See spot. See spot bet: This week's best NBA spot bet opportunities
By STEVE MERRIL

Spot bets are classic handicapping practices that have proven profitable no matter what sport you’re betting. Whether it’s a team looking past this week’s opponent, one coming off a hard-fought victory, or a rough patch of schedule, bettors can find value picking their spots.

Covers Expert Steve Merril points out the best spot bet opportunities on the NBA schedule this week:

Letdown spot

Memphis beat Oklahoma City in a playoff series last season, but the Thunder beat the Grizzlies 116-100 earlier this year. The Grizzlies will be looking to avenge that home loss Tuesday night. If Memphis is successful in doing so, then its game the very next night in Milwaukee will be a difficult spot.

That game against the Bucks also precedes a return home where the Grizzlies play a pair of games on their home court. Memphis has come on strong recently, going 7-4 SU and 9-2 ATS over its last 11 games. The Grizzlies’ four losses have come by eight, four, three, and two points.

Lookahead spot

The Los Angeles Clippers have a pair of back-to-back games on the East Coast this week - the first two stops of a seven-game road trip. The Clippers will play in New York against the Knicks Friday night, and then against the Pacers in Indiana Saturday. They beat the Knicks easily earlier this season, so that’s not the game they have their eyes on.

Indiana beat the Clippers in Los Angeles 105-100 back on December 1. The Pacers controlled that game, leading by as many as 14 points while the Clippers only lead was by a single point. Los Angeles will be looking to atone for that home loss to Indiana, so it may lack focus the night before in New York.

Schedule spot

The Miami Heat will be a focused team on Wednesday when they play the Wizards in Washington, D.C. The Heat will be going into that game off four full days of rest, while the Wizards will be playing their fourth game in six nights.

Miami will also be playing off back-to-back road losses at New York (102-92) and at Brooklyn in double overtime (104-95). Miami is starting a four-game road trip with this game, so it will be important for it to start off with a win. Washington lost 103-93 in Miami back on November 3.

See spot. See spot bet: This week's best NHL spot bet opportunities
By SEAN MURPHY

Spot bets are classic handicapping practices that have proven profitable no matter what sport you’re betting. Whether it’s a team looking past this week’s opponent, one coming off a hard-fought victory, or a rough patch of schedule, bettors can find value picking their spots.

Covers Expert Sean Murphy points out the best spot bet opportunities on the NHL schedule this week:

Letdown spot

The Edmonton Oilers pulled off a shocking win over the Pittsburgh Penguins Friday night and then packed their bags for a trip to Chicago to face the defending Stanley Cup champion Blackhawks two nights later.

This isn't a classic letdown spot, as the Oilers will have had a full day off to regroup, but I'm thinking we'll see a less-than-inspired effort from the young Oilers as they head to Dallas to counter the Stars Tuesday night. Road wins haven't come easy for the Oilers and I suspect they'll be in tough against a sneaky-good opponent in this spot.

Lookeahead spot

Calgary is reeling right now and things won't get any easier Monday night as the Flames face the surging Hurricanes in Carolina. A better opportunity for Calgary to snap its losing streak awaits Tuesday, when it makes a stop in Nashville to take on the struggling Predators.

A trip to Carolina doesn't serve as a strong motivational spot for Western Conference squads at the best of times. While the Flames should be getting up for every game out of sheer desperation, they might just be a no-show in this non-conference tilt Monday.

Schedule spot

This isn't going to be an easy week for the New Jersey Devils. After defeating the Panthers in Florida Saturday, they traveled to Toronto to face the Leafs in a quick turnaround Sunday. After that it's on to Montreal for a date with the Habs Tuesday.

That's where things get dicey. New Jersey will make the long trek to Colorado on only one day of rest (if you can call it that) before wrapping up their whirlwind road trip with a stop in Phoenix Saturday. Don't count on a peak performance from the Devils in the desert. For its part, Phoenix will have been home since Wednesday, before it opens a three-game homestand against Vancouver one night later.

Numbers game: Cappers share best stats for betting basketball

There are many ways to wager on basketball. Some look at situational spots while others ride hot or cold teams. The one thing that is common among those practices is paying attention to the stats and trends.

We asked our Covers Experts what numbers they pay attention to and which stats provide the best betting info. Whether you’re wagering on the NBA or the college kids, these stats are the ones that matter most to basketball bettors.

