Bulls welcome Warriors to Windy City

Basketball Betting Lines

02/28/2007 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Chicago is seeing its chances at a division title slipping away. The Bulls will try to rebound tonight when they host the Golden State Warriors at the United Center.

Chicago has lost two straight, including Monday's 94-87 setback to Orlando, and is now six games behind Detroit for the top spot in the Central Division. The Bulls are third place in the standings and fifth overall in the East.

Ben Gordon registered 32 points against Orlando for the Bulls, who opened up a three-game homestand against the Magic. Luol Deng added 23 points, six rebounds, six steals and six assists in the loss.

Chicago will conclude its brief stand on Friday against the Hornets and is a conference-best 22-8 as the host this season.

While Golden State has won its last two meetings with the Bulls, including a 123-121 overtime win at home on February 9, Chicago has won five in a row over the Warriors at the United Center.

Golden State kicked off a five-game road swing in Milwaukee on Tuesday and fell by a 122-101 score.

Monta Ellis led six Warriors in double figures with 17 points and Al Harrington donated 15 points in the loss. Kelenna Azubuike tallied 14 points in defeat for the Warriors, who have dropped three in a row.

The team played without guard Stephen Jackson, who missed the game because of a small fracture in his left big toe. He is questionable for tonight's game. Also, Josh Powell was forced out of last night's game with a neck injury after diving for a loose ball.

The Warriors have lost four straight on the road and 11 of the last 13 as the visitor. The club, which is 6-22 on the road this season, will also visit New York, Washington and Detroit on its current swing.

Golden State is fourth overall in the Pacific Division but is just two games out of a playoff spot in the West.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting - Super Bowl 2009

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.
