Fading Hornets resume road trip vs. Clippers
Basketball Betting Lines
03/15/2010 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The fading New Orleans Hornets resume a five-game road trip
at Staples Center tonight hoping for their 13th straight win over the Los Angeles Clippers.
The Hornets dropped the opener of their trek in Phoenix last night when Amare
Stoudemire scored 36 points, pulled down 12 rebounds and sank all 14 of his
free throw attempts, as the Suns ran past New Orleans, 120-106.
Rookie Marcus Thornton scored 28 for the Hornets, who have lost three straight
and seven of their last eight games. David West ended with 24 points and seven
rebounds in defeat. Emeka Okafor chipped in 15 and 12, while Darren Collison
contributed 13 points with 10 assists.
"It's tough. Amare took over the game in the third quarter," Thornton said.
"We made some silly turnovers and that's like giving them two points every
time. We just have to work through it and be professionals."
New Orleans, which is a miserable 7-14 since losing All-Star Chris Paul to a
knee injury, is now an almost insurmountable eight games behind Portland for
the final playoff spot in the West with just 15 games left to be played.
The Clippers, meanwhile, continue to play out the string and are coming off
another setback in a long line of futility against the San Antonio Spurs on
Saturday. Matt Bonner had a team-high 21 points in that one, as the Spurs
cruised to a 118-88 win, their 16th consecutive victory over the hapless
Clips.
The Spurs also completed the series sweep for the fourth consecutive season,
as the Clippers haven't won against them since March 7, 2006. San Antonio's
current streak against the Clippers is the league's longest by one team
against a single opponent.
Baron Davis totaled 22 points to pace the Clippers, who have lost seven in a
row overall. Travis Outlaw had 17 points, six assists and five boards in the
loss.
"We have to compete," Clippers head coach Kim Hughes said. "I think we had
four players on our defensive side competing tonight and that's not enough.
Whether we are playing back-to-backs, four games or five games, we need to be
competitive. I thought most of our guys didn't compete."
LA hasn't beaten the Hornets since a 100-90 win on Jan. 8, 2007.

Matt Kenseth And Kevin Harvick Favorites To Take NASCAR Nextel Cup Championship
(September 15)—The NASCAR season has hit the homestretch with the opening event on this year’s Chase for the Cup taking place this weekend at the Sylvania 300 at New Hampshire International Speedway. With 10 races remaining to determine the Cup Series champion, leading online sportsbook MySportsbook.com today announced odds on all 10 Chase qualifying drivers capturing the NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship.
One of the largest sportsbook sites on the Internet, MySportsbook.com currently lists the top two drivers in the point standings as the early favorites to win the Nextel Cup. Entering the Chase for the Cup with a slim five-point lead in the point standings, 2003 NASCAR champ Matt Kenseth has been made a slight favorite to win his second Cup at 7/2 betting odds. 2001 Cup Rookie of the Year Kevin Harvick has betting odds listed at 5/2 and four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon is listed at 6/1 to capture the Nextel Cup this year.
Hoping to follow in the footsteps of his legendary father who won six NASCAR titles, Dale Earnhardt Jr. stands at 8/1 to breakthrough with his first Cup victory. Staying with the family theme, MySportsbook.com lists 2005 Rookie of the Year Kyle Busch at 14/1 to succeed big brother Kurt’s 2004 NASCAR title. While Kasey Kahne was the final driver to qualify for the Chase with a third place finish last week, the oddsmakers give him a fighting chance at 10/1 mainly due to several mile-and-a-half tracks remaining on the schedule. Despite going winless on the NASCAR circuit this season, Jeff Burton enters the Chase at 5/1 to capture the Cup title. Meanwhile, rookie Denny Hamlin is 4/1 to win the championship, while veteran driver Mark Martin enters the Chase for the Cup as a 15/1 long shot to win his first NASCAR title in his 24th and final season.
MySportsbook.com will offer comprehensive Nascar betting lines on every race remaining on the Nextel Cup series including driver match-ups, props and odds to win each race. For a complete list of NASCAR odds, please visit www.MySportsbook.com.
