

Williams has earned over $74M in salary in his career, so he can afford nice houses.

6) Radford 67, Northwestern 56? Going to be a long winter for the Wildcats; if you lose at home to Merrimack/Redford, playing in the Big 14 figures to be a big problem.

5) Houston 97, Rice 89? Owls led their crosstown rivals 39-32 at the half, but lost to Houston for 6th time in a row.

Cougars scored 65 points in the second half.

4) Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2-8 ATS) are the worst NFL team against the pointspread so far this season.

3) Montana Tech 74, Montana 72? Griz were in the NCAA?s the last two years, but lost their first two D-I games this month, then lose here to the Orediggers, who play in the Frontier League. This was Montana?s first loss to a non-D-I team since they lost to Alaska-Anchorage in 2002- their last losing season was in 2008.

2) Boston U 78, South Carolina 70? Gamecocks were in Final Four three years ago, but are 36-33 since then, 18-18 in SEC games. SEC teams shouldn?t lose to Patriot League teams.

1) A student manager for South Carolina?s football team got fired after he was arrested for public disorderly conduct when he got into a fight with a guy on Halloween night who dressed up as South Carolina football coach Will Muschamp.

SEARCHING FOR OFFENSE EARLY

The Brooklyn Nets have not found much success early in games averaging just 48.7 first half points in their last three games, and only put up 35 at home last time out to the Pacers. Today, the Nets host a Charlotte Hornets team who haven?t been much better when it comes to quick starts, averaging 51.3 first half points.

With Kyrie Irving out for a third straight game, expect a lower scoring first half. That has also been a common trend when these teams meet, with the average score over their most recent 10 games coming in at 55-52 for the Hornets. Bet Under the first half game total of 113.5.


HEATING UP THE HOME COURT

The Miami Heat are 10.5-point favorites as they host the Cleveland Cavaliers tonight and for good reason as they have been perfect at home so far this season. Miami has won all five home games, covering the spread in each instance, and have won 16 straight contests when playing the Cavs at home.

Miami has really turned up the heat on the defensive end at home, holding opponents to 100 points per contest and is going up against a Cavaliers team that is scoring only 102.1 on the road. With Cleveland failing to eclipse 100 points in three of its last four games and facing a Miami team, which held them to 97 points and 25 percent shooting from beyond the arc at home back on Nov. 14, expect the Heat's defense to take over once again. Bet Under the Cavaliers team total of 101.5.


OUT FOR REVENGE

The Utah Jazz takes their elite defense, which is tied with the Lakers for giving up the fewest points per game in the Association at 101.1, on the road as they travel to Minnesota to take on a Timberwolves team that will be playing without Andrew Wiggins.

These teams are playing the second half of a home-and-home series, where Minnesota upset the Jazz 112-102 as 9.5-point underdogs in Utah on Nov. 18 and held the Jazz to only 36.5 percent shooting from the floor.

It?s not very often you get an immediate shot at redemption like this. Expect the Jazz to clean up their mistakes and find their groove offensively versus a T-wolves squad surrendering 117.3 points per game. Take Utah to cover the 3-point spread.


OFFENSE VS. DEFENSE

The Denver Nuggets are 1-point home favorites as they host the Houston Rockets. Houston has won eight straight contests overall, eight straight versus Western Conference opponents, and nine of the most recent 10 in the head-to-head versus Denver.

Except for their two most recent games against the Hawks and Grizzlies, the Nuggets have not put up many points per game. But they haven't had to, as they?ve held opponents to 100.4 points per game at home. However, with the way the Rockets are shooting, averaging 122.7 points over their most recent three games, the Nuggets might struggle to keep up offensively. Side with the Rockets as slight road dogs.


DYNAMIC DUO DEBUT?

The Boston Celtics currently possess the NBA's best record at 11-2 and travel to Los Angeles to take on a Clippers team that many are picking to represent the West in the Finals. Unfortunately for L.A., Kawhi Leonard is once again listed as questionable (knee), as we eagerly await seeing Paul George and Kawhi take the court for the first time together this season.

The Clippers have won eight of nine home games and have been a profitable bet in the process, covering the spread in seven of those nine games. The Clippers have also been money as a favorite, going 8-2 ATS in that situation. If Leonard is good to go, expect a big effort from the Clippers at home and bet them to cover as 5.5-point favorites.

