Armadillo: Friday's six-pack

Five most experienced college hoop teams this season:

6) Hofstra

5) New Mexico State

4) Louisiana-Monroe

3) Seattle

2) Iona

1) South Alabama


**********

Armadillo: Friday's List of 13: Random stuff with weekend here??

13) So far this season, NBA road teams who played the night before are 17-9-1 ATS.

NBA teams playing the first of back/back nights are 19-24 ATS, the second night 22-17-3.

If the Clippers are playing back/back, find out which night Kawhi Leonard is playing, then go against them in the other game.

12) Browns 21, Steelers 7? Pittsburgh has had two games this year with no takeaways; they lost those games 33-3/21-7. They forced 25 turnovers in their other eight games.

An actual brawl broke out in this game with 0:08 left; Cleveland?s DE Myles Garrett hit Mason Rudolph with his own helmet, after he ripped it off the Pitt QB?s head. Then Steeler C Pouncey was punching/kicking Garrett in retaliation. Suspensions will result.

These teams play again in Week 13; that should be fun.

11) Michigan State 76, Seton Hall 73? This seemed like a March game; Myles Powell scored 37 for the Pirates. Unusual game; only two players on each team scored in double figures.

10) Penn State 81, Georgetown 66? Nittany Lions ran out to a 25-7 lead, made 13-29 on arc, and had an easy win here. Penn State shot better outside the arc than inside it.

9) LA Chargers are practicing in Colorado Springs for a few days, to help get them ready for the high altitude they?re going to experience Monday night in Mexico City.

Charger players didn?t seem too excited about it; Rams did this LY, but then that game was pulled out of Mexico and moved to the LA Coliseum because the field in Mexico was deemed unsafe to play on.

8) Baseball stuff:
? Atlanta Braves signed closer Will Smith to a 3-year deal worth $39M.
? Jake Odorizzi accepted a $17.8M qualifying offer from the Twins.
? Jose Abreu accepted a $17.8M qualifying offer from the White Sox.

7) Memphis Tigers? freshman C James Wiseman has been ruled ineligible, probably won?t be playing in college anymore. He is expected to go very high in next June?s NBA Draft.

6) Ohio U has an interesting basketball team; they played eight guys in wins at St Bonaventure, Iona; six freshmen, two seniors. That only happens when you have a new coach.

Bobcats are the #335 experience team right now; their bench is playing minutes #347, but they?ve made 44.7% of their 3?s and they have two road wins. Good for them.

5) Only 2 of 12 Pac-12 teams (Oregon State/Wazzu) have lost out of conference- Colorado beat Arizona State over in China; the league is 23-2 SU out of conference. Still too early to tell, but is the Pac-12 having a resurgence?

4) Saint Mary?s gets a quality win on a neutral court over Wisconsin, then loses at home to Winthrop, negating the quality win. Not good.

3) Few years down the road, when Pete Alonso strikes it rich with his first huge contract, hope the Mets remember how they?re using his name to squeeze every last dollar out of their fanbase. In 2020, Alonso?s 2nd season, they?re having two Alonso bobblehead days:

March 28th ? Rookie of Year bobblehead
June 20th ? Custom Marvel Superhero bobblehead

2) San Francisco Giants hired Gabe Kapler as manager, a sign that they?re becoming more analytics-based. Thank the Lord I don?t have any Giants on my fantasy team; I had five Phillies on my team when Kapler took over there.

Lets just say it didn?t go well for those five guys, or me.

1) Golden State Warriors are 2-10 and headed towards the lottery; next year they?ll have Steph Curry and Klay Thompson back, plus a lottery pick, and they?ll be contenders again. Going to be a long winter for Steve Kerr, but it?ll pay off down the road.

Friday's Best Bets
November 15, 2019
By Matt Blunt

NBA BETTING BONUSES UP!

It's an interesting mix of games on the NBA board tonight, as there are teams many talked about as legitimate title contenders at the beginning of the season in some potential slip up spots. Philadelphia and Boston are both laying chalk on the road to a far worse team, while teams like Houston and the LA Lakers are laying points at home against talented, scrappy teams that are a bit shorthanded at the moment. I'd venture a guess that not all four of those favorites will bring home the ATS money tonight, but there are two of those games I would like to focus on.

