Minus Parker, Spurs ready for clash with Cavs
Basketball Betting Lines
03/08/2010 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - News out of San Antonio wasn't good this weekend with the
recent hand injury to Tony Parker. The Spurs hope they can get by without one
of their leaders starting with tonight's showdown against LeBron James and the
Cleveland Cavaliers at Quicken Loans Arena.
Parker left Saturday night's 102-92 victory against the Memphis Grizzlies with
a broken bone in his right hand and could miss at least six weeks. Parker, the
team's second-leading scorer at 16.6 points per game, had eight points before
leaving near the end of the first half.
"We're just beginning to look like we expected to look about a month and a
half ago," Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich said. "The Parker thing is really
deflating at this point."
Manu Ginobili and Tim Duncan each added 17 points for the Spurs, who have won
four in a row and opened a quick road trip on a winning note. Matt Bonner
chipped in 13 points and five boards off the bench, while George Hill ended
with 11 points for the victors.
San Antonio is 14-14 away from the Alamo City and sits seventh in the Western
Conference standings.
The Cavs gave James, the NBA's leading scorer, a rest in Saturday's 92-85 loss
at Milwaukee which ended their six-game winning streak. James is probable
against the Spurs with a sore right ankle and is averaging 30.0 points per
game this season.
Antawn Jamison picked up the slack and led all scorers with 30 points, while
Delonte West was only other Cleveland player in double figures with 27 in
defeat.
"I think defensively we did pretty well," Jamison said. "We definitely missed
some (opportunities) on the offensive end. The way (James) is able to create
easy opportunities for his teammates, it took us awhile to get things going in
the right direction."
Cleveland will try to extend its home winning streak to four games this
evening and has won 25 of its last 27 home games, averaging 105.7 points on
.515 shooting over that stretch. The top-seeded and Central Division-leading
Cavs own a strong 27-4 mark at home this season.
The Spurs and Cavs will play the first of two 2009-10 meetings tonight, with
Cleveland slated to visit San Antonio on March 26. The Cavaliers won both
matchups with San Antonio a season ago, as well as seven of the last 11
meetings at the 'Q' in this series.

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.
