Points Detroit Wrap Salvage On Wizards

Basketball Betting Lines

"We just kind of fell in line behind him," said Wizards head coach Randy Wittman about Wall's play. "That is as good a game that I've had with him that he's played on both ends of the floor."

 

(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The best from the NBA's Eastern Conference meets the worst from the West when the Chicago Bulls resume their grueling nine-game road trip against the lowly Hornets in New Orleans. The Bulls won their third straight contest and improved to 4-2 on the trek with a 108-87 blowout win over the New Jersey Nets on Monday. Chicago shot 55.6 percent from the floor, made nine three-pointers and went 19-of-23 from the foul line en route to the easy win.

 

Carlos Boozer led the way with 24 points, six rebounds and five assists for Chicago, which improved to 21-6 on the season. Luol Deng added 19 points.

 

Rose is listed as questionable tonight and wants to play but the Bulls may consider resting him against a poor New Orleans team, which has dropped 21 of 23 games since starting the season 2-0. Rose's running mate in the backcourt, Rip Hamilton, is also questionable with a nagging groin problem.

 

The Bulls, who are 12-5 as the visitor, will finish their lengthy trip with visits to Charlotte and Boston before returning to the Windy City for six-game residency.

 

Emeka Okafor had 19 points and Chris Kaman added a 10-point, 12-rebound double-double in his first game since January 23 for a Hornets team that has dropped six straight and 15 of 16.

 

The Hornets, who are just 2-12 in the Big Easy, will also face Portland and Utah on their residency.

 

(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Only one of Detroit's six wins this season has come on the road and the Pistons would like to change that as early as tonight, when they pay a visit to the New Jersey Nets in the opener of a home-and-home set. The Pistons and Nets will then meet at The Palace of Auburn Hills on Friday.

 

"It's more or less effort; that's basically it," Monroe said about his performance. "That's what everybody preaches, effort and position. That's something I take pride in, so what you see on the court is just me working hard, trying to do my job."

 

Ben Gordon and Will Bynum are still nursing injuries and their status for Wednesday's game is unknown. Gordon has been sidelined the last 10 games with a sore left shoulder and Bynum has missed 14 in a row with a strained right foot tendon.

 

The Nets have dropped three in a row and five of their last six games, including Monday's 108-87 loss to the Chicago Bulls. The Bulls lost reigning MVP Derrick Rose in the second quarter to lower back spasms and New Jersey still couldn't take advantage.

Big Ten Conference odds

Teams that should be in: Michigan State, Indiana
Work left to do: Illinois, Purdue, Michigan, Iowa

Behind the big two, the pecking order might be in a bit of flux. Has Michigan State passed Indiana after handling the Hoosiers in East Lansing? Where is Illinois in that mix? What looked like a four-big league last week could be morphing into five -- and even six is not unthinkable at this point if everything breaks right.

Should be in:

Michigan State [21-8 (8-6), RPI: 20, SOS: 15] The Spartans made it four-for-four on the homestand, a gigantic accomplishment that leaves them in extremely good shape. MSU is only 1-6 on the road and is at Michigan and at Wisconsin to close things out, meaning the date with the Wolverines on Tuesday looms very, very large. Beating Texas early will hold up well, as will the rout of Bradley and the win over BYU, but will 8-8 be enough? It very well could be, as the computer numbers are good, but why chance it?

Indiana [18-9 (8-6), RPI: 24, SOS: 32] Hmm ... good thing the last two are at Northwestern and home to Penn State, because IU might want to get both to feel completely safe after dropping its third in the last four, fading after halftime at Michigan State. Who knew the best nonconference win would be over Southern Illinois, which is a gift that keeps on giving for the Hoosiers. The win over Wisconsin also looks good on the mantel.

Work left to do:

Illinois [21-9 (9-6), RPI: 31, SOS: 25] A good performance at Penn State leaves the Illini in pretty good shape. Can they go to Iowa and take care of business to really look on their way? That's a huge game, as there is a possible cluster of teams that will end at 9-7. Illinois beat Bradley, but has lost to Xavier. A 9-7 mark and a semifinals trip in Chicago could be enough with the computer profile hanging in there, but it would be better not to mess around, clinching at least a tie for third.

Purdue [18-10 (7-7), RPI: 47, SOS: 28] Couldn't get it done at Iowa, but did win at Northwestern to put 9-7 squarely in sight. Where does that leave the Boilermakers, though? Even if they beat Minnesota and Northwestern at home, that won't help the computer numbers. Nonconference wins over Virginia, DePaul and Oklahoma are solid, but not spectacular. The Boilers very well might need an upset in the B10 quarters to have a legit claim.

Michigan [19-10 (7-7), RPI: 55, SOS: 53] Well, Michigan did what it needed to do, winning at Minnesota to take control of its fate. The Wolverines have Michigan State and an already-wrapped-up-the-league Ohio State at home to close, so the chances are there. Win both and we can talk. There is no marquee win yet in the profile, and the Wolverines were splattered in several games against name opponents. A mediocre computer profile fueled by a lack of road wins isn't helping, either.

Iowa [16-12 (8-6), RPI: 80, SOS: 64] For the sake of being complete, we'll add Iowa, this season's Stanford. It's plausible that the Hawkeyes could get to 10-6 (at Penn State, vs. Illinois left), but where does that leave them after a gruesome nonconference performance where the best win was over ... Toledo? Iowa State? Cornell?? If they get to 10-6, we can start to look at what they need to do in the B10 tourney, although my gut sense is that they would need to make the final and have knocked off Ohio State or Wisconsin on the way to have any real claim.
