-- Creighton won last nine games since only loss, at home to Boise; they start 4-0 in MVC play, with three wins by 13+ points. Bluejays are #1 in country, making 44.9% behind arc. Missouri State was 0-10 v D-I teams in non-conference play, but starts out 3-1 in Valley, losing by 3 in OT to Evansville. Bears hold teams to 29.2% behind the arc.

-- Loyola, Chi lost last two games after 10-3 start; they're turning ball over 21.6% of time, lot for good team. Ramblers are 5-1 at home, with four wins by 8+ points. Wright State won six of its last seven games, winning first three Horizon games by 11-2-16 points; Raiders force turnovers 25.4% of time, #13 in country at that- they're 3-3 on road, 9-2 vs teams outside top 150.

-- Utah State won its last 11 games since only loss, at home to St Mary's Nov 15; Aggies are 4-0 in WAC play, winning by 4-24-9-78 points, but needed OT to beat Idaho last game- they're making 37.5% from the arc, 53.5% inside it. San Jose State is 1-3 vs teams in top 150, with losses by 13-21-9 points, but they're 3-1 in WAC, winning at UTSA/Texas State.

Thunder at Lakers: What Bettors Need to Know

Oklahoma City Thunder at Los Angeles Lakers (+5, 214)

The Los Angeles Lakers try to avoid their first six-game losing streak in almost six years when they host the Oklahoma City Thunder on Friday. Los Angeles has not lost six straight it dropped seven in a row from March 2-15, 2007. After ending December with their sixth win in seven games, the Lakers have yet to post a victory this month. They dropped a 108-105 decision to the Spurs in San Antonio on Wednesday for their fifth straight defeat.

Oklahoma City enters a half-game behind the Los Angeles Clippers for the league's best record. It posted its third win in four games Wednesday as it defeated the Minnesota Timberwolves 106-84. The Thunder are beginning a string of three straight games on the road, where they are a pedestrian 9-5 as opposed to their 18-3 mark at home.

TV: 10:30 p.m. ET, FSN (Oklahoma City), TWC SportsNet (Los Angeles), ESPN

ABOUT THE THUNDER (27-8, 21-13-1 ATS): Russell Westbrook is looking to extend his consecutive games streak to 348, the longest active games played streak. Kevin Durant ranks third in the league in scoring with an average of 28.1 points. Oklahoma City is 6-0 when Durant scores at least 35 points. The Thunder are the NBA's top 3-point shooting team through 35 games as they have made 267 of 668 attempts. Westbrook and Durant form the highest-scoring pair of teammates in the league. The duo currently is averaging 49.9 points.

ABOUT THE LAKERS (15-20, 14-20-1 ATS): Los Angeles could get a little healthier Friday. Dwight Howard (shoulder) and Jordan Hill (hip) remain sidelined, but Pau Gasol has yet to be ruled out. Gasol already has missed two games with a concussion. Kobe Bryant still leads the league with an average of 30.1 points. But by his standards, he's in a bit of a scoring slump. After scoring at least 30 points in 12 of 13 games, the superstar has failed to reach the mark in each of his last three contests as he has tallied 29, 20 and 27 points. With 10,653 field goals made, Bryant is seven away from passing Alex English for eighth place on the all-time list.

TRENDS:

* Over is 4-0 in the last four meetings.
* Over is 4-1 in the last five meetings in Los Angeles.
* Thunder are 3-1-1 ATS in the last five meetings in Los Angeles.
* Road team is 3-1-1 ATS in the last five meetings.

BUZZER BEATERS:

1. The Thunder drew first blood in the four-game season series, posting a 114-108 victory at home on Dec. 7.

2. Los Angeles has posted its worst 35-game start since also beginning the 2002-03 season with a 15-20 record.

3. Oklahoma City is 14-0 when five or more players score in double figures.

Indian Cowboy's Picks For College Basketball

3-0 Thursday. 4 of 5 winning days. 7 of 10 winning days. 22-14 (60%) Run and +$1900 since December 22nd. Still more to be done but the run is here and its time for us to ride the wave.

We're taking a Pass on the card today. Instead forcing 1 here we can just wait on the Saturday card which will likely feature 5 selections.


Indian Cowboy's Picks For NBA Basketball

3-Unit Selection. #806. Take Boston -2.5 over Houston Rockets (Friday @ 7:30pm est).

