Jazz return home to face hapless Wizards
Basketball Betting Lines
03/15/2010 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Utah Jazz hope a return to Salt Lake City against a
hapless Washington team will get them back on the winning track as the
postseason approaches.
The short-handed Jazz dropped the final two games of a four-game road trip,
the latest of which came last night in Oklahoma City when Russell Westbrook
poured in 30 points and dished out 11 assists, as the Thunder took down Utah
119-111.
Wesley Matthews finished with a career-high 29 points for the Jazz, who ended
the four-game trip with a 2-2 mark and are now just a half-game ahead of the
Thunder for the fifth seed in the Western Conference standings.
Deron Williams battled through a sore shoulder and wrist to record 27 points
and 14 assists before fouling out. Carlos Boozer tallied 18 points and 11
boards for Utah, which lost back-to-back games for the first time since a
three-game skid from December 31-January 4.
"That was about as physical a basketball team as we're going to face," Thunder
head coach Scott Brooks said of the Jazz. "It's great for our guys to
experience it and compete against a very veteran, physical, playoff-tested
team."
The Jazz were without center Mehmet Okur (back) and forward Andrei Kirilenko
(calf) on Sunday and both players are listed as questionable for tonight's
game.
The Wizards, who are opening up a four-game road trip tonight, continue to
falter down the stretch and dropped their season-high seventh consecutive game
on Saturday against Orlando. Dwight Howard put up 28 points, grabbed 15
rebounds and even dished out five assists in that one, as the Magic overcame a
sluggish start to upend Washington, 109-95.
Andray Blatche posted 32 points for the Wizards, who actually led by 15 before
stumbling to yet another loss. Shaun Livingston provided 18 points and eight
assists, and Al Thornton chipped in 15 points in defeat.
"Unfortunately the game's are 48 minutes and not 12," joked Wizards head coach
Flip Saunders.
Blatche has been the lone bright spot for Washington, averaging 24.5 points
and 9.8 rebounds in 14 games since joining the starting lineup.
The Jazz have won 18 of their last 21 home games against the Wizards.

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.
