Nets sign Farmar, Outlaw and PetroBasketball Betting Lines07/14/2010 - East Rutherford, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New Jersey Nets have signed guard Jordan Farmar, forward Travis Outlaw and center Johan Petro. According to team policy, no terms of the deals were announced. Farmar was a member of the Lakers' back-to-back NBA championship teams the past two seasons as a valuable contributor off the bench. In 82 regular-season games last season, Farmar averaged 7.2 points, 1.6 rebounds and 1.5 assists over 18 minutes per contest. The 23-year-old shot 37.6 percent from beyond the arc, hitting 86 three-pointers. Farmar added 4.6 points per game and 20 total threes during LA's 23-game march to its second straight title. The UCLA product has career per game averages of 6.9 points, 2.1 assists and 1.8 boards while shooting 35.9 percent on threes over his four-year pro tenure. He's made two starts in 301 career games. The Newark Star-Ledger has reported that Farmar's deal is for three years and $12 million. The 25-year-old Outlaw was taken with the 23rd overall pick in the 2003 draft by Portland and played six-plus seasons with the Trail Blazers before getting dealt to the Los Angeles Clippers in February. In 34 games -- six starts -- with both teams in 2009-10, Outlaw combined to average 9.1 points and 3.6 rebounds. For his career, he has appeared in 400 contests, starting 32, and has averaged 9.5 points and 3.4 rebounds.

Academy Award Betting Odds for Best Picture Offer Great Value If there is any category that is not an obvious win for any one nominee in this year's Academy Awards, it would be for Best Picture. Sure the Departed is a 5/7 favorite, but that's hardly anything when we look at Helen Mirren and her "out-of-reach" 1 to 40 odds (which means you would win a whopping $1 for every $40 bet). For value, take a look at MySportsbook.com Oscars betting odds on my personal favorite, The Queen - a remarkable 12 to 1 long shot. The film hasn't won any pre-awards for Best Picture (compared to The Departed and Little Miss Sunshine), but there is a tremendous following and it is a strong enough film to warrant a surprise win. TV Guide advises Oscar watchers should be cautioned not to discount the drama "Babel" with its strong social themes about overcoming communication gaps among people of different cultures. Who is to say independently produced Little Miss Sunshine won't be this year's Crash. Last year, Crash won for Best Motion Picture, shocking those who bet on gay cowboy flick, Brokeback Mountain, as the favorite to win.
