Clippers crush Thunder
Basketball Betting Lines
11/19/2008 -
Oklahoma City, OK (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Chris Kaman led a balanced attack with 25
points and 14 rebounds, and the Los Angeles Clippers defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder, 108-88, in a battle of the league's two worst teams.
With a combined record of 2-19 coming into the contest, the Clippers and
Thunder had the two worst winning percentages in the NBA.
Cuttino Mobley added 23 points and seven steals for Los Angeles, which snapped
a three-game losing streak. Al Thornton added 20 points and seven rebounds in
the win. Marcus Camby and Baron Davis each had 14 points for the Clippers.
Kevin Durant had a team-high 18 points for the Thunder, who have now dropped
nine straight games since a win over Minnesota. Damien Wilkins scored 17
points, while Russell Westbrook came off the bench to score 10 points and dish
out four assists.
Down three at halftime, Los Angeles started the third on a 16-8 spurt to seize
a 65-60 edge. Joe Smith's jumper pulled the Thunder to within three, but
the Clippers scored the next 12 points to take a 77-62 lead. LA outscored
Oklahoma City, 32-16, in the third quarter to take a commanding 81-68 lead to
the fourth.
The Clippers were able to maintain that lead until late in the final quarter,
when the visitors increased their advantage to 20, at 99-79, with about three
minutes to go. LA was able to cruise to the victory from there.
Durant and Green each scored seven in the first quarter, and Oklahoma City
led, 26-20, after the opening period.
Durant's monstrous dunk with 4 1/2 minutes left in the half finished off a 7-0
spurt that gave the Thunder their largest lead at 13. But the Clippers closed
on a 16-6 run, as Thornton's nine second quarter points helped close to within
three at halftime.
Game Notes

of-23) from the free throw line. They only shot 40 percent (30-of-75) from the
field overall...LA shot 47.4 percent (46-of-97) from the field...Oklahoma City

Super 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.
