NFL – Panthers edge Pats, win 6th straight

NBA – Portland blazes by Nets

LaMarcus Aldridge’s 27 points led the way for the Portland Trail Blazers — now winners of seven straight — as they overcame the Brooklyn Nets, 108-98.

NCAAB – Parker stars in Duke win

After Belmont’s heroics the night before, there were no major upsets last night as all ranked schools — notably #1 Michigan State and #6 Duke — took care of business on their home floor. Duke’s star freshman Jabari Parker had another great game, with 21 points and 10 rebounds.

NBA – Atlanta Hawks vs Miami Heat
[sc:NBA240banner ]
After a week where they went 4-1 SU, the Atlanta Hawks now own the 4th-best record in the Eastern Conference. The high-flying Hawks are a whopping 5th in the NBA in Offensive Efficiency, with 4th year guard Jeff Teague (19 points, 9 assists per game) leading the way.

Odds: Hawks (+9.5) vs Heat (-9.5); O/U: 207.0

But tonight they face the team with the 2nd-best record in the East and the best Offensive Efficiency in the NBA: the defending champions, Miami Heat. Rumors of Miami’s demise have been greatly exagerrated; the Heat are 6-1 SU in their last 7 games, and 7-1 ATS in their last 8 meetings vs tonight’s opponents, the Hawks.

NHL – Chicago Blackhawks vs Colorado Avalanche

The defending champion Blackhawks are hitting their stride, with 8 wins in their last 10 games. Chicago is also 7-3 SU in their last 10 road games. As one would expect, Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews (40 points combined) have been chiefly responsible for the league’s best offense (3.6 goals/game).

Odds: Blackhawks (-120) vs Avalanche (EVEN); O/U: 5.5

Tonight, they must get past the stingy Semyon Varlamov in the Colorado goal. After a hot start, the Avs have come down to earth with three straight losses. They still remain a tough out at the Pepsi Center, going 7-3 SU in their last 10 home games.