Simmons hits first 3; 76ers drop Knicks
November 20, 2019
By The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES (AP) Lou Williams scored 27 points, Kawhi Leonard and Paul George combined for 42 points in their first game together for the Clippers, and Los Angeles rallied to edge the Boston Celtics 107-104 in overtime Wednesday night.

George scored 25 points. Leonard added 17 and blocked Kemba Walker's potential tying 3-point attempt after injury and rehab had prevented them from playing in the same game over the season's first 14 games.

The Clippers improved to 9-1 at home after rallying from a 10-point deficit in the fourth.

Jayson Tatum led the Celtics with 30 points and Marcus Smart and Brad Wanamaker added 14 apiece.

Williams hit a go-ahead 3-pointer with 31 seconds remaining in regulation. After a timeout, Tatum hit a 3-pointer with George falling down defending him to tie it 97-all with 13 seconds left.

MAVERICKS 142, WARRIORS 94

DALLAS (AP) - Luka Doncic scored 33 of his 35 points in the first half and had yet another triple-double to help Dallas rout short-handed Golden State.

Doncic fell a point short of matching Dirk Nowitzki's team record set Nov. 3, 2009, against Utah. In just 17 minutes, Doncic was 10 for 11 from the floor, making 6 of 7 3-pointers, and hit 7 of 8 free throws.

The second-year star from Slovenia had 22 points, five assists and five rebounds in the first quarter alone. He played only 25 minutes total, but still managed 10 rebounds and 11 assists.

Doncic was coming off a 40-point triple-double Monday night against San Antonio, and has an NBA-best seven triple-doubles in 14 games this season.

The Mavericks never trailed and tied a franchise record with 22 3-pointers while sending Golden State to its worst loss since a 1973 playoff game.

Tim Hardaway Jr. added 20 for Dallas. Kristaps Porzingis had 14 points and 10 rebounds for his fourth-straight double-double. Eric Paschall led the Warriors with 22 points.

NUGGETS 105, ROCKETS 95

DENVER (AP) - Nikola Jokic had 27 points and 12 rebounds, Denver played smothering defense on James Harden and the Nuggets snapped Houston's eight-game winning streak.

Harden had 27 points, ending his string of eight consecutive games of 36 or more. He was 8 of 16 from the floor as the Rockets were held under 100 points for the first time this season. Denver is 7-0 this season when keeping an opponent below 100.

Russell Westbrook scored 25 points on 8-of-22 shooting for Houston, and Clint Capela had 21 rebounds.

76ERS 109, KNICKS 104

PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Ben Simmons hit the first 3-pointer of his career and had 18 points and 13 assists to lead Philadelphia past New York.

Mike Scott's fourth 3-pointer with 1:29 left stretched the Sixers' lead to 99-95 and they held on after New York's Marcus Morris hit a pair of 3s in the final 10 seconds. Joel Embiid had 23 points and 13 rebounds, and Scott scored 12 points.

Simmons did the improbable when he fired a 24-footer from the corner in front of the 76ers' bench, sending the crowd into a frenzy. Simmons received a lengthy standing ovation for the first 3-pointer after 17 misses (and one more miss in the postseason).

Morris led the Knicks with 22 points.

RAPTORS 113, MAGIC 97

TORONTO (AP) - Fred VanVleet scored 24 points, Pascal Siakam had 18 points and 11 rebounds and Toronto snapped Orlando's winning streak at three.

Orlando lost center Nikola Vucevic and forward Aaron Gordon to right ankle injuries in the second quarter.

Raptors rookie Terence Davis scored a career-high 19 points, Norman Powell had 15 points, and Chris Boucher added 14 points and 11 rebounds. Defending champion Toronto improved to 6-0 at home.

Evan Fournier scored 21 points for Orlando.

HEAT 124, CAVALIERS 100

MIAMI (AP) - Duncan Robinson set Miami records for 3-pointers in a quarter and a half on his way to 29 points and Miami beat Cleveland to remain unbeaten at home.

Playing in front of his college coach - the Cavs' John Beilein, who had Robinson at Michigan - the second-year guard was 9 for 15 from the field, with all those shots coming from behind the arc. Robinson set team marks with seven 3-pointers in the second quarter and eight in the first half.

His flurry helped Miami tie a franchise mark with 75 first-half points.

Tyler Herro added 22 points for Miami. Kevin Love had 25 points and 13 rebounds for Cleveland.

