LA aims to clip visiting Sonics

Basketball Betting Lines

02/28/2007 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Los Angeles Clippers try to make it three wins in a row, as they welcome the Seattle SuperSonics tonight to the Staples Center.

This is the first of a home-and-home set between the clubs. The SuperSonics will host the Clippers on Thursday at KeyArena.

LA plays the finale of a five-game homestand. It is 2-2 on the stand. Corey Maggette ended with 25 points, as the Clippers topped the Charlotte Bobcats, 100-93, at the Staples Center in a game marred by an ugly knee injury to Los Angeles guard Shaun Livingston.

Livingston completely dislocated his left knee while driving for a layup with 8:10 left in the opening quarter. He landed awkwardly on his left knee, which bent backwards with the kneecap protruding to the side. Livingston, who is averaging 9.3 points and 5.1 assists per game, remained on the floor for a few minutes before being put on a stretcher and wheeled off the court. He is expected to miss the remainder of the season.

Veteran Sam Cassell finished with 14 points in the win over Charlotte for the Clippers, while Tim Thomas netted 12 in the victory.

The Clippers are 19-10 as the host this season.

Seattle attempts to win back-to-back games. Rashard Lewis scored 29 points and grabbed seven rebounds as the SuperSonics routed the Portland Trail Blazers, 97-73, at KeyArena.

All-Star Ray Allen added 16 points, 10 rebounds and six assists in the win over the Trail Blazers for Seattle, which snapped a two-game losing streak. Chris Wilcox and Damien Wilkins scored 10 apiece for the SuperSonics, who won their third straight home game.

The SuperSonics are just 6-21 on the road this season. They have dropped two in a row as the visitor.

This is the third meeting of the campaign between the squads. The teams split the first two contests.

Seattle has won two straight after losing its last three at the Clippers.

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL lines


Now that the 2008 NFL schedule is finally out, it is only matter-of-course for lines on “Week 1” to follow.  Of course MySportsbook.com is the first to churn out odds for the NFL’s inaugural week for the upcoming season.   Expect a lot of fireworks the first Thursday night of the season as the defending champion Indianapolis Colts face off against the surprise of the 2008 season, the New Orleans Saints.  These teams were ranked #1 and #3 in the NFL respectively a season ago so a high scoring affair could be in order.  As of now, the Colts will be giving 6 points to the Saints; keep in mind the Saints were one of the better road teams last season going 6-3 SU and 7-2 ATS.  The first Monday night of the season will again provide a “double feature”. Coming off a disappointing season, the Cincinnati Bengals will look to get back to playoffs and improve their public image as they take on the AFC North favorite Baltimore Ravens.  The second game features a couple of teams that haven’t had too much success recently but each could make some noise if the NFC is as weak as it was last year as the San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals. The most interesting game of the opening week will feature the NFC champion Bears as they hit the road to take on the NFL’s top team during last year’s regular season, the San Diego Chargers.

MySportsbook.com Week 1 odds:

Saints +6 @ Colts -6

Falcons @ Vikings (pick ‘em)

Panthers @ Rams (pick ‘em)

Broncos -3.5 @ Bills +3.5

Chiefs -1 @ Texans +1

Dolphins +3 @ Redskins -3

Patriots -5 @ Jets +5

Eagles -3.5 @ Packers +3.5

Steelers -4 @ Browns +4

Titans +6 @ Jaguars -6

Bears +6 @ Chargers -6

Super Bowl XLIII Betting - Super Bowl 2009

Super Bowl 2009, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds and the betting line and figure out where they’ve been and where they are going to go.

MySportsbook.com put up the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds late on Sunday night with the Pittsburgh Steelers favored by 6.5 points and a total betting line at 47.5 points.

Since then, however, the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds have seen a good deal of movement and you’ll want to be on top of where they are likely to move to make sure you get the best line value for the big game.

Since opening, the Super Bowl 2009 betting lines went to Steelers -7 in the span of roughly 3 hours but were quickly bought back down just minutes later to 6.5 again.

After that is took about 5-6 more hours before the betting line went back to -7 where it has sat for a while now and is likely to remain. The opening betting total of 47.5 was bet down right after the line became available and went to 47 within minutes.

Roughly a day later it has been bet even further down to the 46.5 tally it currently is set at.

Roughly 60% of gamblers seem to be on the Cardinals here so the point spread will be bet down and a 7.5 would not last very long at all with many taking the early 6.5 in hopes of finding a potential middle in the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds.

If you like Arizona and see a 7.5, I’d take it as soon as possible because it’s unlikely to last. For Pittsburgh backers, the -7 might be the best you’ll be able to find but a 6.5 is definitely possible close to game time.

Regarding the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds for the total, most tracked gamblers are already on the over and with those who took the under 47.5 already securing a middle on the over 46.5, the only way I see it moving is back up to 47 so if you like the over, I’d recommend betting now.
