OffshoreInsiders.com Senior Sports Handicapper Matt Rivers has a Wednesday winner on the Toronto Raptors (+9) to Miami.

Sure Toronto is one of the weaker teams in the entire NBA and sure Miami is light years the superior squad on the court today. But this is not a very good spot for the Heat and to ask them to play for a second straight day, travel up north of the border and then win going away by double digits just seems too extreme for me.

The 15-40 Raptors certainly can’t compete in an apples-to-apples type of a scenario. If things were equal than I understand this number as LeBron, Wade and Bosh are just way too good as the 39-15 or whatever record would indicate. But Erik Spoelstra’s boys just played in Indiana last night and are in a third game in four-day scenario which included a rough one in Boston over the weekend.

The Raptors have been off since the Sunday home win against the Clippers and should be perfectly rested. A team doesn’t want too many days off but a few is never bad and with Andrea Bargnani, Jose Calderon, Demar Derozan and at least some talent, not a ton, but some, I will grab this home dog against a potentially dog tired Heat team and take my chances.

We saw the Lakers implode in a similarly difficult situation at Charlotte on Monday night and this may not be a carbon copy but it could be in that realm.

Top expert pick on this game: Toronto +9

For more information: The 500,000* bomb cashed the ticket on Tuesday as Virginia Tech protected its home court as I said they would. Am I content with one big-time winner? Heck no! That’s the past and now I’m ready to wreak some more havoc and bury that crookie. A pair of winners out of the Big 10 including a 400,000* move from West Lafayette between Wisconsin and Purdue along with a bonus 200,000* involving Michigan and Illinois. 2-0? Bang and Bang!

Now to the latest update on the Margin of Cover standings.  Renamed “sweat barometer” in Chad Millman of ESPN’s column, MOC is similar to scoring margin, but it is measured by how much a team covers or fails to cover the point spread.

Many sports handicappers believe MOC is invaluable in isolating under and overvalued teams.   To the top of the NCAA basketball standings (12 lines games minimum):

Team                                      Spread Record                     Margin of Cover

Texas                                      15-5                                        5.9

George Mason                        20-5                                        5.4

Duquesne                              12-4-1                                                5.3

Yale                                         8-4                                          5.0

Idaho                                      14-7-1                                                4.2

San Francisco                         14-6                                        4.0

Now to the bottom—or to the top of teams for bettors to fade:

Team                                      Spread Record                     Margin of Cover

Central Florida                      5-12                                        -5.4

Michigan State                       8-15                                        -5.1

South Alabama                      7-12                                        -4.5

Texas Tech                             8-13                                        -4.1

Western Illinois                     3-15                                        -4.0

With the All-Star weekend approaching and many of the NBA’s biggest stars gathering in one place, now’s as good a time as any to explore NBA futures for the league MVP. Here’s a look at the top 10 favorites plus a free pick for the winner from this sports betting blog.

1.              LeBron James

Sportsbook odds: +200

LeBron James has arguably been the NBA’s best player since the start of 2011. He’s found his groove with the Heat, largely because Dwyane Wade has settled into a secondary scoring role. There’s a slight concern that Wade could steal votes but LeBron is a fair frontrunner for the award.

VERDICT: Contender

2.              Amar’e Stoudemire

Sportsbook odds: +200

Two months ago, Amar’e may have been the clear-cut favorite to capture MVP honors. But the Knicks have struggled ever since the Carmelo Anthony trade rumors surfaced. With New York no longer guaranteed to make the playoffs, can we take Stoudemire seriously in the MVP race?

VERDICT: Pretender

3.              Derrick Rose

Sportsbook odds: +220

He still doesn’t have the cache of the other guys surrounding him on this list but Derrick Rose has been as good and consistent as any player in the league this year. He especially deserves mention because he helped keep the Bulls’ ship afloat despite injuries to Carlos Boozer and Joakim Noah at different points. He’s as strong a pick for the award as anyone right now.

VERDICT: Contender

4.              Kevin Durant

Sportsbook odds: +400

It’s surprising that Kevin Durant doesn’t get more love in the MVP debate. He’s poised to win his second straight league scoring title on a steadily improving team poised to win its first division title since drafting him. Will the voters finally wake up and hand him the hardware? Quite possibly.

