Basketball Betting Lines

02/21/2007 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Philadelphia 76ers conclude their seven-game homestand tonight when they welcome the Atlantic Division rival New York Knicks to the Wachovia Center.

The Sixers fell to 2-4 on their stand before the All-Star break when they were defeated by the Washington Wizards, 92-85, last Wednesday. Kyle Korver led the 76ers with 18 points off the bench, while Andre Iguodala scored 14 points, handed out 13 helpers and grabbed eight rebounds.

Andre Miller and Rodney Carney each contributed 13 points and Samuel Dalembert donated 11 points with 17 rebounds as Philadelphia dropped its third straight contest.

Philadelphia is currently 9-15 at home this year, but will play its next two tilts on the road, starting with a game in Charlotte on Friday.

The Knicks were just in action on Tuesday when they recorded a 100-94 win over Orlando behind 20 points each by Jamal Crawford and Eddy Curry.

Quentin Richardson added 15 points and David Lee had 14 points and 16 boards for the Knicks, who have won four of their last six. Stephon Marbury also had 14 points.

The Knicks, who are 10-17 on the road this season, now find themselves just three games out of a playoff spot. The team will return home to host Milwaukee on Friday.

The teams have split two meetings so far this season. Philadelphia won the first matchup on December 23 before the Knicks snapped a four-game series losing streak with a 106-99 win on January 10.

The 76ers have won four in a row at home against the Knicks.

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.

Just because it is the All-Star break doesn’t mean that you can’t bet on NBA hoops this weekend.  Be sure to log onto MySportsbook.com to bet on who you think will cut down the nets this July.
