Cavs welcome Kings to the "Q"
Basketball Betting Lines
03/28/2010 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Cleveland Cavaliers continue their march toward the
postseason Sunday when the open up a three-game homestand against the lottery-
bound Sacramento Kings.
The Cavs, who have the NBA's best record and lead the Eastern Conference by
six games over Orlando with nine games to play, just finished up a two-game
road trip in losing fashion on Friday in San Antonio when Manu Ginobili scored
half of his 30 points in the fourth quarter, rallying the Spurs past
Cleveland, 102-97, and snapping the Cavaliers' eight-game winning streak.
LeBron James tallied 27 points and 10 assists for the Central Division champs,
who lost for just the second time in their last 16 contests overall. Antawn
Jamison scored 24 with nine rebounds and J.J. Hickson added 20 points in
defeat.
"They executed great," James said. "We may have had one or two blown
coverages, but most of the time we played our defensive principles and either
Manu made a play for himself or made a play for someone else with an open
look. When they shoot the ball well, they're very tough to beat because we
already know they're going to play defense."
The Cavs magic number to clinch the top seed in the East is four.
The Kings, meanwhile, fell to 0-2 on a five-game road trip in Boston on Friday
when Paul Pierce finished with 22 points and eight rebounds, as the Celtics
took a 94-86 win over the Sacramento Kings on a night they wrapped up the
Atlantic Division title.
Carl Landry had a game-high 30 points to pace the Kings, who played their
fourth straight game without rookie star Tyreke Evans (concussion). Beno Udrih
added 16 points and 12 assists in the loss, Sacramento's third in a row
overall.
"It was two different games for us," said Kings head coach Paul Westphal. "I
thought the second half we really got it going. We played the way we think
we're supposed to play and we made it interesting. We couldn't come all the
way back because the first half was too much of a hole, but I liked what I saw
the second half."
Evans, who leads all rookies in scoring at 20.3 points per game, will remain
on the sidelines this afternoon. Center Spencer Hawes, who left Friday's
loss at Boston with a lower back strain in the third quarter, is questionable.
The Cavs have won seven straight over Sacramento and will be aiming to sweep
the home-and-home series between the two clubs for a fourth straight season.

Stanley Cup betting
New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.
The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.
MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.
Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
