Barbosa, Suns hold off Mayo and the Grizzlies
Basketball Betting Lines
11/11/2008 -
Phoenix, AZ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Leandro Barbosa scored 27 points off the bench,
making rookie O.J. Mayo's scintillating 33-point performance for naught, as
Phoenix staved off Memphis, 107-102, at US Airways Center.
Amare Stoudemire scored 18 points with six rebounds, Steve Nash totaled 12
points and six assists and Boris Diaw added 13 points. Shaquille O'Neal
donated nine points and five rebounds, while new father Raja Bell collected 10
points for Phoenix, which has won five of its last six games.
Phoenix has won nine straight in the series.
Mayo was aided by Rudy Gay's 20 points and Marc Gasol's 15 points. Gay and
Darrell Arthur each grabbed seven rebounds, while the rookie out of Kansas,
Arthur, also scored 10 points.
The Grizzlies tied the game at 100-100 on Mayo's layup with 2:12 to play, and
Gay's tenacity allowed him to slam home his own wild miss for a two-point edge
with 1:30 on the clock.
Barbosa hit the big shot at the big time, planting himself in the left corner
and draining a three-pointer for the 103-102 advantage with 43.8 ticks left.
Gasol committed a turnover and Nash made both free throws with 18.6 seconds
remaining, and Mayo's last look at a tie was off the mark with approximately
six ticks left in regulation.
Nash made two more free throws, and Phoenix slipped out victorious.
The game was tied 19-19 after one stanza and knotted at 44-44 after 24
minutes. Phoenix then made its big move in the third period.
After Mayo's three gave Memphis a 51-50 edge, the Suns embarked on an 18-4
stretch to take a 13-point advantage. Three straight triples by Bell, Diaw and
Nash capped the march with 4:33 on the clock.
Diaw's layup moments later extended the lead to 72-57, and Phoenix led 82-70
after three quarters.

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.
