Pick 'n' roll: Friday's best NBA bets

Washington Wizards at Houston Rockets (-9.5, 197.5)

The Washington Wizards gave newly-appointed coach Randy Wittman a warm welcome in his first game behind the bench, hammering Charlotte 92-75 as 7.5-point favorites.

It was their best defensive showing of the season and it snapped a skid that saw them win just once in their previous eight games. While former coach Flip Saunders was more of a player’s coach (read: pushover), Wittman isn’t going to put up poor efforts.

"If they want to play, they are going to have to be accountable," Wittman told reporters of his team. "I think every player wants to play. If they don't, we've got to find a way to get them out of here. That's pretty easy, to be honest with you. Doing your job and doing it the way it needs to be done, you'll play. If not, I'll find somebody else to play."

That’s the direct approach this team needs. The Wizards have a lot of issues, but you can at least expect them to put in an honest effort for the next while.

Pick: Wizards

New Jersey Nets at Cleveland Cavaliers (-3, 191)

A couple of days after the Nets were torched by the Bulls when they welcomed Derrick Rose back to the lineup, Deron Williams wasn’t about to let another victory slip past his team.

Williams scored 17 of his 34 points in the fourth quarter and overtime to help New Jersey to a 97-90 win at Philadelphia with the Nets set as 11.5-point underdogs.

“At the end of the game, we basically put the ball in Deron’s hands and said, ‘Take us home’ and that’s what he did,” coach Avery Johnson told reporters.

Williams has been on a major hot streak lately, averaging 21.4 points and 9.4 assists per game over his last five outings.

Cleveland is coming off an upset against the Knicks and did cover against the Heat earlier this week, but is still allowing almost 103 points per game over the last five.

Pick: Nets

Game of the day

New York Knicks at Miami Heat (N/A)


Notable quotable

“My opinion? I really hope the Giants – I just hope they just put a thrashing on the Patriots. I really do. To lose to a team like that the way we played ... we played a good game.The dinking and the dunking man? It’s just not going to happen. They are going to have to take shots down the field. I think the Giants watch our film and watch the film of the season. They gotta take away their big time players. (Tight end Rob) Gronkowski, I think he is coming off that ankle, so I don’t know if he will be 100 percent." – Baltimore Ravens tight end Bernard Pollard about the Super Bowl matchup between the New England Patriots and New York Giants.

Notes and tips

Wide receiver Hakeem Nicks was among seven players who did not practice for the New York Giants on Thursday. Nicks suffered a shoulder injury in New York's overtime win over San Francisco in the NFC Championship Game. Giants coach Tom Coughlin said he expected all of his players to be ready go for the Super Bowl matchup with the New England Patriots. Nicks has been spectacular in the postseason. He was limited to five receptions for 55 yards against the 49ers, but has 18 catches and four touchdowns in New York's three playoff victories.

Milwaukee Bucks center Andrew Bogut will be sidelined indefinitely with a fractured left ankle. Bogut was injured in Wednesday's game against Houston when he landed on the foot of Rockets guard Kyle Lowry. Bogut has battled injuries the past two seasons, most notably from a fall toward the end of the 2009-10 season in which he hurt his right hand and elbow in a hard fall to the floor. The former No. 1 overall pick in 2005, Bogut is averaging 11.3 points, 8.3 rebounds and 2.0 blocked shots. The Bucks visit Chicago Friday.

Spencer Levin and Kyle Stanley each shot a 10-under-par 62 to share the lead Thursday after the first round of the Farmers Insurance Open in San Diego. Both are set at +1400 to win the tournament. Levin birdied eight of his final 10 holes in his bogey-free round and Stanley offset his lone bogey with an eagle at the 18th hole on the North Course at Torrey Pines. Bill Haas was alone in second place at 9-under 63 despite a double bogey at the par-3 sixth. He had 11 birdies in his round and is currently pegged as the tournament favorite at +800.

Loyola-Chicago vs. Wright State     
Play: Wright State -8½

Wright State has won and covered 4 straight over Loyola Chicago, including a 64-48 thumping back in December. Now with Guard, Julius Mays back from injury at 100%, the Raiders top-scorer (14.4 PPG) can devour the Ramblers, who are literally defenseless against him. Loyola's offense had their best performance, scoring 69 against Rockhurst. Their back court is embarrassing. If it weren't for Forward's, Averkampt and Gibler, this squad would probably forfeit the season. Loyola is 2-10 SU on the road, 0-10 vs. the Horizon, and average a mere 53.4 PPG away from home. The Ramblers are 1-5 ATS their L6 games played at the Raiders and 3-8 ATS their L11 games vs. the Horizon League. The Raiders are 4-1 ATS their L5 games played at home and 7-3 ATS their L10 overall. Take Wright State.
Sean Murphy

Marist @ Siena
PICK: Siena -9

Marist is mired in another lost season, and things only seem to be getting worse.

