Basketball Betting Lines
03/14/2010 -
Sacramento, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tyreke Evans came just shy of a triple
double, finishing with 29 points, 11 assists and nine rebounds, and the
Sacramento Kings routed the Minnesota Timberwolves, 114-100, at ARCO Arena.
Donte Greene added 19 points and eight rebounds for the Kings, who had lost
four of their previous five but snuck above the .500 mark at home with a 17-16
record thus far. Jason Thompson provided 15 points and eight boards, while
Carl Landry had 13 points and six rebounds in the resounding win.
Al Jefferson scored 22 points and grabbed 10 rebounds to lead the dismal
Timberwolves, who have lost nine straight and 15 of 16. Wayne Ellington came
off the bench to add 15 points, while Ryan Gomes contributed 14 points in
defeat.
The Kings grabbed a 32-28 lead after the opening quarter, then stretched the
lead to 45-33 early in the second behind an 11-2 run that ended on a Thompson
reverse layup.
The lead hovered around 10 before a half-ending 8-0 burst, which gave
Sacramento a 64-49 halftime lead after Evans' three-point play in the final
minute.
Things only got worse for the T'Wolves in the third, when they were outscored
by a 30-12 margin. The Kings scored the first 15 points of the second half,
and Greene capped the burst with seven straight points for a 79-49 advantage
with just under seven minutes left.
The advantage reached as high as 34 before Sacramento went into the fourth
with a 94-61 lead. The Timberwolves outscored the Kings by 19 in the final
quarter, but the flurry still did not pose a threat to the outcome.

Sacramento leads the season series, 2-1...Andres Nocioni scored 12 points for
the Kings...Ramon Sessions had 13 points for Minnesota, which got 12 points

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch
Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.
Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.
"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."
