NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

03/07/2010 - East Lansing, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Raymar Morgan led all scorers with 22 points and grabbed 10 rebounds, as 11th-ranked Michigan State claimed a share of the Big Ten regular-season title with a 64-48 rout of conference rival Michigan at the Breslin Center.

Kalin Lucas and Delvin Roe each finished with 10 points for Michigan State (24-7, 14-4 Big Ten), which split the title with Purdue and Ohio State but will be the third seed in the upcoming Big Ten Tournament due to tiebreakers. The Spartans, who shot 45.3 percent from the field, have won three straight and five of their last six after a three-game slide.

Zack Gibson ended with a team-best 10 points for Michigan (14-16, 7-11), which have dropped four of its last five. DeShawn Sims had nine points and nine rebounds in defeat.

Michigan State took the suspense out of this one right from the start, as Morgan's layup put the Spartans ahead 25-8 with 8:23 left in the first half. Layups by Lucas and Roe and a three-point play from Morgan closed the stanza to give the hosts a 32-14 advantage heading into the locker room.

The Spartans then scored the first 10 points to start the second half and go up by an insurmountable 42-14 score. MSU would hold a double-digit lead for the remainder of the contest.

Game Notes

Despite the loss, Michigan still owns a 91-74 advantage in the all-time series with Michigan State, but the Spartans have won 18 of the last 21 meetings, including 11 straight in East Lansing...The Wolverines shot 34.9 percent from the field and only 4-of-21 from three-point range...MSU improved to 15-2 at home this season.

MySportsbook.com: NBA Championship Odds

With the playoffs about two months away, the top two teams in the Western Conference are the clear cut leaders to win the NBA Championship. The Dallas Mavericks have the best record in the NBA (44-9) and have been absolutely scorching since the second week of the season.  What makes the Mavs’ record more impressive is the fact that they dropped their first four games of the season.  Currently they have won 17 out of their last 18 and are MySportsbook.com’s favorite (2-1) to win it all.  Right behind the Mavs are the Pacific leading Phoenix Suns (39-13).  Last season, the Suns lost in the Conference Finals to non-other then the Mavericks four games to two.  Of course the Suns were without center Amare Stoudemire who has is averaging 19.9 PPG and 9.5 RPG since coming back from his knee injury.  Unlike the Mavs, the Suns have struggled a bit lately having lost their last three and four out of their last seven.  Of course the main reason for their three straight loses is due to the absence of two time MVP Steve Nash, who is out with a shoulder injury.  Heads-up, the Mavs have beaten the Suns in both of their meetings this season.

In the Eastern Conference, the Pistons (32-19) are the favorites to win it all at 6-1. The addition of Chris Webber seems to have been a good move for the Pistons.  Since coming over from the 76ers, Webber has averaged 13.1 PPG and 7.3 RPG and the Pistons are 11-4.  Even though the defending champion Heat are currently on the playoff making cusp, they are the Eastern Conference team that is getting the most action to win it all (9-1).  The fact that Shaquille O’Neal is back in the starting lineup after missing 39 games probably has something to do with this.  No doubt, Shaq makes a difference when in the lineup as their winning six out of their last seven would indicate.
