Blazers, Knicks set for battle in Rose CityBasketball Betting Lines03/31/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - A Portland Trail Blazers team aiming to improve their position in the Western Conference playoff standings welcomes the New York Knicks to the Rose Garden tonight. The streaking Blazers won their third straight game and for the eighth time in nine contests on Sunday when Andre Miller scored 26 points and Portland continued its ascent up the ladder in the West with a 92-87 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder. Brandon Roy chipped in 20 points and seven assists, while Marcus Camby tallied 11 points and 12 rebounds for the Trail Blazers, who are just one-half game behind the Thunder for sixth in the conference. Portland is also just one-half game ahead of No. 8 San Antonio but a more than comfortable 6 1/2 games clear of ninth place Memphis with only eight games to go in the regular season. "It's a big win and I think they knew that too," Miller said. "They let one slip away, but I'm sure they'll find a way to come back and make it up. They have a lot of good, hard-playing young guys." The Blazers' magic number to clinch a postseason berth is two and the team still has an outside shot of capturing the Northwest Division title. A win tonight coupled with a Memphis loss to Dallas would secure the playoff spot for Portland. Meanwhile, the Trail Blazers are 3 1/2 games behind division leader Utah and 2 1/2 behind second-place Denver in the Northwest. The Knicks are limping toward the finish line and fell to 0-2 on a five-game road trip in Salt Lake City on Monday after Carlos Boozer recorded a double- double with 26 points and 14 rebounds, while Deron Williams registered 23 points with 14 assists, as Utah topped New York, 103-98. Al Harrington led the Knicks with 26 points and 17 rebounds, David Lee added 16 points, Sergio Rodriguez collected 14 points and Tracy McGrady filled the stat sheet with 13 points, six assists and four rebounds. "They shot the ball 85-percent in the first quarter, and were 7 for 7 from three, all we could do was pray and hope that they started missing shots," said Harrington. The Knicks topped Portland in Madison Square Garden back in December and will be attempting to sweep the home-and-home season series for the first time since the 1999-2000 season.

The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino. The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1. MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5. Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
