Basketball Betting Lines
01/24/2010 -
Denver, CO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Carmelo Anthony scored 30 points and pulled down
11 rebounds, and Arron Afflalo keyed Denver's overtime push in a 116-110
decision over the New Orleans Hornets, giving the Nuggets their sixth straight
victory.
The Nuggets had a scare with 1:04 left in OT when Anthony went down hard after
rolling his left ankle, landing on the foot of New Orleans guard Devin Brown.
After a timeout, the All-Star limped back on the court to sink a pair of free
throws, essentially sealing Denver's win, pushing the Nuggets to a 113-106
lead.
Afflalo had six of his season-best 19 points in the extra session and Kenyon
Martin scored 20 to go with 14 rebounds for Denver, which has won seven in a
row at the Pepsi Center. Chauncey Billups ended with 20 points and nine
assists.
Chris Paul had 26 points and 10 assists for New Orleans, which had won its
previous two games. Darius Songaila contributed 20 points and seven rebounds
for the Hornets, who were done in by a 61-37 differential on the glass.
Billups nailed a three-pointer with 24 seconds left in regulation to give the
Nuggets a 101-99 edge, but Paul's driving bank shot tied the game with 18.4
left. Anthony then had a pair of chances to win the game at the end of
regulation, but his shot upon driving into the lane was blocked by Emeka
Okafor. Anthony's short jumper was then off the back of the rim.
Martin's bank shot and Afflalo's three-ball moved the hosts to a 106-101 lead,
and later Paul's three-pointer had the visitors within 108-106 with under two
minutes left.
Afflalo then banged in another three for a 111-106 lead.
The Hornets were up 54-53 at the break, but trailed 79-78 moving to the
fourth.

Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl Odds
Will he or won't he? Now that the Dallas Cowboys have a new head coach in Wade Phillips, the big question will be: Does Terrell Owens stay with the team.
Jerry Jones continues to suggest that Terrell Owens will remain with the team.
"I've said that he's back, he's here, he's under contract," Jones said. "In the interviews I've just been through (to hire a new coach), it was very clear to me how highly he's thought of and how much of an impact he had on our offensive success."
Just to be sure though, Terrell Owens cleared out his locker and removed his name plate.
Terrell Owens was among the Cowboys most productive players this past season, catching 85 passes for 1,180 yards and a league-best 13 touchdowns.
But T.O. is due a $3 million roster bonus in June, then a $5 million salary this season. Cutting him before then would save a lot of money and headaches.
Aside from the questions surrounding Terrell Owens, the oddsmakers at MySportsbook.com have concerns over starting quarterback Tony Romo's state of mind and whether he will remain a starting quarterback. It is also not known how players will adjust to new head coach, Wade Phillips.
