Heat finish hectic stretch in Indy
Basketball Betting Lines
02/14/2012 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Miami Heat try to continue one of their best starts in
team history this evening when they visit the Indiana Pacers at Bankers Life
Fieldhouse.
Miami kept rolling on Monday, as LeBron James scored 35 points to lead the
Heat to a 114-96 win over the Milwaukee Bucks.
James scored 16 of his 35 points in the third quarter, punctuating the effort
by racing past three defenders for a thunderous one-handed dunk that put the
NBA's second-leading scorer over 30 points for the first time in five games.
The Heat moved to 6-1 since their most recent loss to the Bucks on February 1
and are 2-0 on their tough back-to-back-to-back stretch of three road games in
three nights. They are 3-1 overall on a season-long six-game road trip.
"We took last night like it was its own game and we did the same thing
tonight," said James. "Now we move on to Indiana to close it out."
Staying in the win column may not be that difficult, as the Heat beat the
Pacers by 35 earlier in the year and have won three straight, seven of eight
and eight of the last 11 in the series. Miami has also won three in a row in
Indiana after losing 14 straight there.
Dwyane Wade has been particularly effective in Indiana of late, netting more
than 40 points in each of his last two visits there.
The Pacers lost their season-high third straight game on Saturday, falling to
the Denver Nuggets, 113-109.
Danny Granger led the way for the Pacers with 26 points and David West chipped
in 22 points and seven rebounds. A.J. Price scored 13 points off the bench for
a Pacers team that has now dropped four of their last five games.
"We played hard tonight. But they played a little harder and executed a little
better," said Price. "We know we can bounce back. We have not face this, this
year. But we know that we're up to it."

Super Bowl XLIV Odds
Super Bowl XLIII isn't even a week old yet and oddsmakers have already released Super Bowl XLIV odds.
Despite the Pittsburgh Steelers winning Super Bowl 43, the New England Patriots are 8/1 favorites to win Super Bowl 44.
Bet Super Bowl XLIV Future Odds
With their 27-23 victory over the Arizona Cardinals in Super Bowl XLIII, the Steelers became the latest NFL champion. But believe it or not, oddsmakers from online sports book MySportsbook.com don't have the Steelers the favorites to win Super Bowl XLIV next season.
That honor belongs to the New England Patriots, who are 8/1 favorites to win despite not even qualify for the postseason in 2008. The Pats also have a major decision to make regarding what to do with Matt Cassel, who played well in Tom Brady's (knee surgery) absence last year but is also a free agent this offseason.
Ironically, the Steelers aren't even oddsmakers second choice to win Super Bowl 44, as the Dallas Cowboys are listed right behind the Patriots at 9/1 despite not making the playoffs themselves. Clearly oddsmakers think the public will hop back on the Cowboys' bandwagon considering the immense talent they have and the opening of a brand new stadium.
After Dallas, then comes Pittsburgh at 10/1, but they share those odds with the New York Giants, who won Super Bowl XLII. The Indianapolis Colts and San Diego Chargers round out the top six teams at 12/1, while the Baltimore Ravens (14/1), Tennessee Titans (16/1), Carolina Panthers (18/1) and Philadelphia Eagles (18/1) complete the top 10.
The NFC Champion Arizona Cardinals got no love from oddsmakers as they were established as a 30/1 long shot to win next year's Super Bowl. They share those same odds with the Chicago Bears and Tampa Bay Buccaneers – two teams that didn't even qualify for the postseason. Other long shots are the Kansas City Chiefs (100/1), Detroit Lions (100/1), St. Louis Rams (75/1) and Oakland Raiders (75/1).
To see a complete list of all the team's odds to win Super Bowl XLIV, check below.
