Gasol carries short-handed Lakers over Spurs
Basketball Betting Lines
02/09/2010 -
Los Angeles, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Pau Gasol had a spectacular all-around game
with 21 points, 19 rebounds, a season-high eight assists and five blocked
shots, pacing the Los Angeles Lakers to a 101-89 win over the San Antonio Spurs.
Lakers All-Star guard Kobe Bryant sat out his second straight game due to a
sprained left ankle. LA was also missing Andrew Bynum (bruised right hip), but
Gasol filled the center role nicely.
"I can't move my ankle," Bryant said. "It's frustrating. If the All-Star game
was today I wouldn't play. If I can move and get to the basket I'll play.
We'll make a decision Wednesday."
Lamar Odom chipped in 16 points and 10 rebounds, while Ron Artest scored 18
for the Lakers, who moved to 25-4 at home this season. They've won seven of
their last nine games overall.
"We finished well for a game that seemed to be a struggle," Lakers coach Phil
Jackson said. "It's a good win for us. I like our defense. We're playing
better. Rebounding was terrific. It's always good for a team to rally with two
stars out."
Manu Ginobili had 21 points off the bench, while starter Tony Parker scored 20
for the Spurs, who failed to build on a victory in this same building two
nights ago against the Clippers. Tim Duncan registered 16 points and 15
rebounds.
"A disappointing loss. The Lakers were obviously a little short-handed and
played mentally tougher than we did," Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said. "They
played physically tougher than we did and got a win."
Ginobili's layup moved the Spurs within 74-70, 44 seconds into the final
quarter, but the Lakers ran off the ensuing seven points, capped by Shannon
Brown's three-ball.
A Ginobili three had the visitors within 81-75, but the Spurs failed to close
the gap the rest of the way.
The Spurs led 34-28 after one quarter, but the Lakers surged back for a 50-47
halftime edge. LA held a double-digit lead in the third before going to the
fourth with a 73-68 edge.

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.
NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.
Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.
Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.
Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.
