Clippers continue road trip in Charlotte

Basketball Betting Lines

02/11/2012 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Los Angeles Clippers continue their lengthy Grammy Road Trip by visiting the Queen City to take on the hapless Charlotte Bobcats.

Chris Paul buried a game-winning shot with 3.2 seconds remaining on Friday as the Clippers improved to 3-1 on their six-game trek with a thrilling 78-77 win in Philadelphia.

A pair of Lou Williams free throws had Philadelphia up, 77-76, with 18 seconds remaining, but Paul hit a twisting, fadeaway jumper near the foul line that proved to be the difference.

Paul finished with a game-high 24, Blake Griffin added 16 and 11 rebounds and Mo Williams scored 14. Former 76er Reggie Evans didn't score, but impacted the contest with 10 rebounds -- five offensive -- in 19 minutes of action.

"One thing I pride myself on is ball handling," said Paul. "I may not make every shot but I feel like I can get any shot that I want because of ball handling. I've always been undersized, so one thing I know is that I can create my own shot."

Los Angeles will finish its trip in Dallas, and is 6-5 as the guest this season as well as a solid 7-2 against the Eastern Conference.

Charlotte, meanwhile, is a miserable 3-23 on the year and enters tonight's contest having matched a franchise record by dropping 13 in a row.

The Bobcats' most recent loss came on Friday when a Derrick Rose-less Chicago team waltzed into Charlotte and destroyed the Bobcats, 95-64. Derrick Brown was the lone Charlotte player to reach double figures in scoring, finishing with 10 as the team matched it's other 13-game skid from Jan. 11-Feb. 1, 2006.

Kemba Walker scored nine points on 2-of-11 shooting from the floor, while Boris Diaw, Bismack Biyombo and Cory Higgins added eight points apiece.

"I don't know what it was. We just weren't in it," said Charlotte head coach Paul Silas.

Bobcats leading scorer Gerald Henderson remains out with a strained hamstring while point guard D.J. Augustin is expected to miss his 10th consecutive game tonight with an injured toe.

The Clippers, of course, are without veteran guard Chauncey Billups, who is out for the season after suffering a torn left Achillies earlier this week.

LA has won two straight and three of its last four over Charlotte.

Brandon Roy Favorite to Win 2007 NBA Rookie of the Year

Portland TrailBlazer’s guard, Brandon Roy, is MySportsbook.com’s overwhelming favorite to win the NBA Rookie of the Year odds.

Despite missing 20 games due to an injury earlier this season, Roy has definitely put up the best numbers of his 1st year peers. In 32 games, Roy is averaging 15.3 PPG, 4.2 boards and 3.5 assists in over 33 minutes of play per game. While most rookies breakdown as the season progresses (see Morrison), Roy is only getting stronger as his playing time and scoring average has increased each month.

With 30 or so games left in the regular season, Roy isn’t a lock for the award by any means. Other rookies are putting together some pretty impressive campaigns and a few could give Roy a run for the award with increased playing time. Heading the list is first pick, Andrea Bargnani of the Toronto Raptors. Even though he has started only two games all season, Bargnani is averaging 10.3 PPPG while shooting 35% from deep.

Randy Foye of the Minnesota Timberwolves could be set to give Roy the best competition NBA Rookie of the Year betting lines. With the benching of Mike James, Foye looks like he could be the starter in the T-Wolves backcourt for the rest of the season. So far, Foye has averaged 9 PPG and 2.4 assists in just under 21 minutes per game. With his new role of starter, Foye’s numbers will definitely increase. In his first game as the new starting guard this past Sunday, Foye had 10 points; five rebounds and 8 assists. More importantly, he logged 34 minutes of playing time; his third highest run of the season.

Adam Morrison, of the Charlotte Bobcats, was the favorite early on in the season after averaging 15+ PPG through the first month of the season. Ever since his torrid start, Morrison’s point production has declined each month. This really isn’t surprising, considering at 6’8” he only weighs 205 lbs. Obviously he will need to hit the weights big time during the off-season in order to keep from breaking down in the future.
