Basketball Betting Lines
02/04/2012 -
Denver, CO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Andrew Bynum had 22 points, 10 rebounds and
three blocks, helping the Los Angeles Lakers hold off the Denver Nuggets,
93-89.
Kobe Bryant added 20 points and nine assists for the Lakers, who have won
three in a row. Bryant shot just 7-of-23 from the floor, including a 1-of-4
performance from beyond the arc.
Pau Gasol donated 13 points and 17 boards for Los Angeles, which improved to
3-7 on the road this season. Andrew Goudelock also had 13 points.
Al Harrington ended with 24 points and eight rebounds for the Nuggets, who
have lost three of four. Andre Miller and Ty Lawson chipped in with 16 and 14
points, respectively.
To make matters worse, Denver lost starting center Timofey Mozgov to a
sprained left ankle. With about 10 minutes to go in the third quarter,
Mozgov came down awkwardly on his left ankle after making a layup.
He was not able to put pressure on his left foot, but X-rays came back
negative.
Bryant's three-pointer with 7:23 to play gave the Lakers an 80-72 lead.
But Denver responded with an 11-4 run to make things interesting down the
stretch. Harrington made a pair of three-pointers around Bynum's slam to cut
the gap to 84-83 with 4:23 left.
Metta World Peace made a much-needed trey from the corner to give the Lakers
an 87-83 margin.
Still ahead by four moments later, Bryant turned the ball over. Lawson failed
to make a three-pointer at the other end.
Denver was still alive after Los Angeles missed three shots. Nene's layup cut
the gap to 89-87 with 1:40 to go.
Derek Fisher came up with a big shot at the other end, making a 21-foot shot
from the corner.
Lawson's steal of Gasol led to Nene's slam with 28.6 seconds remaining, making
it 91-89.
At the other end, Bryant found Bynum open under the hoop. But instead of going
up strong, Bynum tried for a layup. Nene was able to block the shot. Upon
review, it was determined the ball went out off Los Angeles.
Harrington's three-pointer bounced off the rim in the final second. Matt
Barnes made two free throws with 0.2 seconds left to seal the win for the
Lakers.
Los Angeles led by as many as 11 in the first half and took a 44-41 lead into
the locker room.
Denver started the second half on an 8-2 surge to take the lead. But the
Lakers stormed right back and led for the remainder of the third period. It
was a 72-68 game heading to the fourth.

MySportsbook.com refunds all bets on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay from NFL week one.
(September 14) – 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.
Sportsbook 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 sports 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.
