Evans, Kings cruise past lowly Timberwolves

Basketball Betting Lines

03/14/2010 - Sacramento, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tyreke Evans came just shy of a triple double, finishing with 29 points, 11 assists and nine rebounds, and the Sacramento Kings routed the Minnesota Timberwolves, 114-100, at ARCO Arena.

Donte Greene added 19 points and eight rebounds for the Kings, who had lost four of their previous five but snuck above the .500 mark at home with a 17-16 record thus far. Jason Thompson provided 15 points and eight boards, while Carl Landry had 13 points and six rebounds in the resounding win.

Al Jefferson scored 22 points and grabbed 10 rebounds to lead the dismal Timberwolves, who have lost nine straight and 15 of 16. Wayne Ellington came off the bench to add 15 points, while Ryan Gomes contributed 14 points in defeat.

The Kings grabbed a 32-28 lead after the opening quarter, then stretched the lead to 45-33 early in the second behind an 11-2 run that ended on a Thompson reverse layup.

The lead hovered around 10 before a half-ending 8-0 burst, which gave Sacramento a 64-49 halftime lead after Evans' three-point play in the final minute.

Things only got worse for the T'Wolves in the third, when they were outscored by a 30-12 margin. The Kings scored the first 15 points of the second half, and Greene capped the burst with seven straight points for a 79-49 advantage with just under seven minutes left.

The advantage reached as high as 34 before Sacramento went into the fourth with a 94-61 lead. The Timberwolves outscored the Kings by 19 in the final quarter, but the flurry still did not pose a threat to the outcome.

Game Notes

Sacramento leads the season series, 2-1...Andres Nocioni scored 12 points for the Kings...Ramon Sessions had 13 points for Minnesota, which got 12 points from Jonny Flynn...The T'Wolves are a dismal 5-28 on the road.

American Idol Betting Odds: Season 6  

The online gambling websites are in the process of deciphering each American Idol contestant and his or her chances of winning Season 6 to come up with the early American Idol betting lines.

Tim Dalton of MySportsbook.com has been locked away in a soundproof room coming up with all the latest tallies, we are told. "American Idol has become one of the most significant betting events of the year," claims Jack Black of MySportsbook.com.  "Last year, millions were bet during the season across the globe, not just in America.

It's tough early on since we really do not have a glimpse as to how well each of these individuals will perform solo on a week-to-week basis.  It's like Week 1 of the NFL.  Pre-season means nada!

We do know the 24 finalists however.

Sanjaya Malakar is the young man whose sister failed to make it into the Top 24.  He's very low key but - unless he totally flubs - will probably win over the young girlie vote for a few weeks anyway.  He's too young to go all the way, according to Payton O'Brien. 

Brandon Rogers - Who?

Phil Stacy is the military guy who missed his daughter's birth because of the Memphis audition.  He should go a good distance.

Chris Sligh - He's got the humor and in many ways he's the Anti-American Idol much like last year's winner Taylor Hicks was.  And this is why he'll probably get pretty far in this competition.  He's chubby, white with a big curly afro....but more importantly, a great voice!  People love "real", not "real cute" to go all the way. 

"Blake Lewis should go far because of his uniqueness and looks.  He's the boy next store with a twist - he beat boxes.  But on top of this, he's a great singer, and I adore him," Payton O'Brien relayed.

A talented beat-boxer Blake Lewis was a hit during the group sing in Hollywood but Simon explained that this is a singing contest just before he told him he was “in.”

Paul Kim has caught our own roving reporter, Jenny Woo's eyes. 

"I love the fact that there is a Korean American on the show and he is bound to get more Asians tuning into the show," Woo said from her Miami Beach estate.  "There has never been a major presence of Asian-Americans on American Idol in the past.  He's a hottie with a nice voice so that should help to take him far.  Expect heavy betting action from the Asian community."

Sundance Head - He's not perfect, but he's got the personality that will take him through a few weeks, plus he's got the lineage (son of Roy Head - whose 1965 single, "Treat Her Right," hit No. 5 in the charts) 

And the others:

Rudy Cardinas
AJ Tabaldo - the 5th time is the charm
Nicolas Pedro
Chris Richardson
Jared Cotter

The girls

"Melinda Doolittle has one of the best voices," says MySportsbook.com Reporter and an acclaimed dancer in her own right, Destiney Lewis.  "It is great to see a back up singer step out like she has.  The girl needs to gain more confidence but that can also be a positive.  I think she will go far."

Alena Alexander - Those tears (she never seems to stop bawling) should get her far.

"Single mom Lakisha Jones I suspect will be a pretty big favorite entering Week 1 of the competition," says Destiny Williams.  Jones is an excellent singer and down to earth.  "She'll have a wide appeal," echoed O'Brien.

Nicole Trellis - Seems to exert confidence.

Amy Krebs - a powerful singer.

Antonella Barba
Gina Glocksen
Hailey Scanardo
Jordan Sparks
Stephanie Edwards
Leslie Hunt
Sabrina Sloan
