Sorry for the delay...we had some technical difficulties...
I can tell these girls support Santa Clara from their Tan Lines!
SANTA CLARA BRONCOS (+7.5) @ GONZAGA (ZIG) ZAGS...ESPN2
Won’t it be nice if we’re all part of the end to the Zags 50 game home winning streak? For the first time in years, Gonzaga has not totally dominated (18-8) the regular season and doesn’t have a frontcourt that matches every big-time conf. in the land. To make matters worse, 6-11 Josh Heytvelt, the teams leading shot-blocker/rebounder and 2nd leading scorer was suspended indefinitely after he was stopped by police Friday doing his best Willie Nelson imitation (The evil weed and magic mushrooms were illegality found in the car he and a red-shirt freshmen teammate were in). As for Santa Clara, since losing to Zags in early January they’ve won 7 of 8, are tied for the conf. lead with Gonzaga, and are loaded with some frontcourt behemoths. In addition, legendary coach Dick Davey just announced he’ll be retiring at the end of the season and I just have a feeling they could actually pull this one off tonight. Oh yeah, and it’s a late night ESPN2 special so break out a fresh pack of Newports and a mix-up a fresh batch of Schnapps n’ Cream Soda…this is going to be fun…Santa Clara in a buzzer-beater
While it may be too late to tell you...I also liked West Virginia +9.5 at Georgetown and the Atlanta Hawks +8...sorry again for the delay
The Sun shines in Phoenix...
...but not when Nash and Diaw are out
CHICAGO BULLS (+7) @ PHOENIX SUNS
Andres Nocioni is out for the Bullies, but Nash is out and Diaw looks doubtful. Without those two the Suns highflying offense doesn't have a floor general...Bulls by 1-6 points
CHICAGO BULLS/PHOENIX SUNS (UNDER 207)
The Suns get lots of easy shots because of Nash n' Diaw...but not tonight. In addition, the Bulls don't want P.J. Brown, Sweetney, Malik Allen to run with Shawn and Amare...total points 196-202
