Rob V: Monday NBA Comp

New York vs. Sacramento, 03/04/2019 22:00 EDT

Point Spread: -11½/-110 Sacramento

Sportsbook:
Betonline

Monday card a rare Triple Perfect 6* Side and a Powerful NCAAB Card led by the ACC Power play on ESPN. NBA Comp Play below,

The NBA Comp play is on Sacramento at 10:05 eastern. The Kings are a solid play here as they have covered 12 of 15 as a home favorite and 5-0 to the spread if the opponent has no rest. The Kings have covered 25 of 33 vs East Conf.teams. NY comes in with no rest and have failed to cover 7 of 9 as a road dog with no rest off a road game and 6 of 7 vs Pacific division teams. To tie in a nice 80% system from the database we see that non conference road dogs with no rest and a 210 or higher total are covering just 20% since 1995 vs a team that failed to cover as a home favorite of 4 or less like the Kings. Look for the Sacramento to coast past a tired Knicks team. On Monday start the week big in baskets with a rare 6* NBA Triple perfect top play and the big ACC Game on ESPN. We also have a conference tournament play. . For the NBA free play. Play on Sacramento. RV- Golden Contender Sports

Virginia Cavaliers vs. Syracuse Orange Preview and Predictions 2019-03-04

NCAAB Predictions 3rd March 2019 by Gracenote
Second-ranked Virginia shoots for its seventh consecutive win as it visits Syracuse in what will surely be a rocking Carrier Dome for a nationally-televised game on Monday evening. The Orange rebounded from tough losses to Duke and North Carolina with a big win at Wake Forest on Saturday.

Virginia is rolling and last-place Pittsburgh was no challenge on Saturday as the Cavaliers jumped out to a big lead early and led 39-19 at the half, allowing coach Tony Bennett to rest his starters with Syracuse on deck 48 hours later. "[The starters] did the job early and they did to start the second half, and it was a way to also reward the guys who work hard in practice," Bennett told the media after the 73-49 win. Syracuse took advantage of the struggling Demon Deacons as Tyus Battle scored 21 points in a 79-54 win on Saturday afternoon. "These games are always difficult, the game you're supposed to win," coach Jim Boeheim told reporters afterward. "It's not that easy. I thought today we played really solid, solid basketball."

TV: 7 p.m. ET, ESPN LINE: Check Intertops for the latest line

ABOUT VIRGINIA (26-2, 14-2 ACC): Bennett was able to hold his three star guards - Kyle Guy, Ty Jerome and De'Andre Hunter - below 30 minutes played against Pitt as he got 13 players onto the court in the blowout. Guy, who was nursing sore knees, led the Cavaliers in scoring against the Panthers with 17 points on 6-of-9 shooting, including 5-of-7 from long range, while Jerome added 13 and Hunter 12. Pitt was the 10th team that the Cavaliers have held below 50 points this season as they continue to lead the nation in allowing 54.1 points per game.

ABOUT SYRACUSE (19-10, 10-6): Battle, the team's leading scorer at 17.7 points per game, shot 9-of-13 from the field against Wake Forest while also chipping in defensively with five steals. No. 2 scorer Elijah Hughes (13.9) added 18 on 8-of-12 shooting as the Orange shot 54.4 percent from the floor while dominating inside, outscoring the Demon Deacons 44-10 in the paint. Syracuse's 2-3 zone defense was also at its best and at one point the Orange held Wake Forest without a basket for 13 1/2 minutes in the second half.

TIP-INS

1. Virginia leads the all-time series 6-5, including two wins last season.

2. Cavaliers freshman PG Kihei Clark has 14 assists and no turnovers in his last last three games.

3. The Orange made just 4-of-19 from 3-point range on Saturday, its lowest total in conference action this season.

PREDICTION: Virginia 66, Syracuse 60

Kansas State Wildcats vs. Texas Christian Horned Frogs Preview and Predictions 2019-03-04

NCAAB Predictions 3rd March 2019 by Gracenote
by Gracenote on 03/03/2019

Kansas State enters the final week of Big 12 play in prime position to end in-state rival Kansas' record 14-year regular-season title streak. The 15th-ranked Wildcats, who are tied with No. 11 Texas Tech for first place and a game ahead of the Jayhawks, need only to win their final two games - starting with Monday night's contest at slumping TCU - to garner at least a share of the crown.

"It's there for us to take," Wildcats coach Bruce Weber told reporters following Saturday night's 66-60 victory over Baylor. "We've got to go take it." That won't be easy against a TCU squad that has dropped five of its last six games, including two in a row, and finds itself squarely on the NCAA Tournament bubble while desperately in need of another marquee win on Senior Night. The Horned Frogs blew a chance for picking up one of those wins on Saturday when they were routed at home by Texas Tech 81-66. "Our backs are against the wall," TCU coach Jamie Dixon told reporters. "We've got to find a way to win this game on Monday."