VERDICT: Contender

5.              Dirk Nowitzki

Sportsbook odds: +500

If you believe in the theory that the MVP should truly be the guy who impacts his team the most, Dirk Nowitzki is an intriguing play. He plays for the Mavericks, they dominate. He hurts his knee, they go on a big losing streak. He gets healthy again, the Mavs get hot again. As Dirk goes, so do the Dallas Mavericks.

VERDICT: Sleeper

6.              Chris Paul

Sportsbook odds: +500

This looks like fool’s good to me. Paul is high on most NBA betting oddsmakers’ lists because he’s a “name.” But he’s on pace for four-year lows in scoring, shooting percentage and assists. How does that amount to an MVP award?

VERDICT: Pretender

7.              Dwight Howard

Sportsbook odds: +600

Howard makes for an excellent pick for two reasons. For one, he’s extremely valuable to his own team the same way Nowitzki is. Face it – the Magic would barely be a playoff team without him. Secondly, he brings more defensive prowess to the table than anyone else on this list. He’s someone you can’t forget about.

VERDICT: Contender

8.              Kobe Bryant

Sportsbook odds: +1200

As much as everyone rags on the Lakers for “struggling,” this team is still running away with its own division and Kobe Bryant is still among the league’s elite scorers. One hot month could vault him back into the MVP race.

VERDICT: Sleeper

9.              Dwyane Wade

Sportsbook odds: +1500

Barring an injury to LeBron that forces him back into the limelight, Wade has no shot at the MVP this year. He isn’t even the best player on his own team.

VERDICT: Pretender

10.           Blake Griffin

Sportsbook odds: +2000

The super-rookie Blake Griffin has absolutely been one of the most dynamic and valuable players to his team this year. However, I suspect the voters will honor him with the Rookie of the Year and not feel the need to give him an MVP award on top of that. Plus – the Clippers would have to make the playoffs for Griffin to even warrant consideration.

VERDICT: Pretender

NBA MVP free pick

I’m gonna place some faith that the voters get it “right” this year and go with Dwight Howard. He’s been as consistent as any superstar in the league this year and he significantly impacts his team at both ends of the court every night.

The sports betting world is celebrating another College Basketball Game of the Year winner on Kansas State outright over Kansas.  But the opportunities never end.

OffshoreInsiders.com Senior Sports Handicapper Matt Rivers has a winner in college basketball on Michigan State (+12.5) at Ohio State.

I thought about making the Spartans a premium play because they still have too much talent to ever be getting this much but with Delvon Roe now banged up and doubtful I just cannot trust tonight’s visitors.

Tom Izzo’s squad has been absolutely awful this season. I have no unearthly idea how MSU has been as consistently bad as they have been but to get around a dozen, even with a few missing pieces, is worth a shot. At least the men in green manned up in that last game smacking around Penn State so maybe, just maybe, they are back on the way up. It’s asking a lot in Columbus against what really is a great Ohio State team led by freshman sensation Jared Sullinger but this is still the Michigan State Spartans, isn’t it?

Korie Lucious has been dismissed from the team for a while now and Roe more than likely isn’t going to be able to go. But Sparty has been a deep team for years and it’s not like Izzo has just forgotten how to coach. They are certainly behind the eight ball and up against a team that should be a tad angry after blowing that 15 point loss and losing in Madison but one just has to think that State is going to improve dramatically here towards the end of the season as they usually seem to do and make a run.

A run may not mean a win today as that is more than likely asking a bit much against the high flying Buckeyes but like I said above, this is still “Michigan State”, isn’t it?

Top expert pick on this game: Michigan State from Matt Rivers

For more information: One play on Monday and the 300,000* banked on Syracuse. Now it’s time to bring out the big guns and one monster 500,000* big gun is certainly here. I’m talking about a pretty small single digit number that is going to end in a double-digit burial and that’s why I’m unloading the most powerful play in my entire arsenal, bar none. My mouth is literally watering at this game as if it’s a big Ruth Cris’ steak and I hardly ever eat meat.