The Red Foxes have dropped five games in a row, both SU and ATS, and are coming off an ugly 44-point effort against Manhattan last Friday night. In this particular case, I don't believe the one-week layoff will serve them well.

Siena pulled off an improbable 65-62 win over Iona on Monday night, but I don't expect to see any sort of a letdown here. That's because the Saints were blown out in back-to-back games last week, and remain just 4-5 in MAAC play this season.

The Saints have played exceptionally well in conference play here at home, going a perfect 4-0 SU and 3-0-1 ATS since the start of January.

Marist has managed to go 4-0-2 ATS in the last six meetings in this series, but keep in mind, the Red Foxes have lost all six of those games outright, and have been 'dogged by at least 13.5 points in their three trips to Siena over that stretch.

We're looking at a more reasonable number tonight, even though the Red Foxes are sending another awful team to the court. Look for the Saints confidence to show following that come-from-behind win over Iona.
Rob Vinciletti

Toronto Raptors vs. Denver Nuggets
Play: Toronto Raptors +11.5

Toronto fits the nice system illustrated below that plays against Denver and all home favorites of 10 or more with 1 day of rest that scored 120 or more on the road as a favorite of 5 or more. These teams tend to bounce off the big scoring effort failing to cover 11 of the last 12 times since 1995. Denver has failed to cover 2 of 3 times as a home favorite in this range and they are coming off a long road trip which was made even longer by 3 days off prior to their last game. This could be a potential flat spot for them against a Toronto team us coming off back to back road dog wins and has covered 3 of 4 times as a road dog of 9.5 to +12. Look for Toronto to hang around for the cover. On Friday I have 2 top plays. The 94% Metro Atlantic Game of the Month and a NBA Dog with Bite that wins outright. Last night was another stellar night with 3 more Winners including top play blowout winner on Colorado. Look for the Hot streak to continue tonight. Jump on and start the weekend big. For the free Play take the Toronto Raptors.
Jim Feist

Harvard vs Yale
Pick: Yale

A rivalry game in the Ivy League has Harvard battles Yale. No. 23 Harvard is having a great season, but their opponent here is very good and will be sky high for their rival. The Crimson are 17-36 ATS in their last 53 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. Yale is unbeaten at home (5-0) and the Bulldogs are 6-2-1 ATS in their last 9 games vs. a team with a winning record. Harvard is 2-10 ATS in the last 12 meetings, as well as 1-5 ATS in the last 6 meetings in Yale. Play Yale!
Matt Fargo

Manhattan @ Canisius
PICK: Manhattan

Manhattan is staying with the rest of the pack in the MAAC as it is riding a five-game winning streak heading into this weekend. We won with the Jaspers last Friday as they easily took care of Marist and then came back and won at home against Niagara. This seems to be no fluke as the Jaspers took out league contenders Fairfield and Iona in back-to-back games, the latter coming by way of a 17-point comeback with just eight minutes remaining. One of the two conference losses came by just a point.

Canisius meanwhile is having a dreadful season as it is 4-15 overall including 1-8 in the conference. The Golden Griffins haven't come close to defeating a quality opponent as those four wins came against teams ranked 344, 330, 290 and 281 and have a combined record of 18-58. they have just two home wins with one of those coming against Binghamton, which is 0-20, and Marist, which has dropped five straight games by double-digits.

Manhattan is excellent defensively. The Jaspers are first in the MAAC in field-goal and three-point percentage defense, as well as team defense rebounding percentage. They are allowing just 63.3 ppg which is second lowest in the conference. Manhattan is also tops in the MAAC in free-throw percentage which is obviously very important. The Jaspers are 4-1 ATS as favorites in this price range this year including 2-0 ATS on the road and this number is very manageable for a team filled with confidence.

