Basketball Betting Lines
11/20/2008 -
Salt Lake City, UT (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - C.J. Miles scored 25 points to lead Utah
to a 105-94 comeback win over the Milwaukee Bucks, as the Jazz won their 14th
straight home game going back to last season.
Carlos Boozer had 20 points and 11 rebounds, but left the game in the fourth
quarter with a strained left quad tendon. Ronnie Price and Andrei Kirilenko
each had 16 points for the Jazz, who beat Milwaukee for the eighth straight
time. Kirilenko also had seven rebounds, five steals and four blocks.
Ronnie Brewer ended with 12 points for the Jazz, winners of back-to-back games
overall since a three-game skid.
Richard Jefferson scored 25 points, and Andrew Bogut contributed 16 points and
a season-high 20 rebounds for the Bucks, who lost their third straight
contest.
Ramon Sessions sank a layup for a 76-70 Milwaukee lead in the final minute of
the third, but the Jazz had the final two buckets of the quarter - on a Brewer
jam and a Boozer layup.
The Jazz then used a 13-3 run during the fourth quarter to take control.
Austin Croshere hit a three-pointer for an 83-82 Milwaukee edge with nearly
eight minutes left, but then came the game-changing flurry, started by a pair
of Boozer layups and finished by a Miles three-ball with 2:34 remaining for
95-86 difference.
Boozer was hurt during the final quarter while going up for a rebound. His
knee buckled and Boozer was then lifted for Mehmet Okur. Boozer will have an
MRI on Thursday.
Utah is already shorthanded with injuries to guards Deron Williams (ankle) and
Brevin Knight (groin), and center Jarron Collins (elbow).
Utah led 26-16 after one quarter and pushed that margin to 45-30 midway
through the second, but the Bucks finished the half on a 23-6 spurt to grab a
two-point edge.
Milwaukee continued to pull away early in the third, surging to a double-digit
advantage at 66-56 on a pair of Bogut free throws with nearly eight minutes
left in the period.

MySportsbook.com refunds all bets on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay from NFL week one.
(September 14, 2007) – Week one of NFL action saw three teams go scoreless for the first time since 1977. Another four were unable to get a touchdown and almost half of the underdogs covered the spread. Those three teams saved bettors at MySportsbook.com from losing out completely, thanks to the company’s unique NFL Shutout Rule -- which ensures that if the team you backed goes scoreless, your wager is refunded.
MySportsbook.com refunded tens of thousands of dollars to customers who bet on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay, the three teams that stunk up the field so badly that their fans and backers never had a chance to get up from their couches and cheer. In the spirit of the low scoring start to the season, odds makers at the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino have set odds on how many total shutouts there will be this season.
MySportsbook.com has posted updated betting lines for week two of the season. Ben Roethlisberger’s health status is still questionable, so Willie Parker will try to lead Pittsburgh again as they travel to Jacksonville as a one point favorite. After beating up on his little brother last week, Peyton Manning will look to lead the Colts to victory against Houston. Indianapolis is a whopping 13.5 favorite in the match-up.
Seattle, last year’s highest scoring team, showed the power of their defense with their gritty 9-6 win in Motown over the ravenous Lions. They take their act back home to the comforts of Qwest Field where they will face the resurgent Arizona Cardinals. The Seahawks are favored by a touchdown.
