Game Notes

 

There were eight technical fouls called in the last 13:17 of the game.

 

Danny Granger scored 19 points and Tyler Hansbrough had 17 to lead the Pacers, who had a season-high four-game winning streak snapped.

 

Jeff Teague poured in 21 points and Ivan Johnson recorded his first career double-double with 14 points and 13 rebounds for Atlanta, which has lost consecutive games for just the second time all season.

 

Milwaukee, WI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Derrick Rose set the tone right from the opening tip Saturday, scoring 16 of his team's first 18 points as the Chicago Bulls routed the Milwaukee Bucks, 113-90. Rose finished with 26 points and 13 assists for the Bulls, who have won two straight and three of four. Luol Deng returned from a seven-game absence and scored 21 points to go with nine rebounds.

 

Lin, the second-year guard out of Harvard, scored a career-high 25 points to lead the Knicks to a 99-92 victory over the New Jersey Nets on Saturday.

 

Prior to Saturday, Lin had just 108 career points in 38 games for the Warriors and Knicks.

 

Amare Stoudemire and Tyson Chandler scored 17 points apiece but Carmelo Anthony had just 11 on 3-of-15 shooting. Still, the Knicks snapped a two-game losing streak and salvaged the end of a back-to-back-to-back stretch after losing to the Bulls on Thursday and Boston on Friday.

 

Deron Williams had 21 points and 11 assists to lead the Nets, who have lost four of five. Kris Humphries added 20 points and 12 rebounds and Jordan Farmar scored 19 off the bench.

 

The Knicks trailed by as many as 12 points in the first quarter and were down 30-20 going into the second. Lin was scoreless in 3 1/2 minutes in the frame. He had six points in the second quarter and the Knicks outscored the Nets, 26-18, to pull within two at halftime.

 

They were still down two, 72-70, going into the fourth but a 9-2 run midway through gave them the lead for good. Stoudemire and Lin led the way during the burst and New York pushed its lead as high as 11 down the stretch.

 

Cleveland, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Kyrie Irving scored 20 points, including a tough reverse layup in traffic with 15.8 seconds remaining, as the Cleveland Cavaliers held on to defeat the Dallas Mavericks, 91-88. After Irving's layup made it a three-point margin, Jason Terry missed a three- pointer from the top of the arc with 0.9 left. But following a review, the Mavericks got one final opportunity with 0.5 showing on the clock. Brandan Wright's desperation shot at the buzzer was off the mark.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect

LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet.

Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots.

Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4.
