Hill, Spurs continue recent dominance over Clippers

Basketball Betting Lines

02/07/2010 - Los Angeles, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - George Hill scored 22 points on 8-of-11 shooting, and the San Antonio Spurs notched their 15th straight win over the Clippers with a 98-81 win at Staples Center.

Tony Parker added 14 points and 14 assists for the Spurs, who have not lost to the Clippers since March 7, 2006. Tim Duncan and Matt Bonner each contributed 11 points in the resounding victory.

Chris Kaman had 21 points to pace the Clippers, who scored just 27 points in the first half and were coming off a 2-6 road trip. Eric Gordon contributed 20 points as the only other Los Angeles player to score in double-figures.

It was not the best head coaching debut for Kim Hughes, who replaced Mike Dunleavy on the Clippers' bench earlier this week after Dunleavy decided to focus on his role as general manager of the team.

San Antonio got off to a quick start and never looked back.

The Clippers scored the game's first four points, but the Spurs answered with the next 18. Hill got things going with the first seven San Antonio points, and his three-pointer with 5:15 left made it an 18-4 contest.

Hill, who had 17 in the first quarter, finished the period with a pair of buckets for a 28-10 Spurs advantage.

The Spurs led by as many as 22 in the second quarter and took a commanding 49-27 lead into halftime.

Richard Jefferson's dunk just prior to the four-minute mark of the third provided San Antonio with their largest lead of the game at 65-34, and it was 82-62 heading into the fourth, which was just a formality on the way to the Spurs' win.

Game Notes

The Spurs improved to 2-1 on an eight-game road trip that will see the team visit the Lakers, Nuggets, Pacers, 76ers and Pistons...San Antonio is 10-10 on the road, and Los Angeles is 14-10 at home...The 27 points by the Clippers in the first half is a season-low for any half.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect

LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet.

Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots.

Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4.

Brandon Roy Favorite to Win 2007 NBA Rookie of the Year

Portland TrailBlazer’s guard, Brandon Roy, is MySportsbook.com’s overwhelming favorite to win the NBA Rookie of the Year odds.

Despite missing 20 games due to an injury earlier this season, Roy has definitely put up the best numbers of his 1st year peers. In 32 games, Roy is averaging 15.3 PPG, 4.2 boards and 3.5 assists in over 33 minutes of play per game. While most rookies breakdown as the season progresses (see Morrison), Roy is only getting stronger as his playing time and scoring average has increased each month.

With 30 or so games left in the regular season, Roy isn’t a lock for the award by any means. Other rookies are putting together some pretty impressive campaigns and a few could give Roy a run for the award with increased playing time. Heading the list is first pick, Andrea Bargnani of the Toronto Raptors. Even though he has started only two games all season, Bargnani is averaging 10.3 PPPG while shooting 35% from deep.

Randy Foye of the Minnesota Timberwolves could be set to give Roy the best competition NBA Rookie of the Year betting lines. With the benching of Mike James, Foye looks like he could be the starter in the T-Wolves backcourt for the rest of the season. So far, Foye has averaged 9 PPG and 2.4 assists in just under 21 minutes per game. With his new role of starter, Foye’s numbers will definitely increase. In his first game as the new starting guard this past Sunday, Foye had 10 points; five rebounds and 8 assists. More importantly, he logged 34 minutes of playing time; his third highest run of the season.

Adam Morrison, of the Charlotte Bobcats, was the favorite early on in the season after averaging 15+ PPG through the first month of the season. Ever since his torrid start, Morrison’s point production has declined each month. This really isn’t surprising, considering at 6’8” he only weighs 205 lbs. Obviously he will need to hit the weights big time during the off-season in order to keep from breaking down in the future.
