"Things like this can happen at any time," Bargnani said.

 

Indiana, which beat Toronto earlier in the year, has won four of the last five meetings. The Pacers, though, have dropped eight of 10 in Toronto.

 

Watson is averaging 3.6 points and 4.3 assists for the Jazz this season, his 11th in the NBA.

 

John Lucas III started in his place on Wednesday and scored 25 points in Chicago's 78-64 win against Washington.

 

The Bulls, 10-2, own the best record in the Eastern Conference.

 

The eight-time NBA All Star is the league's 13th all-time leading scorer with 25,613 points.

 

A second-round selection by the Milwaukee Bucks in 1976, English is predominantly known for spending 11 of his 16 NBA seasons with the Denver Nuggets. He led the franchise to nine consecutive playoff appearances -- including a berth in the 1985 Western Conference Finals -- from 1982-1990.

 

Charlotte, NC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Jonas Jerebko had 22 points and nine rebounds Friday and the Pistons halted a six-game skid with a 98-81 win over the Bobcats. Greg Monroe, who had 32 points and 16 rebounds in Thursday's loss to the Bucks, finished with 19 and nine in this one. Ben Gordon chipped in 14 points, six rebounds and five assists, while Brandon Knight had 13 points and 10 boards.

 

Mullens, a second-year center out of Ohio State, has been a rare bright spot during Charlotte's gloomy stretch. He had a career-high 21 points in Thursday's loss to the Hawks.

 

Still, his production has done little to compensate for the Bobcats' defensive woes. They entered Friday allowing a league-worst 102.7 points per game and did little to thwart an offensively-challenged Detroit squad.

 

Game Notes

 

Toronto, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tyler Hansbrough's offensive rebound and ensuing free throws with 14.8 seconds left put Indiana on top for good as the Pacers took a 95-90 comeback victory over the Toronto Raptors. Hansbrough finished with 13 points and six rebounds to go along with George Hill's season-high 22 points in the Pacers' fourth win in five games.

 

DeMar DeRozan paced the Raptors with 23 points, while Leandro Barbosa dropped in 20 and Jose Calderon had 15 with nine assists as Toronto dropped its third straight game.

Big Ten Conference odds

Teams that should be in: Michigan State, Indiana
Work left to do: Illinois, Purdue, Michigan, Iowa

Behind the big two, the pecking order might be in a bit of flux. Has Michigan State passed Indiana after handling the Hoosiers in East Lansing? Where is Illinois in that mix? What looked like a four-big league last week could be morphing into five -- and even six is not unthinkable at this point if everything breaks right.

Should be in:

Michigan State [21-8 (8-6), RPI: 20, SOS: 15] The Spartans made it four-for-four on the homestand, a gigantic accomplishment that leaves them in extremely good shape. MSU is only 1-6 on the road and is at Michigan and at Wisconsin to close things out, meaning the date with the Wolverines on Tuesday looms very, very large. Beating Texas early will hold up well, as will the rout of Bradley and the win over BYU, but will 8-8 be enough? It very well could be, as the computer numbers are good, but why chance it?

Indiana [18-9 (8-6), RPI: 24, SOS: 32] Hmm ... good thing the last two are at Northwestern and home to Penn State, because IU might want to get both to feel completely safe after dropping its third in the last four, fading after halftime at Michigan State. Who knew the best nonconference win would be over Southern Illinois, which is a gift that keeps on giving for the Hoosiers. The win over Wisconsin also looks good on the mantel.

Work left to do:

Illinois [21-9 (9-6), RPI: 31, SOS: 25] A good performance at Penn State leaves the Illini in pretty good shape. Can they go to Iowa and take care of business to really look on their way? That's a huge game, as there is a possible cluster of teams that will end at 9-7. Illinois beat Bradley, but has lost to Xavier. A 9-7 mark and a semifinals trip in Chicago could be enough with the computer profile hanging in there, but it would be better not to mess around, clinching at least a tie for third.

Purdue [18-10 (7-7), RPI: 47, SOS: 28] Couldn't get it done at Iowa, but did win at Northwestern to put 9-7 squarely in sight. Where does that leave the Boilermakers, though? Even if they beat Minnesota and Northwestern at home, that won't help the computer numbers. Nonconference wins over Virginia, DePaul and Oklahoma are solid, but not spectacular. The Boilers very well might need an upset in the B10 quarters to have a legit claim.

Michigan [19-10 (7-7), RPI: 55, SOS: 53] Well, Michigan did what it needed to do, winning at Minnesota to take control of its fate. The Wolverines have Michigan State and an already-wrapped-up-the-league Ohio State at home to close, so the chances are there. Win both and we can talk. There is no marquee win yet in the profile, and the Wolverines were splattered in several games against name opponents. A mediocre computer profile fueled by a lack of road wins isn't helping, either.

Iowa [16-12 (8-6), RPI: 80, SOS: 64] For the sake of being complete, we'll add Iowa, this season's Stanford. It's plausible that the Hawkeyes could get to 10-6 (at Penn State, vs. Illinois left), but where does that leave them after a gruesome nonconference performance where the best win was over ... Toledo? Iowa State? Cornell?? If they get to 10-6, we can start to look at what they need to do in the B10 tourney, although my gut sense is that they would need to make the final and have knocked off Ohio State or Wisconsin on the way to have any real claim.
