Basketball Betting Lines

03/12/2010 - Memphis, TN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Zach Randolph had 24 points and 11 rebounds, as the Memphis Grizzlies held on to take a 119-112 victory over the New York Knicks.

O.J. Mayo had 22 points and Rudy Gay provided 20 for Memphis, which led by as many as 29 before the Knicks got within single digits in the final minutes. But the Grizzlies held on to get their second straight win at home following an eight-game losing streak at FedExForum.

Mike Conley added 18 points, six assists and five boards for Memphis, which has won three in a row overall.

Bill Walker had 21 points off the bench to pace the Knicks, who have lost four of their last five. Fellow reserves Toney Douglas and Al Harrington had 19 and 15 points, respectively, while David Lee ended with 17 points and 14 rebounds.

The Knicks trailed 110-87 with a little over six minutes left in the fourth quarter, but went on a 15-2 run to cut into their deficit. Douglas provided eight points, including a three that got New York within 112-102 with 2:25 left.

Each team was unsuccessful on its next possession, and after Conley went 1- of-2 from the line, Walker got hot from beyond the arc. He made one before Randolph sank a layup, then came back and buried a second trey to make it a 115-108 game with 56.2 seconds remaining.

An offensive foul by Marc Gasol gave the Knicks an opportunity to get closer, and Wilson Chandler delivered, getting a short jumper in the lane to fall with 34.7 left. But the Knicks never got their deficit under five, as Conley and Randolph each sank two free throws in the remaining time.

Memphis used a 10-0 run to move in front 19-10 just past the midway point of the first, and led 32-24 at the quarter's conclusion.

The Grizzlies continued to play in front in the second and used a 13-0 run to take control. Mayo closed the stretch with a jumper to make it 55-37, and Memphis led 63-42 at the break.

The Grizzlies led by as many as 29 in the third, and were ahead 94-73 moving to the fourth.

Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl Odds

Will he or won't he?  Now that the Dallas Cowboys have a new head coach in Wade Phillips, the big question will be: Does Terrell Owens stay with the team.

Jerry Jones continues to suggest that Terrell Owens will remain with the team.

"I've said that he's back, he's here, he's under contract," Jones said. "In the interviews I've just been through (to hire a new coach), it was very clear to me how highly he's thought of and how much of an impact he had on our offensive success."

Just to be sure though, Terrell Owens cleared out his locker and removed his name plate.

Terrell Owens was among the Cowboys most productive players this past season, catching 85 passes for 1,180 yards and a league-best 13 touchdowns.

But T.O. is due a $3 million roster bonus in June, then a $5 million salary this season. Cutting him before then would save a lot of money and headaches.

Aside from the questions surrounding Terrell Owens, the oddsmakers at MySportsbook.com have concerns over starting quarterback Tony Romo's state of mind and whether he will remain a starting quarterback.  It is also not known how players will adjust to new head coach, Wade Phillips.

MySportsbook.com refunds all bets on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay from NFL week one.

(September 14) – Week one of NFL action saw three teams go scoreless for the first time since 1977.  Another four were unable to get a touchdown and almost half of the underdogs covered the spread. Those three teams saved bettors at MySportsbook.com from losing out completely, thanks to the company’s unique NFL Shutout Rule -- which ensures that if the team you backed goes scoreless, your wager is refunded.

Sportsbook refunded tens of thousands of dollars to customers who bet on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay, the three teams that stunk up the field so badly that their fans and backers never had a chance to get up from their couches and cheer.  In the spirit of the low scoring start to the season, odds makers at the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino have set odds on how many total shutouts there will be this season. 

MySportsbook.com has posted updated sports betting lines for week two of the season.  Ben Roethlisberger’s health status is still questionable, so Willie Parker will try to lead Pittsburgh again as they travel to Jacksonville as a one point favorite.  After beating up on his little brother last week, Peyton Manning will look to lead the Colts to victory against Houston. Indianapolis is a whopping 13.5 favorite in the match-up.

Seattle, last year’s highest scoring team, showed the power of their defense with their gritty 9-6 win in Motown over the ravenous Lions.  They take their act back home to the comforts of Qwest Field where they will face the resurgent Arizona Cardinals.  The Seahawks are favored by a touchdown.
