NBA notebook: Skiles resigns as Magic coach
By The Sports Xchange

Scott Skiles gave the NBA coaching carousel an unexpected spin Thursday, abruptly resigning as head coach of the Orlando Magic.
"After much thought and careful consideration, I and I alone, have come to the conclusion that I am not the right head coach for this team," said Skiles in a statement issued by the Magic, "Therefore, effective immediately, I resign my position as head coach of the Orlando Magic.
"I realize this type of decision can cause much speculation. The reality though is in the first sentence. It is simple and true. Any other rumors are pure conjecture. I sincerely apologize for any unintended consequences that may adversely affect anyone associated with this decision."
General manager Rob Hennigan hired Skiles in May 2015 after previous stints with the Phoenix Suns, Chicago Bulls and Milwaukee Bucks. Orlando finished fifth in the Southeast Conference with a 35-47 record.
ESPN reported the resignation was borne of a meeting with management and Skiles' power over personnel created friction. Skiles played for the Magic and ownership gave him permission to trade Tobias Harris to Detroit and Channing Frye to Cleveland for two players he coached in Milwaukee.

--The Miami Heat have declared forward Luol Deng as questionable for Game 6 of the Eastern Conference semifinals after an MRI exam revealed a bruised left wrist.
Deng was injured in Wednesday's 99-91 loss to the Toronto Raptors. He remains hopeful of playing in the pivotal Game 6 on Friday after the MRI ruled out a fracture. Toronto leads the series 3-2.
Miami center Hassan Whiteside remains unlikely to play after missing the last two games due to a sprained MCL in his right knee.

--Toronto Raptors forward DeMarre Carroll is day-to-day with a left wrist contusion.
Carroll landed hard on his wrist in the final minutes of the third quarter of Wednesday's Game 5 win over the Miami Heat. As he rolled to his back, Carroll immediately clutched his left wrist in pain and was tended to on the court by trainers.
Toronto will list him as questionable for Game 6 at Miami on Friday and treat him "symptomatically" leading up to the game.
Toronto lost center Jonas Valanciunas earlier in the series with an ankle injury.

Re: NBA Betting Info. 5/13

Perfect Cavs see 2-to-1 title odds
By Tony Mejia

“Fo-fo-fo-fo” isn’t a giant’s cry. Well, actually that’s not true at all. It’s quite literally what it is, but didn’t come from anyone green or fictional.

“Fo-fo-fo” was how Moses Malone boastfully proclaimed his 76ers would get through the 1983 postseason. He was off by a game, as Philadelphia ended up going 12-1, dropping a game against Milwaukee in the Eastern Conference finals prior to sweeping the Lakers for the title. Winning 92 percent of their games trumps the 1988-89 Pistons for top winning percentage in NBA playoff history, a number that can only be bested by going perfect of suffering a single loss since 16 wins are now required to win a championship.

Although the NBA’s revamped playoff system has added another “fo” to the mix, Malone’s the sentiment remains the same. Sweep every series. Brooms to rings. The Cleveland Cavaliers are halfway there.

There were times when things looked dicey against Detroit, but for the most part, the Cavs dominated the No. 8 seed. They made plays down the stretch to beat Stan Van Gundy. They covered only two of the four games, but still got out of Auburn Hills with a 100-98 Game 4 win that ensured a lesser work load. Then they got to work on Atlanta, a team that had reached the conference finals against them last season, and produced the most surprising result of this year’s postseason.

Portland landing in the Western Conference semis and playing competitive ball against the defending champs was definitely unexpected, but it has benefited from the Clippers losing Chris Paul and Blake Griffin and the Warriors toiling without Stephen Curry. What the Cavs did to the Hawks, a well-coached team loaded with veterans, was more of a shocker. How they did it, setting a four-game record for 3-pointers made in a series, was the real eye-opener.

After looking like the team we’ve seen all season against the Pistons, winning by a combined margin of 103.5-94.8, the Cavs averaged 112 points in the four-game sweep of Atlanta, twice eclipsing 120 points. Cleveland put up 152 3-pointers, connecting on 77 (50.7 pct) in shattering the previous high for makes from beyond the arc in a four-game series (57), falling just short of tying the 79 makes that the Hawks managed in a 2014 first-round series against the Pacers. If the Hawks had managed to extend Game 4 to OT, the Cavs might have shattered a record that took seven games to set in a span of four. Cleveland made 15 or more 3-pointers in every contest, becoming the first team in NBA history to knock down that many in four consecutive games, encompassing both playoffs or regular season. They memorably sunk 25 3-pointers in Game 2, shattering Golden State’s single-game record.

