Bobcats welcome Pistons to townBasketball Betting Lines11/03/2008 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Charlotte Bobcats will attempt to build on their first win under new coach Larry Brown at Time Warner Cable Arena Monday against a true Eastern Conference power, the Detroit Pistons. Gerald Wallace poured in a game-high 34 points, pulled down nine rebounds, dished out three assists and swatted three shots, giving Brown his first win with the team, a 100-87 victory over the Miami Heat in the Bobcats' home- opener on Saturday. Jason Richardson added 23 points for Charlotte, which was 0-8 in the preseason and lost at Cleveland in its season opener on Thursday under Brown, who counts Detroit as one of his many former coaching outposts. Emeka Okafor logged a double-double with 18 points and 13 rebounds in the victory. Brown mentored the Pistons from 2003-05, guiding the team to back-to-back NBA finals and winning the NBA title in 2004. He left the Motor City after the 2004-05 season. The nomadic Brown alienated the Pistons front office by flirting with the Cavaliers regarding an executive position during the postseason and Detroit bought out his contract. The Pistons stayed perfect for their new coach, Michael Curry, when Richard Hamilton scored 24 points and Rasheed Wallace added 17 points, 12 rebounds and six blocks in the Pistons 117-109 win over the Washington Wizards on Saturday. Walter Herrmann chipped in 16 points for the Pistons. Chauncey Billups ended with 12 points, including a flawless 7-of-7 showing from the foul line. Detroit swept the season series between the two clubs last season, winning all three games and has won four in a row overall versus the Bobcats. The Pistons have won two straight and four of the seven matchups in Charlotte.

American Idol odds : Blake Lewis the Early Standout An important American Idol betting lines recap from February 20 Guys episode. The 12 men came out flat overall with Blake Lewis appearing to have the early edge after the first hour and a half. Rudy - was quite good singing "Free Ride" to start off. Randy was not impressed though. Paula thought he started off fantastic. "Never had anyone stop off so lively" said Paula but Simon (who does not like Rudy) does not feel he has a distinct voice and was not impressed either. Brandon was a little pitchy according to Randy and Paula agreed. Simon said he was a good singer but the song was "too safe" and he needs to make an impact. He was listed at +1200 odds or $1200 paid out on a $100 bet should he win the competition. Big favorite Sundance came in with a flat version of "Knights in White Satin" and the judges let him have it, including Paula. Randy claimed the song was out of pitch throughout. Korean American - and a Jenny Woo favorite - Paul Kim was up next. Another pitchy flat one but Randy said he still liked his potential. Kim at +3000 odds was said to have sung a "third rate version of that (George Michael) song" according to Simon Cowell. He sang "Careless Whisper". 22 year old Chris Richardson was up next. He was listed with +1100 odds coming in. He got the best response from the judges though Simon did not believe the vocal was that great. Nick was boring and pitchy. Simon didn't think he was that bad though and predicted he would be back next week. Nick Pedro was a big +3000 dog coming into this competition. Beat boxer Blake Lewis was listed with early +1000 odds or $1000 payout on a $100 bet if he were to become the next American Idol winner odds . These of course were the early odds. He was considered original for picking an "odd song". He did not beat box and the judges felt it was the best vocal of the night. Sanjaya came in as the second biggest favorite after Chris Sligh but his performance Tuesday night was not very good. Chris Sleigh was the early favorite at +450 odds. Great voice and a great sense of humor. He's a real standout. Randy felt it was on point but maybe ahead of the chorus a little bit. Simon Cowell said he felt like he was in some "sort of weird student gig". Jared Cotter followed. He was listed with +2000 odds early on to win the competition. The judges felt he needs to take more risks but looked good. Phil - this season's military favorite - came into this competition with +1200 odds to win the competition. He was the last to perform. He was certainly strong enough to get through this stage of the competition and perhaps the best one after a shaky start. Tomorrow night, the ladies perform and I sure hope they do a better job than the boys. Check out all the American Idol betting odds here.
