Mavs visit Love, Timberwolves
Basketball Betting Lines
02/10/2012 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Minnesota Timberwolves will have Kevin Love back in the
lineup tonight versus the Dallas Mavericks at Target Center after serving a
two-game suspension for stomping on Houston's Luis Scola during the third
quarter of Saturday's 100-91 win.
Love, who leads the Wolves in both scoring (25.0 ppg) and rebounding (13.7),
missed Tuesday's 86-84 win over Sacramento and Wednesday's 85-80 loss at
Memphis. The All-Star forward should provide a big lift for a Minnesota team
that had its three-game winning streak cut short against the Grizzlies.
J.J. Barea ended with 17 points and six assists, while Michael Beasley and
Derrick Williams each scored 13 points for the Timberwolves, who got 10 points
and nine rebounds from Nikola Pekovic and shot just 39.2 percent.
"We didn't come out with energy," Barea said on the team's website. "That put
us in a deep hole. With teams like this, you can't fall behind."
The Wolves have won two in a row at home and will also welcome the New York Knicks to town on Saturday. They are 7-8 in the Twin Cities in 2011-12.
Dallas, meanwhile, will wrap up a three-game road trip this evening and put
the brakes on a three-game slide with Wednesday's 105-95 triumph at Denver
thanks to Dirk Nowitzki's 25 points and nine rebounds.
Vince Carter had 17 points and both Shawn Marion and Rodrigue Beaubois
registered 13 for the defending NBA champion Mavericks, who have won seven of
their last 11 games and improved to 6-6 away from Big D.
"When you're dealing with the altitude and all that," said Dallas head coach
Rick Carlisle, "we had to have a lot of guys in and out of the game, and a lot
of guys contributing and we did and that's the reason we won."
After tonight's game in Minnesota, the Mavs will return to Dallas for a three-
game homestand versus the Blazers, Clippers and Nuggets. Nowitzki is averaging
26.3 points per game in his last three contests for a Dallas team that is 7-1
when scoring 100-plus points. Nowitzki has 23,179 career points and needs 156
to pass Boston legend Robert Parish (23,334) for 20th on the NBA's all-time
scoring list. He is averaging 22.0 ppg in 46 career meetings with Minnesota
and was just named to his 11th straight All-Star game.
On the injury front for the Mavs, guards Jason Kidd (calf) and Jason Terry
(hip) are questionable for tonight. Kidd has missed six straight games and
Terry played less than 28 minutes at Denver, scoring a season-low five points.
Dallas has lost the first two meetings with the Timberwolves this season, but
is still a gaudy 18-3 in the past 21 matchups between the teams. Minnesota
halted a nine-game home losing streak in this series with a 99-82 triumph at
the Target Center on New Year's Day.
The Wolves haven't posted a three-game winning streak in this series since
ripping off seven wins over the Mavs from Dec. 23, 1995 - Feb. 27, 1997.

NFL ODDSTop Football Betting Free Agents to Change Teams
NFL Betting
It’s time to see how the biggest NFL free agent signings will perform for their news teams. Some will work out and could be the difference that makes a difference in the win column.
We look at the best off-season signings and if they should influence your NFL betting this season. Julius Peppers – Peppers was the biggest prize available on the 2010 NFL free agent market and the Chicago Bears opened the bank to bring his talents to the south side.
Peppers is explosive, he can get around blockers and cause quarterbacks to lose their minds. We all remember the classic Peppers game last year against the Vikings where he hounded Brett Favre into his worst game of the season. Peppers joining the Bears could be the reason Favre retired for good Tuesday morning. In addition to Peppers, the Bears added Chester Taylor to back up Matt Forte, Forte didn’t have the same intensity in 2009 compared to 2008 and bringing in Taylor will challenge Forte to bring it every game or he’ll risk losing carries to Taylor.
Betting on the Bears is a good option this season because of Julius Peppers and to a lesser extent Taylor. Antonio Bryant and Terrell Owens – The Cincinnati Bengals signed two former number one wide receivers to line up with Chad Ocho Cinco. Antonio Bryant had a huge season in 2008 catching 83 passes for over 1200 yards but regressed last season. Playing for the Tampa Bay Bucs last season was a large part of the regression, everyone was bad in TB last season.
Bryant should have a bounce back season if he can win the number two spot from Terrell Owens. If Bryant wins the number 2 WR spot, it will open up a completely new set of problems for the Bengals. If Owens is forced to the bench in favor of Bryant, his attitude will create trouble for Carson Palmer and head coach Marv Lewis. If Owens is the number two receiver, it means Bryant can’t live up to his past numbers and the Bengals are still limited in the passing game. NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. 2010 football betting lines for this can be found at this top online sportsbook. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense.
NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense. They signed away the Arizona Cardinals top linebacker Karlos Danby. In the past two seasons, Danby has totaled 228 tackles, 5 sacks, 3 interceptions and 3 forced fumbles. The Dolphins are the forgotten team of the AFC East with the second longest odds to win the division but with the addition of Karlos Danby and a trade for WR Brandon Marshall makes the Miami Dolphins legitimate contenders in the AFC East and in the NFL’s Eastern Conference.
The Dolphins will make NFL wagering fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash. NFL Wagering
