Ellis, Biedrins expected to miss Warriors' five-game road trip

Basketball Betting Lines

03/02/2010 - Oakland, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Golden State Warriors will likely be without guard Monta Ellis and center Andris Biedrins for the duration of the club's five-game road trip beginning Tuesday in Miami.

Neither traveled with the team on Monday to Miami as Ellis underwent an MRI exam on his sore back that revealed a lower back strain.

Biedrins is set to meet with Dr. William Meyers -- an expert in the field of sports hernias and athletic pubalgia -- next Monday in Philadelphia after suffering a right groin injury in Saturday's triumph over Detroit. Ellis sat Saturday with his balky back.

Ellis has already missed time this season with a left knee sprain and ankle sprain, while Biedrins was forced to miss 24 games from November-December with a sore back.

Despite the injuries, Ellis has come into his own in his fifth NBA season. His 25.7 points per game ranks sixth in the NBA, while he's also leading the team in assists (5.3 pg) and steals (2.2 pg).

Biedrins is the team's leading rebounder at 7.8 per game and is contributing averages of 5.0 points and 1.3 blocks as well.

The team signed forward Reggie Williams to a 10-day contract from the NBA's Developmental League as insurance.

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. Play this weekly NFL Football Contestto see if you can win.
