Rockets ready to match Cavs offer sheet to Lowry
Basketball Betting Lines
07/14/2010 -
Houston, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Houston Rockets plan to match the offer
sheet extended Wednesday to restricted free-agent guard Kyle Lowry.
Houston general Manager Daryl Morey said on his Twitter account
Wednesday afternoon, "we plan to match the agreement and we are excited he
will be returning to the Rockets."
Terms of the contract were not disclosed, but the Cleveland Plain Dealer
reported the offer was for three years with a team option for a fourth
that had the deal's value close to $24 million.
Lowry averaged 9.1 points, 4.5 assists and 3.6 rebounds over 68 games last
season for the Rockets, who wasted little time in matching Cleveland's offer.
The 24-year-old was originally selected by Memphis with the 24th overall pick
in the 2006 draft out of Villanova. He was part of a three-team trade during
the 2008-09 season that landed him in Houston.
In 237 career games between the two teams, including 30 starts, Lowry has
posted averages of 8.7 points, 3.8 assists and 3.0 rebounds while seeing time
in 23.6 minutes per contest.

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds
With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best Heisman Trophy odds at 5-2.
Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season. Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money.
This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy. A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.
