Bulls face Bobcats in Windy CityBasketball Betting Lines04/03/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Hoping to keep their slim postseason hopes alive, the Chicago Bulls will return home for three games starting with tonight's matchup versus the playoff-hopeful Charlotte Bobcats at the United Center. Chicago is 1 1/2 games behind Toronto for the eighth and final playoff berth in the East, and will also welcome Milwaukee and Cleveland to the Windy City. The Bulls, who own a 21-16 home record, have won five of their last seven games to stay in the race and are coming off Friday's 95-87 win at Washington. Derrick Rose pumped in 24 points to lead all scorers, while Taj Gibson added 14 points and 16 rebounds for the Bulls. "We are always trying to look at matchups," said Bulls coach Vinny Del Negro. "I liked our defense in the second half and they didn't get as many second shots and second chance points which was great." Luol Deng added 14 points, and both Kirk Hinrich and Joakim Noah had 10 in a winning effort. The Bobcats are on the verge of their first-ever playoff appearance and sit seventh in the East, only a game behind No. 6 Milwaukee. They have won two straight and five of six games, and are coming off Friday's 87-86 overtime triumph versus the Bucks in the finale of a five-game homestand. Stephen Jackson scored 32 points and sank the last of his four three-pointers to break a tie score with less than a minute to go in overtime. Raymond Felton added 12 points and six assists, while Gerald Wallace came up with 11 rebounds for the Bobcats, who went 4-1 on the residency and are 29-9 as the host. "We just wanted to play harder than them," Jackson said. "We wanted to be the more physical team." Bobcats coach Larry Brown was ejected after receiving two technical fouls in the second quarter for arguing with the refs. Charlotte will try to work on its 11-26 road record before the postseason commences. The 2009-10 season series between the Bobcats and Bulls is tied at a game apiece, with each team holding serve as the host. Charlotte has dropped eight of the 10 meetings in the Windy City.

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.