This is a revenge game for Manhattan as well as it has lost three straight in this series including both meetings last season. The Jaspers have not been a very good over the last couple years so when they have the opportunity to pounce on a now weaker opponent, they will do so since they have been on the other end of it. Manhattan is 13-4 ATS in its last 17 games against teams with a losing record and it is a perfect 7-0 ATS in its last seven games following a cover loss.
Marc Lawrence

New York Knicks at Miami Heat
Prediction: New York Knicks

A big battle in the NBA East Division tips off in Miami where the Heat plays host the Knicks at American Airlines Arena Friday night. New York enters in a slumber off a disappointing loss as road chalk at Cleveland with a 4-14 ATS record this year. If there is one venue that's been known to wake the Knicks up, though, its here where New York is 16-5-1 ATS in games in which the Heat enters off a win, including 6-0 SU and ATS when the Knicks arrive off a loss of six or more points. With Miami eyeing up a bigger showdown Sunday with Chicago, look for history to rear its head here once again tonight. Take the points. We recommend a 1-unit play on New York.

Free Selection for Friday: Manhattan Jaspers - 10
Larry Ness | NBA Sides
Free pick 824 POR -9.0 (-110) Bookmaker.com vs 823 PHOAnalysis: My free play is on the Por Blazers at 10:05 ET. The Blazers are happy to be home, after playing a stretch of SEVEN games away from home over their last nine. Portland went 2-5 SU and ATS in those games and fell to 3-7 SU and ATS on the road this season. The Blazers average a modest 90.4 PPG on 40.9 percent shooting in road games but here in the Rose Garden, the Blazers have gone 8-1 SU (7-1-1 ATS) while averaging 103.4 PPG on 45.8 percent shooting. About the only good news here for the Suns is that the team comes in well rested, having not played since Tuesday. However, that was hardly an impressive outing, as the Suns lost 99-96 at home to the 6-13 Raptors (4-8 on the road). It's hard to recognize this Suns team from recent additions, without a program. Steve Nash (14,5-10.4 APG) is still the PG but his 31.9 minutes per game are his fewest since the 1998-99 season (in Dallas) and his 10.4 assists per game are his least since 2008-09. Dudley (9.7) had been starting the in the backcourt with him (actually a forward) but now it's Price (4.7), which is hardly an improvement. Hill (9.2) is LONG past his prime at SF and now Kansas rookie Markieff Morris (7.5-5.1) has replaced Frye (7.1-5.9) in the starting lineup at PF (that is an improvement). It can be argued that former Orlando backup center Gortat (15.4-9.9), is now the team's best player, which pretty much sums up the state of the Suns. Warrick (8.6) was leading the team in scoring in the early going (coming off the bench) but his numbers keep dropping. Former Laker Shannon Brown (9.5) sometimes finds a good matchup and 'lights things up," but those efforts are not a nightly occurrence. Getting back to the Blazers, head coach Nate McMillan has an excellent seven-man rotation. Aldridge (22.5-8.9) and Wallace (13.3-7.3) surround Camby (3.2-9.4) up front with Matthews (13.4) taking over for Roy at SG and Felton (10.7-6.8) settling in nicely at PG. Crawford (13.3) was signed away from Atlanta to provide a scoring 'punch' off the bench while Batum (11.1-4.2) just may be the team's best athlete and is surely its best overall defender. Portland is seeking its SIXTH straight home victory over Phoenix tonight and should be well-focused. Phoenix caught Portland coming off a highly-satisfying win against the Lakers the previous night and handed Portland its worst defeat of the season back on Jan 6, winning 102-77. However, the Suns have hardly 'shown' since then, going 3-7 SU and ATS since besting the Blazers. What has also caught my attention is that the Suns have pretty much 'stopped playing defense." Except for a 79-71 win at Boston in the 10-game stretch since last taking on the Blazers, the Suns have allowed 100.3 PPG in their other nine games. I mentioned earlier that the Blazers are averaging 103.4 PPG at home this year and also that the Blazers have won FIVE straight home meetings vs the Suns. Let me add here that in those five wins, the Blazers are averaging a whopping 114.0 PPG! The Blazers should win this going away.
Good luck...Larry

Your free winner for Friday:Take HOUSTON -10 over Washington
JEFF BENTON COMP

Your Friday night freebie is the Oklahoma City Thunder as the road favorite late night tonight in Oaktown.

Mark Jackson has definitely given the Golden State Warriors a pulse in his first season at the helm in Oakland, but the Warriors are a bit over-matched tonight versus a Thunder team that has lost only once straight up in their last eleven games, and against the spread, Oak City has covered seven of their previous nine!

Golden State just snapped a three-game losing streak, and they are only 4-6 versus the number in their ten home games to date this season. In the series, the Warriors are on a 3-7 slide the last ten meetings, and it has been the road team in this series that has covered in twelve of the last seventeen showdowns.

Stephen Curry is back in the lineup for State, but their are still plenty of matchup problems for the Warriors to deal with against one of the elite teams in the league this evening.

Have to lay the road chalk as Oklahoma City delivers.
