Magic, Hornets collide in Orlando

Basketball Betting Lines

02/08/2010 - (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.

Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament odds  
As of February 9, MySportsbook.com has released its coveted 2007 Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament betting odds. “March Madness betting ” only a month away, the top ranked Florida Gators are favorite at 7-2 to win it all. The defending champs have not disappointed at all this season and currently have a 22-2 record and are undefeated (9-0) in SEC play. The Gators’ thrive off of their extremely balanced, experienced and versatile attack. All five starters started in last seasons National Championship game. What is most impressive with this group is their balance; the five starters all average between 10.7 and 13.6 PPG. The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.

Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country. A concern for the Tar Heels might be inexperience. Of their top four scorers/ minute earners, three are freshmen and the other is a sophomore. The rest of the regular season, the Tar Heels play only one team that is currently ranked (Duke). Their remaining opponents do combine for an impressive 107-58 record though.

Other teams that the MySportsbook.com members seem to believe will win it all include the west coasts’ top team #2 UCLA (6-1), #3 OSU behind man-child Greg Oden (8-1), and #4 Wisconsin (10-1) behind their defense which has given up 70+ points only three times all season.
