Basketball Betting Lines
07/28/2010 -
Colorado Springs, CO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - USA Basketball announced Wednesday the
15 finalists for its 2010 USA World Championship Team.
USA Basketball chairman Jerry Colangelo selected the finalists from a group
that assembled in Las Vegas earlier this month to open training for the 2010
FIBA World Championship, which will be held August 28 through September 12 in
Turkey.
The finalists include: Chauncey Billups (Denver Nuggets); Tyson Chandler
(Dallas Mavericks); Stephen Curry (Golden State Warriors); Kevin Durant
(Oklahoma City Thunder); Rudy Gay (Memphis Grizzlies); Eric Gordon (Los Angeles Clippers); Danny Granger (Indiana Pacers); Jeff Green (Oklahoma City Thunder); Andre Iguodala (Philadelphia 76ers); Brook Lopez (New Jersey Nets);
Kevin Love (Minnesota Timberwolves); Lamar Odom (Los Angeles Lakers); Rajon
Rondo (Boston Celtics); Derrick Rose (Chicago Bulls); and Russell Westbrook
(Oklahoma City Thunder).
The team will reassemble August 9 in New York City and train there from August
10-16. The team will need to be further narrowed to 12 prior to the start of
the competition.
"We had an outstanding week of training camp in Las Vegas and it is apparent
we have a group of guys that are very focused, committed, and desirous of
playing for USA Basketball. The identity of the team is still evolving, but it
is pretty obvious we're going to be very athletic; we're going to be very
strong in the back court; we think our shooting ability is underestimated,"
stated Colangelo.
"We have much more to do in New York and in our upcoming exhibition games as
we proceed toward Turkey, but we're excited and enthusiastic about our
chances."
The 2010-12 USA National Team coaching staff is led by Duke's Hall of Fame
coach Mike Krzyzewski, while Syracuse's Hall of Fame coach Jim Boeheim, New York Knicks head coach Mike D'Antoni and Portland Trail Blazers head coach
Nate McMillan are assistants.

Stanley Cup betting
New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! 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.
