Jermaine O'Neal officially headed to BostonBasketball Betting Lines07/14/2010 - Boston, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Boston Celtics have signed center/forward Jermaine O'Neal. As per team policy, no terms of the deal were announced. However, according to a report in last week's Boston Globe, O'Neal agreed to the mid-level exception of $5.7 million for the 2010-11 campaign. O'Neal spent last season with the Miami Heat and averaged 13.6 points with 6.9 rebounds in 70 games, all starts. He joined the Heat in a February 2009 trade with Toronto. "When the opportunity arose for me to join an organization like the Celtics, I could not refuse," O'Neal said. "I cannot wait to get to Boston and start to practice with the rest of the team in pursuit of a championship." The 31-year-old veteran is a six-time All-Star who entered the NBA straight out of high school in 1996 and spent his first four seasons with Portland. He then played eight years for Indiana and owns career averages of 14.2 points and 7.5 rebounds in 863 games over 14 seasons.

MySportsbook.com and Kentucky Derby Offer Bonuses Well, not quite $1 million, but MySportsbook.com is offering a 75% rebate for Kentucky Derby lines. Check out the exclusive horse racing bonus for all the details. According to MySportsbook.com, the favorites for Saturday’s Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky are: Curlin (+250); Street Sense (+500); Scat Daddy (+700); Circular Quay (+750); and Nobiz Like Shobiz (+800). Derby organizers announced this week that there will be a $1-million bonus at the 2007 Kentucky Derby odds if the first-place horse wins by more than 6 1/2 lengths – the margin of Barbaro's victory last year. The bonus would be divided Saturday among the winning trainer, jockey, owner and a charity, with each receiving 25 percent. The designated charity is the Barbaro Memorial Fund. ''It's certainly creative, it's certainly fun and it has something for the horsemen, which we always want to embrace,'' Churchill Downs president and chief executive Robert Evans said at a news conference. ''What's really cool is it will force us to remember Barbaro.'' Arkansas Derby winner Curlin – unbeaten in three career races – tries to overcome both those obstacles in Saturday's 133rd Derby. ''We're not running against history,'' trainer Steve Asmussen said Monday. ''We're running against who they load up.'' Six other horses have run in the Derby without benefit of 2-year-old races and with three or fewer starts. The best any of them managed was a sixth-place finish by Showing Up last year. ”He exudes confidence and he's got a great presence about him,'' the trainer said. ''I feel great about the position we're in. He's not worried about anything, why should you be?'' For complete odds on the Kentucky Derby, visit MySportsbook.com.
