Memphis Grizzlies (14-41) at Cleveland Cavaliers (31-24)

The struggling Grizzlies have lost ten of their last 11 games and have been a horror away from home, 11 straight losses, just 4-22 thus far this season. Cleveland should have no problems grabbing a victory over Memphis. The Cavaliers have won nine of the last 11 meetings at home against Memphis. However, the Cavaliers are 2-4 ATS in its last six games, 0-5 ATS in its last 5 at Quicken Loans Arena and went 1-4 ATS in its last 5 games against Memphis. Go with the sorry Grizzlies to cover the double digit spread. In the only game of this season, Memphis lost a hard fought fight to Cleveland in overtime, a 132-124 defeat on January 15.

30 Dime ?

NOTRE DAME

Take the Irish as they home chalk this afternoon over Syracuse.

I don?t see how the Orange are going to stop Notre Dame?s Luke Harangody from dominating in the paint today.

Harangody struggled against Pitt in Notre Dame?s 82-70 win on Thursday, but then you looked at his numbers and it showed 23 points and 12 rebounds!

I know a lot of players who would like to ?struggle? and post those kinds of numbers.

Syracuse has lost three of four SU and ATS. I know they?re on the bubble and really need a win here today to improve their chances on a tourney invite, but the truth is they can?t match what Notre Dame has in the paint and on the perimeter.

Notre Dame allows just 66.4 ppg at home, while Syracuse only averages 66.8 ppg offensively on the road this year.

Take the Irish as they grab the home win and cover.


10 Dime ?

OHIO STATE

Take Ohio State for the home win this afternoon over Wisconsin.

Ohio State needs a signature win in the worst way right now and the Badgers are just the opponent for that.

The Buckeyes lead the Big 10 in field goal defense and 3-point percentage defense. Which means the Badgers will be playing an opponent that stresses defense as much as they do.

You give me that scenario and I?ll take Ohio State at home every time over Wisconsin.

Ohio State comes in well prepared for this game having had six full prep days for this matchup.

Take the Buckeyes as they get it done at home over the Badgers.

TIP OF THE DAY Sport: NBA Game: 9:00PM, Los Angeles Lakers vs. Seattle SuperSonics

Los Angeles Lakers


Current Line: -9 Over/Under: 216 Reason: The Los Angeles Lakers and the Seattle SuperSonics will both be trying to pick up a win on Sunday when they battle at KeyArena. Oddsmakers currently have the Lakers listed as 9-point favorites versus the SuperSonics, while the game's total is sitting at 216. The Lakers took control in the third quarter, and defeated the Clippers 113-95 last time out. The Lakers covered the 10-point spread, while the combined 208 points fell UNDER the posted total of 211. Pau Gasol led the Lakers with 23 points, five rebounds and six assists. Lamar Odom chipped in with 20 points, and Kobe Bryant added 17 in the win. Kevin Durant tossed in 17 points on Friday night to guide the SuperSonics to a 99-87 win over the Portland Trail Blazers. The Sonics were winners as 2-point home underdogs in that contest, while the combined score fell UNDER the night's posted total (188.5). Current streak: Los Angeles has won 7 straight games. Team records: Los Angeles: 38-17 SU, 35-19-1 ATS Seattle: 15-39 SU, 27-26-1 ATS Los Angeles most recently: When playing on Sunday are 4-6 Before playing Portland are 6-4 After playing LA Clippers are 6-4 After a win are 8-2 Seattle most recently: When playing on Sunday are 4-6 Before playing Golden State are 3-7 After playing Portland are 5-5 After a win are 3-7 A few trends to consider: LA Lakers are 5-0 SU in their last 5 games on the road LA Lakers are 5-0 SU in their last 5 games LA Lakers are 6-1 SU in their last 7 games when playing Seattle The total has gone OVER in 5 of the LA Lakers last 6 games when playing on the road against Seattle The total has gone UNDER in 5 of Seattle's last 6 games Seattle is 5-1 ATS in its last 6 games The total has gone OVER in 5 of Seattle's last 6 games when playing at home against LA Lakers Seattle is 4-0-1 ATS in their last 5 games when playing LA Lakers

COLLEGE BASKETBALL

PITTSBURGH
Game: Louisville vs. Pittsburgh Game Time: 2/24/2008 12:00:00 PM Prediction: Pittsburgh Reason: I'm playing on PITTSBURGH. This is a huge game for Pittsburgh. The Panthers are stuck on 19 wins, and they lost their second in a row Thursday night at Notre Dame. The Panthers know that they probably need to win two more games, maybe three, to get into the tournament. After Louisville, they play Cincinnati, Syracuse, West Virginia and DePaul. They should be able to beat both Cincinnati and Depaul. The games against Syracuse and West Virginia both come on the road though, so both will be tough. However, if they can protect their homecourt this afternoon, the Panthers, who are 3-1 SU/ATS in four series meetings since 2006, will put themselves in excellent shape. Note that Pittsburgh has only lost three in a row once during coach Jamie Dixon's five seasons as head coach. The Panthers, who have been dealing with injuries, are getting healthier. Guard Levance Fields returned recently after missing 12 games with a broken foot and his return makes the Panthers a much stronger team. Fields joins Sam Young and center DeJuan Blair as the nucleus of one of the Big East?s most physical teams. Like Connecticut yesterday, Louisville comes in on a major roll. The Huskies were coming off a road win at South Florida but found the going tougher (although the Bulls also almost beat them) when stepping up in class to face Villanova. The Cardinals last two road wins have also come against a pair of the Big East's lower tier teams, Depaul and Providence. Like the Huskies, the Cardinals will be taking a significant step up in class this afternoon. Like the Huskies, I expect them to find out that winning road games in the Big East isn't as easy as they thought it was. Note that Big East home teams have been very strong all season and that they were a perfect 6-0 SU yesterday. The Panthers have won three straight home games and 16 of their last 17 here. Looking back further and we find them at 95-8 in 103 games at the Petersen Events Center, where the student body?known as the Oakland Zoo?rims the court and provides them with a substantial home-court edge. Look for homecourt to be the difference as the Panthers earn a very important win and move to 7-1 SU/ATS the last eight times they were listed as home underdogs (or pick'em) of three points or less.

