Points Leaves Lead Down Anderson

Basketball Betting Lines

"I mean, defensively that was as good as you can get," said Boston head coach Doc Rivers.

 

Brandon Bass had 19 points and Kevin Garnett scored 14 with 10 rebounds in a winning effort. Boston, which shot a perfect 19-for-19 from the free throw line, last won three in a row during a four-game run from Dec. 30-Jan. 4 this season and hopes to build on its 2-4 road ledger tonight. Garnett is four rebounds short of tying Jerry Lucas for 14th on the all-time rebounds list.

 

Boston is unbeaten in the past three matchups against Orlando, but has lost two straight, nine of 11 and 10 of its last 13 games as the visitor in this series.

 

Ryan Anderson was held scoreless against the Celtics, but bounced with 24 points in Indianapolis.

 

"That's the beauty of this league," said Anderson. "We have back-to-back games and opportunities where we can redeem ourselves...These are important comeback games. That's the way we can play every night."

 

The Magic, who shot 45.8 percent and sank 13-of-32 three-pointers, are in the midst of alternating home and away games over the next six games. Davis and Hedu Turkoglu scored 13 and 11 points, respectively, in the recent win.

 

Milwaukee, WI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - An MRI on Thursday revealed that Milwaukee Bucks center Andrew Bogut suffered a fractured left ankle during Wednesday's game against the Rockets. "The results of the MRI identified a left ankle fracture which will keep Bogut out indefinitely," Milwaukee general manager John Hammond said on the Bucks' Twitter account.

 

Bogut injured the ankle early on against the Rockets while battling for a rebound.

 

For his career, the first overall pick of the 2005 NBA Draft has averaged 12.7 points per game to go along with 9.3 rebounds and 2.3 assists. He has a history of various injuries and has not played a full season since his rookie campaign.

 

The Magic bounced back from Monday's loss to Boston, which saw them register franchise lows in field goals (16) and field goal percentage (24.6), with a 102-83 win over Indiana on Tuesday.

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds

With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best Heisman Trophy odds at 5-2.

Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season.  Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money. 

This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy.  A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.

Current betting odds Heisman trophy are:

Brady Quinn (QB, Notre Dame)
Adrian Peterson (RB, Oklahoma)
Troy Smith (QB, Ohio State)
