Fredette Backs Friday For LA

Basketball Betting Lines

The Bucks, meanwhile, fell in Chicago on Friday, 107-100, after learning they would be without their best player, center Andrew Bogut, for up to three months.

 

The Bucks stayed competitive against the mighty Bulls without Bogut but Derrick Rose proved to be too much in the end, pouring in a season-high 34 points to lead the Bulls.

 

Brandon Jennings led Milwaukee with 25 points and seven rebounds, while Drew Gooden, replacing Bogut in the starting lineup, added 23 points and 15 boards. Jon Leuer added a season-high 19 points.

 

Milwaukee snapped a six-game skid to the Lakers with a 98-79 win at Staples Center last season.

 

Most recently Rudy Gay had 24 points to pace Memphis in LA on Thursday. The Grizz made it competitive despite being down 16 points in the first quarter but eventually fell for the second straight time on the heels of a seven-game winning streak.

 

Marc Gasol logged 16 points, 11 rebounds and six assists for the Grizzlies, while Tony Allen and O.J. Mayo had 14 points apiece.

 

The Suns, meanwhile, dropped their third straight in Portland on Friday, getting routed by the Trail Blazers 109-71. LaMarcus Aldridge scored 23 points in that one as Portland dominated the middle two quarters en rote to avenging a 102-77 loss at Phoenix on Jan. 6.

 

"We can't score nine points and it's happened quite a bit now," Suns coach Alvin Gentry said of the horrid second quarter. "I've got to make some adjustments some kind of way where we can at least keep the game level when we're in it in the second quarter."

Pro Football Odds : NFC SOUTH BETTING ODDS

NFL Sports Betting

NFL betting action is back! At MySportsbook, all of the pro football odds are posted for the NFC North. Check out how we see the four teams in this cloudy division stacking up this year in the chase for the playoffs! Green Bay Packers (+125) - With QB Aaron Rodgers leading the offense and DC Dom Capers working his magic on defense, the Packers are a real force to be reckoned with.

Virtually nothing changed on this offense for Green Bay from last year to this year, save for the addition of rookie OT Brian Bulaga to the bunch. Expect more huge numbers from the Pack, and a relatively favorable schedule should get them over the hump and into the playoffs once again this season. My NFL Betting Predictions: 11-5, 1st place in NFC North Minnesota Vikings (+130) - There are still too many unknowns about the Vikes this year. There is a huge difference between QB Brett Favre and either Tarvaris Jackson or Sage Rosenfels under center. Plus, is Favre comes back, is he really going to be able to keep his pick total under double digits again? Depth at running back looked like it might have been an issue with RB Chester Taylor fleeing in free agency, but drafting RB Toby Gerhart should pick up the difference. This defense is still suitable, but with a first place schedule, making the playoffs is going to be very tough regardless of whether #4 comes back or not.

Chicago Bears (+350) - The Bears are probably a bit of an overhyped team once again this year.No, we don't think it is plausible for QB Jay Cutler to have as bad of a season as he did last year, and we do think the additions of RB Chester Taylor and DE Julius Peppers are going to help immensely, but there's still something in the water in the Windy City that we aren't so sure about. Maybe Chicago finds its way to .500... but then again, maybe it doesn't. If Favre comes back, Cutler might be the worst quarterback in this division this year.

Detroit Lions (+1500) - The Lions are probably once again going to be the whipping boys for the rest of the teams in the NFC North, but they aren't just going to roll over and die once again. There is some real talent amassing on this team offensively, as the combination of QB Matt Stafford, RB Jahvid Best, WR Calvin Johnson, and TE Brandon Pettigrew should put a bunch of points on the board if the offensive line can even remotely hold up. The questions really lie on defense, where it feels like DT Ndamukong Suh is going to be trying to stop opposing teams all by himself. This year should show some marked improvement in the Motor City.

The Patriots will make NFL betting fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
