'Wolves acquire veteran forward F Howard

Basketball Betting Lines

06/14/2007 - Minneapolis, MN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Minnesota Timberwolves acquired forward Juwan Howard from the Houston Rockets for guard Mike James and forward Justin Reed on Thursday.

Howard, a 6-foot-9 forward, averaged 9.7 points and 5.9 rebounds in 80 games with the Rockets last season and finished the year with nine double-doubles.

For his career, Howard has appeared in 951 games, averaging 16.1 points and 7.1 rebounds in stints with Washington, Dallas, Denver, Orlando and Houston.

"Juwan is a veteran low-post player who is a proven scorer and rebounder," said Timberwolves vice president of basketball operations Kevin McHale. "He will add needed depth to our front court, and with this move we are balancing out our roster. Juwan also provides a solid locker room presence. We wish both Mike and Justin the best in Houston. Both players have been true professionals while with our organization."

James signed as a free agent with the Wolves in 2006 and averaged 10.1 points and 3.6 assists in 2006-07. The 6-foot-2 guard has averaged 11.5 points and four assists in 409 career games.

Meanwhile, Reed tallied 4.4 points and 1.7 rebounds in 81 games over the past two seasons with the Wolves.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting - Super Bowl 2009

Super Bowl 2009, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds and the betting line and figure out where they’ve been and where they are going to go.

MySportsbook.com put up the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds late on Sunday night with the Pittsburgh Steelers favored by 6.5 points and a total betting line at 47.5 points.

Since then, however, the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds have seen a good deal of movement and you’ll want to be on top of where they are likely to move to make sure you get the best line value for the big game.

Since opening, the Super Bowl 2009 betting lines went to Steelers -7 in the span of roughly 3 hours but were quickly bought back down just minutes later to 6.5 again.

After that is took about 5-6 more hours before the betting line went back to -7 where it has sat for a while now and is likely to remain. The opening betting total of 47.5 was bet down right after the line became available and went to 47 within minutes.

Roughly a day later it has been bet even further down to the 46.5 tally it currently is set at.

Roughly 60% of gamblers seem to be on the Cardinals here so the point spread will be bet down and a 7.5 would not last very long at all with many taking the early 6.5 in hopes of finding a potential middle in the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds.

If you like Arizona and see a 7.5, I’d take it as soon as possible because it’s unlikely to last. For Pittsburgh backers, the -7 might be the best you’ll be able to find but a 6.5 is definitely possible close to game time.

Regarding the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds for the total, most tracked gamblers are already on the over and with those who took the under 47.5 already securing a middle on the over 46.5, the only way I see it moving is back up to 47 so if you like the over, I’d recommend betting now.