500,000* Lock of my Life in the college ranks along with a 200,000* late night winner in the NBA involving the Hornets and Warriors. There is no doubt in my mind that not only does this 500,000* cash but it cashes by more than a full touchdown! Bang! Get Rivers picks tonight

With the All-Star game behind us and the NHL trade deadline around the corner, hockey betting shifts toward the playoffs and, of course, Stanley Cup futures. Let’s look at the top 10 current contenders.

1.              Philadelphia Flyers

Sportsbook odds: +300

We had to take them seriously from the start this year after they made an improbable run all the way to the Stanley Cup final last year. Not much has changed from that team. Philly has tremendous depth and skill up front, a bruising defense and goaltending that may or may not hold up come playoff time.

VERDICT: Contender

2.              Vancouver Canucks

Sportsbook odds: +350

It should come as no surprise that the NHL’s most complete team has dominated the league this year. The Sedin twins and Ryan Kesler have been dynamite up front and Roberto Luongo has been his usual stellar self more often than not in net. Injuries to Vancouver’s defense are a mild concern at the moment.

VERDICT: Contender

3.              Detroit Red wings

Sportsbook odds: +400

Hockey’s most successful franchise keeps getting it done without making major personnel changes every year. Nick Lidstrom just doesn’t age and the Wings still have two of the game’s best two-way players in Pavel Datsyuk and Henrik Zetterberg. Detroit could use some more size and grit, though.

VERDICT: Contender

4.              Boston Bruins

Sportsbook odds: +500

Like the Flyers, the Bruins have that “built for the playoffs” rep about them. They’re big, mean, and extremely tough to score against. They could use a bona fide sniper, though, and perhaps a puck moving defenseman to set up Zdeno Chara on the power play.

VERDICT: Sleeper

5.              Washington Capitals

Sportsbook odds: +1000

The Washington Capitals’ management frustrates me and anyone betting on them. Every year, they’re just a few pieces away from becoming top contenders. Yet they rarely trade for veteran goalie help or a rugged defenseman. Until they step up at a the deadline, they may never get over the hump.

VERDICT: Pretender

6.              Pittsburgh Penguins

Sportsbook odds: +1500

Disaster struck Pittsburgh this season. Evgeni Malkin is done for the year after blowing out his knee. Sidney Crosby is still sidelined with a concussion. I know he’s supposed to be back next month but you just never know with head injuries. The Pens don’t have the horses to keep up in the East with their top stars out.

VERDICT: Pretender

7.              Tampa Bay Lightning

Sportsbook odds: +1800

Watch out for Tampa. Under power-play guru Guy Boucher, it’s no surprise to see Tampa lighting the lamp so much. The Lightning were surrendering too many goals earlier this season but new arrival Dwayne Roloson has righted the ship in net. Could the Lightning be one defenseman away from contending for the Cup?

VERDICT: Sleeper

8.              San Jose Sharks

Sportsbook odds: +1800

Maybe all the Sharks needed was for everyone to forget about them. With the pressure off, hockey’s perennial chokers are surging up the standings. Anti Niemi, who won the Cup with Chicago last season, has been as good as any goalie in the New Year. Could San Jose make a run?

VERDICT: Contender

9.              Montreal Canadiens

Sportsbook odds: +1800

Thanks to Carey Price’s stellar season in goal and P.K. Subban’s emergence, some hockey bettors will take Montreal’s odds and hope for another miracle playoff run. This sports betting blog isn’t drinking the Kool-Aid. The Habs are still among the most talent-poor of all the playoff hopefuls.

VERDICT: Pretender

10.           Chicago Blackhawks

Sportsbook odds: +2500

Oddsmakers aren’t giving up on the defending champs, still giving them top-10 odds even though they’re barely staying in the Western Conference playoff picture. Even if the Hawks make the big dance, it will be as a low seed with no home ice. That plus their lack of depth after trading so many guys in the offseason could be their downfall.

