Basketball Betting Lines

07/13/2010 - Boston, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Boston Celtics have re-signed guard Ray Allen, the team announced Tuesday.

Terms of the deal were not disclosed, but reports from last week said Allen agreed to a two-year, $20 million contract.

"Re-signing Ray has been a priority of ours this offseason and this move will allow us to stay at a championship level," said Danny Ainge, Celtics president of basketball operations.

Allen averaged 16.3 points, 3.2 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game over 80 contests last regular season. He also averaged 16.1 points during the team's playoff run, which ended with a Game 7 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA Finals.

During the championship series, Allen set an NBA Finals record by sinking eight three-point shots in a Game 2 victory.

"I am ecstatic to be back in Boston," Allen said. "I cannot wait to get onto the court and get back to work with the rest of the team in pursuit of Banner 18."

Over 14 seasons in the NBA, Allen has averaged 20.5 points in 1,022 games. He ranks second in NBA history in three-pointers made (2,444) and attempted (6,176).

MySportsbook.com refunds all bets on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay from NFL week one.

(September 14) – Week one of NFL action saw three teams go scoreless for the first time since 1977.  Another four were unable to get a touchdown and almost half of the underdogs covered the spread. Those three teams saved bettors at MySportsbook.com from losing out completely, thanks to the company’s unique NFL Shutout Rule -- which ensures that if the team you backed goes scoreless, your wager is refunded.

Sportsbook refunded tens of thousands of dollars to customers who bet on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay, the three teams that stunk up the field so badly that their fans and backers never had a chance to get up from their couches and cheer.  In the spirit of the low scoring start to the season, odds makers at the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino have set odds on how many total shutouts there will be this season. 

MySportsbook.com has posted updated sports betting lines for week two of the season.  Ben Roethlisberger’s health status is still questionable, so Willie Parker will try to lead Pittsburgh again as they travel to Jacksonville as a one point favorite.  After beating up on his little brother last week, Peyton Manning will look to lead the Colts to victory against Houston. Indianapolis is a whopping 13.5 favorite in the match-up.

Seattle, last year’s highest scoring team, showed the power of their defense with their gritty 9-6 win in Motown over the ravenous Lions.  They take their act back home to the comforts of Qwest Field where they will face the resurgent Arizona Cardinals.  The Seahawks are favored by a touchdown.
