Basketball Betting Lines
09/01/2010 -
Boston, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Boston Celtics have signed free agent guard
Delonte West.
Terms of the deal were not released, but the Boston Herald reports it is a
non-guaranteed contract for the upcoming season.
West was an original draft pick of the Celtics in 2004, taken 24th overall out
of Saint Joseph's.
The 27-year-old veteran of six seasons spent the last two-plus years in
Cleveland. He was limited to 35 games in 2009-10 and 64 games a year earlier
dealing with a myriad of legal and health problems. He was dealt to Minnesota
last July and was subsequently waived.
West's best years came in Boston where he averaged a career-high 12.2 points
with 4.4 assists in 69 games during the 2006-07 campaign. He started 71 games
for the C's a year prior when he averaged a career-best 4.6 assists and 4.1
rebounds while scoring 11.8 per game.
In 339 career games, including 221 starts, West has averaged 9.9 points, 3.7
assists and 3.1 boards while connecting on 37.8 percent of his three-point
tries.
West also spent a brief stint with Seattle in 2007-08 after being dealt by
Boston in the trade that netted Ray Allen from the SuperSonics.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup
September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com. The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans.
Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to name a few. Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR. They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.
The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer. Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
