Wizards re-sign F Josh Howard
Basketball Betting Lines
07/30/2010 -
Washington, DC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Washington Wizards signed free
agent forward Josh Howard to a one-year deal Friday.
Per team policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed. However, TNT analyst
David Aldridge reported earlier in the week that the deal could pay the
veteran up to $4 million if he is able to reach incentive clauses.
The Wizards acquired Howard from Dallas in February as part of a seven-player
deal that sent forward Caron Butler to the Mavericks.
He suffered a torn ACL in his left knee a week after he was traded and missed
the remainder of the season after playing in only four games for the Wizards.
"We were impressed with Josh's versatility, how well he fit in with our team
and his attitude and work ethic both before and after his unfortunate knee
injury," said Wizards president Ernie Grunfeld. "His experience playing in a
winning situation makes him an ideal veteran presence for us as we develop our
roster of young talent."
A product of Wake Forest, Howard averaged 12.7 points and 3.6 rebounds in 35
total games last season for the Mavs and Wizards.
Over his seven-year career, with those two teams, he has posted per game
averages of 15.3 points and six boards in 435 contests, 371 as a starter.

NFL Football Betting : Odds on NFL Division to Win the Super Bowl
NFL Super Bowl Betting
The 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.
