Bulls take advantage of Paul injury, beat Hornets in OT
Basketball Betting Lines
01/29/2010 -
New Orleans, LA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Luol Deng scored the game-tying bucket in
the last second of regulation and finished with 26 points, and Chicago took
advantage of an injury to Chris Paul to beat New Orleans in overtime, 108-106.
The Bulls trailed by two after David West sank a layup with half a minute to
play, but West's poor inbound pass for Paul late in the game led to Deng's
follow with 0.2 seconds on the clock.
Paul appeared to injure his left knee trying to track down West's pass, and
tried to play in overtime, but was ineffective as he limped up and down the
court. The Hornets had a chance for a game-tying bucket in the final seconds
of overtime, but Darren Collison, filling Paul's role at the point, lost the
ball to seal the Chicago victory.
Derrick Rose added 18 points for the Bulls, who have won five in a row, while
Joakim Noah recorded 18 rebounds and 13 points.
West had 29 points and 14 boards for the Hornets, who had won their last two.
Paul finished with 18 points and 12 assists, while Marcus Thornton had 20
points in the loss.

Brandon Roy Favorite to Win 2007 NBA Rookie of the Year
Portland TrailBlazer’s guard, Brandon Roy, is MySportsbook.com’s overwhelming favorite to win the NBA Rookie of the Year odds.
Despite missing 20 games due to an injury earlier this season, Roy has definitely put up the best numbers of his 1st year peers. In 32 games, Roy is averaging 15.3 PPG, 4.2 boards and 3.5 assists in over 33 minutes of play per game. While most rookies breakdown as the season progresses (see Morrison), Roy is only getting stronger as his playing time and scoring average has increased each month.
With 30 or so games left in the regular season, Roy isn’t a lock for the award by any means. Other rookies are putting together some pretty impressive campaigns and a few could give Roy a run for the award with increased playing time. Heading the list is first pick, Andrea Bargnani of the Toronto Raptors. Even though he has started only two games all season, Bargnani is averaging 10.3 PPPG while shooting 35% from deep.
Randy Foye of the Minnesota Timberwolves could be set to give Roy the best competition NBA Rookie of the Year betting lines. With the benching of Mike James, Foye looks like he could be the starter in the T-Wolves backcourt for the rest of the season. So far, Foye has averaged 9 PPG and 2.4 assists in just under 21 minutes per game. With his new role of starter, Foye’s numbers will definitely increase. In his first game as the new starting guard this past Sunday, Foye had 10 points; five rebounds and 8 assists. More importantly, he logged 34 minutes of playing time; his third highest run of the season.
Adam Morrison, of the Charlotte Bobcats, was the favorite early on in the season after averaging 15+ PPG through the first month of the season. Ever since his torrid start, Morrison’s point production has declined each month. This really isn’t surprising, considering at 6’8” he only weighs 205 lbs. Obviously he will need to hit the weights big time during the off-season in order to keep from breaking down in the future.
