Basketball Betting Lines

03/12/2010 - Charlotte, NC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Stephen Jackson poured in 14 of his 24 points in the fourth quarter while dishing out six assists, as the Charlotte Bobcats continued their stellar play at home with a 106-98 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers.

The Bobcats have won four in a row as the host and improved to 24-8 at Time Warner Cable Arena, setting a franchise record for home victories in a season.

Gerald Wallace added 17 points and six rebounds before leaving right before halftime with a sprained left ankle. Boris Diaw ended with 16 points and five assists, while Tyson Chandler donated 13 points and nine boards off the bench.

Raymond Felton had a near triple-double with 10 points, 11 assists, and eight rebounds for Charlotte, which has won five in a row for the first time since a six-game tear from January 9-20.

Baron Davis finished with 24 points, seven assists and five steals for the Clippers, who have dropped nine straight on the road to fall to 7-27 as the guest this season.

Rasual Butler chipped in 18 points, while Travis Outlaw and Drew Gooden each tallied 16 points. Chris Kaman added 13 points and 11 boards for Los Angeles, which has lost six in a row.

The Bobcats scored the final eight points of the first quarter to take a 31-23 lead.

Ahead 44-39 near the midway point of the second, Charlotte closed the half on a 17-6 run to create some breathing room. With 1.5 seconds remaining, Wallace stole the ball from Davis and went racing the other way for a layup. Davis pushed Wallace from behind on the attempted layup and was called for a flagrant foul type 1. Wallace sprained his left ankle on the play, but was able to make 1-of-2 from the line to give the Bobcats a 61-45 margin at the break.

Charlotte led by as many as 18 in the third and took an 80-68 advantage into the fourth.

Ahead 88-79 with eight minutes to go in the fourth, the Bobcats went on a brief 7-2 flurry. Jackson's trey had Charlotte in front 95-81 with five minutes to play.

The Clippers never got closer than seven the remainder of the way.

March Madness odds and printable March Madness brackets

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship.  Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92.  After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points.  Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1.  Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years.  With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed.  UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern.  Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier.  OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak.  Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four.  It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta.  But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