VERDICT: Pretender

Stanley Cup free pick

I’d throw my money down on the Vancouver Canucks if I were you. They’re extremely strong at every position and their categorical rankings back that up: first in goals, first in goals against, first in power play, first in faceoff percentage, fourth in penalty killing. As long as Luongo holds up, it’s Vancouver’s year.

While the sports betting world is enthralled with Center of the Handicapping Universe GodsTips 2010-11college basketball Game of the Year, OffshoreInsiders.com Senior Sports Handicapper Matt Rivers has an NBA pick Monday is on Charlotte (+5) hosting the Los Angeles Lakers.

There is no doubt that the Los Angeles Lakers are a better team than the Bobcats but it’s a really difficult spot for the defending champions to be in.

Kobe and the gang lost yesterday in Orlando and are on the dreaded back-to-back and fourth game in five nights. It’s almost a death sentence for the Lakers today no matter how good they are and no matter how mediocre the boys from Charlotte are.

Phil Jackson’s squad beat the Celtics to begin this road trip and then downed the Knicks the next night at Madison Square Garden. After a day off they traveled down south yesterday in the loss at Orlando and now are once again on the road in another city against the Bobcats. No matter how great these Lakers can be it just shouldn’t matter. Charlotte may be fairly mediocre and underachieving this season but they still do have some players in Stephen Jackson, Gerald Wallace and the blossoming DJ Augustin and everybody pretty much gets up for the champs on their assigned night, even if things have not been going all that well.

The Bobbies just pulled off the semi shocking upset in Hotlanta on Saturday night against the quality Hawks and should be feeling at least a little better about themselves in this spot. Now the energy and enthusiasm should remain pretty high and upbeat with the big bad Lakers limping into town.

Lamar Odom is a bit banged up and no matter how much superior the visitors are in terms of talent I believe it gets neutralized due to the situation and in the end the home Bobcats are able to take care of business.

Top expert pick on this game: Charlotte from the real Matt Rivers

In recent years, ESPN’s gambling columnist Chad Millman has popularized an angle he calls, “sweat barometer” as if it’s some revolutionary, groundbreaking recently unearthed angle.

Welcome to my 1988 Chad. Utilized for decades, previously known by the more mundane “Margin of Cover” (MOC) it’s a valuable resource, but only when exercising caution. It’s exploitation is limited to rare circumstances.

First, we should define it. MOC is similar to scoring margin, but it is measured by how much a team covers or fails to cover the point spread.

The quandary with Chad’s weekly updates is that he simply posts the latest standings—college only, never NBA—but never gives a tutorial and how to avail oneself of the potential yield. This can be as dangerous as giving a 14-year-old the keys to the car, but never teaching her how to drive.

It’s an angle exploited to isolate the very few squads that oddsmakers flubbed on. But knowing how small of number instances there are as well as why to proceed with caution is imperative.

Decades of first-hand experience dictate that the “sweat barometer” is only useful for indentifying teams top and bottom of standings, though that very much includes recent play tables. In fact, riding and fading teams playing above or below their mean short-term is where it proves most beneficial. This is only if the gambler knows when to hold and when to fold.

MOC is statistically significant when it’s at least +/- 5.0 points over a period of a minimum 10-15 games and at least 3.5 once the sample size gets above 20 contests.

Still, in most recent form, at least +/- 7.0 over five games minimum proves fruitful.

One of the great scholarly discussions and debates among elite gamblers is how to weigh class (teams overall quality) versus form (recent play).

Because recent play is much more fluid than variances of how oddsmakers rate teams, MOC is most efficient in riding and fading temporary form.

The bookmaker is close to flawless much more often than not. Hence they do not overreact to recent play. If sportsbooks did, sharps would annihilate this knowing teams return to form. High positive or negative MOC, or “sweat meter” as the Johnny-come-lately posse refers to it, is a valuable tool in separating the rare exceptions to the rule.

Of noteworthiness, there is an inherent danger of the MOC statistic to the untrained eye. MOC can also be counterintuitive. The greatest gamblers exploit lines that fall short by only a point or two. Sharps constantly win games that are close against the point spread. On the other hand, the squares keep coming up on the wrong side, convincing themselves they are merely victims of bad fortune.

