Report: Bulls agree to trade Hinrich to Wizards
Basketball Betting Lines
06/24/2010 -
Chicago, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Chicago Bulls have reportedly agreed to
trade guard Kirk Hinrich and the 17th overall pick in tonight's NBA Draft to
the Washington Wizards.
The deal can only be viewed as a salary purge to open up room for the crop of
high-priced free agents available this offseason. Hinrich was set to make $17
million over the final two years of a $47.5 million pact agreed upon at the
start of the 2006-07 season.
According to the Chicago Tribune, that would put the Bulls close to $30
million under the salary cap. The report states the Bulls would receive at
least a second-round pick in return, although, the exact compensation remains
unclear.
The deal is complicated by the fact that the Wizards can't take on Hinrich's
salary until the new salary cap figures are released for next season. The
transaction would presumably be finalized on July 8 -- the first day of the
NBA free agent signing period.
Hinrich has spent his entire seven-year pro tenure in Chicago. The former
Kansas standout started 53 of 74 games last season and averaged 10.9 points,
4.5 assists and 3.5 rebounds while shooting 37.1 percent from three-point
range.
In 514 career games with the Bulls, including 433 starts, the 29-year-old has
averaged 13.4 points, 5.8 assists, 3.4 boards and shot 37.9 percent on threes.
He's made at least 100 three-pointers in all but two of his NBA seasons.
Washington, meanwhile, would have three first-round picks including the top
overall pick and the final selection at No. 30.

Stanley Cup betting
New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.
The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.
MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.
Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
