Spurs host Grizzlies at AT&T Center

Basketball Betting Lines

11/28/2008 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The San Antonio Spurs shoot for their fourth consecutive victory Friday when they welcome the scuffling Memphis Grizzlies to the AT&T Center.

Tim Duncan scored 21 points and grabbed eight rebounds on Wednesday, as the Spurs defeated the Chicago Bulls, 98-88, in San Antonio.

Rookie George Hill finished with 19 points and 11 boards off the bench for the Spurs, who continue to play without All-Star point guard Tony Parker (ankle) but have won three in a row and six of seven.

Manu Ginobili, in his second game of the season after recovering from offseason left ankle surgery, came off the bench to contribute 15 points.

Parker, who has missed nine games, should be back in less than two weeks.

The Grizzlies lost their fourth straight game Wednesday when Utah's Paul Millsap scored 24 points and hauled in a game-high 16 rebounds, and each Jazz starter reached double figures, as Utah notched a 117-100 victory over Memphis in Salt Lake City.

Rudy Gay had a game-high 27 points and seven rebounds for the Grizzlies, who fell to a miserable 1-7 on the road this season and have lost eight of its last nine overall. Rookie O.J. Mayo added 22 points and Marc Gasol gave 12 points and eight boards in defeat.

San Antonio trounced the Grizz, 94-81, on November 24 in Memphis and has won two straight and four of the last five meetings in the series. The Spurs have also beaten Memphis seven straight times in San Antonio.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup

September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com.  The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans. 

Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to  name a  few.  Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR.  They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.

The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer.  Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