As professional gambler Steve Fezzik has said, “I’ve made a lot more money being a good gambler than I have being a good handicapper.” In short, betting a team at (+5) when they should only be getting 3.5 points or investing in a chalk at (-2) when they need to be wagering another point or two, is what truly separates the elitist from defeatist.

When pressing into service MOC only as commanded aforementioned, the gambler can capitalize on rare occurrences of teams greatly out or underplaying the oddsmakers expectations.

Whichever term, Margin of Cover or “sweat barometer” one prefers, by any means, the sharp player must enact prudently.

OffshoreInsiders.com Senior Sports Handicapper Matt Rivers has a Sunday NBA winner on the Miami Heat (-2) at Boston on ABC TV.

Reasoning: Doc Rivers’ Celtics are a mentally tough team that has certainly been able to step it up at times recently in big spots but I just don’t see them getting it done today. First place in the Eastern Conference is on the line and with the way LeBron and his teammates have struggled at times it’s quite astounding they can be in this position.

The Heat have not been the greatest team ever which some believed they would be but for them to still be at the top of the conference with all of the early losing shows truly how great this team is. King James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh are as good of a threesome as there is out there. Boston isn’t chopped liver with Rondo, Pierce, Allen and Garnett that’s certainly for sure but they are not as talented as the Heat and after blowing that last game to the Lakers should be up against it tonight.

Erik Spoelstra’s boys are flying high right now and are the best team in the NBA. Playing in Beantown at the Boston Garden against this experienced Boston team is not going to be easy at all but at this near pick-em price it’s still a deal.

The crowd will be rocking for this litmus type test and I think that the C’s will compete for the duration. But the bottom line is that Miami is the class of the NBA and the Heat should be able to beat anybody anywhere right now and to get them and pretty much only have to win the game in order to grab the cash is a bit too good to pass up, period.

The pick: Miami Heat from the real Matt Rivers.

For more information: A high quality 3-1 yesterday including yet another 400,000* winner on Nebraska, with ease. Right around 500,000* of profit on Saturday alone and now I continue the assault with a pair of winners on the hardwoods including a rare bomb in the NBA.

The game may stink but who cares as it all counts the same in the end. A third straight 400,000* winner is here involving Washington and Cleveland along with a 300,000* Providence and Connecticut. 2-0? For sure. Rivers entire card is up

OffshoreInsiders.com Senior Sports Handicapper Matt Rivers has a Friday night pick on the New York Knicks (+3) against the LA Lakers.

Reasoning: Obviously Kobe and the Lakers are better than the Knicks but New York has shown some signs of life this season and they are catching Phil Jackson’s boys in a tough, tough spot.

Los Angeles just tangled with the aggressive Celtics last night and are on a really tough back-to-back. Mike D’Antoni’s style has always been to push the pace and that could wreak a little bit of havoc on the potentially fatigued visitors from the left coast. The size of LA with Gasol, Odom and Bynum is never easy to defend but if the Knicks can get out on the break that advantage can be somewhat nullified. Ray Felton has had a breakthrough season running up and down the court feeding Stoudemire and guys like Wilson Chandler, Landry Fields and Danillo Gallinari have been pretty solid as well.

Both Amare Stoudemire and D’Antoni know a ton about the Lakers thanks to the days in Phoenix so nothing should really come as a surprise today. The Garden crowd will be rocking and in this litmus test type of a scenario, ala the win against the Heat a few weeks ago, I can see the New Yorkers rise to the occasion and get this thing done as the Lakers run out of gas a little in the end.

Top expert pick on this game: New York from Matt Rivers

For more information: It’s going to be a monster weekend and it all begins tonight with an Ivy League lock for the ages. One 7:00 game that is going to prove to be half a dozen points off, yes half a dozen! That last line pretty much about sums it up. Get Rivers picks

Here is a Margin of Cover (MOC) breakdown. Renamed “sweat barometer” in Chad Millman of ESPN’s column, MOC is similar to scoring margin, but it is measured by how much a team covers or fails to cover the point spread.

Many sports handicappers believe MOC is invaluable in isolating under and overvalued teams.

