Report: Livingston's season over

Basketball Betting Lines

02/27/2007 - Los Angeles, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Los Angeles Clippers guard Shaun Livingston will reportedly miss the remainder of the season because of a severe knee injury suffered Monday night.

Livingston dislocated his left knee early in the first quarter of a 100-93 victory over Charlotte and the Los Angeles Times reported Tuesday morning that the injury will sideline the 21-year-old for the final 26 games of the campaign.

X-rays taken Monday night at the Staples Center were negative, but Livingston is expected to undergo further tests on Tuesday, including an MRI exam. The paper said an anteriogram will also be performed to determine if arteries in the leg were torn.

Livingston was driving for a layup when he landed awkwardly on his left knee, which bent backwards with the kneecap protruding to the side. He remained on the floor for a few minutes before being put on a stretcher and wheeled off the court with 8:10 remaining in the quarter.

Dr. Steven Shimoyama put the kneecap back in place at the arena.

Livingston, the fourth overall selection in the 2004 NBA Draft, is averaging 9.3 points and 5.1 assists in 54 games this season.

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL lines


Now that the 2008 NFL schedule is finally out, it is only matter-of-course for lines on “Week 1” to follow.  Of course MySportsbook.com is the first to churn out odds for the NFL’s inaugural week for the upcoming season.   Expect a lot of fireworks the first Thursday night of the season as the defending champion Indianapolis Colts face off against the surprise of the 2008 season, the New Orleans Saints.  These teams were ranked #1 and #3 in the NFL respectively a season ago so a high scoring affair could be in order.  As of now, the Colts will be giving 6 points to the Saints; keep in mind the Saints were one of the better road teams last season going 6-3 SU and 7-2 ATS.  The first Monday night of the season will again provide a “double feature”. Coming off a disappointing season, the Cincinnati Bengals will look to get back to playoffs and improve their public image as they take on the AFC North favorite Baltimore Ravens.  The second game features a couple of teams that haven’t had too much success recently but each could make some noise if the NFC is as weak as it was last year as the San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals. The most interesting game of the opening week will feature the NFC champion Bears as they hit the road to take on the NFL’s top team during last year’s regular season, the San Diego Chargers.
