Las Vegas - C'mon with me for a quick afternoon trip to Portugal where we like Benfica over Club Brugge in the UEFA Champions League match. Love the way the Eagles from Lisbon are playing at the moment. They are crushing the Portuguese Primeira Liga with 62 points and a STUNNING PLUS 45 goal differential. They've scored 58 and allowed only 13. And, and, AND, they've outscored their opponents 21-2, yes, TWENTY ONE to TWO, over the last nine games.

These two get together on the same court again tonight, and we're thinking OKC. Not only did Utah lose by 27 points, they'll be without their best player, Lauri Elias Markkanen. Yea, I threw in the middle name just because.

The Gaels have also covered nine of those 10 and clinched a 1st round bye in the MAAC tourney. And they haven't just been winning, they've been CRUSHING, winning by an average of almost 18 points per game. This is also a revenge game for Iona since Rider came to their house, the Hynes Athletic Center, and squeezed out a 70-67 win.