Philadelphia at Oklahoma City (8:05 p.m. ET)

Best Bet #1: Philadelphia (-3.5)

I can see why this game may get some ?trap? responses as the initial glance at it suggests it is a little short and might not be the best spot to back the 76ers. Philly's only on a 2-4 SU run in their last six as it is, as questions about how good this team actually is this year are starting to dominate more and more conversation about this team. Scraping by Cleveland and losing to Orlando don't exactly do anything to strengthen the argument that Philly is actually as good as many believed preseason, but this team is much better then they've showed in recent weeks.

I am one of those that does believe Philly's got a great shot to get out of the Eastern Conference this year, they've just got to find out the best ways their team works during the regular season. Because of that ? and injury issues with stars missing games ? Philly's not going to be the most consistence bunch, at least in my eyes, until probably after the All-Star break when they really start to get comfortable in their 2019 skin. This team had significant roster turnover this year too, and that's always going to add in a few more bumps in the road. Losing in a 2nd half collapse vs Orlando last time out was just one of those bumps, and given who they've got tonight, I doubt there will be multiple bumps in a row for Philly to deal with this week.

So if this line is a trap, I'm trapped, because I do not believe OKC is really any good at all this year. Yes, the Thunder have had some good performances at home at times this year in losing to Milwaukee by a single bucket and owning a winning record at home so far this year, but I doubt it's long before that changes. Two of their four home wins have come against the injury-blasted Golden State Warriors, while the other two came against Orlando and New Orleans, two teams who aren't expected to do much either.

In my eyes, Philly is a team you'll make more money betting against then on this year because they will more often be priced like an elite team but not show that they are on a nightly basis. But after a dismal performance like the one they had vs the Magic, you can get spots like this where a bounce back is lightly, and the number is probably a full possession short.

Sacramento at L.A. Lakers (10:35 p.m. ET)

Best Bet #2: Sacramento Kings (+10.5)

The Lakers got caught laying a dud a few games ago when they lost by 9 as double digit home favorites to an injury-depleted Raptors team. With all the roster turnover they've had in recent months, there were always going to be growing pains days like that for this organization as well. But after two sound performances after that that saw LA win both SU and ATS, this is a game where at least the point spread victory for LA should come into question.

For one, LA closed as a -9 favorite vs the Warriors just a few days ago, and now they are hosting a Sacramento team that's much better then that, and laying a bigger number? Yes, I know that the Kings will be without Fox and Bagley tonight ? both huge losses ? but the rest of this roster is still multiple points better then whatever Golden State is throwing together as a starting five these days.

Furthermore, the Kings have been playing some decent basketball as of late, going 4-1 SU and 5-0 ATS in their last five games overall. The losses of guys who are hurt as forced Sacramento to play a much more team oriented game and the ball movement offensively has been great to watch. Not having that guy or two to key on late in possessions or late in games is obviously a knock for the team missing that talent, but what it does on the other side of things is it doesn't allow the opposing defense to double guys or shade defenses a certain way, assuming the ball will end up in Player X or Player Y's hands. When everyone on the floor is capable of knocking down open looks, that's a very tough attack to slow down.

Talent on the Lakers side will likely win out in the end in terms of the outright result tonight, but Sacramento's still got enough talent out there to keep this one close if they play as a unit. I believe they will for the majority of this game given that's what they've done each time out on the floor as of late, and they'll keep this game within single digits.

Malik Monk hits 3 at buzzer, Hornets top Pistons 109-106
November 15, 2019
By The Associated Press

HOUSTON (AP) James Harden scored 44 points and the Houston Rockets used a big fourth quarter run to beat the Indiana Pacers 111-102 on Friday night.

Houston has won a season-high six games in a row and Harden has scored 36 points or more in five straight games to carry the Rockets as they deal with injuries to Clint Capela, Eric Gordon and Danuel House.

Domantas Sabonis had 18 points and 13 rebounds for Indiana, and Doug and McDermott also scored 18 points. Indiana had won four in a row.