Boston has a lot of revenge coming into this game. This team always has a way of sticking up for his players and Kevin Garnett taking some heat for supposedly talking about Carmello's wife, look for the team to step up to support Garnett here. News reports indicate this is why 'Melo lost his cool and that Garnett stepped over the line. Coach Rivers adamently denies that Garnett stepped over the line or talked about anybody's wife. Either way, Carmello got a 1 game suspension for the incident outside the buses in Madison Square Garden which led the Knicks to possibly lose a game in Indiana. As per this game, Boston has a lot of revenge from a 101-89 loss earlier this year to Houston. This is a big revenge spot for a Boston team that just got a lot healthier with Avery Bradley returning to the lineup which allows the team to be significantly deeper. Boston is now an above .500 team and their defense has spurted their success once again as they have won 4 straight now and come yielding just 79 points to the Suns at home. During the 4 game win streak Boston has managed to cover 3 of the last 4 as well. I'm not a huge fan of Houston losing their last game and looking to bounce-back but at home but then again, this team did lose back to back games to San Antonio and OKC. Plus, with this team losing to New Orleans possibly looking ahead to this game, the key difference is that teams that get back on transition such as New Orleans, or teams with an inside presence like Davis can give the Rockets trouble such as scoring less than 80 points. The Celtics have this same motto with an inside presence in Garnett and this is a defensive minded team that will get back on transition and will have a healthier Bradley to boot this game. The league is starting to come around to what it takes to beat the Rockets and look for the Celtics to mold what the Hornets did tonight.

Vegas Sports Informer
5 Unit Play. Take #814 New York -4 over Chicago (8:05 p.m., Friday, January 11 ESPN)
(Game of the Week) The Knicks will be looking to snap out of a 3-game losing streak and get some revenge from the Chicago Bulls. The Bulls have beaten the Knicks twice in the month of December and one of those games were in the Garden so again I think the Knicks look for some much needed revenge tonight at home. Last night New York came up short against the Pacers in Indiana but the Knicks played without Melo serving a 1-game suspension. I see Melo having a huge game tonight and I see the Knicks playing with some heart at home to snap out of their funk. The Bulls might be without Kirk Hinrich again tonight and if does not play this will help our Game of the Week huge! The Bulls are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games and the Knicks are 16-5-1 ATS following a SU loss.

Team Del Genio NBA Trifecta of the Week (11-2 L13)


Oklahoma City Thunder at Los Angeles Lakers Jan 11 2013 10:35PM
8* Play Over Oklahoma City/LA Lakers at 10:35 ET. Former linesmaker Lenny Del Genio spent years working on an NBA "totals system" and began using it in January '07 on the net, with great success. It's based on numerous factors, some of them listed here. Anticipated pace and style of both teams' play. Days of rest for teams or lack of it. Number of points scored by starters as compared to subs in recent outings (plus season-long averages). It also factors in point and rebounding differentials of the two teams. He has since passed it down to his handicapping Team, who has been employing it the past several seasons. With all these factors (and many more), it's not possible to provide our "typical analysis" with NBA totals selections, however, we will provide various factors, stats and trends to "supplement" the system. The ratings of the plays have also been slightly modified this year. Plays are now rated 7* (Game of the Day), 8* (Game of the Week), 9* (Game of the Month) as well as some very rare 10* plays (Games of the Year). You have the #2 scoring offense (Oklahoma City) here going against an awful defensive team (Lakers). The last four Lakers games have all seen both them and their opponents score more than 100 points. They had gone Over in four games in a row before Wednesday night's loss to the Spurs, where a missed three at the buzzer cost them a chance at overtime and another winning Over ticket. The Thunder come in averaging 105.4 PPG for the season, trailing only Houston, who just put up 125 on this pourous Lakers D. Meanwhile, the Lakers allow 101.7 PPG, one of the worst marks in the league. Since the start of last season, LA is an astounding 16-2 Over when coming off a loss by six points or less. Going back to LY's playoff series, these teams have gone Over the last four times they've met. Over Oklahoma City/LA Lakers is our 8* ESPN Total.

Marc Lawrence Double 100% ATS NBA Super Pick Super Play!


Oklahoma City Thunder at Los Angeles Lakers Jan 11 2013 10:35PM
Play On: LA Lakers (Game 822) Note: When the Lakers host the Thunder in a Friday night prime time showdown at the Staples Center it will be with revenge on their minds from not only being eliminated from last year's playoffs by Oklahoma City but also from a 114-108 loss suffered at OKC a month ago. That sets the table for tonight's fray as Kobe and company are 4-0 SUATS at home off a loss with revenge in this series the last four years. They are also 8-1-1 ATS the last 10 games in this series when they take the court sporting a sub .475 win percentage, including 5-0 ATS the last five. With the Thunder in off a 22-point revenge win over Minnesota Wednesday night, look for a spirited effort from the bruised but proud hosts tonight. We recommend a 3-unit play on the Lakers. Thank you and good luck as always. Check this out: there is an 18-0 ATS super system play in one of Saturday's NFL Divisional Round playoff games. Hurry, get it now from Marc's database and learn the 18-0 ATS winning angle inside the game - you'll be glad you did!

