Lakers shoot for another season sweep of Warriors
Basketball Betting Lines
03/15/2010 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Pacific Division foes square off for the last time this
season on Monday when the defending NBA champion Los Angeles Lakers head up
the California coast to take on the Golden State Warriors.
The Lakers - Warriors rivalry has been rather lopsided in recent years and LA
will be shooting for a ninth straight win over Golden State tonight, and a
sweep of the season series for the second straight year. Overall, the Lakers
are a gaudy 24-4 in their last 28 meetings with the Warriors.
Most recently, LA took care of second place Phoenix in the desert last Friday
when Kobe Bryant finished with 21 points, 10 rebounds and eight assists, as
the Lakers earned a 102-96 victory over the Suns.
Andrew Bynum had 18 points and nine boards for the Lakers, who have won two in
a row after losing a season-high three straight. Pau Gasol, Ron Artest and
Derek Fisher each scored 15 points in the victory as Los Angeles took the
season series with its Pacific Division rival, 3-1.
"We just took what they gave us," Bryant said. "Shot distribution was pretty
good. I think all in all we attacked wherever they put two guys. Wherever they
doubled we did a good job spacing out, making shots, shot the three-ball
pretty well. That opened the game up for us."
The Warriors, meanwhile, are coming off a rare win on Saturday after rookie
star Stephen Curry finished with 35 points and Monta Ellis added 31 to help
Golden State end a six-game slide with a 124-112 win over the Toronto Raptors.
Curry, who was one point off his career high, added 10 assists and six
rebounds, while Ellis was playing in his second contest since a six-game
absence. They sank five three-pointers apiece to lead Golden State's potent
long-distance attack, as the Warriors finished 16-of-27 from beyond the arc
overall.
"Oh, it's great to see," Warriors head coach Don Nelson said of Curry and
Ellis. "They've played some really good games together and of course they've
played some not-so-good games together. It's great to see when they share the
ball and take care of each other when they're open."
Corey Maggette added 20 points in the victory, which got Nelson closer to
Lenny Wilkens' all-time record for coaching wins. In his 31st season as an NBA
head coach, Nelson now has 1,327 wins and is six away from breaking Wilkens'
record of 1,332.

NFL Football Betting : Odds on NFL Division to Win the Super Bowl
NFL Super Bowl Betting
The AFC South and the NFC East are the favorite divisions to have the next Super Bowl champ among them in the NFL betting odds. But more down to the point, these football odds are in favor of the Indianapolis Colts, by far the strongest team in the AFC South, and the Dallas Cowboys of the NFC East.
Most sports fans would agree that these two teams top the list to win it all before the season even begins. In the BetUS Sportsbook football futures, the Colts are +800 in the odds to win the Super Bowl, while the Cowboys are sitting at +1000 and the Super Bowl XLIV champions New Orleans Saints at +900. In the AFC South, the Colts won the division for five straight years after the 2002 realignment, before the Tennessee Titans won it in 2008. But the Colts came back strong in 2009 to win the division again en route to the Super Bowl. The Cowboys are the favorite to win the NFC East, as well as to advance far into the post season. The Cowboys won the division last season before their horrendous loss in the NFC Divisional playoff to Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings. But the ‘Boys will take that loss humbly and be ready for the playoffs this time around.
The NFC South is also very strong, at +600 in the NFL futures, considering that it is home to the defending Super Bowl champions. However, some predictions have the Atlanta Falcons with possibilities of claiming the divisional title this season in place of the Saints, as no team has won back-to-back division championships since the division realignment took place. Let’s not overlook the AFC North at +500. As TO goes to Cincinnati to join Chad OchoCinco and Adam “Pac-Man” Jones, this team looks to claim the division title again. And it is likely they will do so. The Bengals lost in the AFC Wild Card spot in a hard-fought battle against the New York Jets last season. Lest not forget the Pittsburgh Steelers, the XLII Super Bowl Champions… All these teams present interesting odds and matchups for the upcoming season, but the safest and surest bet seems to be with the Colts in the AFC South and the Cowboys in the NFC East. Play this weekly NFL Football Contestto see if you can win.

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds
With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best Heisman Trophy odds at 5-2.
Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season. Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money.
This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy. A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.
Current betting odds Heisman trophy are:
Brady Quinn (QB, Notre Dame)
Adrian Peterson (RB, Oklahoma)
