Basketball Betting Lines
02/03/2012 -
Los Angeles, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Danilo Gallinari went 5-of-5 from behind
the arc and scored 21 points, and the Denver Nuggets silenced the streaking
Clippers, 112-91 at Staples Center.
Los Angeles came in 10-2 at home and was riding a four-game winning steak that
featured a win in Denver on Sunday. The Nuggets avenged that setback
emphatically, taking control by outscoring the Clippers by 32 points over the
second and third quarters.
"In the middle of the second quarter we started to be more aggressive,"
Gallinari said. "We were able to win the game in the third quarter."
Ty Lawson finished with 18 points and six assists, and Arron Afflalo chipped
in 15 points for the victors.
Blake Griffin paced LA with 18 points, while Chris Paul logged 15 points and
nine assists in defeat.
The Clippers ended the first quarter on a 14-2 run to take a 32-19 advantage,
but the second and third frames were dominated by the Nuggets.
Gallinari scored 10 points in the second quarter, and Denver netted 10 second-
chance points in the frame to erase its 13-point deficit.
The Nuggets were on top at the break, 54-51, and Gallinari opened the third
quarter with a pair of three-pointers.
Paul answered with a trey of his own, but Denver scored on its next five
possessions en route to a 10-2 run that pushed its lead to 70-56.
Al Harrington drained two three-pointers in the final minute for an 86-67
cushion, and the Clippers emptied their bench in the fourth quarter.
"We played alright for the first quarter and a half, and then the floodgates
opened up," Clippers head coach Vinny Del Negro said. "Our energy wasn't
there, we got ourebounded and we didn't manage the game well in any aspects."

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.
