Friday’s Best Bet’s–Literally

The Boston Celtics will be gunning for their 10th straight victory Friday night when they visit the Detroit Pistons. Here’s a look in your Daily Sports Roundup and the rundown of all the top sports picks for Friday night.

The Gridiron Spotlight

The most scrutinized body part heading into Sunday’s Super Bowl has been Hines Ward’s knee. The Steelers wide receiver suffered a sprained MCL against the Ravens in the AFC Championship Game, and he missed practice to rest the injury on Wednesday. However, Ward practiced fully on Thursday afternoon and will start on Sunday night against the Cards – albeit with a brace on his bad knee.

Yes we hear Brandon Lang’s Super Bowl record is 48-0. That four games worse than Mel Stewart Sports.  Now we are being sent SPAM that tells us that Grant Scott also has never lost a Super Bowl pick.

Other Notable Events

The Celtics ran their winning streak to nine games on Wednesday night with a 119-100 victory over Sacramento. Eddie House scored 28 points for Boston off the bench in that contest, while Rajon Rondo chipped in with 24 points and nine assists. Detroit knocked off Minnesota 98-89 in their last outing, but that was just their third victory in their past 10 games. Rasheed Wallace led the way with 25 points for the Pistons that day. Tipoff for the Friday matchup is set for 7:00pm ET.

Celtics/Pistons is just one of 11 matchups on the NBA schedule for Friday night. The Cavaliers will be looking for an easy win when they host the Clippers, while the Lakers will be on the road in Minnesota. Rounding out the slate: Milwaukee at Toronto, Washington at Philadelphia, Miami at Indiana, New Jersey at Atlanta, Charlotte at Denver, Oklahoma City at Utah, Golden State at New Orleans, and Chicago at Sacramento; the Kings’ Wednesday defeat was their seventh straight.

The Rest of the Schedule

On the ice, the Penguins will hit the road for a game against the Devils on Friday night. Pittsburgh scored five goals in the third period to get past the rival Rangers 6-2 at home on Wednesday night, with Sidney Crosby picking up a goal and three assists. Eight other teams are in action around the NHL on Friday, with Ottawa at Columbus, Philadelphia at Tampa Bay, Nashville at Calgary, and Minnesota at Edmonton; the Oilers were pasted 10-2 by the Sabres last time out.

Finally, there’s just one ranked college hoops team in action on Friday night, as No. 13 Butler will host Valparaiso at Hinkle Fieldhouse. The Bulldogs pounded Wisconsin-Milwaukee 78-48 last time out to improve to 18-1 SU and 11-5-1 ATS on the season. The Crusaders are just 6-15 SU and 8-10 ATS through 21 games.

Other Notable Events

The Blue Devils and Demon Deacons are a combined 34-2 straight-up so far this season, but its 18-1 Duke that has the 10-game winning streak and the No. 1 spot in the current AP Poll. The Blue Devils (10-7-1 against-the-spread) bounced rival Maryland 85-44 at home in their last contest.

The Gridiron Spotlight

The Cardinals’ Larry Fitzgerald is the receiver everyone is talking about heading into the Super Bowl, so it’s no surprise that he’s the favorite to pick up the most receiving yards on Sunday on the NFL props lines. Teammate Anquan Boldin and the Steelers’ Hines Ward follow Fitzgerald on that list at most sportsbooks, although Ward’s sore knee could end up cutting into his numbers Sunday night.

BetUs Sportsbook and Bodog Life are among those that even release prop bets on the Super Bowl commercials though the meaty PETA commercial didn’t get past the censors. We will leave the second guessing to the Paul Gauguin’s armchair quarterback.

The Rest of the Schedule

The NBA rolls out a busy schedule on Wednesday, with a dozen games set for the hardwood. Headlining the early action is Sacramento at Boston, with the Celtics looking to pick up their ninth straight victory. Ray Allen and company blasted Dallas 124-100 last time out, with Allen tossing in 23 points in that victory.

The rest of the early slate: Milwaukee at Indiana, Atlanta at New York, Toronto at New Jersey, Washington at Miami, Detroit at Minnesota, Denver at New Orleans, Memphis at Oklahoma City, and Philadelphia at Houston. The Mavs will then try to bounce back with a win at home over Golden State on Wednesday night, while it’s Charlotte at Portland and Chicago at the Clippers in the west-coast contests.

Finally, the NHL offers up just four games on Wednesday, including the Rangers visiting the Penguins for an Atlantic Division matchup. Calgary will also play host to Buffalo, while Chicago visits Anaheim, and Nashville will travel to Vancouver.

Tuesday’s Gamblers Rundown

In our scorephone days when the Handicapper’s Sampler was broadcast, announcer Chris Jordan would call betting cards as strong as tonight “freight trains”. Rest assured, the sportsbooks will feel like they’ve been run over like a freight train after tonight.

The top sports betting service ever in terms of winning percentage has the NBA Game of the Year while the winningest sports handicapper in terms of units won has the Big 12 Game of the Year.