Sean Murphy – “In college basketball, I put a lot of weight in free-throw percentage (made of course). Teams that hit their free throws are able to close out games and cover spreads - plain and simple. There's a wide disparity between good and bad free-throw shooting teams at the college level, and ATS records tend to correlate.”

Nick Parsons – “It’s no surprise that five of the top six rebounding teams in the NBA - Oklahoma City, Golden State, Indiana, Portland and Houston - are all above .500 SU and as of early this week were 22 games above .500 ATS. Even Memphis - the league’s No. 4 rebounding team - is flirting with .500. Bad teams do not rebound well.”

Art Aronson – “Objects in motion tend to stay in motion, so find a motivated team by checking the results of its last five games. Every good team in the league has at least one decent streak to ride – the Clippers won 17 games in a row last season when no one was looking, and the Heat went from Feb. 3 to March 25 without losing. Never hurts to check out how has team has done in the last few weeks.”

Doc’s Sports – “When handicapping college basketball, we always look at the shooting percentage of road teams we are thinking of using as a selection. Generally, for a road team to have success, they need to shoot the ball well from the perimeter. Road teams can’t depend on the refs for help since generally the home team will shoot more free throws than the visitor. Therefore it is imperative that they make shots from long range. If a road team shoots less than 33 percent from the 3-point line, we will not use them as a selection.”

Marc Lawrence – “What I look for a lot are games involving teams with disparate results in their last game. The combination of “Never is a team as good as they look in their best win, nor as bad as they appear in their worst loss”, is often times cemented with a major line adjustment by the linesmakers. This creates value, and there is nothing better than value with a hungry team.”

Bryan Power – “For me, the stat I look at in NBA Handicapping is YTD (Year to Date) point differential. I find it to be a far better predictor of future performance than simply looking at a team's win/loss record. Take for example, Monday's game between the Timberwolves and 76ers. Minnesota came into that game off two tough losses in its previous three games, but still had a YTD point differential north of +4.0 per game. Meanwhile, despite an inexplicable four-game SU/ATS win streak, the Sixers have one of the worst YTD point differentials in the league at -7.7 PPG. I took Minnesota in that game and they won by 31.”

Teddy Covers – “I won't make a bet on an NBA total without looking at John Hollinger's offensive and defensive efficiency numbers. And from a pointspread perspective, look at the enormous ATS differences between Hollinger's top eight defensive-efficiency teams vs. the bottom eight. Pretty dramatic.”

Jesse Schule – “For college hoops, I would be careful in putting too much stock in a team's record versus ranked opponents. The rankings change week to week, there are plenty of tough teams that are not ranked in the Top 25. And as I have illustrated in my weekly "Exposing the Top 25" column, not all of those Top 25 teams deserve to be ranked.”

Kentucky at Arkansas: What bettors need to know

Kentucky Wildcats at Arkansas Razorbacks (OFF)

Kentucky’s latest group of fabulous freshmen seems to be coming together on the defensive end in four straight wins. The 16th-ranked Wildcats will try to make it five in a row when they play the second of back-to-back road games at Arkansas on Tuesday. Kentucky held its first two Southeastern Conference foes to an average of 62.5 points, helping to make up for some issues on the other end of the floor.

The Razorbacks dropped their first two in SEC play but proved they could break through a strong defense and hang with a ranked team in an 84-82 overtime loss to Florida on Saturday. Arkansas is especially potent offensively in its own building, where it is putting up an average of 94.3 points in the last four games. The Wildcats are second in the SEC in scoring offense behind the Razorbacks but have a big advantage on the inside with Julius Randle.

TV: 9 p.m. ET, ESPN

LINE: The line and total are currently off the board.

ABOUT KENTUCKY (12-3, 6-5-2 ATS): The Wildcats lead the SEC in rebounding offense thanks in large part to Randle, who averages a double-double at 16.7 points and 10.9 rebounds. The freshman forward failed to reach double figures in scoring in either of the first two SEC games but averaged 12.5 rebounds despite constant attention from the opposition. “You have to understand, he’s in a dogfight.” coach John Calipari told reporters of Randle. “I think right now that he’s the only college player that when he catches the ball, he’s got three guys on him.”

