Sacramento still alive in the West

Basketball Betting Lines

02/28/2007 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Sacramento Kings are having a disappointing season, as they have compiled a weak 24-32 record and sit in last place in the Pacific Division.

Even with their record, the Kings are just three games behind the Los Angeles Clippers for the eighth and final playoff sport in Western Conference. If the Kings do not qualify for the postseason, their string of eight straight years in the playoffs will come to an end.

The Kings return home after going 1-3 on a four-game road trip, as they welcome the Charlotte Bobcats on Tuesday to ARCO Arena. It is the first of two meetings between the clubs this season. Charlotte will host the Kings on March 14th at Charlotte Bobcats Arena. The teams have split four meetings. The Kings are 0-2 as the visitor against the Bobcats

On Monday, Samuel Dalembert posted 20 points and 17 rebounds, as the Philadelphia 76ers opened a six-game homestand with an 89-82 victory over the Kings at the Wachovia Center.

Kevin Martin scored 23 points in the loss to Philadelphia for the Kings, who have dropped six of their last eight games overall. Brad Miller had 21 points and 10 boards, while Ron Artest ended with 13 points for Sacramento, which is just 8-20 on the road this season.

Sacramento is 16-12 at home this season. The Kings, who have won six of their last seven contests at ARCO Arena, will visit the Lakers on Friday at the Staples Center and the Portland Trail Blazers on Saturday at the Rose Garden.

Martin, who leads the Kings in scoring (20.8 ppg) has continued his impressive campaign. He is averaging 29.0 points and five rebounds in his last two outings. The 6-7 Martin has scored in double-digits in 52 of the 55 games he has played in this season.

The Kings will play split their final 26 games of the regular season evenly between ARCO Arena and the road.

Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl Odds

Will he or won't he?  Now that the Dallas Cowboys have a new head coach in Wade Phillips, the big question will be: Does Terrell Owens stay with the team.

Jerry Jones continues to suggest that Terrell Owens will remain with the team.

"I've said that he's back, he's here, he's under contract," Jones said. "In the interviews I've just been through (to hire a new coach), it was very clear to me how highly he's thought of and how much of an impact he had on our offensive success."

Just to be sure though, Terrell Owens cleared out his locker and removed his name plate.

Terrell Owens was among the Cowboys most productive players this past season, catching 85 passes for 1,180 yards and a league-best 13 touchdowns.

But T.O. is due a $3 million roster bonus in June, then a $5 million salary this season. Cutting him before then would save a lot of money and headaches.

Aside from the questions surrounding Terrell Owens, the oddsmakers at MySportsbook.com have concerns over starting quarterback Tony Romo's state of mind and whether he will remain a starting quarterback.  It is also not known how players will adjust to new head coach, Wade Phillips.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect

LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet.

Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots.

Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4.
