Report: Bobcats sign Kwame Brown
Basketball Betting Lines
08/24/2010 -
Charlotte, NC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Charlotte Bobcats have reportedly
reunited former No. 1 pick Kwame Brown and new team owner Michael Jordan.
The Charlotte Observer reports the Bobcats have brought in Brown on a one-
year, $1.3 million contract. Jordan, then part owner and president of
basketball operations for the Washington Wizards, made Brown the No. 1 pick in
2001 as the first high school player ever taken with the first selection.
Brown's career quickly spiraled into disappointment with the 10th-year pro
never topping a 10.9-point and 7.4-rebound output in 2003-04. He went on to
play for the Lakers and Grizzlies after four mediocre years in Washington and
is coming off a two-year stint with the Pistons.
The 6-foot-11 center averaged 3.3 points and 3.7 rebounds over 48 games last
season, almost primarily as a reserve. He started 30 of 58 games for Detroit a
year earlier, but managed only 4.2 points and 5.0 boards.
In 510 career games, including 217 starts, Brown has posted 6.7 points and 5.4
rebounds per game.

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.
