Basketball Betting Lines

02/21/2007 - Charlotte, NC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Raymond Felton scored 21 points and doled out 11 assists, and the Charlotte Bobcats topped the New Orleans/Oklahoma City Hornets, 104-100.

Gerald Wallace also tallied 21 points, and grabbed seven rebounds for the Bobcats, who won their second in a row. Emeka Okafor was a force, finishing with 16 points, 15 rebounds, and five blocked shots. Adam Morrison added 18 points off the bench, and Derek Anderson scored 12, including two clutch free throws with 6.4 seconds left to ice the game.

Chris Paul scored 20 points and tallied seven assists for the Hornets, who had won 9 of 12 entering the game. Tyson Chandler finished with 16 points and 20 boards, Desmond Mason scored 17 points and grabbed six boards, and David West scored 16 points and racked in seven boards for the Hornets.

A Jannero Pargo three pulled the Hornets to within 102-100 with 31.5 seconds left, and Felton gave the Hornets a golden opportunity by missing a jumper from the lane with seven seconds left. Okafor tipped the rebound up in the air, though, and Anderson drew a loose ball foul from Devin Brown. Anderson sank both free throws, clinching the win.

Paul opened the second half with a three, spurring a 10-0 Hornets run that nudged them on top of the Bobcats, 54-53. The teams battled neck-and-neck for the rest of the quarter, almost coming to blows at on point.

Charlotte's Jake Voskuhl fouled Paul as the Hornets guard drove the lane, drawing a referee's whistle with 5:14 left in the third. Voskuhl did not let go of Paul's left arm, though, and the second-year guard spiked the ball off of Voskuhl's arm, causing a commotion under the basket, with players from both teams shoving each other.

When the dust settled the referees handed out five technicals, including fouls to Voskuhl and Paul.

The Hornets led 78-77 entering the fourth quarter.

The Bobcats led 25-24 after the first quarter, and 53-44 at the half.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting - Super Bowl 2009

Super Bowl 2009, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds and the betting line and figure out where they’ve been and where they are going to go.

MySportsbook.com put up the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds late on Sunday night with the Pittsburgh Steelers favored by 6.5 points and a total betting line at 47.5 points.

Since then, however, the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds have seen a good deal of movement and you’ll want to be on top of where they are likely to move to make sure you get the best line value for the big game.

Since opening, the Super Bowl 2009 betting lines went to Steelers -7 in the span of roughly 3 hours but were quickly bought back down just minutes later to 6.5 again.

After that is took about 5-6 more hours before the betting line went back to -7 where it has sat for a while now and is likely to remain. The opening betting total of 47.5 was bet down right after the line became available and went to 47 within minutes.

Roughly a day later it has been bet even further down to the 46.5 tally it currently is set at.

Roughly 60% of gamblers seem to be on the Cardinals here so the point spread will be bet down and a 7.5 would not last very long at all with many taking the early 6.5 in hopes of finding a potential middle in the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds.

If you like Arizona and see a 7.5, I’d take it as soon as possible because it’s unlikely to last. For Pittsburgh backers, the -7 might be the best you’ll be able to find but a 6.5 is definitely possible close to game time.

Regarding the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds for the total, most tracked gamblers are already on the over and with those who took the under 47.5 already securing a middle on the over 46.5, the only way I see it moving is back up to 47 so if you like the over, I’d recommend betting now.
