Magic, Hornets collide in OrlandoBasketball Betting Lines02/08/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Orlando Magic hope to carry the momentum from their big win at Boston into tonight's home tilt versus the New Orleans Hornets at Amway Arena. Orlando posted a 96-89 triumph over the Celtics on Sunday at TD Garden, as Vince Carter posted 20 points and Dwight Howard finished with 16 points and 13 rebounds for the Southeast Division-leading Magic, who battled back from an 11-point halftime deficit. "I think we just came out with a lot of intensity. I was upset about how we played in the first half, it wasn't as well as we wanted to," Howard said. "We came out in the second half with a lot of energy, defensively moved our feet, we were talking more and that's what got us the big lead." Jameer Nelson had 15 points and Rashard Lewis netted 14 in the win, Orlando's eighth in its last 10 tries. The Magic will put its 19-5 home mark to the test Monday night and are one game ahead of Atlanta in the division standings. New Orleans will shoot for its fifth straight win on the road this evening and ended a three-game losing streak with a 104-99 triumph at Charlotte on Saturday. Rookie Darren Collison, filling in for injured All-Star guard Chris Paul, recorded a team-high 24 points and four assists, while David West scored 21 points and Peja Stojakovic contributed 18 for New Orleans, which avoided a season-high fourth straight loss. Collison is averaging 15.5 points, 7.7 assists and 3.4 rebounds per game in 13 games as a starter. He has been a big lift since Paul underwent left knee surgery and will be out a minimum of four weeks. "This [win] was needed bad especially after those losses at home," said Collison, who is averaging 16.6 points and 9.8 assists in five starts since Paul went down. "We needed to come back and have a victory today. We've got two games before the break and have to finish strong." Emeka Okafor posted 16 points and seven rebounds in the win. On the injury front for New Orleans, guard Marcus Thornton (back) is questionable for Monday. New Orleans and Orlando are meeting for the first time this season, and have split the past eight matchups.

2007 NFL Football Betting Preview“You play to win the game!” Those are the words of notoriously intense head coach Herman Edwards. Unfortunately, from a bettors’ perspective, most coaches don’t feel that way about the NFL preseason. August is a time to evaluate young players, finalize the depth chart and pray your star players stay healthy. The trick to making money during the exhibition schedule is identifying coaches – like Edwards – who can’t stand losing even when there's nothing on the line. The New York Jets betting won 15 of 21 preseason games and went 14-7 against the spread (ATS) during Edwards’s five-year tenure with the club. In his first season as the Kansas City Chiefs field boss, the team improved from 0-4 to 2-2. Identifying win-a-holics like Edwards is a good start if you plan betting the preseason – even though most say you shouldn’t ... but what the hell do they know anyway? Here’s a brief rundown of two teams that have a habit of winning during the second-stringers’ season, and another club that has a good chance of exceeding this year. Playing in the media hub of North America can be stressful but the press can’t write anything negative about the way Tom Coughlin’s boys play in the preseason. The Giants won and covered all four games last summer, improving their record to 7-1 both straight up (SU) and against the spread over the last two years. Coughlin has shown he’s not afraid to give his starters more time in the second preseason game than most of his colleagues, no doubt one of the reasons his team has been so dominant. Bettors can count on America’s team early on. The Cowboys are 14-6 both SU and ATS since 2002 in warm-up contests. Former coach Bill Parcells, the coach of the team the last four years, has an intimidating, in-your-face presence – surely a reason Dallas has had so much early success. The Big Tuna won’t be strolling the sidelines with looks of disgust, but new coach Wade Phillips will be anxious to make a good first impression for owner Jerry Jones. Dallas plays the Indianapolis Colts and the Denver Broncos before things get serious. They then face the Houston Texans in their third contest (the game starters see most game time) and finish off with the Minnesota Vikings. Expect a Dallas team able to walk away with another 3-1 preseason record. This team scored a league-worst 12 offensive touchdowns last season, so the rookies and veterans each have something to prove. There’s a bounty of first-unit jobs up for grabs and plenty of bodies competing for those slots. First-time head coach Lane Kiffin will be eager to impress an owner who employs the philosophy, “Just win, baby!” The 32-year-old Kiffin has to command respect from a locker room full of players older than him. All of these factors should lead to purpose in preseason. Don’t forget: before playing like a team that belonged in NFL Europe, Oakland went 4-1 (both SU and ATS) in exhibition games.
