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.

Matt Kenseth And Kevin Harvick Favorites To Take NASCAR Nextel Cup Championship

(September 15)—The NASCAR season has hit the homestretch with the opening event on this year’s Chase for the Cup taking place this weekend at the Sylvania 300 at New Hampshire International Speedway. With 10 races remaining to determine the Cup Series champion, leading online sportsbook MySportsbook.com today announced odds on all 10 Chase qualifying drivers capturing the NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship.

One of the largest sportsbook sites on the Internet, MySportsbook.com currently lists the top two drivers in the point standings as the early favorites to win the Nextel Cup. Entering the Chase for the Cup with a slim five-point lead in the point standings, 2003 NASCAR champ Matt Kenseth has been made a slight favorite to win his second Cup at 7/2 betting odds. 2001 Cup Rookie of the Year Kevin Harvick has betting odds listed at 5/2 and four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon is listed at 6/1 to capture the Nextel Cup this year.

Hoping to follow in the footsteps of his legendary father who won six NASCAR titles, Dale Earnhardt Jr. stands at 8/1 to breakthrough with his first Cup victory. Staying with the family theme, MySportsbook.com lists 2005 Rookie of the Year Kyle Busch at 14/1 to succeed big brother Kurt’s 2004 NASCAR title. While Kasey Kahne was the final driver to qualify for the Chase with a third place finish last week, the oddsmakers give him a fighting chance at 10/1 mainly due to several mile-and-a-half tracks remaining on the schedule. Despite going winless on the NASCAR circuit this season, Jeff Burton enters the Chase at 5/1 to capture the Cup title. Meanwhile, rookie Denny Hamlin is 4/1 to win the championship, while veteran driver Mark Martin enters the Chase for the Cup as a 15/1 long shot to win his first NASCAR title in his 24th and final season.
