Basketball Betting Lines

08/27/2010 - New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New York Knicks on Friday agreed to terms with forward Patrick Ewing Jr.

Details of the contract were not released, per club policy.

The 26-year-old Ewing was originally drafted by Sacramento in the 2008 NBA Draft as the 43rd overall selection. He was then traded to Houston on August 14, 2008 as part of a multi-player deal. The Rockets dealt Ewing to the Knicks for the draft rights to center Frederic Weis.

Ewing has yet to appear in an NBA contest. He appeared in four games for the Knicks during the 2010 Summer League held in Las Vegas, Nevada, and averaged 4.8 points over 11.3 minutes per game.

Ewing is the eldest child of Knicks legend Patrick Ewing, who was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2008. Ewing played for New York from 1985 through 2000 and is the franchise's all-time leader in virtually every category, including points (23,665), rebounds (10,759), blocked shots (2,758) and games played (1,039).

Super Bowl XLIV Odds

Super Bowl XLIII isn't even a week old yet and oddsmakers have already released Super Bowl XLIV odds.

Despite the Pittsburgh Steelers winning Super Bowl 43, the New England Patriots are 8/1 favorites to win Super Bowl 44.

Bet Super Bowl XLIV Future Odds

With their 27-23 victory over the Arizona Cardinals in Super Bowl XLIII, the Steelers became the latest NFL champion. But believe it or not, oddsmakers from online sports book MySportsbook.com don't have the Steelers the favorites to win Super Bowl XLIV next season.

That honor belongs to the New England Patriots, who are 8/1 favorites to win despite not even qualify for the postseason in 2008. The Pats also have a major decision to make regarding what to do with Matt Cassel, who played well in Tom Brady's (knee surgery) absence last year but is also a free agent this offseason.

Ironically, the Steelers aren't even oddsmakers second choice to win Super Bowl 44, as the Dallas Cowboys are listed right behind the Patriots at 9/1 despite not making the playoffs themselves. Clearly oddsmakers think the public will hop back on the Cowboys' bandwagon considering the immense talent they have and the opening of a brand new stadium.

After Dallas, then comes Pittsburgh at 10/1, but they share those odds with the New York Giants, who won Super Bowl XLII. The Indianapolis Colts and San Diego Chargers round out the top six teams at 12/1, while the Baltimore Ravens (14/1), Tennessee Titans (16/1), Carolina Panthers (18/1) and Philadelphia Eagles (18/1) complete the top 10.

The NFC Champion Arizona Cardinals got no love from oddsmakers as they were established as a 30/1 long shot to win next year's Super Bowl. They share those same odds with the Chicago Bears and Tampa Bay Buccaneers – two teams that didn't even qualify for the postseason. Other long shots are the Kansas City Chiefs (100/1), Detroit Lions (100/1), St. Louis Rams (75/1) and Oakland Raiders (75/1).
