Ankle Milwaukee Host Host Against Loss

Basketball Betting Lines

Houston will try to get back on track after having a season-high seven-game winning streak cut short with Wednesday's 105-99 loss versus Milwaukee in the opener of a four-game homestand.

 

"We gave up 63 points in the second half. There's no excuse for that," said Rockets coach Kevin McHale. "We had a great second quarter followed by a poor third quarter and then we couldn't ... we just never got any momentum in that game until late but when we started defending again it was too late."

 

The Rockets will also host New York and Minnesota on the residency. The Rockets will try to keep Washington under the 90-point mark since they have won 18 straight games when doing so.

 

(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Atlanta Hawks hope to bounce back from a miserable showing their last time out tonight when they continue a five-game road trip against the Detroit Pistons at the Palace in Auburn Hills. Atlanta seemed lost at times on Wednesday when it dropped a 105-83 decision to the San Antonio Spurs. Jeff Teague led the Hawks with 20 points, while Josh Smith netted 13 on 6- of-17 shooting.

 

The Hawks had won six of seven coming in, but trailed by as many as 26 to the Spurs. THey also turned the ball over 17 times in the loss and slipped to 0-5 this season when scoring less than 90 points.

 

Detroit, meanwhile, also enters tonight's contest on a losing note after falling, 101-98, to the Miami Heat on Wednesday.

 

Greg Monroe posted 20 points and 10 rebounds in the loss, though he also missed a critical basket late in regulation.

 

As well as they may have played against one of the better teams in the Eastern Conference, it was still the Pistons' 12th loss in 14 tries. However, head coach Lawrence Frank was pleased with his team's effort.

 

The Hawks took three of their four meetings with the Pistons last season and have won five of seven and eight of the last 11 overall in this series. Atlanta, though, has dropped 10 of 12 in Detroit.

 

The wrist and ankle injuries occurred during a January 12 game against Memphis. He sat out the January 14 contest against Oklahoma City, but returned two nights later against Orlando and has played every game since.

 

On Tuesday, in a victory over Charlotte, Anthony was 0-for-7 from the field and scored just one point.

 

Tests taken in Denver on Thursday revealed no significant damage, but Bargnani will continue to be treated as symptoms arise.

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.

NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.

Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.

Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.

Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.