Honestly, it looked like a fluke, except for how the meaning of that word belies the consistency Cleveland displayed. They shot the ball with impunity. The ball was moved around the perimeter quickly and decisively, usually resulting in an open look for a capable shooter who was successful over half the time.

If not a fluke, a hot stretch? Sizzling, even. Well, maybe, which is why it’s going to be so interesting to see who gets out of the other Eastern Conference semifinal and how much more time the Cavs will get to work on themselves in the lab without pressure. Toronto lost center Jonas Valanciunas for the rest of the postseason due to an ankle issue. Miami is listing Hassan Whiteside as day-to-day with an MCL injury, but he likely won’t be 100 percent the rest of the way and may not make it back at all.

The top candidates on each roster to defend LeBron each got hurt in Game 5. Raptors small forward DeMarre Carroll was sidelined by a left wrist contusion and got good news on his MRI but remains day-to-day. Heat forward Luol Deng was still awaiting word on his wrist after initial results proved inconclusive after he hurt himself trying to brace his fall following a collision with a camera man. Toronto All-Star DeMar DeRozan isn’t 100 percent either, dealing with a nagging thumb injury.

Regardless of who ultimately comes out of the series to reach the Eastern Conference finals, Cleveland will be heavily favored. Still, there’s a legitimate argument to be made that Miami would be a far more challenging opponent.

The Heat rank in the Top 10 in 3-point percentage defense, while the Raptors ranked next-to-last, surrendering 37.4 percent shooting from beyond the arc. Considering the fan base in Miami would bring something extra to the table against LeBron James and the Heat’s battle-tested veterans are best-equipped to play mind games with the younger Cavaliers, there is little doubt that the Eastern Conference favorite would prefer a trip north of the border as opposed to heading south, since that would likely improve their chances of getting through the third leg of “fo-fo-fo-fo” unscathed.

As things stood on Thursday, Cleveland was at -800 (1-to-8) to win the Eastern Conference, a number that has held all week. After going up 3-2, the Raptors went from +750 (7.5-to-1) to +650 (6.5-to-1) and the Heat went from +1500 (15-to-1) to +2500 (25-to-1). Cleveland has hung second in the pecking order of NBA favorites, coming in at +200 (2-to-1), just behind Golden State, who is now at -170 (1-to-1.7) after opening the week -125 (1-to-1.25). San Antonio and OKC were both at +1000 (10-to-1) entering their Game 6 showdown.

If you want a horse in the race, it’s certainly worth backing a rested Cavs squad to take down the survivor of the Western Conference wars since Cleveland seems like a lock to get there, but the verdict remains out as to whether they can continue playing this way when the caliber of competition increases.

The Cavs’ championship hopes would probably be best-served if they were tested in the Eastern Conference finals and “fo-fo-fo-fo” was an impossibility, but it remains to be seen how large a part confidence plays in their continued transformation. This trigger-happy Cleveland squad is letting it fly with reckless abandon, asking questions later. The Cavaliers could wind up a victim of the “live by the three, die by the three” cliché, but seem to be following in the footsteps of the team that beat them last year, hoping the presence of Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love ultimately make the difference in a rematch.

We’ll see how they handle adversity since they haven’t faced any yet. Of course, getting by any setbacks at all is obviously the way to go, as the legendary Malone once suggested.

NBA playoffs betting preview and odds: Raptors at Heat

Toronto Raptors at Miami Heat (-4, 190)

Raptors lead series 3-2

When Kyle Lowry and DeMar DeRozan play well in the same game, the Toronto Raptors are very hard to beat. The Raptors will try to get two straight strong games out of their All-Star backcourt and close out the Eastern Conference semifinal series when they visit the Miami Heat in Game 6 on Friday.

