Basketball Betting Lines
07/19/2010 -
East Rutherford, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Former NBA head coaches Sam Mitchell
and Larry Krystkowiak have been named assistants for Avery Johnson with the
New Jersey Nets.
John Loyer, Popeye Jones and Tom Barrise were also named to Johnson's staff.
"Avery has assembled a staff that brings a wealth of NBA experience to the
sidelines," said new Nets general manager Billy King. "Their collective
knowledge of the game, gained from both playing and coaching in the league,
will be an invaluable asset to the head coach as well as our players."
Mitchell will be the lead assistant. He was the 2006-07 NBA Coach of the Year
with Toronto and led the Raptors to a record of 156-189 with a pair of playoff
appearances in his four-plus seasons.
Krystkowiak has 12 years of coaching experience in the NBA, CBA and college.
He was a head coach with Milwaukee for part of the 2006-07 season and the
entire 2007-08 campaign, posting a record of 31-69.
Loyer will return for a second season as a Nets assistant after spending four
years in the same capacity with Philadelphia. Jones was a member of Dallas'
player development staff for four seasons after an 11-year NBA playing career.
Barrise will start his 15th season with the Nets and his seventh full year as
an assistant coach.

NFL Football Betting : Odds on NFL Division to Win the Super Bowl
NFL Super Bowl Betting
The AFC South and the NFC East are the favorite divisions to have the next Super Bowl champ among them in the NFL betting odds. But more down to the point, these football odds are in favor of the Indianapolis Colts, by far the strongest team in the AFC South, and the Dallas Cowboys of the NFC East.
Most sports fans would agree that these two teams top the list to win it all before the season even begins. In the BetUS Sportsbook football futures, the Colts are +800 in the odds to win the Super Bowl, while the Cowboys are sitting at +1000 and the Super Bowl XLIV champions New Orleans Saints at +900. In the AFC South, the Colts won the division for five straight years after the 2002 realignment, before the Tennessee Titans won it in 2008. But the Colts came back strong in 2009 to win the division again en route to the Super Bowl. The Cowboys are the favorite to win the NFC East, as well as to advance far into the post season. The Cowboys won the division last season before their horrendous loss in the NFC Divisional playoff to Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings. But the ‘Boys will take that loss humbly and be ready for the playoffs this time around.
The NFC South is also very strong, at +600 in the NFL futures, considering that it is home to the defending Super Bowl champions. However, some predictions have the Atlanta Falcons with possibilities of claiming the divisional title this season in place of the Saints, as no team has won back-to-back division championships since the division realignment took place. Let’s not overlook the AFC North at +500. As TO goes to Cincinnati to join Chad OchoCinco and Adam “Pac-Man” Jones, this team looks to claim the division title again. And it is likely they will do so. The Bengals lost in the AFC Wild Card spot in a hard-fought battle against the New York Jets last season. Lest not forget the Pittsburgh Steelers, the XLII Super Bowl Champions… All these teams present interesting odds and matchups for the upcoming season, but the safest and surest bet seems to be with the Colts in the AFC South and the Cowboys in the NFC East.