4-STAR ATLANTA over Utah - Atlanta has too much talent for this losing streak to go on forever. This is usually when the streak's stop and this is a good situation for it to happen tonight with a West Coast on the East after an easy win last game. Look for the Hawks to rebound here.
Atlanta has now lost four straight games. They failed to cover in all four. The Hawks are 7-0 ATS (12.8 ppg) since December 23, 2003 at home when they have lost and failed to covered their last four games.

They were upset handily last game in Cleveland, 99-83. The Cavs drained 12-of-23 threes in that game. The Hawks are 7-0 ATS (6.6 ppg) since March 20, 2011 at home after a loss in which their opponent shot at least ten three-pointers and made at least half of them.

Atlanta didn't help themselves by going a pathetic 2-of-5 on free throws in the game. The Hawks are 6-0 ATS (8.9 ppg) since December 05, 2002 at home after a double digit loss in which they shot less than 60% from the free-throw line.

They made 37 baskets in the game but only 19 of those were assisted. The Hawks are 6-0 ATS (8.9 ppg) since February 12, 2008 at home with at least one day of rest after a double digit road loss in which the percentage of their baskets that were assisted was at least ten percentage points lower than their season-to-date average.

Utah is coming off a 112-102 win in Charlotte. They shot 53.7% from the field in that game. The Jazz are 0-7 ATS (-7.6 ppg) since February 13, 2012 on the road with at most one day of rest after a win in which they shot at least 50% from the field.

They went inside in that game with Paul Millsap scoring 19 points and Al Jefferson leading the way with 26. The Jazz are 0-10 ATS (-8.2 ppg) since December 22, 2010 on the road after a win on the road in which Paul Millsap was not the Jazz's high scorer. Also, the Jazz are 0-7 ATS (-8.4 ppg) since December 30, 2010 on the road after a win on the road in which Al Jefferson was the Jazz's high scorer.

4-STAR Phoenix over BROOKLYN - This is the kind of game where Brooklyn is really being overvalued. Sure they look solid and a playoff team in the Eastern Conference. However the difference between the two conferences is so great they're really not that much different than this Phoenix team. The Suns won't continue to be this bad on the road and will make a game of things here.

Brooklyn is coming off a big 109-89 win in Philadelphia. They dominated the boards with a 50-32 edge The Nets are 0-7 ATS (-7.6 ppg) since January 15, 2000 at home with at least one day of rest after a win in which they controlled at least 60% of the available rebounds.

That helped them overcome 15 turnovers, only three of which were on Philly steals. The Nets are 0-6 ATS (-14.8 ppg) since November 12, 2008 at home after a game on the road in which they has more than 10 refereed turnovers.

Deron Williams led the effort there with 22 points. The Nets are 0-5 ATS (-14.9 ppg) since December 27, 2011 at home after a win on the road in which Deron Williams was the Nets' high scorer.

Some of their normally reliable role players didn't do much. Kris Humphries scored just two points. The Nets are 0-8-1 ATS (-10.3 ppg) since February 12, 2011 at home after a win on the road in which Kris Humphries was not the Nets' high scorer.

Gerald Wallace had 11 points coming on just 3-of-6 shooting. The Nets are 0-5 ATS (-12.0 ppg) since April 08, 2012 at home with at least a day of rest after a win in which Gerald Wallace took fewer than 10 shots.

Portland Trail Blazers at Golden State Warriors Jan 11 2013 10:35PM
I'm playing on GOLDEN STATE. I like how this one sets up for the home side. The Warriors, who had last night off, were beaten here on Wednesday, a rare home loss. On the other hand, the Blazers are off an "upset" win over Miami last night on TNT. The Blazers did beat the T-Wolves when playing the second of b2b games recently and have admittedly been respectable in that situation overall this season. However, they still have just five wins their last 14 times in that situation, since last year. More importantly, a closer look reveals that they've been very fortunate to play poor or mediocre opponents when playing the second of b2b games. Prior to win vs. Minnesota, they were beaten 102-79 at Toronto, when playing the second of b2b games. Additionally, note that Portland is just 2-7-1 ATS when off an "upset" win. Not only is a TV win over the defending champions cause for a potential, letdown but the Blazers figure to find their hosts in a foul mood. The Warriors have been at their best when off an "upset" loss. They're 12-7 ATS their last 19 in that situation, going 3-0 SU/ATS their last three in that situation. The Warriors are still 10-6 ATS (11-5 SU) on this floor. I expect them to bounce back with a big win. *10 West. Conf GOM