BUCKS 135, HAWKS 127

ATLANTA (AP) - Giannis Antetokounmpo had 33 points and 11 rebounds, Eric Bledsoe scored 28 points and Milwaukee beat Atlanta for its fifth straight victory.

Antetokounmpo, the reigning NBA MVP, has had at least 30 points and 10 rebounds an NBA-best nine times this season. The Bucks have won nine of 10 and improved to an NBA-best 8-2 on the road.

Atlanta rookie De'Andre Hunter had a career-high 27 points. Trae Young added 25.

JAZZ 103, TIMBERWOLVES 95

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Bojan Bogdanovic scored 30 points, Donovan Mitchell added 26 and Utah beat Minnesota to split a home-and-home series.

Bogdanovic and Mitchell each hit three 3-pointers in the fourth quarter. Bogdanovic was 6 of 11 from 3-point range, and Mitchell 5 of 10 to help Utah rebound for a home loss to Minnesota on Monday night.

Andrew Wiggins had 22 points for Minnesota after missing three games because of personal reasons and an illness. Karl-Anthony Towns was held to 14 points and struggled with foul trouble most of the night.

WIZARDS 138, SPURS 132

WASHINGTON (AP) - Bradley Beal shot 9 for 9 in a 21-point third quarter and finished with 33 to help Washington hand San Antonio its seventh consecutive loss.

Davis Bertans, acquired by Washington from San Antonio in the offseason, scored 21 points, and so did Ish Smith.

DeMar DeRozan scored 31 points for San Antonio. The Spurs fell to 5-10.

NETS 101, HORNETS 91

NEW YORK (AP) - Jarrett Allen had 22 points and 17 rebounds in Brooklyn's victory over Charlotte.

Taurean Prince and Spencer Dinwiddie added 20 points apiece. Brooklyn was without Kyrie Irving for the third straight game because of a right shoulder injury.

Terry Rozier had 18 points for Charlotte.

BULLS 109, PISTONS 89

CHICAGO (AP) - Lauri Markkanen scored 24 points to bust out of a slump, Wendell Carter Jr. had 12 points and 15 rebounds and Chicago beat Detroit.

Derrick Rose had 18 points and Blake Griffin - in his third game of the season - added 16 for Detroit.

Armadillo: Thursday's List of 13: Doing some thinking out loud??

13) In 1941, Franklin Roosevelt and Congress established Thanksgiving as a United States federal holiday to be celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November, which makes November 28th the latest it can be, which is when it is this year.

12) For me, college basketball season starts when I watch the Maui Classic, which is always Monday-Wednesday of Thanksgiving week. With college ball starting November 5th this year, it has been a lackluster 16 nights of basketball so far, filled with buy games and not a lot of great matchups.

That changes starting today, with holiday tournaments beginning, and that is a good thing.

11) NFL underdogs are 89-68-6 ATS so far this season.

10) Not sure how they came up with this decision, but Memphis Tigers? freshman center James Wiseman is suspended for another 11 games; he will be eligible to play on January 12 against South Florida. Memphis is very young but very, very talented.

9) Double digit underdogs are 22-8 ATS so far in the NBA this season, after splitting four games Wednesday.

8) Princeton Tigers? basketball team has players from nine states and three countries.

7) 76ers 109, Knicks 104? Ben Simmons made his first career 3-pointer in his 172nd NBA game; he had been 0-17 on the arc in his career.

6) Mavericks 142, Warriors 94? ESPN/TNT should flex Golden State off its national games; when they don?t play well, they?re horrible. This game was 44-16 after the first quarter.

5) Yale 100, Siena 89 3 OTs? Yale has played four D-I games; three of them went to overtime.

4) An average of 6.2 goals/game are being scored in the NHL this season, the league?s 2nd-highest average in the last 23 years, behind the 2005-06 season.

3) NHL?s Toronto Maple Leafs fired coach Mike Babcock after a 9-10-4 start- they lost their last six games. Babcock won the Stanley Cup coaching the 2007-08 Red Wings; he?s won three conference titles, and has a career record of 67-56 in playoff games.

2) Atlanta Braves signed reliever Chris Martin to a 2-year, $14M deal.

1) Gerardo Parra signed to play baseball in Japan next year, marking the end of the Baby Shark era for the Washington Nationals. Parra has hit .276 in his 11-year major league career.[/SIZE]
