Knicks visit Atlantic Division-rival Philadelphia
Basketball Betting Lines
02/21/2007 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Philadelphia 76ers conclude their seven-game homestand
tonight when they welcome the Atlantic Division rival New York Knicks to the
Wachovia Center.
The Sixers fell to 2-4 on their stand before the All-Star break when they were
defeated by the Washington Wizards, 92-85, last Wednesday. Kyle Korver led the
76ers with 18 points off the bench, while Andre Iguodala scored 14 points,
handed out 13 helpers and grabbed eight rebounds.
Andre Miller and Rodney Carney each contributed 13 points and Samuel Dalembert
donated 11 points with 17 rebounds as Philadelphia dropped its third straight
contest.
Philadelphia is currently 9-15 at home this year, but will play its next two
tilts on the road, starting with a game in Charlotte on Friday.
The Knicks were just in action on Tuesday when they recorded a 100-94 win over
Orlando behind 20 points each by Jamal Crawford and Eddy Curry.
Quentin Richardson added 15 points and David Lee had 14 points and 16 boards
for the Knicks, who have won four of their last six. Stephon Marbury also had
14 points.
The Knicks, who are 10-17 on the road this season, now find themselves just
three games out of a playoff spot. The team will return home to host Milwaukee
on Friday.
The teams have split two meetings so far this season. Philadelphia won the
first matchup on December 23 before the Knicks snapped a four-game series
losing streak with a 106-99 win on January 10.
The 76ers have won four in a row at home against the Knicks.

Marlins could start season without No. 2 starter Johnson
JUPITER, Fla. -- The Foorida Marlins are preparing for the likelihood that right-hander
Josh Johnson won't be ready when the season starts April 2.
Grapefruit League action starts Wednesday, but Johnson, penciled in as the No. 2 starter, hasn't even thrown off a mound at full speed since September. He's experienced some soreness in his right forearm.
MySportsbook.com have the Marlins listed with baseball betting lines at +800 to win the NL East this season .
''You guys know the math. If he's not on the hill then he becomes an opening day roster issue,'' manager Fredi Gonzalez said Saturday. ''We're borderline now.''
Johnson, who finished 12-7 with a 3.10 ERA in 2007, was supposed to throw on flat ground Saturday. That was canceled when he woke up with pain.
He played catch on Wednesday with no pain but felt discomfort in a throwing session on Thursday. He's expected to try again Sunday.
''Like we always said from the very beginning, we're going to take it easy on him,'' Gonzalez said. ''He didn't feel right, so we shut him down. We're going to take it back to step one and see where we're at.''
Among the candidates to take Johnson's spot in the rotation are left-hander Chris George and right-handers Yusmeiro Petit and Jose Garcia.
Right-hander Sergio Mitre, who missed most of last season with arm and shoulder problems, also is behind.
With Johnson's status doubtful, Gonzalez said right-hander Ricky Nolasco will stay in the rotation and no longer will be considered a candidate for closer.
