Knicks finally win two straight, top struggling Sixers
Basketball Betting Lines
03/15/2010 -
Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Danilo Gallinari finished with 21 points
to lead the New York Knicks to a 94-84 victory over the struggling
Philadelphia 76ers.
Rookie Toney Douglas added 20 points and seven assists for the Knicks, who
were coming off Saturday's victory at Dallas that snapped the Mavericks' 13-
game winning streak. New York hadn't won consecutive games since a three-game
streak from January 1-7.
Tracy McGrady hit 4-of-5 from three-point range on his way to 14 points, while
David Lee added 16 rebounds and eight points. Wilson Chandler had 12 points
and 11 boards in the victory.
Rookie Jrue Holiday had 18 points, eight rebounds and six assists to pace the
Sixers, who have lost five in a row and 10 of their last 11. Andre Iguodala
finished with 14 points and 17 rebounds, while Samuel Dalembert recorded 11
points and 18 boards for Philadelphia, which held a 54-38 rebounding advantage
and collected 21 on the offensive end.
However, the Sixers had just 20 second-chance points as they shot 38.4
percent. Iguodala was a main factor in that percentage, as he missed all seven
of his three-point tries and was 5-of-22 overall.
Each team led in the first quarter, which Chandler closed with a layup for a
26-25 Knicks edge. The Sixers, however, surged in the second quarter behind a
10-point effort from reserve Willie Green and nine points from Holiday.
Holiday scored seven in a row early in the frame to put Philadelphia ahead
35-30, and Green eventually ended the first half with a layup to put the
Sixers up 55-44 at the break.
Philadelphia was still ahead by nine with five minutes left in the third
quarter, but the Knicks ended the frame on a 17-4 run. Lee closed it with a
layup as New York went into the fourth quarter with a 73-69 advantage.
The Knicks couldn't pull away, however, and Holiday's layup with 3:47 left had
the Sixers within 85-82. But Douglas countered with a jumper, and after a
series of misses, Gallinari sank two from the line with 2:03 to play for an
89-82 advantage. An Iguodala miss led to a Gallinari three, and the Knicks
held on from there.
Game Notes
The Sixers shot 27.3 percent in the second half. They scored fewer points in
the final two quarters (29) than they did in the second quarter alone
(30)...New York improved to 2-2 on its five-game road trip, which ends
Wednesday at Boston. The Knicks are 10-22 on the road this season...The Sixers
fell to 10-22 at home...Philadelphia is 3-14 when scoring below 90 points this
season...Green finished with 17 points...Al Harrington had 15 points for the
Knicks, who made 11-of-25 from beyond the arc.

NFL Football Betting : Odds on NFL Division to Win the Super Bowl
NFL Super Bowl Betting
The AFC South and the NFC East are the favorite divisions to have the next Super Bowl champ among them in the NFL betting odds. But more down to the point, these football odds are in favor of the Indianapolis Colts, by far the strongest team in the AFC South, and the Dallas Cowboys of the NFC East.
Most sports fans would agree that these two teams top the list to win it all before the season even begins. In the BetUS Sportsbook football futures, the Colts are +800 in the odds to win the Super Bowl, while the Cowboys are sitting at +1000 and the Super Bowl XLIV champions New Orleans Saints at +900. In the AFC South, the Colts won the division for five straight years after the 2002 realignment, before the Tennessee Titans won it in 2008. But the Colts came back strong in 2009 to win the division again en route to the Super Bowl. The Cowboys are the favorite to win the NFC East, as well as to advance far into the post season. The Cowboys won the division last season before their horrendous loss in the NFC Divisional playoff to Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings. But the ‘Boys will take that loss humbly and be ready for the playoffs this time around.
The NFC South is also very strong, at +600 in the NFL futures, considering that it is home to the defending Super Bowl champions. However, some predictions have the Atlanta Falcons with possibilities of claiming the divisional title this season in place of the Saints, as no team has won back-to-back division championships since the division realignment took place. Let’s not overlook the AFC North at +500. As TO goes to Cincinnati to join Chad OchoCinco and Adam “Pac-Man” Jones, this team looks to claim the division title again. And it is likely they will do so. The Bengals lost in the AFC Wild Card spot in a hard-fought battle against the New York Jets last season. Lest not forget the Pittsburgh Steelers, the XLII Super Bowl Champions… All these teams present interesting odds and matchups for the upcoming season, but the safest and surest bet seems to be with the Colts in the AFC South and the Cowboys in the NFC East. Play this weekly NFL Football Contestto see if you can win.
