Nuggets welcome Lakers to Pepsi Center
Basketball Betting Lines
11/01/2008 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Los Angeles Lakers will go for their third straight win
to start the season Saturday in Denver versus the Nuggets.
Kobe Bryant had 16 points and pulled down eight rebounds, as the Lakers
rolled over the Los Angels Clippers, 117-79, at the Staples Center on
Wednesday.
Derek Fisher scored 15 points, while center Andrew Bynum tallied 12 points and
nine boards for the Lakers, who opened the 2008-09 campaign on Tuesday with a
96-76 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers.
Bynum then celebrated the opening day win by inking a multi-year contract
extension Thursday. Terms of the deal weren't announced by the team, but the
Los Angeles Times reported it's a four-year deal worth $57.4 million that will
keep the seven-foot big man with the club through the 2012-13 campaign.
The Nuggets earned a tough win on the road Friday after Allen Iverson
scored 25 points, including nine in overtime, as the team overcame an 18-point
halftime deficit to beat the Los Angeles Clippers, 113-103, at Staples
Center.
Nene added 22 points and grabbed 11 rebounds for the Nuggets, who bounced back
from a season-opening loss at Utah.
J.R. Smith chipped in 17 points and 10 boards off the bench, while Kenyon
Martin tallied 13 points to match his 13 rebounds.
The Lakers swept the season series with Denver last season, winning all three
matchups. In 2006-07, however, the Nuggets won three of the four games between
the two teams.

Stanley Cup betting
New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.
The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.
MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.
Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
