Bucks topple Cavs; James rests

Basketball Betting Lines

03/07/2010 - Milwaukee, WI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Brandon Jennings led five Milwaukee players in double figures with 25 points on 5-of-7 from beyond the arc, as the Bucks took down the Cleveland Cavaliers, minus LeBron James, 92-85, at the Bradley Center.

James was given the night off to rest and the Bucks took advantage by winning for the ninth time in 10 games.

Carlos Delfino added 16 points and a career-high 13 rebounds, while Luc Mbah a Moute tallied 10 points and 11 boards for the Bucks, who have won three in a row. Andrew Bogut added 15 points and nine boards.

Antawn Jamison led all scorers with 30 along with 11 rebounds, and Delonte West scored 27 for the Cavaliers, who lost for the first time in seven outings.

"I think defensively we did pretty well," Jamison said. "We definitely missed some (opportunities) on the offensive end. The way (James) is able to create easy opportunities for his teammates, it took us awhile to get things going in the right direction."

Milwaukee started the final frame up 69-61 and traded baskets with the Cavs before extending the margin to 15 at 80-65 on a Jennings three-pointer with 7:38 to go. The Cavaliers would cut the deficit to eight multiple times, with the last coming on a West hook shot with 1:23 remaining, but the Bucks kept trading baskets before allowing a Danny Green triple to end the game.

"When we had to get stops and a rebound, we did," said Bucks coach Scott Skiles. "We had a lot of guys chipping in."

The Bucks got off to an 8-2 run to start the night as Mbah a Moute scored six of the team's first eight points. Milwaukee's first quarter lead extended to 11 at 25-14, when Ersan Ilyasova drained a bucket with less than a minute left.

Cleveland came out strong in the second, mounting a 19-6 run that ended with the Cavaliers maintaining a 33-31 lead with 6:35 left. Jamison and West combined for all of the 19 points in the stretch. The Bucks took back the lead at 39-37 after a Delfino three-pointer, but Mo Williams drained a jumper with five seconds left to give Cleveland a 42-41 halftime lead.

In the third, Milwaukee jumped out to a 13-point advantage at 58-45 on a Jennings jumper, but finished the quarter leading by eight as Jamison scored eight points in the final three plus minutes to slightly trim the deficit to eight.

Game Notes

The Bucks are 15-4 in their last 19 games...Cleveland dropped to 23-7 in 2010...The Cavs converted on just 7-of-22 three-pointers.

Matt Kenseth And Kevin Harvick Favorites To Take NASCAR Nextel Cup Championship

(September 15)—The NASCAR season has hit the homestretch with the opening event on this year’s Chase for the Cup taking place this weekend at the Sylvania 300 at New Hampshire International Speedway. With 10 races remaining to determine the Cup Series champion, leading online sportsbook MySportsbook.com today announced odds on all 10 Chase qualifying drivers capturing the NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship.

One of the largest sportsbook sites on the Internet, MySportsbook.com currently lists the top two drivers in the point standings as the early favorites to win the Nextel Cup. Entering the Chase for the Cup with a slim five-point lead in the point standings, 2003 NASCAR champ Matt Kenseth has been made a slight favorite to win his second Cup at 7/2 betting odds. 2001 Cup Rookie of the Year Kevin Harvick has betting odds listed at 5/2 and four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon is listed at 6/1 to capture the Nextel Cup this year.

Hoping to follow in the footsteps of his legendary father who won six NASCAR titles, Dale Earnhardt Jr. stands at 8/1 to breakthrough with his first Cup victory. Staying with the family theme, MySportsbook.com lists 2005 Rookie of the Year Kyle Busch at 14/1 to succeed big brother Kurt’s 2004 NASCAR title. While Kasey Kahne was the final driver to qualify for the Chase with a third place finish last week, the oddsmakers give him a fighting chance at 10/1 mainly due to several mile-and-a-half tracks remaining on the schedule. Despite going winless on the NASCAR circuit this season, Jeff Burton enters the Chase at 5/1 to capture the Cup title. Meanwhile, rookie Denny Hamlin is 4/1 to win the championship, while veteran driver Mark Martin enters the Chase for the Cup as a 15/1 long shot to win his first NASCAR title in his 24th and final season.

MySportsbook.com will offer comprehensive Nascar betting lines on every race remaining on the Nextel Cup series including driver match-ups, props and odds to win each race. For a complete list of NASCAR odds, please visit www.MySportsbook.com.
