Pistons, Kings collide in Sacramento

Basketball Betting Lines

02/23/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Two of the NBA's poorer teams meet tonight when the Detroit Pistons kick off a four-game road trip in California's capital against the Sacramento Kings.

The Pistons come in off a hard-fought overtime home win over the San Antonio Spurs on Sunday.

Richard Hamilton ended with 27 points in that one, helping Detroit topple San Antonio 109-101 in the extra frame after blowing a double-digit lead with five minutes left in regulation.

Rodney Stuckey chipped in 20 points and six assists, and Ben Gordon had 21 and five for the Pistons, who had lost three of four coming in. Tayshaun Prince tallied 16 points and nine rebounds for the victors.

"We very easily could have hung our heads and a lot of things didn't go the way we (Detroit) wanted them to but they kept their poise," Pistons head coach John Kuester said. "They showed their character and especially in overtime we did a great job of executing and making shots."

The Kings, meanwhile, continue to struggle mightily and are coming in to tonight's contest after a blowout loss in the desert on Sunday. Jason Richardson had 26 points to lead a balanced scoring effort in that one, as Phoenix continued its recent mastery of Sacramento with a 104-88 home victory.

The Suns have bested the Kings for five straight times and in 16 of the past 18 meetings in the series.

Newly acquired Carl Landry posted 18 points and seven rebounds for the Kings, who lost their fourth in a row to close out a three-game road trip. Beno Udrih had 17 points, while Tyreke Evans and Donte Greene scored 16 apiece in the loss.

"Once they got a lead we started dribbling too much and didn't move the ball to the open guys and that's what happens," said Evans. "Basically they were just zoning us and crowding to the ball sides and we didn't make the right decisions."

The Pistons have dropped 10 of their last 12 trips to Sacramento but did win in ARCO Arena last season.

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL lines


Now that the 2008 NFL schedule is finally out, it is only matter-of-course for lines on “Week 1” to follow.  Of course MySportsbook.com is the first to churn out odds for the NFL’s inaugural week for the upcoming season.   Expect a lot of fireworks the first Thursday night of the season as the defending champion Indianapolis Colts face off against the surprise of the 2008 season, the New Orleans Saints.  These teams were ranked #1 and #3 in the NFL respectively a season ago so a high scoring affair could be in order.  As of now, the Colts will be giving 6 points to the Saints; keep in mind the Saints were one of the better road teams last season going 6-3 SU and 7-2 ATS.  The first Monday night of the season will again provide a “double feature”. Coming off a disappointing season, the Cincinnati Bengals will look to get back to playoffs and improve their public image as they take on the AFC North favorite Baltimore Ravens.  The second game features a couple of teams that haven’t had too much success recently but each could make some noise if the NFC is as weak as it was last year as the San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals. The most interesting game of the opening week will feature the NFC champion Bears as they hit the road to take on the NFL’s top team during last year’s regular season, the San Diego Chargers.

Saints +6 @ Colts -6

Falcons @ Vikings (pick ‘em)

Panthers @ Rams (pick ‘em)
