Larry Ness' Non-Conf. GOW! NBA
At 10:30 ET my Non-Conference Game Of The Week is on the Golden State Warriors.

The Bobcats will resume their six-game Western road trip tonight against the Golden State Warriors at ORACLE Arena. Charlotte dropped the opener of the trek in Denver before rebounding with Tuesday's 114-109 overtime victory against the Phoenix Suns. Stephen Jackson had 30 points and nine rebounds while Boris Diaw added 24 points and 11 boards for the Bobcats, who halted a three-game slide and improved to 4-17 away from home this season. That being said, I expect a letdown from this team tonight (note: Charlotte is just 2-4 ATS its last six overall; 4-21 SU its last 25 on the road). The Warriors will look to put the brakes on a three-game slide tonight; they are coming off Wednesday's 123-110 setback versus the New Orleans Hornets, in which C.J. Watson netted a season- high 23 points on 9-of-14 shooting and Monta Ellis returned from a two-game absence because of an ankle injury to post 19 points, nine assists and six rebounds for Golden State. Stephen Curry had 15 points and eight assists in a losing effort. Charlotte and Golden State split a pair of meetings last season. The Warriors have won six of their 10 lifetime matchups with the Bobcats (Golden State is 5-1 ATS its last six overall/7-3 ATS its last 10 at Oracle Arena). Expect the Warriors to improve to 4-1 ATS as a home dog of three points or less.

Good luck...Larry.

Larry Ness' Conf. GAME OF THE YEAR! CBB
At 7:00 ET my MAAC Game Of The Year is on Canisius.

For the last seven years the renewal of the rivalry between Canisius and Niagara has been, like basic math, an exercise in repetition; of the last 13 times the schools have met, Niagara has won 12. However, these teams come into this game moving in opposite directions; injuries, erratic shooting and porous interior defense have Niagara (11-11, 4-6) struggling since the calendar turned to 2010. It's been a jarring experience for a team that won 26 games last year and now features four senior starters: Tyrone Lewis, Bilal Benn, Rob Garrison and Demetrius "Meech" Williamson. Only Lewis has been with the Purple Eagles the whole four years (note: Niagara is both 1-5 ATS/SU its last six overall/also just 2-4 ATS its last six on the road). A maturing cast has moved Canisius, as expected, into the upper half of the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference at 10-11, 5-5. Tough defense and aggressive rebounding form the basis for its ascent. Led by senior guard Frank Turner, who is tied with Lewis for the MAAC scoring lead, the Golden Griffins are 4-4 since January, but have played well in losing efforts at Siena and Fairfield (note: Canisius is in fact 6-1 ATS its last seven overall/7-3 ATS its last ten vs. conference opponents). “This is probably one of the biggest games of the season,” said Julius Coles, the Griffs’ second-leading scorer. “During the offseason, we go up there and play against those guys. We know them well. And obviously we have a lot of history.” The Golden Griffins are playing all around better ball and will be looking to exact some revenge; this line is way off; play on CANISIUS.

Good luck...Larry.

Larry Ness' Las Vegas Insider! - NBA
At 8:00 ET my Las Vegas Insider is on the New Orleans Hornets.

This is the final game of a seven-game road-trip for the Bulls. They opened with a pair of losses to Western Conference also-rans, but then rattled off four straight victories; Coach Vinny Del Negro's team has shot 50.6 percent from the floor while holding opponents to 39.4 percent, and its most impressive defensive effort came Wednesday in Oklahoma City. Chicago limited the Thunder to 36.9 percent shooting, hounding Kevin Durant into a 7-for-19 effort and leaving with a 96-86 win (note: despite the recent turnaround in play, Chicago is in fact just 8-17 SU its last 25 on the road). The Bulls will have to battle more than fatigue though, as they face a Hornets team with "revenge" on their minds; Joakim Noah and Tyrus Thomas keyed a 96-85 win over New Orleans on Dec. 26 at the United Center. Noah had 17 points, 18 rebounds and four blocks, while Thomas had 21 points and nine boards off the bench. New Orleans returns to their home floor after a successful road-trip and I expect it to build off of that; New Orleans closed with a third victory in four games - its only loss coming in overtime to Denver on Saturday - after Chris Paul had 38 points in a 123-110 win over Golden State on Wednesday. "This was a big trip for us. We won in some tough venues," said Paul, who averaged 27.8 points on 58.8 percent shooting. "Everyone knows the road has been our Achilles' heel so far." Rookie Marcus Thornton averaged 18.5 points in the final two games of the trip, starting after New Orleans shipped Devin Brown to the Bulls for backup center Aaron Gray on Monday (not only is New Orleans 4-1 SU its last five, its also 8-1 SU its last nine at home). Expect Chicago to suffer a letdown at the end of this long road trip; lay the points.

Good luck...Larry.
