| NBA basketball odds: Philadelphia 76ers at Indiana Pacers |
| Mar 17, 2014 |
| It will take a minor miracle for the Philadelphia 76ers not to lose
their franchise-record 21st consecutive game on Monday night when they
visit the team with the best record in the NBA in Indiana, which opened
as one of the biggest favorites of the season on WagerWeb. Indiana had quite an unlikely win on Saturday, rallying from a 25-point second-quarter deficit to beat Detroit 112- ... read more |
| NHL hockey odds: Anaheim Ducks at Colorado Avalanche |
| Mar 14, 2014 |
| It’s a potential Western Conference Finals preview on Friday night as
Pacific Division leading Anaheim visits Central Division No. 2 Colorado
in the game of the night. The Avs opened as slight WagerWeb chalk. The Avalanche got an impressive 3-2 home win over Chicago on Wednesday. Semyon Varlamov stopped 37 shots for his 100th NHL win, helping the Avalanche take four of five in the s ... read more |
| NBA basketball odds: Indiana Pacers at Philadelphia 76ers |
| Mar 14, 2014 |
| The Philadelphia 76ers aren’t very likely to end their 18-game losing
streak on Friday night as they face Eastern Conference-leading Indiana
in the City of Brotherly Love. The Pacers are double-digit chalk at
WagerWeb. The sad-sack Sixers were beaten 115-98 at home by Sacramento on Wednesday in one of their best chances to win the rest of this season. Henry Sims posted career-highs ... read more |

improve their seeding with a strong run in the first-ever American

| Pac-12 Tournament odds: Must-win game for Stanford vs. Arizona State |
| Mar 13, 2014 |
| By all accounts, Stanford is very much on the NCAA Tournament bubble and there already have been a few teams winning their conference tournaments that weren’t supposed to, meaning a few less at-large bids will be available. Thus the Cardinal likely must beat Arizona State in the Pac-12 Tournament on Thursday night in Las Vegas to have any shot at a berth. ASU opened as a solid WagerWeb favori ... read more |
| ACC Tournament basketball odds: Florida State vs. Maryland |
| Mar 13, 2014 |

Greensboro. Maryland is of course off to the Big Ten next year. FSU
still has a shot at an NCAA Tournament berth but needs at least a few
wins in the ACC Tournament. Maryland is 1.5-point WagerWeb
chalk. FSU ended the season with a 74-58 h ... read more |
| NBA basketball odds: Brooklyn Nets at Miami Heat |
| Mar 12, 2014 |

| NBA basketball odds: Houston Rockets at Oklahoma City Thunder |
| Mar 11, 2014 |
| Ever since Russell Westbrook returned from injury right after the
All-Star Break, the Oklahoma City Thunder haven’t looked right. They
have lost five of eight and look to stop a two-game skid Tuesday night
in a potential playoff preview against Houston, which has the best
record in the NBA in 2014. OKC is 4-point WagerWeb chalk. The Thunder were huge favorites Sunday at the Lak ... read more |
| NBA basketball odds: Boston Celtics at Indiana Pacers |
| Mar 11, 2014 |
| The Indiana Pacers have lost a season-high four straight
games heading into Tuesday’s game with Boston but they have
been fortunate enough that Miami has lost three consecutive so Indiana
still leads the Eastern Conference by 1.5 games. The Pacers are

| NCAA basketball odds: Saint Mary’s vs. Gonzaga |
| Mar 10, 2014 |
| Gonzaga will be playing in the NCAA Tournament regardless of what
happens in Monday night’s West Coast Conference semifinal against Saint
Mary’s, but it’s a must-win for the Gaels if they hope to get an
at-large berth. Or they could just win the tournament and make it a
moot point. Goznaga opened as 5-point WagerWeb chalk. The Zags were the WCC regular-season champs and heavy t ... read more |
| NBA basketball odds: Philadelphia 76ers at New York Knicks |
| Mar 10, 2014 |
| The Philadelphia 76ers continue with their obvious attempt to tank the
rest of the season and land the best draft pick possible as they carry
a 16-game losing streak into Monday night’s game at a Knicks club
almost struggling as much. But just to show you how bad the Sixers are,
New York opened as 15.5-point WagerWeb chalk. The Sixers were beaten easily Saturday night at home by one ... read more |
| NHL hockey odds: Toronto Maple Leafs at Anaheim Ducks |
| Mar 10, 2014 |

fewer points than the Ducks. Anaheim opened as -185 WagerWeb chlak on
the moneyline. The Ducks lost 3-2 in a shootout Friday night to Pittsburgh in what might have been a S ... read more |

| Mar 8, 2014 |

line as the clear two best programs in the conference, New Mexico and
San Diego State face off on Saturday night. The Aztecs are solid home
chalk at WagerWeb. SDS won a tough game Wednesday, 73-64 at UNLV, which badly needed the victory to boost its NCAA Tournament resume. San Diego State (26-3, 15-2 Mountain West ... read more |
| NCAA basketball odds: No. 14 North Carolina at No. 4 Duke |
| Mar 8, 2014 |
| College basketball’s final Saturday of the regular season wouldn’t be
complete without the best rivalry in the sport as North Carolina looks
for a surprising sweep of Duke on Saturday night, but the Blue Devils
are slight WagerWeb chalk. Duke perhaps was caught looking ahead on Wednesday as it was stunned 82-72 at a bad Wake Forest team, which all but cost Duke a top seed in the NC ... read more |
| NCAA basketball odds: No. 25 Kentucky at No. 1 Florida |
| Mar 8, 2014 |
| The Florida Gators look to complete a rare unbeaten season in the SEC
on Saturday afternoon, and all but lock up the No. 1 overall seed in

| NCAA basketball odds: No. 4 Duke at Wake Forest |
| Mar 5, 2014 |

has clinched that but the Blue Devils still have a shot to earn the No.
2 seed in the conference tournament if they defeat Wake Forest on
Wednesday and North Carolina on Saturday. Duke is solid chalk
over the struggling Deacons at WagerWeb. Duke has won two consecutive since a loss to those Heels. It beat V ... read more |

Thunder are whopping 19.5-point WagerWeb chalk. The 76ers lost 92-81 in Orlando on Sunday. The 76ers’ run is their longest since 1994, when they lost 15 straight, and incl ... read more |
