Basketball Betting Lines
02/13/2012 -
Chicago, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Bulls guard Derrick Rose has no structural
damage in his back, according to the results of an MRI performed Monday.
A team spokesman said the reigning NBA MVP, who has missed two straight games
with a sore back, remains day-to-day.
Rose has been battling the ailment. He left a lopsided win over New Jersey on
February 6 after playing only 11 minutes, then played just 22 minutes in a
rout of New Orleans two days later before missing the last two games.
He has also missed time this season because of a toe injury and is averaging
22.0 points, 7.8 assists and 3.4 rebounds in 23 games.
The Bulls lead the Eastern Conference with a 23-7 record and will begin a six-
game homestand Tuesday against Sacramento. They just finished a 6-3 road trip.

March Madness odds and printable March Madness brackets
With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
