Nets add G Farmar

Basketball Betting Lines

07/11/2010 - East Rutherford, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New Jersey Nets have agreed in principle to a contract with free agent guard Jordan Farmar.

Per team policy, terms of the agreement were not released, but the Newark Star-Ledger reports the pact is for three years and $12 million. It hinges on Farmar passing a physical.

"Jordan will be an excellent complement to Devin (Harris) in the backcourt," said Nets president Rod Thorn. "He comes to the Nets with championship pedigree, which will prove to be invaluable to his teammates."

Farmar was a member of the Lakers' back-to-back NBA championship teams the past two seasons as a valuable contributor off the bench.

In 82 regular-season games last season, Farmar averaged 7.2 points, 1.6 rebounds and 1.5 assists over 18 minutes per contest. The 23-year-old shot 37.6 percent from beyond the arc, hitting 86 three-pointers.

Farmar added 4.6 points per game and 20 total threes during LA's 23-game march to its second straight title. The UCLA product has career per game averages of 6.9 points, 2.1 assists and 1.8 boards while shooting 35.9 percent on threes over his four-year pro tenure. He's made two starts in 301 career games.

Academy Award Betting Odds for Best Picture Offer Great Value

If there is any category that is not an obvious win for any one nominee in this year's Academy Awards, it would be for Best Picture.  Sure the Departed is a 5/7 favorite, but that's hardly anything when we look at Helen Mirren and her "out-of-reach" 1 to 40 odds (which means you would win a whopping $1 for every $40 bet).

For value, take a look at MySportsbook.com Oscars betting odds on my personal favorite, The Queen - a remarkable 12 to 1 long shot.  The film hasn't won any pre-awards for Best Picture (compared to The Departed and Little Miss Sunshine), but there is a tremendous following and it is a strong enough film to warrant a surprise win.

TV Guide advises Oscar watchers should be cautioned not to discount the  drama "Babel" with its strong social themes about overcoming communication gaps among people of different cultures.

"While 'Babel' lost several guild awards to 'Sunshine' and 'Departed,'  it still enjoys loyal support, and historically Oscar voters favor dramas with social messages over comedies like 'Sunshine' and violent crime movies like 'Departed'."

"It hasn't done well in the guilds, which means there isn't much industry support," said Tom O'Neil of awards site TheEnvelope.com, "But several critics are expecting it to win, and that gets my attention." Babel had 7 to 2 odds at press time.

Who is to say independently produced Little Miss Sunshine won't be this year's Crash.  Last year, Crash won for Best Motion Picture, shocking those who bet on gay cowboy flick, Brokeback Mountain, as the favorite to win.
