Nets add G Farmar
Basketball Betting Lines
07/11/2010 -
East Rutherford, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New Jersey Nets have agreed in
principle to a contract with free agent guard Jordan Farmar.
Per team policy, terms of the agreement were not released, but the Newark
Star-Ledger reports the pact is for three years and $12 million. It hinges on
Farmar passing a physical.
"Jordan will be an excellent complement to Devin (Harris) in the backcourt,"
said Nets president Rod Thorn. "He comes to the Nets with championship
pedigree, which will prove to be invaluable to his teammates."
Farmar was a member of the Lakers' back-to-back NBA championship teams the
past two seasons as a valuable contributor off the bench.
In 82 regular-season games last season, Farmar averaged 7.2 points, 1.6
rebounds and 1.5 assists over 18 minutes per contest. The 23-year-old shot
37.6 percent from beyond the arc, hitting 86 three-pointers.
Farmar added 4.6 points per game and 20 total threes during LA's 23-game march
to its second straight title. The UCLA product has career per game averages of
6.9 points, 2.1 assists and 1.8 boards while shooting 35.9 percent on threes
over his four-year pro tenure. He's made two starts in 301 career games.

March Madness odds and printable March Madness brackets
With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