Duquesne and Texas remain at the top while the bottom feeders are Central Florida, Michigan State, and Texas Tech.

The following teams have “sweat barometers” of at least (+4.5):

Team                          ATS Record                          Margin of Cover

Duquesne                    12-3-1                                     6.5

Texas                           15-4                                         6.3

George Mason           18-5                                         4.8

San Francisco            14-5-1                                     4.7

Now to the best teams to fade, at least according to the sweater.

Team                          ATS Record                          Margin of Cover

Central Florida            5-11                                         -5.5

Michigan State            7-15                                         -5.4

Texas Tech                  6-13                                         -5.1

Ohio                            6-13-1                                     -4.8

South Alabama        7-12                                         -4.5

In the NBA, just three teams have MOC of 1.9 or better: Philadelphia (2.9), Chicago (2.6), and Memphis (1.9).

Two teams are head and shoulders above the rest in the fade area: Cleveland (-4.0) and Utah (-2.4).

OffshoreInsiders.com Senior Sports Handicapper Matt Rivers has a winner Thursday and it is on the LA Lakers (+2.5) at Boston.

Boston seems a tad easy here at home don’t they? This game reminds me of the other night when the superior Hawks at Philips Arena were laying a similar number of four to the decent but nothing more 76ers. We all know what happened there as the dog won by a bazillion as the oddsmaker knew what was up there and he knows what’s up here as well.

Doc’s boys have been really, really good this season and may represent the Eastern Conference when all is said and done. Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, Ray Allen and Rajon Rondo form a ferocious foursome that is experienced and hard to guard. These guys have been more consistent than the Lakers and frankly better than the Lakers this season. If the number was half a dozen plus I wouldn’t have been surprised in the slightest and that is telling me a ton. I can once again see Joe Square be all over the Celtics believing they are so easy and they will win going away and blah, blah, blah. After all Boston just went to Staples and took care of business therefore this thing back east will be a cakewalk so says the novice.

I have the feeling that tonight is where Kobe and the Lakers get some revenge for the thumping they took last week at home by these same Celtics. Los Angeles still has a height advantage with Gasol, Bynum and Odom and even if they aren’t as tough and physically strong maybe as the Celtics bigs this is a great spot for them to man up and show the league how this team is not done and can win another title with or without the potential of Carmelo Anthony coming to town.

The Lake Show are still the defending champions and a team that has failed a few times thus far in a big game spot. They lost to the C’s and Heat at home and I really think that going on the road against these teams is going to prove fruitful for Phil Jackson’s squad and as the dog I am more than fine with that while backing the Black Mamba in a big game spot.

Top expert pick on this game: LA Lakers

OffshoreInsiders.com Senior Sports Handicapper Matt Rivers has a point spread prediction Wednesday on the big North Carolina-Duke rivalry. It is on North Carolina (+10) at Duke.

Duke at Cameron Indoor certainly can whack any opponent and that includes rival North Carolina. But I will give Roy Williams’ squad some credit for suddenly looking pretty darn good. The first half of the season was fairly underachieving and it looked as if we were having somewhat of a repeat of last season’s debacle. But recently Harrison Barnes and the fellas have stepped things up and after winning five straight and 10 of their last 11 why not grab around double digits?

Duke was last season’s National Champion and with Kyrie Irving coming in probably deserved to be the top ranked team in the nation. But Coach K’s boys have not been great all of the time and there have been some chinks in the armor. They are still better than their Tobacco Road enemies even with Jon Scheyer leaving and the injury to Kyrie Irving but the gap has certainly narrowed a ton since last season and with the way the Heels have revved things up of late I’ll take my chances on them tonight plus this handsome number. UNC is 17-5 overall and boasts the 7-1 ACC mark. The players should be a lot more confident and prepared for the Dookies and the Cameron Crazies this season and in revenge after last season’s whackings are going to compete in this thing.

I’m not thinking the North Carolina program is all the way back and ready to win this game by any means but the Blue Devils aren’t invincible at all right now and with a whole lot of confidence I’ll grab the healthy sum of points with a pretty good team and take my chances.

Top expert pick on this game: North Carolina.