LAKERS 99, KINGS 97

LOS ANGELES (AP) - LeBron James hit two free throws with 5.5 seconds to play, and Anthony Davis blocked Harrison Barnes' driving shot at the buzzer with both hands in Los Angeles' 10th win in 11 games, over former coach Luke Walton and Sacramento.

James had 29 points and 11 assists, and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope scored 12 of his 16 points in the fourth quarter of the Western Conference-leading Lakers' third straight win.

Davis scored 17 points and Alex Caruso scored a season-high 10 points for the Lakers.

Buddy Hield had 21 points and eight rebounds, and Bogdan Bogdanovic added 18 points for the Kings in the L.A. return of Walton, who was fired by the Lakers last April after presiding over three consecutive losing seasons.

CELTICS 105, WARRIORS 100

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - Jayson Tatum dunked after a jump ball with 1:36 left to put Boston ahead, and the Celtics held off the undermanned Golden State for their 10th straight win since losing the season opener.

D'Angelo Russell had 12 points and seven assists but also nine of his team's 19 turnovers before leaving with a sprained right thumb in the Warriors' sixth straight defeat. Alec Burks scored 20 points off the bench, making 11 of 12 free throws.

Jaylen Brown had 22 points and eight rebounds, and Tatum overcame a slow start to score 24 points for the Celtics, who lost Oct. 23 at Philadelphia to start the season before beginning its longest winning streak since 2017.

HORNETS 109, PISTONS 106

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) - Malik Monk hit a 3-pointer at the buzzer to lift Charlotte past Detroit.

After Detroit's Derrick Rose drove the lane and awkwardly threw the ball away with a second left, Charlotte got it at midcourt. Following a timeout, the Hornets threw several screens, with Monk flying around one near the top of the key. He caught a pass from Cody Martin and launched the winner.

Monk finished with 19 points on 8-of-12 shooting to help the Hornets snap a four-game losing streak. Terry Rozier added 19 points, and Devonte Graham had 18 points and 10 assists.

Langston Galloway had a career-high 32 points on seven 3-pointers for Detroit. Andre Drummond added 16 points and 20 rebounds, and Blake Griffin had 19 points after missing three games with left hamstring and posterior knee soreness.

The Pistons have lost four straight.

THUNDER 127, 76RES 119, OT

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - Danilo Gallinari scored 28 points to help Oklahoma City outlast Philadelphia in overtime.

Chris Paul had 27 points for the Thunder, who had dropped three of four. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 24 points, and Terrance Ferguson finished with 19.

It was the biggest win of the season for a Thunder franchise that lost All-Stars Russell Westbrook and Paul George in offseason trades. The crowd roared in the fourth quarter and overtime and made it seem, for a night, like nothing had changed.

Joel Embiid had 31 points and 12 rebounds, and Josh Richardson added 28 points for the 76ers.

WIZARDS 137, TIMBERWOLVES 116

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Bradley Beal scored 44 points for the second straight game and Washington snapped a three-game losing streak with the victory over short-handed Minnesota.

Moritz Wagner came off the bench for Washington to add 30 points and 15 rebounds - both career highs. Wagner also drew three charges to help spark the Wizards' defense in the first half.

Karl-Anthony Towns, celebrating his 24th birthday, led the Timberwolves with 36 points. Minnesota was without scoring leader Andrew Wiggins because of personal reasons.

GRIZZLIES 107, JAZZ 106

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) - Ja Morant scored 25 points, including the go-ahead basket with 1:32 remaining, Dillon Brooks added 20 points and Memphis beat Utah, spoiling the return of former Grizzlies guard Mike Conley.

Morant's inside basket gave Memphis a 107-105 lead. Utah's Rudy Gobert split a pair of free throws with 53 seconds left and both teams missed shots down the stretch.

Utah had one last chance when the ball was inbounded to Donovan Mitchell with two seconds left. But as Mitchell turned, Solomon Hill stripped the ball away, giving Memphis its third straight win.

The game marked the return of Conley, the long-time Memphis guard who spent his entire career with the Grizzlies until a trade to Utah over the summer. While there was plenty of admiration from his former fan base, Conley struggled, scoring 15 points on 5-for-19 shooting from the field.

Mitchell led the Jazz with 29 points and nine rebounds. Gobert had 23 points and 17 rebounds, while Bojan Bogdanovic added 20 points.

