AP source: Cavs sign Lowry to offer sheet

Basketball Betting Lines

07/14/2010 -

CLEVELAND (AP) -A person familiar with the move says the Cleveland Cavaliers have signed restricted free agent guard Kyle Lowry to an offer sheet.

The Cavs have offered Lowry, a reserve for Houston, a three-year contract, said the person who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the Rockets have seven days to match Cleveland's package.

Cleveland is looking to bolster its roster after losing free agent superstar LeBron James, who was sent to Miami in a sign-and-trade deal. The Cavs also lost center Zydrunas Ilgauskas, who is following James to the Miami Heat.

A five-year veteran, Lowry is a strong defender and could back up Mo Williams at the point. He averaged 9.1 points and 4.5 assists last season.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press.

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL lines


Now that the 2008 NFL schedule is finally out, it is only matter-of-course for lines on “Week 1” to follow.  Of course MySportsbook.com is the first to churn out odds for the NFL’s inaugural week for the upcoming season.   Expect a lot of fireworks the first Thursday night of the season as the defending champion Indianapolis Colts face off against the surprise of the 2008 season, the New Orleans Saints.  These teams were ranked #1 and #3 in the NFL respectively a season ago so a high scoring affair could be in order.  As of now, the Colts will be giving 6 points to the Saints; keep in mind the Saints were one of the better road teams last season going 6-3 SU and 7-2 ATS.  The first Monday night of the season will again provide a “double feature”. Coming off a disappointing season, the Cincinnati Bengals will look to get back to playoffs and improve their public image as they take on the AFC North favorite Baltimore Ravens.  The second game features a couple of teams that haven’t had too much success recently but each could make some noise if the NFC is as weak as it was last year as the San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals. The most interesting game of the opening week will feature the NFC champion Bears as they hit the road to take on the NFL’s top team during last year’s regular season, the San Diego Chargers.
