Pistons finish road trip against Nets
Basketball Betting Lines
02/01/2012 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Detroit Pistons hope to solve their road issues tonight
in the finale of a four-game trek against the New Jersey Nets.
Detroit is 0-3 so far on the road trip and has lost six straight as the guest,
including Tuesdays 113-86 setback at New York in which Knicks star Carmelo
Anthony returned to the lineup to score 25 points.
Jonas Jerebko scored 15 points, while Greg Monroe had 13 points and 12
rebounds for the Pistons, losers of six straight overall and 10 of 11 games.
Detroit is just 1-11 as the guest.
"We have little chance to win when teams are shooting 50 percent from the
field or 60 percent from the field," said Pistons coach Lawrence Frank.
Frank's club will play its third straight game tonight in Newark, NJ. Frank,
of course, coached the Nets from 2004 until early on in the 2009-10 season.
The Nets have dropped back-to-back games since a season-high two-game winning
streak and hope to improve on their 2-6 home record tonight.
In Tuesday's 106-99 loss to the Indiana Pacers, Deron Williams netted a game-
high 34 points and Anthony Morrow added a season- high 28 points for New
Jersey.
"You don't want to get down 18 points and have to try to fight back,
especially against a good team like this. That's hard to do," Williams told
the team's website. "We battled back and cut it to three, I think, but just
weren't able to get over that hump."
Nets guard MarShon Brooks did not play due to a broken right little toe and
forward Mehmet Okur missed his third straight game because of a sore lower
back. DeShawn Stevenson is also hampered with a knee issue.
New Jersey and Detroit split four meetings a season ago, while the Pistons
have won 13 of the past 18 matchups in this series. However, Detroit has lost
three straight and five of its last six at New Jersey.

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).