MAGIC 111, SPURS 109

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) - Evan Fournier scored 26 points, hitting two late 3-pointers, and Orlando handed San Antonio its fourth straight loss.

Terrence Ross had 10 of his season-high 20 points in the fourth quarter. DeMar DeRozan scored 21 points for the Spurs.

Armadillo: Saturday's six-pack

Five least experienced college hoop teams this season:

6) South Carolina-Upstate

5) Virginia Tech

4) Central Connecticut

3) Incarnate Word

2) Utah

1) Memphis


**********

Armadillo: Saturday's List of 13: Clearing out cluttered mind??

13) Browns? DE Myles Garrett was suspended indefinitely (minimum of 6 games) by the NFL after the fracas at the end of the Browns? game with Pittsburgh Thursday night.

Cleveland DT Larry Ogunjobi was also suspended for a game; Pittsburgh?s center Maurkice Pouncey was suspended for three games.

12) Shaky programming move by ESPN, putting the UNC-Pitt game on Thursday night, same time the Steelers were playing. Wednesday or Friday would?ve worked better.

11) Pittsburgh Pirates hired former Red Sox GM Ben Cherington as their new GM, then fired assistant GM Kyle Stark. Cherington was GM in Boston when they won the 2013 World Series, but got the boot two years later- they?re not real patient in Boston.

Cherington?s first job is probably to hire a manager, seeing how the Pirates don?t have one yet after they fired Clint Hurdle.

10) West Virginia 68, Pittsburgh 53? ESPNU?s analyst for this game was Chris Spatola, who is Mike Krzyzewski?s son-in-law. Pitt is coached by former Dukie Jeff Capel; they did couple of segments during the game where they showed Pitt?s new locker room, it was like a Pitt Panther infomercial, geared towards recruits.

Meanwhile, West Virginia has a big kid named Oscar Tshiebwe who dominated the game inside, with 20 points, 17 rebounds in his second college game. Mountaineers have won four in a row over Pitt for first time since 1977.

9) Rhode Island 93, Alabama 79? Solid win for the A-14, with URI forcing 22 turnovers (+10).

8) Gonzaga 79, Texas A&M 49? Zags are this generation?s version of the Jerry Tarkanian UNLV teams; a national power that dominates a mid-major league in January-February, and uses pre-conference play to test itself in games like this. Aggies shot 30.4% from floor in this game.

7) NFL stuff:
? Lions? QB Matthew Stafford (back) is out again this week.
? Vikings? WR Adam Thielen (hamstring) is out again this week.
? Eagles put RB Darren Sproles on IR, ending his season.

6) NBA stuff:
? Nets? F Caris LeVert (thumb) will likely miss 4-6 weeks.
? Hawks? F Kevin Huerter (shoulder) is out two weeks.

5) A few over/under numbers for CONFERENCE wins in college hoop:
? Colorado 11.5
? Duke 15
? Gonzaga 14
? UNLV 9
? Utah State 14
? Villanova 11.5

4) California Golden Bears QB Chase Garbers has been cleared to return and will start in Saturday?s home game vs. USC.

3) James Holzhauer, who won $2.46M during a 32-game winning streak on Jeopardy! last spring, won the show?s Tournament of Champions during Friday?s episode, taking the $250,000 first prize.

2) Duquesne 58, Lipscomb 36? These teams combined to make 1 of 40 3-pointers.

Let me repeat that; these teams took 40 3-pointers, and made ONE!!! No bueno.

1) Celtics 105, Warriors 100? Golden State played its heart out, but lost their 6th game in a row and is now 2-11 in this lost season.

Harden scores 49 points, taking career-high 41 shots
November 16, 2019
By The Associated Press

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) James Harden scored 49 points on a whopping 41 shots from the field and the undermanned Houston Rockets won their seventh straight gamer, 125-105 over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Saturday night.

With Russell Westbrook resting, the Rockets needed Harden to shoulder an even bigger scoring load than usual. The 41 attempts are the most in his career, and the most in the NBA this season, surpassing the 37 Golden State's D'Angelo Russell took in an overtime loss Nov. 8 in the same building in Minnesota.

