Each morning we’ll recap all the betting insanity from yesterday! Check out the bad beats, the close results, and notable upsets<\/strong> from the day before. We’ll walk you through the good, the bad, and the downright profitable from yesterday before sharing a free NCAAB pick on Monday’s college basketball slate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Be prepared for any water cooler chat or text chain conversation as we get you up-to-speed on everything that you may have missed from the sports betting world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Love what you see from GoldSheet? The GoldSheet team has just introduced a new product called GoldSheet Lite to help you handicap the NBA and NCAAB slate each day.

The East won 211-186, going over the total by 44 points. If you need any commentary on the state of the current NBA All-Star Game, there’s plenty of it out there on Monday morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you enjoy watching defense played at a very high level, this will likely be one of the best college basketball games of the regular season. Last night’s NBA All-Stars should probably tune in. Houston enters this contest No. 1 in the country in defensive efficiency, No. 1 in effective field goal defense, No. 4 in forcing turnovers, No. 8 in three-point shooting allowed (28.8-percent) and No. 5 in two-point shooting allowed (43.2-percent). Iowa State enters this contest No. 3 in the country in defensive efficiency and No. 1 in forcing turnovers while allowing opponents to shoot just 46.2-percent from two-point range (over four percent below the national average).<\/p>\n\n\n\n This game is going to be played at a very high level where every possession will matter. Here’s the catch: These teams play nearly-identical styles on defense. We’ve got two of the country\u2019s most aggressive ball screen coverage defenses sharing the court tonight. Guess what these offenses have been practicing against for the last five months? You probably won’t find two offenses that are better-prepared to essentially look in the mirror on Monday night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Eight of Iowa State’s last nine games would have cleared this total in the upper-120s. Six of Houston’s last seven games would have cleared this total. The first meeting between these squads in January only saw 110 points, but these coaching staffs know how to make the necessary adjustments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Daytona 500<\/a> was moved from Sunday to Monday afternoon at 4:30pm ET \/ 1:30pm PT because of rain in northern Florida. Interested in placing a wager on the race? We’ve got you covered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n WagerTalk\u2019s live odds screen<\/a> features up-to-the-minute lines from a variety of offshore and domestic sports books.