Prediction: Golden State Warriors

Utah Jazz at Atlanta Hawks Jan 11 2013 7:35PM
I'm playing on ATLANTA. The Hawks don't have a very good pointspread record at home this season and they're currently mired in a slump. However, they've still won 11 of 17 home games and they're not laying a very large number here. Facing a Utah team which is only 8-14 (8-13-1 ATS) on the road, I expect the Hawks to break through with a much needed win and cover. Off four straight losses, including a double-digit blowout at Cleveland on Wednesday, the Hawks should be in a nasty mood. In fairness, three of those losses were on the road and the lone home game came against Boston, after they'd just played an exhausting game the previous night, losing by a point at Detroit. Al Horford noted: "It's about energy, man, and we need to defend better.'' Josh Smith added: "We've got to get back to playing beautiful basketball.'' Tonight, the Hawks are playing with some rest, as they had last night off. They're 3-1 ATS (4-0 SU) off a double-digit loss this season. Only one of those four games came at home (12/22 vs. Chicago) and the Hawks won that one by 17 points, when laying four. I expect the Hawks, who have taken five of six vs. the Jazz, to bounce back with another convincing win and cover here. *10 personal favorite


Prediction: Atlanta Hawks

Burns' *10 O/U BEST BET! **9-0 L9, 14-2 in 2013!**


Cleveland Cavaliers at Denver Nuggets Jan 11 2013 9:05PM
I'm playing on Denver and Cleveland to finish UNDER the total. While I respect both these offenses, I feel that this number will prove too high. I did recently successfully play on the Cavs to finish "over" the total in their game at Chicago. That game had an O/U line of only 186 though and I had reason to believe that the Bulls would be happy to push the pace. In this case, we're getting an extra 20 or so points to work with. Obviously, that's significant. Additionally, they're catching a Denver team which should be looking to deliver a strong defensive performance. (Karl had commented he was disappointed with the defensive energy early in the Wednesday's game.) Note the that the UNDER is 47-37-5 the past few seasons, after the Nuggets had allowed 105 or more points their previous game. The Cavs are off a dominant defensive effort of their own, limiting Atlanta to 83 points last time out. Even with their high-scoring game at Chicago, their road games are still averaging 195.3 points. That's a little higher than their average score at Cleveland but still well below this number. Meanwhile, Denver home games are averaging 201.3, the UNDER going 9-5. Again, considerably lower than this number. Speaking of that high number, note that the UNDER is 17-9-1 the last 27 games here when the O/U line ranged from 205 to 209.5. That includes Cleveland's visit here last season. That game had an O/U line of 208 and finished with 199. Don't be surprised if this one stays below the 200 mark once again. *10 best bet


Prediction: under

Charlotte Bobcats at Toronto Raptors Jan 11 2013 7:05PM
I'm playing on Toronto and Charlotte to finish OVER the total. Admittedly, the Raptors have been pretty stingy defensively at home so far this season. However, a visit from the Bobcats typically means its time to pad the offensive stat sheet. I expect the Raptor fans to get their "free pizza" tonight (The Raptors have a promotion where the fans get a free pizza slice if Toronto scores 100 or more points) and for this one to finish above the posted number. The Bobcats have seen their road games average 199.4 points. They're allowing 105.4 ppg away from Charlotte. They've seen each of their last three games top the total, each of those producing a minimum of 209 combined points. The OVER is 4-1 when they've been listed as road underdogs in the 6.5 to 9 range. Other teams with losing records (Toronto is 13-22) particularly tend to play high-scoring games when facing Charlotte. The OVER is 10-2 when the Bobcats have faced a sub-500 team. Off a big win last time out, note that the Raptors have seen the OVER go 15-10 the last 25 times that they were off a double-digit victory. This season, they've seen the OVER go 2-1 after allowing 85 or fewer points and 1-0 as home favorites in the 6.5 to 9 range. The Raptors were in all those situations most recently on 1/4, as they were off a big win and were favored by seven. That game (vs Sacramento) had an O/U line of 196 and finished with 201 combined points. I expect this one to also top the 200 mark. *9 annihilator

4 Unit Play. #826 Take Over 113.5 in Wright State @ Loyola Chicago (9 pm ESPN U) I expect this to be a very competitive match-up for 40 minutes and expect some fouling to occur down the stretch to inflate this total over this low posted number. Both teams average 62 points per game and I am confident that one of these teams will reach 65 points putting us in good shape to collect with the over. The Raiders have been playing outstanding basketball of late, but this will be their first road game since December 22nd and thus their defense will not be as strong. Loyola has gone over the posted number in 5 straight home games. Wright State has gone over the posted total in 11 of their last 15 games played on Friday. Expect a close hard fought game with the over the strongest bet.

#806 Take Boston -2.5 over Houston (7:30 p.m. EST, Friday)

#812 Take New Orleans -2.5 over Minnesota (8 p.m. EST, Friday)
