Sixers sizzle again by slamming Suns

Basketball Betting Lines

02/09/2009 - Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Thaddeus Young deposited 25 points and rookie Marreese Speights scored a career-high 24, as the Philadelphia 76ers cruised to a relatively easy 108-91 victory over the Phoenix Suns.

The Sixers have won three straight since being struck with the news that offseason acquisition Elton Brand will miss the rest of the season with a torn labrum in his right shoulder.

Speights, who figures to see extended time with Brand's injury, shot 11-of-16 from the floor to go with seven rebounds on his career night. Andre Iguodala finished with 22 points and seven assists, and Andre Miller filled the stat sheet with seven points, nine boards and six helpers for the victors.

Phoenix had won three of four entering play, but was coming off a hard-fought 107-97 triumph at Detroit on Sunday. Steve Nash, who had 21 assists against the Pistons, logged just two points with eight helpers against the Sixers.

Amare Stoudemire tallied a team-high 19 points, while Jason Richardson ended with 16. Shaquille O'Neal was held in check with just seven points and 10 boards in defeat.

Young's 14 points sparked the hosts to a 30-25 edge after 12 minutes.

Speights scored eight straight points at one juncture in the second frame. A pair of buckets came from hook shots, one off an alley-oop pass from Lou Williams and the last on a pull-up jumper for a 49-35 Sixers lead around the five-minute mark.

The Suns had 12 turnovers in the first half and were behind 55-44 at the break. The visitors cleaned up their mistakes in the third quarter but couldn't keep Philly from scoring at will, eventually trailing 80-66 with 12 minutes left.

Phoenix rested most of its starters in the fourth, and the Suns' reserves never cut their deficit into single digits.

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP

With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at MySportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.

This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.

There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.