OHIO STATE
Game: Wisconsin vs. Ohio State Game Time: 2/24/2008 1:00:00 PM Prediction: Ohio State Reason: I'm playing on OHIO STATE. I feel that this will be a tough spot for the Badgers. Not only are they coming off a big road win at Illinois but they've got another huge game vs. Michigan State on deck. Note that the Badgers are an ugly 3-8 ATS this season when coming off a win vs. a conference opponent. Conversely, the Buckeyes, who lost 80-70 at Michigan last Sunday, are 3-1 ATS when coming off a loss vs. a Big 10 foe. Note that the Buckeyes are also 6-0 SU the last six times they allowed 80 or more points in their previous game, going 9-1 SU during that stretch when playing with five or six day's rest in between games. The rest is important as Coach Thad Matta has been playing his top seven players almost exclusively. The Buckeyes, who have won their last two games vs. the Badgers at Value City Arena are 12-2 here for the season. During that stretch, they've outscored opponents by more than 14 points per game, allowing 56.4 while scoring 70.8. The Badgers are tough and the Buckeyes will have to be at their best to beat them. Well-rested and playing at home, where they're 47-3 their last 50, in an absolutely crticial game, I believe that that they WILL be at their best. They're young but they're also talented and they've got an experienced point guard in senior Jamar Butler, who provides leadership while contributing 14.2 points and 6.3 assists per game. Look for a huge effort on both sides of the ball with homecourt proving to be the difference and the Buckeyes improving to 11-4 SU/ATS the last 15 times they were listed as home underdogs (or pick'em) of three points or less. *Main Event




BB NBA BASKETBALL

UNDER raptors/knicks
Game: New York Knicks vs. Toronto Raptors Game Time: 2/24/2008 6:05:00 PM Prediction: under Reason: I'm playing on the Raptors and Knicks to finish UNDER the number. Both teams have been playing a lot of "overs" lately. Those recent results have inflated today's over/under line and, in my opinion, given us solid value with the UNDER. In fact, today's number is several points higher than it was when these same two teams faced each other at New York just two days ago. That game managed to sneak above the number with 202 combined points, due largely to the Knicks scoring 40 and the teams combining for 72 points in the second quarter. I really don't think the Knicks will be having any 40 point quarters here in Toronto though, where the Raptors have held 15 of their last 21 opponents to double-digits in scoring. Note that of those 21 games, the only two Eastern Conference teams to crack the 100 mark here were the Pistons (who had 101) and the Magic, who rank #1 in the conference in scoring. Despite Friday's result, the UNDER remains a profitable 9-3 the last 12 games in this series. The Raptors, who have seen the UNDER go 4-2 this season after playing three consecutive games which finished above the total, have seen the UNDER go 7-1 when playing on a Sunday this season. Meanwhile, we find the UNDER at 6-1 when the Knicks were playing on a Sunday. Looking back a few seasons show the UNDER at 25-16 the last 41 times that the Knicks were listed as road underdogs in the +9.5 to +12 range. I expect the Raptors to do a much better job defensively on Crawford, who had a season-high 43 points on Friday. I also look for them to do a much better job on shutting the Knicks down overall and for the final combined score to be lower than most are expecting with the UNDER improving to 6-1 the last seven times that the Raptors played at home, when playing the front end of back to back games. *Blue Chip

SONICS
Game: Los Angeles Lakers vs. Seattle SuperSonics Game Time: 2/24/2008 9:05:00 PM Prediction: Seattle SuperSonics Reason: I'm taking the points with SEATTLE. The Sonics have begun the second half by winning two of three games, going a perfect 3-0 against the number. That brings them to 5-2 SU their last seven at home and a profitable 10-4 ATS their past 14 games overall. Naturally, the Sonics would love to continue their post-All Star Break success. Additional motivation will be provided by the fact that they're playing with "double-revenge" from a pair of first half losses. LA managed the "SU" victories in those earlier meetings but both games were very close, with Seattle covering the spread each time. Including those results, the Sonics are a profitable 12-5-3 ATS the last 20 series meetings. Note that each of the last two games here were decided by three points or less. While the Sonics had last night off, the Lakers are coming off a late game vs. the Clippers. Its true that the Lakers have won 11 of the last 20 when they've played the second of back to back games. However, a closer look shows that only two of those 20 games resulted in Laker wins of greater than nine points. While he's not one of the Lakers' "stars," it's still worth noting that former-Sonic Vladimir Radmanovic left with a strained right calf late in the first quarter of last night's game. Due to the Lakers' recent hot streak, this line is several points higher than it was for any of their last four visits to Seattle. With the Lakers playing the second of back to back games and playing on the road for the 11th time in 12 games AND with the Sonics playing their best basketball in recent memory, I feel that the line is much too high. Look for the revenge-minded Sonics to continue their recent improved play, moving to 15-7 ATS when facing a team which allows 99 or more points per game. *Game of the Week
