Nuggets, Spurs clash in San Antonio

Basketball Betting Lines

02/20/2007 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The San Antonio Spurs have recovered from their eight-game road trip and return to the AT&T Center this evening to host the Denver Nuggets.

San Antonio, which is second in the Southwest standings, went 4-4 on the swing and has won two straight, including last Wednesday's 90-81 win over the Detroit Pistons at The Palace of Auburn Hills.

Tim Duncan scored 23 points and grabbed eight rebounds, while Manu Ginobili added 20 points to help end Detroit's seven-game winning streak. Tony Parker netted 16 points and dished out eight assists for the Spurs, who will now work on their 16-8 home record.

Duncan had four points and five rebounds, while Parker added eight points and 10 assists in Sunday's win for the West in the 56th All-Star Game.

Meanwhile, the Nuggets had a three-game winning streak come to an with a 99-94 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves on February 14 at the Target Center.

All-Star Carmelo Anthony left the game with a bruised right thigh but returned to score 28 points. Nene scored 18 points for the Nuggets, who are 12-11 away from the Pepsi Center this season.

Anthony recorded 20 points and nine boards for the West on Sunday.

Denver played Minnesota without All-Star guard Allen Iverson, who has eight out of the Nuggets last nine games with a sprained ankle. Iverson, who is questionable for tonight, skipped Sunday's All-Star Game in Las Vegas due to the injury. The Nuggets are 4-4 in the stretch without Iverson, who is probable for tonight's contest.

Tuesday's matchup between Denver and San Antonio is the second of three meetings this season. The Spurs won the first encounter, 92-83, on January 10 at the Pepsi Center.

Denver has won four of the last seven meetings, but has dropped nine of 11 and 16 of its last 19 trips to San Antonio.

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL lines


Now that the 2008 NFL schedule is finally out, it is only matter-of-course for lines on “Week 1” to follow.  Of course MySportsbook.com is the first to churn out odds for the NFL’s inaugural week for the upcoming season.   Expect a lot of fireworks the first Thursday night of the season as the defending champion Indianapolis Colts face off against the surprise of the 2008 season, the New Orleans Saints.  These teams were ranked #1 and #3 in the NFL respectively a season ago so a high scoring affair could be in order.  As of now, the Colts will be giving 6 points to the Saints; keep in mind the Saints were one of the better road teams last season going 6-3 SU and 7-2 ATS.  The first Monday night of the season will again provide a “double feature”. Coming off a disappointing season, the Cincinnati Bengals will look to get back to playoffs and improve their public image as they take on the AFC North favorite Baltimore Ravens.  The second game features a couple of teams that haven’t had too much success recently but each could make some noise if the NFC is as weak as it was last year as the San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals. The most interesting game of the opening week will feature the NFC champion Bears as they hit the road to take on the NFL’s top team during last year’s regular season, the San Diego Chargers.

MySportsbook.com Week 1 odds:

Saints +6 @ Colts -6

Falcons @ Vikings (pick ‘em)

Panthers @ Rams (pick ‘em)

Broncos -3.5 @ Bills +3.5

Chiefs -1 @ Texans +1

Dolphins +3 @ Redskins -3

Patriots -5 @ Jets +5

Matt Kenseth And Kevin Harvick Favorites To Take NASCAR Nextel Cup Championship

(September 15)—The NASCAR season has hit the homestretch with the opening event on this year’s Chase for the Cup taking place this weekend at the Sylvania 300 at New Hampshire International Speedway. With 10 races remaining to determine the Cup Series champion, leading online sportsbook MySportsbook.com today announced odds on all 10 Chase qualifying drivers capturing the NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship.

One of the largest sportsbook sites on the Internet, MySportsbook.com currently lists the top two drivers in the point standings as the early favorites to win the Nextel Cup. Entering the Chase for the Cup with a slim five-point lead in the point standings, 2003 NASCAR champ Matt Kenseth has been made a slight favorite to win his second Cup at 7/2 betting odds. 2001 Cup Rookie of the Year Kevin Harvick has betting odds listed at 5/2 and four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon is listed at 6/1 to capture the Nextel Cup this year.

Hoping to follow in the footsteps of his legendary father who won six NASCAR titles, Dale Earnhardt Jr. stands at 8/1 to breakthrough with his first Cup victory. Staying with the family theme, MySportsbook.com lists 2005 Rookie of the Year Kyle Busch at 14/1 to succeed big brother Kurt’s 2004 NASCAR title. While Kasey Kahne was the final driver to qualify for the Chase with a third place finish last week, the oddsmakers give him a fighting chance at 10/1 mainly due to several mile-and-a-half tracks remaining on the schedule. Despite going winless on the NASCAR circuit this season, Jeff Burton enters the Chase at 5/1 to capture the Cup title. Meanwhile, rookie Denny Hamlin is 4/1 to win the championship, while veteran driver Mark Martin enters the Chase for the Cup as a 15/1 long shot to win his first NASCAR title in his 24th and final season.

MySportsbook.com will offer comprehensive Nascar betting lines on every race remaining on the Nextel Cup series including driver match-ups, props and odds to win each race. For a complete list of NASCAR odds, please visit www.MySportsbook.com.
