Bobcats on the prowl in Minnesota
Basketball Betting Lines
02/10/2010 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Charlotte Bobcats will hit the road this evening to
face the Minnesota Timberwolves at the Target Center.
Charlotte put the brakes on a three-game losing streak with a 94-92 triumph
versus the Washington Wizards on Tuesday, as Raymond Felton hit the go-ahead
basket with 1.9 seconds remaining and finished with 11 points. Stephen Jackson
added 22 points and Gerald Wallace chipped in 17 and 13 rebounds for the
Bobcats, who have won four of their last seven games.
"We needed this win," Felton said. "Coming off that loss against New Orleans,
that was a tough loss. We needed these last two games going into the All-Star
break. This is a big win for us and we'll try to get another one tomorrow (at
Minnesota).
Boris Diaw and Flip Murray each scored 16 points in a winning cause. The
Bobcats are currently seventh in the Eastern Conference standings and sport a
6-19 mark as the visitor this season.
Minnesota hopes to get back in the win column Wednesday evening after having
its four-game winning streak cut short with last night's 119-97 setback at
Philadelphia.
Wayne Ellington, a Philadelphia-area native, led the Wolves with 16 points,
while Corey Brewer and Jonny Flynn each netted 14 in defeat. Al Jefferson had
12 points to go with 10 rebounds in the loss.
"They thrive off of turnovers and one-on-one play," Timberwolves center Ryan
Hollins said. "They were hitting their shots tonight. You can't turn the ball
over. That's probably one of the worst teams in the NBA you want to do that
against."
The Timberwolves have won three in a row in the Twin Cities and are 9-17 as
the host this season.
Wednesday's showdown between the Bobcats and Timberwolves is the first of two
meetings this season. These two teams split a pair of matchups last season,
but Charlotte has won four of the previous five games in the series.

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.
NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.
Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.
Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.
Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.
