Raptors host reeling KingsBasketball Betting Lines02/07/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Home cooking figures to be key this afternoon as the Toronto Raptors shoot for their seventh consecutive win at Air Canada Centre against a Sacramento Kings team aiming to avoid an 11th straight road loss. The Raptors opened a four-game homestand in winning fashion on Wednesday when Chris Bosh and Andrea Bargnani each provided 20 points, as Toronto defeated the lowly New Jersey Nets, 108-99. Antoine Wright added a season-high 18 points and seven rebounds for the Raptors, who have won six of seven overall. Sonny Weems set career-highs with 14 points and 11 rebounds, while Jarrett Jack had 17 points and nine assists in the victory. "We were able to step up. We had a seven-man rotation," Weems said. "Antoine stepped up big for us, Jack played really well. It feels good for a chance to showcase your stuff in front of your coach and other coaches in the NBA. To help my team win is all I wanted to do." Weems is helping fill the void left by injuries to rookie standout DeMar DeRozan (ankle) and Turkish star Hedo Turkoglu (fractured orbital bone).Both players could return this afternoon but Turkoglu is still trying to get comfortable with the protective mask he will have to wear for the next four to six weeks. The Kings, who are kicking off a three-game road trip today, have been falling apart recently and fell for the 12th time in 13 contests on Friday when Steve Nash finished just shy of a triple- double, recording 23 points, 10 assists and eight rebounds, as the Suns used a big third quarter run to down a reeling Sacramento team, 114-102, at ARCO Arena. Donte Greene had a career-high 31 points to go with seven rebounds for the Kings, who fell to 16-33 this season. Omri Casspi added 17 points and eight rebounds, while Tyreke Evans had 13 in the setback. Sacramento second-year forward Jason Thompson is expected to return for today's game after missing the past two contests in order to attend a family funeral. The red-hot Raptors were once 11-17 this season but have rebounded to go 16-6 since and move all the way to fifth place in the Eastern Conference playoff hunt. Meanwhile, the Kings were once 13-14 on the year but have gone a miserable 3-19 since. Toronto, which is 18-6 at the ACC this season, has won five straight over Sacramento north of the border.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting - Super Bowl 2009Super 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.