TV: 9 p.m. ET, ESPN2

ABOUT KANSAS STATE (22-7, 12-4 Big 12): Dean Wade, the preseason Big 12 Player of the Year who has been hampered by a foot injury, had 20 points on 9-of-15 shooting to go along with four rebounds and three blocks in the win over the Bears in one of his best games of the season. "We've got two games left and we can't let it slip (away) now," the 6-10 senior forward told reporters. "These are two crucial, tough games. We've just got to come out focused - right energy, right mindset - and come out and play the basketball we've been playing all season." Senior guard Barry Brown Jr. leads the team in scoring (15.1) followed by Wade (13.2), forward Xavier Sneed (10.4) and point guard Kamau Stokes (10.4), who had 16 points, five assists and four rebounds in the victory over Baylor.

ABOUT TCU (18-11, 6-10): The Horned Frogs enter the final week in a tie for seventh place with Oklahoma, which ends its season at Kansas State on Saturday, and will be trying to avenge a 65-55 road loss to the Wildcats in the first meeting. "We've lost two in a row," Dixon told reporters after the loss to the Red Raiders. "We got beat by a pretty good margin. We've put ourselves in a hole. ... The interesting thing is we have a game Monday so we have to find a way to get better and play better and respond in the right way." The Horned Frogs are led in scoring by sophomore forward Kouat Noi (15.1) followed by guard Desmond Bane (14.9) and senior point guard Alex Robinson (13.2), who leads the Big 12 with an average of 7.0 assists per game.

TIP-INS

1. Brown, who has started 112 consecutive games and played in a school-record 134 straight games, also has a school-record 247 career steals which is tied for sixth best with Russell Robinson of Kansas (2004-08) in Big 12 history.

2. TCU was outscored 24-0 off the bench in the loss to Texas Tech.

3. Kansas State is 77-8 when holding opponents to 60 points or fewer in the Bruce Weber era.

PREDICTION: Kansas State 65, TCU 58

Texas Longhorns vs. Texas Tech Red Raiders Preview and Predictions 2019-03-04

NCAAB Predictions 3rd March 2019 by Gracenote
by Gracenote on 03/03/2019

Texas Tech looks to keep pace in the quest for its first Big 12 regular-season championship and record an eighth-straight victory when the 11th-ranked Red Raiders host Texas on Monday night. Texas Tech shot 56.9 percent from the field to earn an 81-66 victory at TCU on Saturday to remain tied with Kansas State atop the league standings and set a school record for wins in Big 12 play (12).

"We always feel like we are the underdog and have a chip on our shoulder," Red Raiders coach Chris Beard told reporters. "That's just us. This game was the biggest game that we've ever played or coached in. That's how we approached each game. I'd hate to go into any game thinking the other guy wanted it more than us. Our guys were ready to play (Saturday)." Texas Tech has won the last three games in the series by a combined 12 points, including a 68-62 victory at the Longhorns on Jan. 12 with 22 points from senior guard Matt Mooney. Texas appears to have enough quality wins to reach the NCAA Tournament field - including triumphs against North Carolina, Purdue and Kansas - and followed up a heartbreaking overtime loss to Baylor with a 17-point win over Iowa State on Saturday. "Sometimes when you put a ton into a game and you feel like you're gonna get it and don't get it, that can be a gut punch that can affect you the next game," Longhorns coach Shaka Smart told reporters after the 86-69 win. "At the very beginning of (Saturday's) game, you could see a little bit of residue. We got in the first huddle, and said, 'We have to have a level of juice and energy out there.'"

TV: 9 p.m. ET, ESPN

ABOUT TEXAS (16-13, 8-8 Big 12): Sophomore guard Jase Febres has taken full advantage of three starts in place of indefinitely suspended leading scorer Kerwin Roach II (15.0), averaging 21.3 points after scoring a career-high 26 on Saturday. "I had a lot of open looks," Febres told reporters after connecting on 8-of-10 from 3-point range Saturday to improve his season scoring average to 9.1. "A lot of teams now deny me (the ball), but I was wide open and (teammates) kept feeding me." Freshman guard Courtney Ramey has also stepped up his level of production while averaging 15.3 points the last three games -- 7.2 above his season mark.

ABOUT TEXAS TECH (24-5, 12-4): Sophomore guard Jarrett Culver tops the team in scoring (17.9), rebounds (6.2) and assists (3.7) after recording 15 points, seven assists, six boards and five steals at TCU. Sophomore guard Davide Moretti, who shoots 45.8 percent from 3-point range, is averaging 15.8 points the past four games to push his season mark to 11.3 -- just ahead of Mooney (10.7), who registered six assists in each of the last three contests. Senior forward Tariq Owens has scored in double figures in five straight games and leads the team with 69 blocks -- two shy of Tony Battie's single-season school record in 1996-97.

TIP-INS

1. Texas freshman F Jaxson Hayes entered Sunday second in the nation in field goal percentage (72.8).

2. The Red Raiders are among the national leaders in scoring defense (58.4) and opponents field-goal percentage (36.7).

3. Longhorns senior F Dylan Osetkowski tops the team in rebounding (7.6) and is averaging 13.3 points the last three games.
