04/11/2009 - East Rutherford, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Vince Carter led the Nets with 27 points and nine assists, as New Jersey topped an uninspired Orlando Magic club, 103-93.
"I just kind of wanted to set the tone of how we wanted to play these last couple of games," Carter said. "We're bettering ourselves for next year, gaining confidence."
Brook Lopez added 13 points and 11 rebounds for New Jersey, which had lost eight of 10 coming in but shot a sizzling 54.3 percent from the floor. Keyon Dooling chipped in 12 points and 10 helpers for the victors.
Hedo Turkoglu led the Magic with 16 points but was helped off the court in the fourth quarter after rolling his left ankle. Mickael Pietrus and Tony Battie notched 14 points each in the setback.
Dwight Howard was held to seven points and eight rebounds in 26 minutes of action for Orlando, which dropped back-to-back games for just the third time this season. The Magic now sit 2 1/2 games back of Boston for the No. 2 seed in the East.
"I think the biggest thing is defense, we're not helping," Howard said. "We have to do something about this. We have to get it going before the playoffs start."
All Star's Devin Harris (shoulder) for New Jersey and Rashard Lewis (knee) for Orlando sat out due to their respective ailments.
The Nets jumped out to a 28-24 lead after 12 minutes of action. Midway through the second frame, consecutive three-pointers by Jarvis Hayes and Bobby Simmons sparked a 10-0 flurry for the hosts that resulted in a 47-30 advantage.
Orlando's Rafer Alston hit a jumper to beat the halftime buzzer, but the Magic were still looking at a 57-47 deficit at the break.
New Jersey continued to play frontrunner in the third, taking an 83-74 cushion into the final stanza. After Turkoglu scored six straight points for Orlando early in the fourth, Anthony Johnson made a jumper to pull the Magic within 87-82 at the eight-minute mark.
But Simmons nailed a three to spark an 8-0 stretch, during which time Turkoglu went down with an injury. Another Simmons trey a little later made it 100-86 with four minutes left and it was a double-digit game the rest of the way.

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.
The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.
MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.
Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.

Terrell Owens could return for Cowboys next game
A bye week will allow Terrell Owens broken hand to recover just in time for the next game the Dallas Cowboys are slated to play, according to reports. MySportsbook.com, an football sportsbook, has posted football betting lines on TO playing.
Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday. Although Owens' hand was swollen and aching Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said he's optimistic the receiver will be back at work next week and catching passes a week from Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.
MySportsbook.com online sportsbook listed Terrell Owens with odds of 7-2 (or $7 paid out for every $2 bet) to return back for the game against Tennessee.
"I certainly wouldn't rule it out now," Parcells said, referring to Terrell Owens immediate return. "Maybe five days from now I might, but I wouldn't rule it out now. ... I know we're looking to try to get him moving around pretty good in the next day or so. So we'll see where we are."
Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com
