Clippers sever ties with GM Dunleavy
Basketball Betting Lines
03/09/2010 -
Orlando, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Los Angeles Clippers announced they have
severed ties with general manager Mike Dunleavy, just over a month after he
resigned as head coach.
At the time of the February 4 announcement, the Clippers disclosed Dunleavy
would remain in the front office, focusing exclusively on the team's personnel
matters. That came to a conclusion Tuesday night.
"The organization has determined that the goal of building a winning team is
best served by making this decision at this time," the Clippers said in a
statement. "The team has simply not made sufficient progress during Dunleavys
seven-year tenure. The Clippers want to win now. This transition, in
conjunction with a full commitment to dedicate unlimited resources, is
designed to accomplish that objective."
The Clippers announced Neil Olshey, presently the assistant general manager,
will assume the duties created by Dunleavy's departure. Olshey joined the
Clippers as director of player development for the 2003-04 season. He was an
assistant coach in 2004-05, and was promoted to director of player personnel
from 2005-06 through 2007-08. He assumed the role of assistant GM prior to the
start of the 2008-09 season.
The Clippers lost Tuesday night in Orlando and fell to 25-39 on the season. It
appears the team will miss the playoffs for the 12th time in 13 seasons.

Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament odds
As of February 9, MySportsbook.com has released its coveted 2007 Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament betting odds. “March Madness betting ” only a month away, the top ranked Florida Gators are favorite at 7-2 to win it all. The defending champs have not disappointed at all this season and currently have a 22-2 record and are undefeated (9-0) in SEC play. The Gators’ thrive off of their extremely balanced, experienced and versatile attack. All five starters started in last seasons National Championship game. What is most impressive with this group is their balance; the five starters all average between 10.7 and 13.6 PPG. The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.
Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country. A concern for the Tar Heels might be inexperience. Of their top four scorers/ minute earners, three are freshmen and the other is a sophomore. The rest of the regular season, the Tar Heels play only one team that is currently ranked (Duke). Their remaining opponents do combine for an impressive 107-58 record though.
Other teams that the MySportsbook.com members seem to believe will win it all include the west coasts’ top team #2 UCLA (6-1), #3 OSU behind man-child Greg Oden (8-1), and #4 Wisconsin (10-1) behind their defense which has given up 70+ points only three times all season.
