Nets add G FarmarBasketball Betting Lines07/11/2010 - East Rutherford, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New Jersey Nets have agreed in principle to a contract with free agent guard Jordan Farmar. Per team policy, terms of the agreement were not released, but the Newark Star-Ledger reports the pact is for three years and $12 million. It hinges on Farmar passing a physical. "Jordan will be an excellent complement to Devin (Harris) in the backcourt," said Nets president Rod Thorn. "He comes to the Nets with championship pedigree, which will prove to be invaluable to his teammates." Farmar was a member of the Lakers' back-to-back NBA championship teams the past two seasons as a valuable contributor off the bench. In 82 regular-season games last season, Farmar averaged 7.2 points, 1.6 rebounds and 1.5 assists over 18 minutes per contest. The 23-year-old shot 37.6 percent from beyond the arc, hitting 86 three-pointers. Farmar added 4.6 points per game and 20 total threes during LA's 23-game march to its second straight title. The UCLA product has career per game averages of 6.9 points, 2.1 assists and 1.8 boards while shooting 35.9 percent on threes over his four-year pro tenure. He's made two starts in 301 career games.

Pro Football Odds : NFC SOUTH BETTING ODDSNFL betting action is back! At MySportsbook, all of the pro football odds are posted for the NFC North. Check out how we see the four teams in this cloudy division stacking up this year in the chase for the playoffs! Green Bay Packers (+125) - With QB Aaron Rodgers leading the offense and DC Dom Capers working his magic on defense, the Packers are a real force to be reckoned with. Virtually nothing changed on this offense for Green Bay from last year to this year, save for the addition of rookie OT Brian Bulaga to the bunch. Expect more huge numbers from the Pack, and a relatively favorable schedule should get them over the hump and into the playoffs once again this season. My NFL Betting Predictions: 11-5, 1st place in NFC North Minnesota Vikings (+130) - There are still too many unknowns about the Vikes this year. There is a huge difference between QB Brett Favre and either Tarvaris Jackson or Sage Rosenfels under center. Plus, is Favre comes back, is he really going to be able to keep his pick total under double digits again? Depth at running back looked like it might have been an issue with RB Chester Taylor fleeing in free agency, but drafting RB Toby Gerhart should pick up the difference. This defense is still suitable, but with a first place schedule, making the playoffs is going to be very tough regardless of whether #4 comes back or not.

Chicago Bears (+350) - The Bears are probably a bit of an overhyped team once again this year.No, we don't think it is plausible for QB Jay Cutler to have as bad of a season as he did last year, and we do think the additions of RB Chester Taylor and DE Julius Peppers are going to help immensely, but there's still something in the water in the Windy City that we aren't so sure about. Maybe Chicago finds its way to .500... but then again, maybe it doesn't. If Favre comes back, Cutler might be the worst quarterback in this division this year. Detroit Lions (+1500) - The Lions are probably once again going to be the whipping boys for the rest of the teams in the NFC North, but they aren't just going to roll over and die once again. There is some real talent amassing on this team offensively, as the combination of QB Matt Stafford, RB Jahvid Best, WR Calvin Johnson, and TE Brandon Pettigrew should put a bunch of points on the board if the offensive line can even remotely hold up. The questions really lie on defense, where it feels like DT Ndamukong Suh is going to be trying to stop opposing teams all by himself. This year should show some marked improvement in the Motor City. The Patriots will make NFL betting fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash. To visit this sportsbook go to MySportsbook.com for all your NFL football betting needs.