Harden made 16 of the 41 shots, going 8 for 22 from 3-point range. He was 9 of 11 on free throws.

Ben McLemore scored 20 points. Undrafted rookie Chris Clemons scored a career-high 19 for the Rockets, who broke open the game with a 9-0 run in the fourth quarter. Austin Rivers also had 19 points.

Karl-Anthony Towns had 27 points and 15 rebounds for the Timberwolves.

TRAIL BLAZERS 121, SPURS 116

SAN ANTONIO (AP) - CJ McCollum scored 32 points and Portland beat San Antonio to spoil Tim Duncan's first shot at coaching following Gregg Popovich's ejection.

Popovich was ejected after walking onto the court to berate official Jason Goldenberg over a non-call. Popovich calmly walked off the court following his first ejection of the season.

The Spurs responded with Duncan and fellow assistants Becky Hammon and Will Hardy coaching by committee, but it was Duncan calling the plays and screaming out instruction.

Damian Lillard added 22 points and Hassan Whiteside had 21 for Portland.

LaMarcus Aldridge had 30 points and 13 rebounds Spurs. They've lost five straight.

CLIPPERS 150, HAWKS 101

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Paul George scored 37 points in his Clippers home debut, Lou Williams added 25, and Los Angeles led all the way in routing Atlanta.

The anticipated first game with George and Kawhi Leonard in the lineup together didn't happen when Leonard sat out with a left knee contusion.

But the Clippers didn't need both of their new superstars on a night when George tied his career high with six 3-pointers and made all 11 of his free throws in the team's biggest blowout of the young season.

Trae Young had 20 points for the Hawks, who dropped their second in a row. They trailed by 52 points in the fourth.

BUCKS 102, PACERS 83

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - Giannis Antetokounmpo had 26 points, 13 rebounds and six assists and Milwaukee forced Indiana into its worst shooting performance of the season.

Brook Lopez added 15 points and eight rebounds. He had blocked five shots as the Pacers shot a season-low 32% from the field.

Milwaukee, 9-3 despite a road-heavy schedule to start the season, shot 45%. Donte DiVincenzo added 14 points,

Myles Turner, playing his first game since Oct. 30, had 16 points, 11 rebounds and four blocks for Indiana.

MAVERICKS 110, RAPTORS 102

DALLAS (AP) - Luka Doncic had 26 points and 15 rebounds in Dallas' victory over Toronto.

Doncic scored nine points in the fourth quarter as the Mavericks added to a one-point lead. He made all seven free throws in the quarter and finished with a career-best 15 free throws in 19 attempts.

Delon Wright finished with 15 points, and banked in a fadeaway with 5 seconds left in the third quarter to send Dallas into the fourth quarter with a 78-77 edge. Wright added six points in the fourth quarter.

Kristaps Porzingis had 20 points and matched his career best with 15 rebounds for Dallas.

Norman Powell scored a season-high 26 points for Toronto.

HEAR 109, PELICANS 94

MIAMI (AP) - Kendrick Nunn scored 22 points and Miami beat New Orleans to remained unbeaten at home.

Bam Adebayo had 18 points and 14 rebounds, and Jimmy Butler added 16 points, 13 assists and eight rebound. Miami is 5-0 at home and 9-3 overall - tying the best 12-game start in team history.

Nickell Alexander-Walker made six 3-pointers and had 27 points for New Orleans.

NETS 117, BULLS 111

CHICAGO (AP) - Spencer Dinwiddie scored 24 points and Brooklyn beat Chicago without All-Star guard Kyrie Irving to snap a three-game losing streak.

Irving entered Saturday sixth in the NBA with 28.5 points per game but sat with a right shoulder injury. The short-handed Nets are also without Caris LeVert, who's recovering from right thumb surgery.

Zach LaVine scored 36 points for Chicago.

HORNETS 103, KNICKS 102

NEW YORK (AP) - Devonte' Graham made his ninth 3-pointer with 2.8 seconds remaining and had 29 points to lead Charlotte past New York.

P.J. Washington scored 19 points, Terry Rozier had 16 and Marvin Williams added 13.

RJ Barrett scored 22 points for the Knicks.

