Basketball Betting Lines

02/13/2012 - Orlando, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Jason Richardson had 17 points and was one of six Magic players to score in double figures Monday as Orlando took down the Minnesota Timberwolves, 102-89.

Jameer Nelson, J.J. Redick and Hedo Turkoglu finished with 14 points apiece and Ryan Anderson added 13 for the Magic, who have won six of their last eight games.

Dwight Howard scored 11 points to go with seven boards in the victory.

Kevin Love had 19 points and 15 rebounds for Minnesota, which has lost four straight. The Wolves turned the ball over 18 times, leading to 17 Magic points.

The Magic used an early 12-4 run to build a 17-8 advantage midway through the first, but the Wolves fought back and Ricky Rubio's trey with 1.4 seconds left in the period pulled Minnesota within 29-26 after one.

Orlando reestablished its comfortable lead in the second after beginning the quarter on a 12-4 flurry. Earl Clark netted six points during the spurt. The Magic continued to hold a healthy margin for the remainder of the half and took a 55-44 advantage into the locker room.

Love had 10 points and eight rebounds to pace Minnesota in the first half while Orlando nailed 6-of-13 attempts from beyond the arc.

The Magic began the second half on a 14-5 push as Turkoglu's lob to Howard gave Orlando its largest lead of 20, 69-49, midway through the third frame. The hosts took a 79-66 advantage into the final quarter.

Minnesota rallied in the fourth and pulled within eight following a 10-2 run. J.J. Barea and Michael Beasley hit consecutive treys and Derrick Williams made a pair of foul shots to cap the spurt as the Wolves found themselves down 90-82 with 5:47 to play.

But back-to-back three-pointers by Redick and Nelson upped the margin back to double digits, and Orlando cruised the rest of the way.

The 2009 AP NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year odds have been released and Denver Broncos' running back Knowshon Moreno has been made the opening favorite.

Bet NFL Sports Lines

Moreno was selected in the first round of April's NFL draft and is expected to carry the rushing load for the Broncos this season. And with Jay Cutler now in Chicago, Moreno might be expected to be Denver's entire offense.

Betting Lines from sports betting lines have made Moreno a 5/2 favorite to win this year's Offensive Rookie of the Year Award. Fellow running back Chris “Beanie” Wells (Arizona Cardinals) is right behind Moreno at 7/2, while Donald Brown (Indianapolis Colts) and receiver Michael Crabtree (San Francisco 49ers) are 5/1 to win. Quarterbacks Mark Sanchez (New York Jets) and Matthew Stafford (Detroit Lions) are 7/1 and 8/1, respectively.

A couple of players who present some value are Josh Freeman, Shonn Green and Darrius Heyward-Bey.

Freeman needs to beat out Byron Leftwich to become the starting quarterback of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers but if he does, he has a lot or raw talent and could use the weapons around him (i.e. Kellen Winslow Jr. and Antonio Bryant) to be very successful in his first season.

Green enters a crowded backfield in New York, but considering both Thomas Jones and Leon Washington are unhappy about their contract situations and might holdout, the former Iowa product could become the Jets' primary back.

Everyone was shocked when Al Davis took Heyward-Bey with the eighth overall pick in April's draft, but the kid has a tremendous amount of talent and if quarterback JaMarcus Russell takes the next step this year, the former Maryland product could blossom. Plus, Heyward-Bey will be looking to prove the people wrong who said Oakland should have taken Michael Crabtree with the No. 8 pick.

And if you're looking for a deep sleeper, check out Pat White at 30/1. He enters the Miami Dolphins vaunted “Wild Cat” offense and could be a big time playmaker.
