Basketball Betting Lines
11/20/2008 -
Salt Lake City, UT (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - C.J. Miles scored 25 points to lead Utah
to a 105-94 comeback win over the Milwaukee Bucks, as the Jazz won their 14th
straight home game going back to last season.
Carlos Boozer had 20 points and 11 rebounds, but left the game in the fourth
quarter with a strained left quad tendon. Ronnie Price and Andrei Kirilenko
each had 16 points for the Jazz, who beat Milwaukee for the eighth straight
time. Kirilenko also had seven rebounds, five steals and four blocks.
Ronnie Brewer ended with 12 points for the Jazz, winners of back-to-back games
overall since a three-game skid.
Richard Jefferson scored 25 points, and Andrew Bogut contributed 16 points and
a season-high 20 rebounds for the Bucks, who lost their third straight
contest.
Ramon Sessions sank a layup for a 76-70 Milwaukee lead in the final minute of
the third, but the Jazz had the final two buckets of the quarter - on a Brewer
jam and a Boozer layup.
The Jazz then used a 13-3 run during the fourth quarter to take control.
Austin Croshere hit a three-pointer for an 83-82 Milwaukee edge with nearly
eight minutes left, but then came the game-changing flurry, started by a pair
of Boozer layups and finished by a Miles three-ball with 2:34 remaining for
95-86 difference.
Boozer was hurt during the final quarter while going up for a rebound. His
knee buckled and Boozer was then lifted for Mehmet Okur. Boozer will have an
MRI on Thursday.
Utah is already shorthanded with injuries to guards Deron Williams (ankle) and
Brevin Knight (groin), and center Jarron Collins (elbow).
Utah led 26-16 after one quarter and pushed that margin to 45-30 midway
through the second, but the Bucks finished the half on a 23-6 spurt to grab a
two-point edge.
Milwaukee continued to pull away early in the third, surging to a double-digit
advantage at 66-56 on a pair of Bogut free throws with nearly eight minutes
left in the period.

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP
With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at Sportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.
This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.
There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.
