Hawks hope to snap funk in DC
Basketball Betting Lines
03/11/2010 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Atlanta Hawks hope to avoid a third straight loss when
they wrap up a three-game road trip Thursday night against the Southeast
Division-rival Washington Wizards at the Verizon Center.
Atlanta is winless so far on the trek and is coming off Monday's 99-98 setback
at New York in which Josh Smith posted a team-high 25 points, grabbed 10
rebounds and handed out six assists. Al Horford did his best with 18 points
and 12 boards for the Hawks, who have dropped two in a row since a four-game
winning streak. Horford was unable to get off a possible game-winning shot as
time expired.
"When I caught the ball, your instinct is just to shoot the ball. I wasn't
aware of the clock, I didn't know what was going on. I just threw it up
there," Horford told NBA.com "Obviously, it wasn't good but we had our
chance."
Joe Johnson had 22 points and Sixth Man of the Year candidate Jamal Crawford
posted 16 in defeat. Crawford leads the NBA in scoring among players that have
not started a game.
The Hawks, who are 15-16 as the guest, fell four games behind Orlando for
Southeast supremacy, but are tied with Boston for the third spot in the
Eastern Conference standings. Both Atlanta and the Celtics have dropped two in
a row since four-game win streaks.
Washington has lost four straight and opened a short homestand with Tuesday's
96-88 setback versus the Houston Rockets. Andray Blatche and Nick Young both
netted 18 points, while Al Thornton ended with 15 points and nine rebounds for
the Wizards, who are winless in their last four home games and 12-20 in DC.
"Their bigs outran our bigs," said Wizards head coach Flip Saunders. "We don't
run as fast from offense to defense as defense to offense."
James Singleton added 12 points in the loss, Washington's sixth in its last
seven tries. In 11 games since the All-Star break, Blatche has averaged 23.5
points and 10.4 rebounds and 3.0 assists per game.
Tonight's game is the third of four meetings between the Wizards and Hawks, as
Atlanta holds a 2-0 edge and will visit Washington again on April 10. The
Hawks have won the past seven matchups between the teams and are unbeaten in
the previous four contests at the Verizon Center.

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

Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament odds
As of February 9, MySportsbook.com has released its coveted 2007 Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament betting odds. “March Madness betting ” only a month away, the top ranked Florida Gators are favorite at 7-2 to win it all. The defending champs have not disappointed at all this season and currently have a 22-2 record and are undefeated (9-0) in SEC play. The Gators’ thrive off of their extremely balanced, experienced and versatile attack. All five starters started in last seasons National Championship game. What is most impressive with this group is their balance; the five starters all average between 10.7 and 13.6 PPG. The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.
Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country. A concern for the Tar Heels might be inexperience. Of their top four scorers/ minute earners, three are freshmen and the other is a sophomore. The rest of the regular season, the Tar Heels play only one team that is currently ranked (Duke). Their remaining opponents do combine for an impressive 107-58 record though.
