The NBA offers up seven games on Saturday, with Detroit at Atlanta, Denver at Memphis, New York at Dallas, New Jersey at Houston, the Clippers at San Antonio, Toronto at Golden State, and Orlando at Washington. The Magic (46-20 SU, 34-29-3 ATS) rolled to their seventh straight win on Thursday night, blasting Chicago 111-82. Vince Carter had a game-high 23 points for Orlando in that win, while Matt Barnes was good for 14 points. However, the Magic are 0-2 against the Wizards so far this year, losing 104-97 on January 8 and 92-91 on February 5. Orlando was favored in both of those games, which were both UNDER results.
As well, Saturday's college basketball schedule features either semi-final or championship matchups in 16 conference tournaments. Reaching the semi-final stage on Saturday are the ACC, Atlantic 10, Southeastern, and Big Ten events, while championship games will be played in each of the Mid-Eastern, America East, Southland, Southwestern, Western Athletic, Mid-American, Big West, Mountain West, Conference USA, Pacific-10, Big 12, and Big East conferences.
From Matt Rivers: It's like stealing: 500,000* Illinois outright; 300,000* NC State outright; 200,000* UMASS, and 200,000* Kansas State! I am hotter than the Burning Bush and it's not just this one-day. My highest rated 500,000* improved to 44-22 all-time on Friday after the Illini won outright as the 8 point dog in literally wire-to-wire fashion. 8 of 11 winning days and a 16-7-1 overall run. Also a cool 2.475 million* of profit now over the last 16 days alone. That's short-term profit and long-term profit.
Two more winners today: 500,000* Duke-Miami plus a 300,000* Illinois-Ohio State. Click now to purchase

The 43-14-9 Sharks exploded for six third-period goals in an 8-5 win over Nashville in their last game on Thursday night. Joe Pavelski and Dany Heatley each scored twice for San Jose. The 27-29-10 Panthers were blanked 3-0 in Colorado in their Thursday night matchup, with Tomas Vokoun making 28 saves. Florida and San Jose have not met this season.
