Basketball Betting Lines
06/30/2009 - Indianapolis, IN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Indiana Pacers extended qualifying offers to guard Jarrett Jack and forward Josh McRoberts on Tuesday, making them both restricted free agents come July 1.
After three productive seasons in Portland, Jack performed well in his first year with the Pacers in 2008-09, averaging career-highs of 13.1 points and 3.4 assists while playing in all 82 games.
Roberts, in his second year in the league, appeared in 33 games last season, logging 8 1/2 minutes while putting up 2.4 points and 2.2 rebounds a game.
Guard Travis Diener, who has averaged 5.0 points and 2.5 assists in four seasons in the NBA, will also remain with the team next season after choosing not to opt out of his contract.
The club also announced they have not picked up the option on forward Marquis Daniels, making him an unrestricted free agent. Daniels was fifth on the Pacers in points (13.6) and fourth in rebounds (4.6) last year but will now seek a new home after three seasons in Indiana.

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.
The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.
MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.
Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
