Raptors resume road trip in Oakland vs. WarriorsBasketball Betting Lines03/13/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Toronto Raptors haven't been playing like a team headed towards the postseason and will resume a four-game road trip Saturday night against the Golden State Warriors in Oakland. Toronto is currently eighth in the Eastern Conference standings and has dropped three straight and seven of eight contests, including Wednesday's 113-90 setback at Sacramento. Andrea Bargnani had 20 points and six rebounds for the Raptors, who are 0-2 on the trek and 10-21 away from Canada. The Raptors lead Chicago by two games for the last spot in the East playoff race with 19 games to play. "I think we got really selfish. We had guys coming down and taking shots and other guys are not happy that they don't touch the ball. We miss the shot and they (Sacramento) get the rebound and then fastbreak points," said Toronto head coach Jay Triano. All-Star Chris Bosh, Jarrett Jack and DeMar DeRozan each scored 14 points in a losing cause. Bosh is averaging 20.6 points, 9.2 rebounds and 3.0 assists over his last five games. The Raptors are the highest scoring team in the Eastern Conference and will also visit Portland on the road swing. Meanwhile, the Warriors have lost six in a row to start the month of March and will resume a four-game homestand Saturday versus Toronto. Golden State suffered a 110-105 loss to Portland in the opener of the residency on Thursday, as Corey Maggette recorded 24 points and six assists in defeat. Leading scorer Monta Ellis returned from a six-game absence due to a back injury and provided 17 points. Ellis is averaging 25.5 ppg. "They made shots. In the beginning of the game we forced turnovers, got steals and got out to run. That's how we got the lead. We just couldn't hold it," Ellis said. Stephen Curry added 15 points and Anthony Tolliver notched a double-double with 14 points and 11 rebounds for the Warriors, who are 13-19 as the host and will also entertain the Lakers and Hornets by the Bay. In injury news for Golden State, center Ronny Turiaf is questionable against the Raptors because of a sore left knee. Toronto and Golden State are meeting are playing the first of two meetings this season, as the Raptors are slated to host the Warriors on April 4. Golden State has won eight of 11 and 10 of the last 14 games in this series.

NFL Football Betting : Odds on NFL Division to Win the Super BowlThe AFC South and the NFC East are the favorite divisions to have the next Super Bowl champ among them in the NFL betting odds. But more down to the point, these football odds are in favor of the Indianapolis Colts, by far the strongest team in the AFC South, and the Dallas Cowboys of the NFC East. Most sports fans would agree that these two teams top the list to win it all before the season even begins. In the BetUS Sportsbook football futures, the Colts are +800 in the odds to win the Super Bowl, while the Cowboys are sitting at +1000 and the Super Bowl XLIV champions New Orleans Saints at +900. In the AFC South, the Colts won the division for five straight years after the 2002 realignment, before the Tennessee Titans won it in 2008. But the Colts came back strong in 2009 to win the division again en route to the Super Bowl. The Cowboys are the favorite to win the NFC East, as well as to advance far into the post season. The Cowboys won the division last season before their horrendous loss in the NFC Divisional playoff to Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings. But the ‘Boys will take that loss humbly and be ready for the playoffs this time around. The NFC South is also very strong, at +600 in the NFL futures, considering that it is home to the defending Super Bowl champions. However, some predictions have the Atlanta Falcons with possibilities of claiming the divisional title this season in place of the Saints, as no team has won back-to-back division championships since the division realignment took place. Let’s not overlook the AFC North at +500. As TO goes to Cincinnati to join Chad OchoCinco and Adam “Pac-Man” Jones, this team looks to claim the division title again. And it is likely they will do so. The Bengals lost in the AFC Wild Card spot in a hard-fought battle against the New York Jets last season. Lest not forget the Pittsburgh Steelers, the XLII Super Bowl Champions… All these teams present interesting odds and matchups for the upcoming season, but the safest and surest bet seems to be with the Colts in the AFC South and the Cowboys in the NFC East.
