Monday NBA Hoops Preview (Feb. 23)

Spurs The Team To Bet On Tonight

The San Antonio Spurs are backed by an interesting nba betting trend Tuesday night as they get ready to host their arch rivals, the Dallas Mavericks.

San Antonio (37-17) is returning from a grueling eight-game road trip that happens every year when the rodeo is in town and using their arena.

A lot of teams coming off long road trips will play flat in their first game at home, but not the Spurs. In the six seasons following the ‘Rodeo Trip’ the Spurs have won and covered the spread every time with the average margin of victory a whopping 18.6 PPG.

CBB Preview: Demon Deacons vs. Blue Devils (Feb. 22)

Top 10 Teams Collide – (8) Wake Forest at (9) Duke

Game-day: 2/22/2009
Tip-off: 7:45 pm est.

The Wake Forest Demon Deacons travel to Duke to take on the Blue Devils. Duke hasn’t been all that great lately. They still have a fantastic straight-up record of 21 and 5, but they’ve lost two out of their last three games, to North Carolina and Boston College, and their against the spread record is an underachieving 11-13-1.

College Hoops Preview: Sooners vs. Longhorns (Feb. 21)

(2) Oklahoma vs. Texas – Blake Griffin is the MAN

The Oklahoma Sooners travel to Texas to take on the Longhorns in a game where Oklahoma could further solidify themselves as a contender for the National Championship. The Sooners have been very good straight-up this season going 25 and 1. Their record against the spread in the Sportsbook is 12-8-1 but it’s good enough to put them into the Power Rankings.

College Hoops Preview: Bulls vs. Huskies (Feb. 21)

Top Team in the Nation – South Florida vs. Connecticut

Game-day: 2/21/2009
Tip-off: 2:00 pm est.

Another highly ranked team, the Connecticut Huskies, will try to bounce back from a terrible loss at the hands of the Pittsburgh Panthers. The Huskies not only lost the game but they lost Jerome Dyson for the season. Connecticut is still a very good team straight-up at 24 and 2, but their against the spread record in the BetUS online sportsbook leaves something to be desired at 10 and 10.