Lowry and DeRozan combined for 19 points on 6-of-28 shooting in a Game 4 loss but pushed those numbers to 59 points on 20-of-47 in Game 5 as Toronto earned a 99-91 win in front of its home fans and grabbed a 3-2 lead in the best-of-seven series. “Our team feeds off our energy,” Lowry told reporters of he and DeRozan. “Everything we do, they look at and they want to be a part of it. For us, it’s just about continuing to be aggressive.” The Heat are in the unenviable position of having to overcome a 3-2 deficit for the second straight series, and this time they might be doing it without a pair of starters. Hassan Whiteside (sprained knee) is likely out for Game 6 while forward Luol Deng will undergo an MRI exam on a wrist injury that knocked him out in the third quarter of Game 5.

TV: 8 p.m. ET, ESPN

LINE HISTORY: The Heat opened as 4.5-point favorites on home court and the line was dropped slightly to -4 by Thursday morning. The total opened at 190 and hasn't moved off that number at most books.

ABOUT THE RAPTORS (63-31, 49-45 ATS, 45-48-1 O/U): Toronto is dealing with just as many injuries as Miami with starting center Jonas Valanciunas (ankle) lost for the series, DeMarre Carroll dealing with a wrist contusion that knocked him out of Game 5 and DeRozan in constant pain from a thumb injury. DeRozan went 11-of-22 from the field and 11-of-11 from the free-throw line on Wednesday despite having to tie a shoelace around his thumb during stoppages to keep down the swelling. “There’s nothing else I can do about it but just try and play through it the best way I can and just deal with it later,” DeRozan, who aggravated the injury in the fourth quarter on Wednesday and briefly retreated to the locker room, told reporters.

ABOUT THE HEAT (54-40, 50-43-1 ATS, 38-55-1 O/U): Deng was 0-of-8 from the floor in Game 5 before exiting and is averaging 7.8 points on 35.9 percent shooting series, and rookies Justise Winslow and Josh Richardson figure to see even more minutes in Game 6 if Deng is unable to go. “We just have to stay poised and other guys have to be ready to step up," guard Joe Johnson told reporters. "That's how it has to be right now. It's tough, but we have to play through it. There is no time to feel sorry for ourselves. If one man goes down, another man has to be ready." Miami could use more from Johnson as well, with the veteran shooting 37.2 percent in the series while knocking down 1-of-17 from 3-point range.

TRENDS:

* Raptors are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up win.
* Heat are 10-2 ATS in their last 12 home games.
* Under is 8-0 in Raptors last 8 road games.
* Under is 8-2 in Heat last 10 overall.

CONSENSUS: The public is split almost down the middle for this huge Game 6, with 52 percent of wagers on the underdog Raptors. Wagers on the total are also split with 51 percent picking the Under.

Re: NBA Betting Info. 5/13

Game 6 - Raptors at Heat
By Brian Edwards

Toronto (63-31 straight up, 49-45 against the spread) took a 3-2 series advantage with Wednesday’s Game 5 win to set up Friday’s close-out game at Miami in the Eastern Conference semifinals. The Raptors captured a 99-91 victory as five-point home favorites, pulling away in the final 1:32 with an 11-4 run.

Dwane Casey’s club led by as many as 20 late in the second quarter, but Miami went on a 10-0 run in the final 3:08 of the first half to pull to within 55-45 at intermission. Nevertheless, Toronto easily hooked up its betting supporters for first-quarter (-1.5) and first-half wagers (-2.5). The 100 combined points jumped ‘over’ the 94.5-point first-half total.

Miami (54-40 SU, 50-43-1 ATS) trailed by 15 when Terrence Ross made a driving layup to start the fourth quarter, but it quickly responded with a 7-0 run behind a pair of buckets from Joe Johnson and a 3-ball from rookie Josh Richardson out of the University of Tennessee.

Toronto’s lead ballooned to 13 on a 3-point play the hard way by DeMar DeRozan with 8:33 remaining. However, Richardson answered with back-to-back triples to put Miami back within striking distance. Down seven with 3:02 left, the Heat went on a 6-0 run thanks to consecutive baskets from Johnson and a pair of free throws from Dwyane Wade with 1:54 remaining.

DeRozan hit two free throws to push the lead back to three and then Miami’s Goran Dragic committed a costly turnover. For most of the playoffs, especially at crunch time, Toronto has had way-too-many possessions in which it fails to get any movement on offense and is left to force a low-percentage shot just before the shot-clock buzzer.

