MLB Betting: San Diego Padres vs New York Mets Live Odds

San Diego Padres vs New York Mets Live MLB Betting Odds: Once NL West leaders, the San Diego Padres are now a game back of the Los Angeles Dodgers but they have a golden opportunity to get back on track with a double-header against the New York Mets tonight.
Last night’s game was rained out.

In the Padres’ last nine games overall against the Mets, they are 6-3 straight up and in their last 11 road games vs. the Metropolitans, there have been 8 Overs, 2 Unders and a Push.

In Game 1, an afternoon affair, the home side Mets will send Johan Santana to the mound while Mat Latos goes for the Padres.

Santana is 5-1 straight up in his last six home games and in Latos’ last nine games, there have been 3 Overs and 6 Unders.

The second game will go in the evening with the Padres listed at -102 while the Mets are -118 and the Over/Under is set at 8.

Jon Garland will start Game 2 for San Diego but has been horrible in his last 20 road games, going 5-15 SU but the money could be on the Under as the same 20 games have seen only 5 Overs and 15 Unders.

Jonathon Niese starts for the Mets and in his last six home games, the Mets have gone 5-1 SU.

NBA Finals Betting – Boston Celtics vs Los Angeles Lakers Live Odds

It was one of their most disappointing performances of the playoffs. The Boston Celtics had a glorious oppportunity to grab momentum and an NBA finals betting series lead on Tuesday night. It was not to be, as the Los Angeles Lakers were consistent throughout the game and played strong defense down the stretch. Sports Betting has the odds on Game 4 NBA playoff betting.

Coming in to NBA finals betting, no one expect Derek Fisher to be a determining factor in the series. Well, if we didn’t think so going in, we certainly are aware of the possibility now. Fisher was big in the Suns series and has come up even bigger in this series. His three-point play (layup and the foul) in the final minute sealed the deal in Game 2. Boston has to start accounting for his shot from the outside and his ability to get to the basket. But most importantly, Fisher is drawing key fouls on the Boston starters. He really has been the x-factor thus far.

As for the Boston, the Celtics basketball betting odds aren’t going to get better unless Paul Pierce starts being a factor. The 2008 NBA finals MVP has not dominated for any stretch yet in this series. The Celtics desperately need some outside scoring to draw out the Lakers defenders. Despite being the hero of Game 2, Ray Allen had a horrible Game 3 performance, routinely missing open shots. If neither Pierce nor Allen are going to score, it will be a short series.

Sports Betting features the Celtics as -3.5 NBA betting favorites. The Lakers are +150 on the basketball moneyline, while Boston is -170 for basketball betting aficionados.

On the plus side for Los Angeles, they got more out of Lamar Odom in Game 3 than they did in the first two games combined. In addition, they didn’t need Kobe Bryant to take over the fourth quarter, either.

As for Boston, they got the best effort of the postseason from Kevin Garnett. He led the Celtics in scoring in Game 3 and will look to keep his strong play going in Game 4.

Expect a close game coming down the wire. And expect a desperate Boston club to play their best game of the series. Bet the Celtics on the money line.

NHL Playoffs: Blackhawks Win The 2010 Stanley Cup

After a long, arduous and rigorous season, the Chicago Blackhawks are your Stanley Cup Champions. And after a 49-year drought, the Blackhawks are once again on top of the NHL.

A lot of betting fans banked on the Blackhawks at the beginning of the season as they were a young, talented team that was set to improve. On top of that, they made it to the Conference Finals last year and were stung by the veteran Detroit Red Wings. But in 2010, the Blackhawks were the team to beat and nobody could stop them.

On Wednesday night, it was a back-and-forth affair as the Blackhawks held a 3-2 lead over the Philadelphia Flyers heading into the third period. But then the pesky Scott Hartnell tied with just under four minutes to go and it looked as if momentum was on the Flyers side. They continued to press but Blackhawks goalie Antti Niemi robbed Jeff Carter with the save of the game as overtime approached. In the extra frame, Patrick Kane snuck a bad angle shot past Michael Leighton and even though the red light didn’t come on right away, the Blackhawks immediately began to celebrate.

Marian Hossa was graciously happy after failing to win the Stanley Cup the last two seasons. Online betting fans saw him play with the Pittsburgh Penguins in 2008, who lost in the Finals to the Red Wings. Then he signed with the Red Wings in the offseason only to lose in the Cup Finals to his former team, the Pittsburgh Penguins. After making it back to the Finals for a third year, he finally received a drink for the big, silver mug.

It will also mark a banner year for a few Canadians on the Blackhawks squad, such as captain Jonathan Toews, Brent Seabrook and Duncan Keith, who all won a Gold Medal in the 2010 Olympics as well.

NCAAF Betting: Two-year postseason ban for USC Football from NCAA

Maybe Lane Kiffin should’ve stayed at Tennessee.

According to an ESPN report, the University of Southern California (USC) Trojans’ football team is about to be imposed with sanctions, which include a two-year ban from bowl games, a reduced number of scholarships and in addition, the football team will also forfeit wins from 2004.

The NCAA is disciplining USC football because of allegations against Trojan alumnus and current New Orleans Saints RB Reggie Bush.

The L.A. Times says that Bush and his parents are accused of accepting improper gifts — including a house in San Diego that was allegedly owned by a company that sought to represent the RB when he entered the NFL.

Bush could also forfeit his 2005 Heisman Trophy award.

Pete Carroll, who served as USC football coach from 2001 to 2009 and coached Bush, left for the NFL’s Seattle Seahawks back in January.

The NCAA could make its ruling official on Thursday and USC would have an opportunity to appeal.

This isn’t the the only time that USC has been disciplined recently; the university banned its basketball team from the postseason and forfeited wins from the 2007/08.

The USC Trojans are currently listed at +1000 to win the BCS title this upcoming season but that is surely subject to change.
