Bobcats hope to end slide against Suns
Basketball Betting Lines
02/04/2012 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Charlotte Bobcats certainly hope to halt an ugly 10-
game skid tonight but maybe Paul Silas' club should just focus on staying
competitive when its visits the desert to take on the Phoenix Suns.
The Bobcats are an NBA worst 3-20 and have lost the first two games of a four-
game road trip by an average of 38.5 ppg. After falling in Hollywood to the
Lakers by 33, Charlotte responded with a 44-point setback in Rip City against
Portland.
Gerald Henderson scored 16 points on Wednesday vs. the Blazers while Derrick
Brown finished with 12 points for the Bobcats, who shot just 32.1 percent from
the field.
"This one's over and we have to move on...it was a bad game for us," Silas
understated.
Henderson, the team's leading scorer at 15.0 ppg, strained his hamstring in
Portland and is expected to miss two to four weeks of action.
Charlotte, which will finish its trek in Boston on Tuesday, is a dismal 1-12
as the visitor on the season. It has lost 10 straight for the longest slide
since a franchise-record 13-game skid from Jan. 11-Feb. 1, 2006.
The Suns are back in the desert following a brief two-game road trip (1-1) and
hope to gain a measure of consistency, having lost five of seven and 10 of
their last 14 contests.
In a 99-81 loss at Houston last night, Marcin Gortat recorded a double-double
of 15 points and 12 rebounds. Jared Dudley also scored 15 points and Steve
Nash provided just six points and handed out nine assists for Phoenix, which
made 41 percent of its shots and was outrebounded by a 49-39 margin.
"We came out without any energy and we could never find our rhythm," Gortat
said. "They came out strong and with a lot of energy. We were not ready to
play either physically or mentally. We didn't have the best effort. I'm trying
to do as much as possible and it is very frustrating."
Phoenix hopes to improve on its 4-6 home record tonight.
The Bobcats have actually won four straight over Phoenix and five of six
overall. In the Valley of the Sun, Charlotte is 2-5 all-time in its short
history.

NFL ODDSTop Football Betting Free Agents to Change Teams
NFL Betting
It’s time to see how the biggest NFL free agent signings will perform for their news teams. Some will work out and could be the difference that makes a difference in the win column.
We look at the best off-season signings and if they should influence your NFL betting this season. Julius Peppers – Peppers was the biggest prize available on the 2010 NFL free agent market and the Chicago Bears opened the bank to bring his talents to the south side.
Peppers is explosive, he can get around blockers and cause quarterbacks to lose their minds. We all remember the classic Peppers game last year against the Vikings where he hounded Brett Favre into his worst game of the season. Peppers joining the Bears could be the reason Favre retired for good Tuesday morning. In addition to Peppers, the Bears added Chester Taylor to back up Matt Forte, Forte didn’t have the same intensity in 2009 compared to 2008 and bringing in Taylor will challenge Forte to bring it every game or he’ll risk losing carries to Taylor.
Betting on the Bears is a good option this season because of Julius Peppers and to a lesser extent Taylor. Antonio Bryant and Terrell Owens – The Cincinnati Bengals signed two former number one wide receivers to line up with Chad Ocho Cinco. Antonio Bryant had a huge season in 2008 catching 83 passes for over 1200 yards but regressed last season. Playing for the Tampa Bay Bucs last season was a large part of the regression, everyone was bad in TB last season.
Bryant should have a bounce back season if he can win the number two spot from Terrell Owens. If Bryant wins the number 2 WR spot, it will open up a completely new set of problems for the Bengals. If Owens is forced to the bench in favor of Bryant, his attitude will create trouble for Carson Palmer and head coach Marv Lewis. If Owens is the number two receiver, it means Bryant can’t live up to his past numbers and the Bengals are still limited in the passing game. NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. 2010 football betting lines for this can be found at this top online sportsbook. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense.
NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense. They signed away the Arizona Cardinals top linebacker Karlos Danby. In the past two seasons, Danby has totaled 228 tackles, 5 sacks, 3 interceptions and 3 forced fumbles. The Dolphins are the forgotten team of the AFC East with the second longest odds to win the division but with the addition of Karlos Danby and a trade for WR Brandon Marshall makes the Miami Dolphins legitimate contenders in the AFC East and in the NFL’s Eastern Conference.
The Dolphins will make NFL wagering fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash. NFL Wagering