ABOUT ARKANSAS (11-4, 7-5 ATS): The Razorbacks have their own freshman starting forward in Bobby Portis, who will likely combine with Coty Clarke to handle the defense on Randle. Arkansas will not be afraid to run with the Wildcats and let a trio of starting guards lead the offense. Rashad Madden scored a career-best 23 points against Florida on Saturday but sits third on the team in scoring (11.2) behind fellow guard Michael Qualls (12.7 points) and Portis (12.5) in a balanced attack. The Razorbacks lead the SEC in assists (16.7) despite not having a single player average more than Clarke’s 2.2.

TRENDS:

* Home team is 4-0 ATS in the last four meetings.
* Favorite is 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings.
* Over is 4-1 in the last five meetings in Arkansas.
* Kentucky is 5-2 ATS in the last seven meetings.

TIP-INS:

1. Qualls is just 6-for-33 from the field over the last three games.

2. The Wildcats lost at Arkansas 73-60 last season as Clarke went for 14 points and 12 boards.

3. The Razorbacks lead the SEC with a plus-6.33 turnover margin.

Wisconsin at Indiana: What bettors need to know

Wisconsin Badgers at Indiana Hoosiers (OFF)

Third-ranked Wisconsin puts its unbeaten record on the line when it attempts to defeat host Indiana for the 13th consecutive time Tuesday. The Badgers are off to the best start in school history and are one of three Big Ten teams to avoid a conference loss in the early part of the league schedule. The Hoosiers had to rally to defeat Penn State on Saturday to prevent opening Big Ten play with three straight defeats.

Indiana lost twice to Wisconsin last season – once in the regular season and again in the semifinals of the Big Ten tournament. The Hoosiers are in transition mode after losing four senior starters off last season’s powerhouse team and will need a superb performance to knock off the Badgers, who can tie the program record for consecutive wins (2006-07) and are coming off last Saturday's dominating victory over Illinois. “I’m certainly proud of them,” coach Bo Ryan said. “But you start thinking about that too much and it can go the other way in a hurry.”

TV: 7 p.m. ET, ESPN

LINE: The line and the total are currently off the board.

ABOUT WISCONSIN (16-0, 11-5 ATS): Freshman forward Nigel Hayes is emerging as a potent force off the bench, averaging 13 points over the past five games. Hayes is averaging 6.8 points and shooting 52.3 percent from the field but he’s refusing to let the praise over his performance or that of the team go to his head. “There was a quote we were talking about – a John Wooden quote – of ‘Don’t get caught up in the praise or criticism,’” Hayes said after the win over Illinois. “So that is what we are trying to do right now. Don’t get too high on ourselves.”

ABOUT INDIANA (11-5, 7-7-1 ATS): Little-used Austin Etherington was the hero against Penn State after he drained the go-ahead 3-pointer from the corner with 1:22 to play. The basket was only the fifth of the season for the sophomore forward averaging 1.9 points per game and Crean hopes it is the kind of moment that will propel Etherington’s confidence level skyward. “The fact that he went in and his confidence grew like it did to the point where he could knock down that shot in the corner was huge,” Crean said. “He grew up a lot and this week in the sense of he was on the court in really crucial situations.”

TRENDS:

* Wisconsin is 6-0 ATS in the last six meetings in Indiana.
* Wisconsin is 10-2 ATS in the last 12 meetings.
* Under is 4-1 in the last five meetings in Indiana.
* Underdog is 4-0 ATS in the last four meetings.

TIP-INS:

1. Indiana’s last victory over Wisconsin came on Jan. 31, 2007 when the Badgers were ranked second in the nation.

2. The Badgers committed just four turnovers against Illinois and lead the nation in fewest per game at 8.2.

3. The Hoosiers have made 20 or more free throws in four of their last five games.

Calipari is not afraid of this kind of match-up, on the road vs. pressure defense. He

NEW YORK 97-92.

*Indiana over Sacramento by 16
The Pacers have been idle since Friday and had covered seven of the first 10 times this

INDIANA 103-87.

Oklahoma City over *Memphis by 2
The Thunder rolled past the Grizzlies, 116-100, on Dec. 11 at Memphis, but that was

OKLAHOMA CITY 103-101.

*Los Angeles Lakers over Cleveland by 6
Cleveland came out of the first weekend of this month missing Kyrie Irving (check
