Tennis Betting Lines

03/18/2010 - Indian Wells, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Rafael Nadal, Andy Murray and Andy Roddick were among the top seeds to move on, while No. 2 seed Novak Djokovic was sent packing in Wednesday's fourth-round action at the upset-plagued $4.5 million BNP Paribas Open.

After World No. 1 Roger Federer was upset in third-round play on Tuesday, the second-seeded Djokovic was ousted by 20th-seeded Ivan Ljubicic, 7-5, 6-3 a day later. The veteran Croat sent the Serbian star packing in 1 hour, 44 minutes with the help of 13 aces and three service breaks.

Other top seeds competing at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden this week avoided a similar fate as third-seeded Spaniard Rafael Nadal defeated 15th-seeded American John Isner, 7-5, 3-6, 6-3; fourth-seeded Scot Andy Murray advanced, 6-2, 1-0 over Nicolas Almagro, who retired with a left ankle injury.

American seventh seed Andy Roddick got by Austria's Jurgen Melzer, the 22nd seed, 7-6 (7-5), 6-4.

Nadal, who beat Murray in last year's Indian Wells finale and titled here in 2007, will meet No. 19 Tomas Berdych in the quarterfinals after the Czech cruised past 29th-seeded Serb Viktor Troicki 6-1, 6-3.

Murray, this year's Aussie Open runner-up to Federer, will next match up with sixth-seeded Swede and last year's surprise French Open runner-up Robin Soderling, who downed No. 9 Frenchman Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, 6-3, 6-4.

Meanwhile, the 27th seed Marcos Baghdatis, who took out Federer here on Tuesday, was taken out himself by the 18th-seeded Spaniard Tommy Robredo, 7-5, 0-6, 6-4. Robredo will face off against Roddick in the quarters.

Ljubicic's quarterfinal opponent will be 21st-seeded Argentine Juan Monaco, who overcame Spaniard Guillermo Garcia-Lopez, 3-6, 6-2, 6-1 on the hardcourts here on Day 7.

This week's winner will collect $605,500.

MySportsbook.com: NBA Championship Odds

With the playoffs about two months away, the top two teams in the Western Conference are the clear cut leaders to win the NBA Championship. The Dallas Mavericks have the best record in the NBA (44-9) and have been absolutely scorching since the second week of the season.  What makes the Mavs’ record more impressive is the fact that they dropped their first four games of the season.  Currently they have won 17 out of their last 18 and are MySportsbook.com’s favorite (2-1) to win it all.  Right behind the Mavs are the Pacific leading Phoenix Suns (39-13).  Last season, the Suns lost in the Conference Finals to non-other then the Mavericks four games to two.  Of course the Suns were without center Amare Stoudemire who has is averaging 19.9 PPG and 9.5 RPG since coming back from his knee injury.  Unlike the Mavs, the Suns have struggled a bit lately having lost their last three and four out of their last seven.  Of course the main reason for their three straight loses is due to the absence of two time MVP Steve Nash, who is out with a shoulder injury.  Heads-up, the Mavs have beaten the Suns in both of their meetings this season.

In the Eastern Conference, the Pistons (32-19) are the favorites to win it all at 6-1. The addition of Chris Webber seems to have been a good move for the Pistons.  Since coming over from the 76ers, Webber has averaged 13.1 PPG and 7.3 RPG and the Pistons are 11-4.  Even though the defending champion Heat are currently on the playoff making cusp, they are the Eastern Conference team that is getting the most action to win it all (9-1).  The fact that Shaquille O’Neal is back in the starting lineup after missing 39 games probably has something to do with this.  No doubt, Shaq makes a difference when in the lineup as their winning six out of their last seven would indicate.

Just because it is the All-Star break doesn’t mean that you can’t bet on NBA hoops this weekend.  Be sure to log onto MySportsbook.com to bet on who you think will cut down the nets this July.
