Soccer Betting Lines

07/05/2010 - New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Real Salt Lake forward Alvaro Saborio was voted Major League Soccer Player of the Week for Week 14 of the 2010 MLS season on Monday.

Saborio tallied two goals in Salt Lake's 5-0 win over the New England Revolution at Rio Tinto Stadium on Friday, extending the team's undefeated streak to nine games.

With Salt Lake leading 2-0 in the 52nd minute, the Costa Rica international added RSL's third goal of the night when he stepped in front of his defender and pounced on teammate Robbie Russell's cross inside the six-yard box, redirecting the ball past goalkeeper Matt Reis.

Despite the lead, Salt Lake continued to attack and just five minutes later Saborio put away his second goal of the game. Javier Morales drove a low ball across the box, through traffic, and Saborio steered the ball into the net with a backheel shot.

This is Saborio's second MLS Player of the Week award this season. The 28- year-old first earned the honor in Week 8 of this season after scoring twice in a May 13 defeat of the Houston Dynamo. Saborio went on to collect the Player of the Month award for May as well.

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.