On Wednesday night, though, Kyle Lowry made things happen late in the shot clock. With a 90-87 advantage at the 52-second mark, the Villanova product drained an audacious stepback 3-pointer that inserted the dagger into the Heat’s Game 5 comeback hopes.

At this point, the outright victory was nearly sealed, but nothing was settled whatsoever in terms of the spread cover and the total. Ahead of the number by merely one point, Toronto allowed Wade to get a quick basket to make it 93-89 with 46 ticks left. But again, Lowry turned what appeared to be an ugly possession into gold when he penetrated late in the shot clock and buried a fadeaway jumper from the baseline.

After a timeout gave Miami the ball at halfcourt, Wade needed only two seconds to make a layup to cut the deficit to 95-91 with 21 seconds remaining. The Heat had to foul right away and DeRozan hit a pair of free throws to get the Raptors back ahead of the spread by one point. Also, the total, which closed at 189 at many books, was still on the line with the combined score at 188.

Wade missed a 3-pointer and Miami fouled again with nine seconds left. With gamblers on the total cringing over the result of the looming free throws, DeRozan knocked down both attempts from the stripe to make the ‘over’ a winner.

Game 2 also went ‘over’ the tally, but only because of overtime. Though Game 5 was at a rate to go ‘over’ for most of the night, the 177 combined points with 52 seconds remaining had ‘under’ supporters liking their chances. In other words, the ‘under’ could easily be 5-0 in the series so far. Instead, it’s just 3-2.

For Friday’s Game 5 at American Airlines Arena, the Westgate SuperBook in Las Vegas opened Miami as a 4.5-point home ‘chalk’ with a total of 190.5 points. By Thursday night, however, the Heat were favored by four points and the total was adjusted to 189.5. Miami was -180 on the money line, leaving the Raptors at +160 on the comeback (risk $100 to win $160). The Heat was favored by 2.5 points for first-half wagers.

Chris David offered these thoughts on Game 5: “From a betting perspective, every game in this series has been a toss-up and there hasn’t been any wire-to-wire outcomes. I believe bettors are going to be in for another long night on Friday and you could argue for both sides and totals in Game 6. While Miami is banged up, I haven’t seen enough from Toronto to make a case for them to close out this series on the road. Since the Raptors came back into the playoff scene a couple of years ago, the team has built 3-2 leads twice and they failed to close out those series on the road. Toronto lost to Brooklyn in 2014 and in this year’s first round to Indiana and both losses were by double digits.”

David continued, “Looking at this year’s postseason, favorites have gone 49-13 straight up and they’ve covered 77 percent (38-24 ATS) of those games. Miami has helped that record, going 4-2 as a favorite in this year’s postseason but the kicker is that the Heat have covered all four of its victories. Instead of betting the Game 6 side or total on Friday, I would suggest taking Miami on the adjusted series price. The Heat are listed as high as a 3/1 underdog to win the next two games and if they can force a Game 7, then you can always get out of your bet with a hedge on Toronto.”

Both teams sustained key injuries in Game 5. Miami’s Luol Deng and Toronto’s DeMarre Carroll suffered wrist injuries, but MRI results for both players came back negative. They have both been upgraded to ‘probable,’ but whether either player will be effective is a major question mark.

Both teams are already missing their starting centers. Toronto’s Jonas Valanciunas had recorded four straight double-doubles before spraining his ankle in Game 3. He is out for the rest of the series. Miami’s Hassan Whiteside, who led the NBA with 3.7 blocked shots per game during the regular season, is ‘out’ for Game 6 with a knee injury. His status for a potential Game 7 back in Toronto remains in doubt.

Miami is 32-15 SU and 27-19 ATS at home, going 10-2 both SU and ATS in its last 12 at the Triple-A.

Toronto has posted a 25-20 SU record and a 24-21 ATS mark on the road this season. The Raptors are 2-3 both SU and ATS in five postseason road assignments so far.

The ‘under’ is on a 10-3 run in Toronto’s last 13 games. The Raptors have watched the ‘under’ go 48-45-1 overall, 26-19-1 in their road contests. They have seen the ‘under’ cash in eight consecutive road games.

