Heat claim F Jones off waivers
Basketball Betting Lines
08/05/2008 -
Miami, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Miami Heat announced on Tuesday that the
club claimed forward Bobby Jones off waivers.
The oft-traveled Jones was waived by the New York Knicks less than 24 hours
after they acquired the forward's services on July 28. The Knicks sent forward
Renaldo Balkman and cash considerations to the Denver Nuggets for Jones,
guard Taurean Green, and a second-round draft choice in 2010, but the Knicks
cut both players while trying to revamp their roster.
Jones recently completed just his second season after Minnesota selected him
in the second round (37th overall) of the 2006 draft, but the 6-foot-7, 215-
pound forward has already played with six different teams.
He appeared in 44 games for Philadelphia in 2006-07, then averaged 3.8 points
in just more than 11 minutes per game this past season while playing for
Memphis, Houston, San Antonio, the Nuggets, and the Heat.
Jones appeared in six games with Miami last season, averaging 8.0 points and
4.0 rebounds during that span.

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL lines
Now that the 2007 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 2007 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.
