Sixers host Raptors in matinee affair

Basketball Betting Lines

04/03/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Toronto has eight games remaining to state its case for the eighth and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. The Raptors kick off that key stretch this afternoon in the City of Brotherly Love against a moribund Philadelphia 76ers team.

Toronto is currently 1 1/2 games ahead of Chicago for the final spot in the East and is coming off its second straight win, a 114-92 rout of the Los Angeles Clippers north of the border on Wednesday.

Chris Bosh racked up a double-double with 34 points and 11 rebounds to pace the Raptors in that one. The All-Star netted 15 in the third quarter to give Toronto a nice cushion en route to the victory.

"We knew coming out in the second half what we needed to do to make adjustments," said Bosh. "We just took away what the coaches said at halftime and did what they wanted us to. We have to remember to come out from the start and play hard."

Andrea Bargnani finished with 21 points and eight rebounds and Sonny Weems added 17 points on 8-of-8 from the floor.

The Sixers, meanwhile, continue to limp toward the finish line and a spot in the NBA Draft Lottery.

Philadelphia suffered its second straight blowout loss in Charlotte on Wednesday when Gerald Wallace finished with game-highs of 24 points and 12 rebounds, as the Bobcats had little trouble disposing of the 76ers, 103-84.

Andre Iguodala netted 14 points, while Jason Kapono and Marreese Speights both had 13 for the Sixers, who were outscored at the free throw line, 27-5, in their 16th loss in 20 games.

"I thought we played with a lot of emotion," Philadelphia head coach Eddie Jordan. "We just didn't make plays or enough shots."

The Sixers were without guard Lou Williams and forwards Thaddeus Young and Rodney Carney in Charlotte and dressed only nine players. Williams and Carney are questionable for today, while Young will miss the game. Athletic center Sammy Dalembert is probable for Saturday with a sore hip.

The team is monitoring the minutes of Iguodala, who is suffering from a painful case of plantar fasciitis in his right foot. Iguodala is expected to play versus the Raptors.

Philadelphia snapped a three-game skid in the series with a 114-101 win in Toronto on March 7.

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP

With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at MySportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.

This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.

There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.
