It's Elementary: Watson goes for 40 as Warriors crush Kings

Basketball Betting Lines

02/18/2010 - Oakland, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - C.J. Watson scored a career-high 40 points while pulling down seven rebounds and dishing out six assists, as the Golden State Warriors demolished the Sacramento Kings, 130-98.

Anthony Morrow added 25 points, five rebounds, and five assists for the Warriors, who have won two of three since a nine-game skid. Stephen Curry donated 24 points, a career-high 15 assists and six rebounds.

Devean George had 16 points off the bench for Golden State, which shot 51.5 percent from the field.

The Warriors were without star guard Monta Ellis for a fourth straight game due to a sprained left knee. Ellis is considered day-to-day.

"I just try and go out there and play, and play aggressive," Watson said. "I knew Monta (Ellis) wasn't playing so I just knew I had to pick up the scoring load and just try and get some points in transition. Shots fell for me and we won so that's all I care about."

Tyreke Evans finished with 17 points, 10 assists and five boards for the Kings, who have dropped two straight following a two-game win streak. Jason Thompson chipped in 17 points and 15 rebounds off the bench.

Donte Greene added 15 points for Sacramento, which shot 42.2 percent from the floor.

Trailing 29-24 with over 1 1/2 minutes left in the first quarter, the Warriors took total control by bridging the first and second periods with an amazing 42-7 run.

Watson ignited Golden State by scoring the first six points of the burst. He had a total of 13 points during the surge, which Anthony Tolliver capped with a trey for a 66-36 margin with two minutes remaining until halftime. The Warriors made five shots from beyond the arc during the impressive run.

Golden State outscored the Kings 42-16 in the second to build a comfortable 72-45 lead at the break. The Warriors cruised to victory in the second half.

Golden State's franchise record for most points scored in the second quarter is 44...Sacramento and Golden State split four meetings this season...The Warriors made 12-of-24 three-pointers...The Kings turned the ball over 17 times...Evans' 10 assists tied a career high.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup

September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com.  The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans. 

Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to  name a  few.  Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR.  They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.

The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer.  Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
