Sixers recommend Nocioni skip Worlds

Basketball Betting Lines

08/26/2010 - Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Philadelphia 76ers have advised swingman Andres Nocioni to sit out the upcoming FIBA World Championships because of a nagging ankle injury.

Nocioni has yet to suit up for the Sixers after being acquired in a June trade with Sacramento that saw longtime center Samuel Dalembert headed to the Kings.

The native Argentine has been suffering from a left ankle sprain since early August, and an MRI exam reviewed by Dr. Jack McPhilemy of Main Line Health Services brought about a recommendation that Nocioni stop all basketball and impact activity until the team opens training camp at the end of September.

It's expected Nocioni will undergo a follow-up MRI upon his return to Philadelphia.

Over 449 career NBA games, 185 of those starts, Nocioni averages 11.3 points, 4.7 boards and 1.3 assists while shooting 37.5 percent from three-point range.

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.

Saints +6 @ Colts -6