Quote of the Day
?You watch Michigan State play. How many NFL players do they got? That doesn?t look like the defenses I used to go against. They had first-round corners, Le?Veon Bell. I don?t see that. That?s coaches, recruiting, development.?
Urban Meyer

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

Sunday?s List of 13: Wrapping up a sports Saturday??

13) Oklahoma 34, Baylor 31:
? Bears led 28-3 in first half, 31-10 at the half.
? Oklahoma ran 95 plays in this game, Baylor 52.
? Baylor ran only 16 plays in the whole 2nd half.
? Oklahoma QB Hurts ran for 114 yards, threw for 297 yards and four TD?s.

12) Georgia 21, Auburn 14? Dawgs led 21-0 after 3rd quarter, hung on for the win that gives them their 3rd straight SEC East title. Auburn outgained Georgia, 321-259.

11) TCU 33, Texas Tech 31? Red Raiders missed a PAT, then went for two points after two other times and didn?t convert either one; those three points were the difference in this game.

TCU gained 549 yards, converting 15-24 third down plays.

Horned Frogs are 5-5; this was their first win this year (1-4) in games decided by 7 or less points. They need to beat either Oklahoma or West Virginia to become bowl eligible.

10) Alabama 38, Mississippi State 7? Bama QB Tagovailoa dislocated his hip when Tide led 35-7 near end of the first half; he was helicoptered out of Starkville and Alabama scored only three points in the 2nd half. Tagovailoa is obviously out for the year.

9) Central Michigan 45, Ball State 44? Chippewas trailed 41-24 with 2:00 left in 3rd quarter; they scored game-winning TD with 1:01 left.

8) Penn State 34, Indiana 27? Indiana QB Peyton Ramsey threw 652 passes for the Hoosiers the last two years, but lost his starting job this year to redshirt freshman Michael Penix Jr; instead of pouting/transferring, like so many college QB?s do these days when they don?t start anymore, Ramsey stuck around and got the starting job back when Penix got hurt.

Hard not to root for the kid; he played for his dad in HS, is named after Peyton Manning and said he loves the team too much to transfer somewhere else. He was 31-41/371 passing in this game, ran for two TD?s, threw for one in a losing cause. Indiana is 7-3 and headed to a bowl.

7) Upsets:
? Rice (+14.5) 31, Middle Tennessee 28? Great day for the Owls.
? West Virginia (+14) 24, Kansas State 20
? Syracuse (+10.5) 49, Duke 6
? Temple (+6.5) 29, Tulane 21
? Kent State (+6) 30, Buffalo 27

6) Iowa 23, Minnesota 19? Golden Gophers outgained Iowa 431-290, but lost their 9th straight game in Iowa City.

5) Michigan 44, Michigan State 10? From 2013-15, Michigan State went 36-5, thanks in large part to a +46 turnover ratio. Thats +46 in 41 games.

Since then, MSU is 24-24, with a turnover ratio of minus-4.

4) College basketball upsets:
? Montana State (+15) 67, NC-Greensboro 66- Kid drained 50-footer at buzzer.
? Rice (+9.5) 82, UCSB 81? Gauchos were up 20 at the half.
? Eastern Michigan (+9) 56, North Texas 51
? St Bonaventure (+8.5) 80, Rutgers 74
? Morgan State (+8.5) 68, George Washington 64
? Liberty (+7) 77, East Carolina 57
? Vermont (+2) 70, St John?s 68? Upset in name only.

3) Wisconsin 37, Nebraska 21? Cornhuskers gave coach Scott Frost a 2-year contract extension, despite his 8-14 record in a year and a half with Nebraska.

? Florida State fired Willie Taggart in his 2nd year, when he had a 9-12 record (0-5 vs Florida, Miami and Clemson)

? Arkansas fired coach Chad Morris in his 2nd year; he had a 4-18 record.

2) Temple 29, Tulane 21? Since 2010, Owls are 71-53 overall, 43-33 in conference games, under FIVE different head coaches. Its quietly become a pretty good job, albeit a stepping stone job.

1) LSU 58, Ole Miss 37? Burrow was 32-42 passing for 489 yards, five TD?s as he continues to make his case to the the first QB taken in next April?s NFL Draft.