The ‘under’ has cashed at an 8-2 clip in Miami’s last 10 outings. The Heat has seen the ‘under’ go 55-38-1 overall, 28-19 in its home contests.

Tip-off is scheduled for Friday night at 8:05 p.m. Eastern on ESPN.

Preview: Raptors (56-26) at Heat (48-34)

Date: May 13, 2016 8:00 PM EDT

MIAMI (AP) The centers are hobbled and sidelined. The starting point guards have seen their faces bloodied. Both teams have key forwards dealing with wrist injuries, and Toronto's leading scorer needs his super-tender thumb wrapped in something resembling a shoelace so he can play.

Someone will win this Toronto-Miami series.

Or more accurately, someone will survive this series.

The Raptors are leading 3-2 and therefore have two chances to be the ones who emerge, the first coming in Game 6 at Miami on Friday night. The Raptors know they're playing Sunday afternoon - either in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals in Cleveland, or back in Toronto for Game 7 of this East semifinal matchup.

'It's a seven-game series and these kind of series are very competitive,' Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said Thursday. 'They're built to push you and stress you and put you in uncomfortable situations. And that's what this series is doing right now. It's a competitive series. Guys are embracing the competition. And we have a job to do tomorrow. We're just focused on tomorrow.'

Both teams got good news Thursday.

Tests performed on the injured wrists of Toronto's DeMarre Carroll and Miami's Luol Deng showed they were just dealing with bruises after getting hurt in the Raptors' Game 5 win on Wednesday night. Officially, Carroll and Deng are listed as questionable, but the expectation is that both will be available to go in Game 6.

'If it ain't broke, with me, I'm ready to play,' Carroll said.

Said Deng: 'I've had worse injuries than this.'

Miami center Hassan Whiteside (knee) and Toronto center Jonas Valanciunas (ankle) are both expected to miss their third consecutive games. DeMar DeRozan's right thumb - the one wrapped in a shoelace - is still painful, yet he and backcourt mate Kyle Lowry were still able to lead the Raptors to a win in Game 5.

'Right now there's nobody healthy in this league, totally healthy,' Toronto coach Dwane Casey said. 'There's something that's hurting on somebody. Kyle Lowry looks like a boxer, got cuts on both eyelids. This is the time you play through it. This is what you work in the summer for. This is what you prepare your professional career for - playoff time.'

Lowry has shed blood in this series, as has his point guard counterpart, Miami's Goran Dragic.

No one seems to mind the physicality. Lowry said it's just a byproduct of two teams fighting for their seasons.

'Everything's just been basketball,' Lowry said. 'It's been physical. It's just a fun game and it's that time of the year.'

A look at Friday's lone NBA game:

Raptors at Heat, Toronto leads 3-2. 8 p.m., ESPN.

This is already the longest postseason in Raptors' history, with Friday marking their 13th game of these playoffs. Toronto's previous mark was 12 playoff games in 2001.

Of course, the Raptors hope they're just getting started.

Their bags are already packed for Cleveland. That's not disrespect toward Miami, just smart planning considering the potentially very tight turnaround if the Raptors win on Friday. But history suggests it won't be easy - the Raptors are 1-4 all-time in road closeout chances, and only two East teams have won two games at Miami in the same series since Dwyane Wade was drafted in 2003.

'They are well-coached, they play really hard and they've got Dwyane Wade,' Lowry said. 'He's playing at a level that he's pretty much played at his whole career.'

Wade has been Miami's best player in the series, and he'll likely need to stay that way. He's avoided knockout blows plenty of times before - the Heat are 7-1 in their last eight games when facing elimination, including 2-0 this season.

'Our guys love this,' Spoelstra said. 'Our guys love this kind of competition.'

Miami got down by 20 in Wednesday's Game 5 loss, cut the deficit down to one but never got all the way over the hump. The Heat haven't scored more than 94 points in regulation yet game in this series, Joe Johnson is 1 for 17 from 3-point range and Miami is facing elimination even though Lowry and DeRozan are both shooting under 40 percent from the field.

And if the Heat are to get a chance to match up with former Miami star LeBron James in the East finals, they need to defy the odds. Teams that lose Game 5 of a tied best-of-seven go on to ultimately lose the series 82 percent of the time.

'Whatever it takes,' Spoelstra said. 'We have enough.'
