Sixers stop RocketsBasketball Betting Lines02/07/2010 - Houston, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Andre Iguodala ended with 14 points, 10 rebounds and six assists and hit a big three-pointer down the stretch, as the Philadelphia 76ers surprised the Houston Rockets, 102-95, at the Toyota Center. Thaddeus Young netted a team-high 17 points, while Willie Green and Elton Brand chipped in 15 and 13 points, respectively for the Sixers, who have rattled off a season-high four straight wins. Aaron Brooks notched 34 points thanks to a 6-for-11 effort from behind the arc for the Rockets, who had a short two-game winning streak stopped. Kyle Lowry deposited 14 points, and Carl Landry added 13 points and 10 rebounds in the loss. Lowry left the game in the third quarter with a sprained left ankle and he's expected to miss Tuesday's game at Miami. Lowry will be re-evaluated in approximately a week. A Brooks jumper brought the Rockets within 94-91 with under three minutes remaining in regulation, but both he and Shane Battier missed potential tying three-pointers on the next possession. Iguodala answered with a three-ball with 1:37 showing, and the same Houston duo missed from behind the arc the next two times Houston had the ball. After the Sixers were whistled for a five-second violation on an inbounds pass, Battier turned it over with 33.9 seconds left to end the comeback bid. The Sixers led 26-16 late in opening quarter, but a Lowry three-point play and a Chase Budinger make from behind the arc in the final 30 seconds made it a four-point game. The momentum was firmly in Houston's favor thanks to an 18-0 stretch early in the second. Brooks twice hit from distance during the four-minute span, and another Lowry hoop and foul shot gave the Rockets a 42-30 lead midway through the frame. The big quarter had the Rockets on top 57-47 at halftime, but the Sixers stayed close in the third and trailed just 76-70 heading to the final frame. Consecutive buckets from Young followed by a Lou Williams three-pointer tied the game, 79-79, 2 1/2 minutes into the fourth. A Rodney Carney jumper on the next possession gave the visitors the lead, and it was nip-and-tuck from that point on. Game Notes Williams had nine points for Philadelphia, which received a 10-point effort from rookie Jrue Holiday...Philadelphia made 48.6 percent of its shots from the floor, compared the Houston's 41.0 percent shooting effort...Samuel Dalembert grabbed 10 rebounds for the Sixers...Rockets swingman Trevor Ariza was forced to exit the game in the final moments of the fourth quarter with a left hip pointer. He is listed as day-to-day.

March Madness odds and printable March Madness brackets With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.

Online Sportsbook Football BettingLaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP 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.
