Celtics to bring back Robinson
Basketball Betting Lines
07/16/2010 -
Boston, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Boston Celtics are reportedly set to re-sign
guard Nate Robinson.
According to the Boston Herald on Friday, Robinson will ink a two-year, $8
million deal with the club that traded for him last season.
Boston acquired the three-time NBA Slam Dunk champion in a five-player deal
with the Knicks in February, and the 5-foot-9, 180-pound sparkplug proved
vital off the bench for the Eastern Conference champions.
Though his minutes went down considerably following the trade, Robinson
donated 6.5 points and 2.0 assists in 26 regular season games as a backup to
Rajon Rondo.
The 26-year-old netted three double-digit scoring games in the postseason,
including a 13-point effort in a series-clinching win over Orlando in the
conference finals.
Robinson spent the first four-plus years of his career in New York. Over 338
career games, the Washington product has averaged 12.0 points and 2.7 assists
per contest.

Terrell Owens could return for Cowboys next game
A bye week will allow Terrell Owens broken hand to recover just in time for the next game the Dallas Cowboys are slated to play, according to reports. MySportsbook.com, an football sportsbook, has posted football betting lines on TO playing.
Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday. Although Owens' hand was swollen and aching Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said he's optimistic the receiver will be back at work next week and catching passes a week from Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.
MySportsbook.com online sportsbook listed Terrell Owens with odds of 7-2 (or $7 paid out for every $2 bet) to return back for the game against Tennessee.
"I certainly wouldn't rule it out now," Parcells said, referring to Terrell Owens immediate return. "Maybe five days from now I might, but I wouldn't rule it out now. ... I know we're looking to try to get him moving around pretty good in the next day or so. So we'll see where we are."
Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com
