Basketball Betting Lines

03/02/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The NBA's most improved team, the Oklahoma City Thunder hope to finish up a three-game homestand in perfect fashion tonight when they welcome the Sacramento Kings to Ford Center.

The Thunder improved to 2-0 on their residency Sunday when the electrifying Kevin Durant scored 29 points to lead Oklahoma City to a 119-99 rout over the Toronto Raptors.

Russell Westbrook dished out 10 assists to go with 14 points, while Jeff Green and Nenad Krstic chipped in 20 and 16 points, respectively, for the Thunder, who have won 11 of 13 overall. Serge Ibaka ended with 13 points and 10 rebounds for the victors.

"[Ibaka] has been playing very well. He's starting to get it on both ends of the floor," Durant, who is second leading scorer in the NBA at 29.7 ppg, said.

The Kings, who are kicking off a a three-game road trip tonight, earned their second straight win on Sunday when rookie star Tyreke Evans posted a game-high 22 points to lead Sacramento in a 97-92 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers at Arco Arena.

Carl Landry went for 18 points and eight rebounds, while Spencer Hawes added 16 and nine for Sacramento, which has won the two straight on the heels of a five-game slide.

"My attitude has always been to play hard and try to go out there and get a win," Evans said. "Ever since I was young I've been hitting big shots, so to me it's fun to go in there and try to make the big play."

Sacramento, which hasn't won three straight since a four-game run from Nov. 25-Dec. 2, will also visit Houston and Dallas on its current trek.

The Kings snapped a three-game skid to the Thunder with a 101-98 win in Sacramento back on Nov. 10.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect

LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet.

Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots.

Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4.
