Basketball Betting Lines

05/05/2010 - Phoenix, AZ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Amare Stoudemire scored 13 of his 23 points in the second half and totaled 11 rebounds, and the Phoenix Suns held off the Spurs, 110-102, in Game 2 of their Western Conference semifinal series.

Jason Richardson and Steve Nash each scored 19 points, while Grant Hill tallied 18 for the Suns, who won the opener, 111-102, Monday night. Hill and Stoudemire each had eight points in the final quarter, a period in which the Suns made 11-of-13 foul shots.

Tim Duncan ended with 29 points and 10 rebounds, while Tony Parker came off the bench for 20 points and seven assists for the Spurs. Richard Jefferson had 18 points and 10 rebounds.

The series shifts to San Antonio for Game 3 Friday.

The Suns wore jerseys that said "Los Suns" partly in celebration of Cinco de Mayo, but also to protest against Arizona's new controversial immigration law. The law requires police to question people about their immigration status if there's a reason to suspect they are in the country illegally. On a related note, Rev. Al Sharpton led a rally past the US Airways Center to the State Capitol to protest the law.

Brandon Roy Favorite to Win 2007 NBA Rookie of the Year

Portland TrailBlazer’s guard, Brandon Roy, is MySportsbook.com’s overwhelming favorite to win the NBA Rookie of the Year odds.

Despite missing 20 games due to an injury earlier this season, Roy has definitely put up the best numbers of his 1st year peers. In 32 games, Roy is averaging 15.3 PPG, 4.2 boards and 3.5 assists in over 33 minutes of play per game. While most rookies breakdown as the season progresses (see Morrison), Roy is only getting stronger as his playing time and scoring average has increased each month.

With 30 or so games left in the regular season, Roy isn’t a lock for the award by any means. Other rookies are putting together some pretty impressive campaigns and a few could give Roy a run for the award with increased playing time. Heading the list is first pick, Andrea Bargnani of the Toronto Raptors. Even though he has started only two games all season, Bargnani is averaging 10.3 PPPG while shooting 35% from deep.

Randy Foye of the Minnesota Timberwolves could be set to give Roy the best competition NBA Rookie of the Year betting lines. With the benching of Mike James, Foye looks like he could be the starter in the T-Wolves backcourt for the rest of the season. So far, Foye has averaged 9 PPG and 2.4 assists in just under 21 minutes per game. With his new role of starter, Foye’s numbers will definitely increase. In his first game as the new starting guard this past Sunday, Foye had 10 points; five rebounds and 8 assists. More importantly, he logged 34 minutes of playing time; his third highest run of the season.

Adam Morrison, of the Charlotte Bobcats, was the favorite early on in the season after averaging 15+ PPG through the first month of the season. Ever since his torrid start, Morrison’s point production has declined each month. This really isn’t surprising, considering at 6’8” he only weighs 205 lbs. Obviously he will need to hit the weights big time during the off-season in order to keep from breaking down in the future.
