Basketball Betting Lines
07/12/2010 -
Miami, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Udonis Haslem has opted to stay in Miami, and the
Heat are reportedly in contract talks with sharpshooter Mike Miller.
Haslem was an unrestricted free agent that was offered larger deals by the
Denver Nuggets and Dallas Mavericks before taking Miami's offer of roughly $4
million per year for five years, according to the Miami Herald.
The Heat now have five players under contract after LeBron James and Chris
Bosh signed free agent contracts last week with the club, joining superstar
Dwyane Wade and guard Mario Chalmers.
But according to the Sun Sentinel on Monday, Miami is close to adding Miller,
who played with Haslem at the University of Florida. Miller, a career 40.5
percent three-point shooter, has been on three teams the last three years,
playing 54 games for Washington last season and averaging 13.7 points, 6.2
rebounds and 3.9 assists.
Over his 10-year career, Miller has logged 13.7 points and 5.1 boards over 693
contests with the Magic, Grizzlies, Timberwolves and Wizards.
Haslem, a Miami native, has spent his entire seven-year career with the Heat
and is the only player other than Wade that has stayed in Miami following its
2006 title.
"I am excited to be back," Haslem said. "It's a great opportunity to win.
Miami has always been my home, and I'm happy I can play here for years to
come."
The 30-year-old has played an integral reserve role for the Heat throughout
his career, averaging 10.0 points and 8.1 rebounds while logging nearly 31
minutes per game over 517 contests.

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch
Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.
Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.
"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."
