Paul to meet with Hornets Monday, trade rumors swirl
Basketball Betting Lines
07/22/2010 -
New Orleans, LA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Three-time All-Star point guard Chris Paul
will reportedly sit down with management of the New Orleans Hornets on Monday,
when he's expected to express his wishes to be traded.
Several media outlets, including the New Orleans Times Picayune, report Paul
will meet with new head coach Monty Williams and new general manager Dell
Demps.
Paul has two years remaining on his contract before he can opt out with the
Hornets. His contract will pay him about $45 million over the next three
seasons, as he has a player option for 2012-13 worth nearly $18 million.
The fourth overall pick out of Wake Forest by the Hornets in the 2005 draft,
Paul averaged 18.7 points, 10.7 assists, 4.2 rebounds, and 2.1 steals this
past season. He played in just 45 games due to various injuries.
Just prior to this year's draft, Hornets owner George Shinn released a
statement, saying Paul is the franchise's "cornerstone" and the player the
team will continue to build around.
But Paul reportedly is concerned about the Hornets' slow offseason moves this
summer. The team signed guard Luther Head earlier this month and also re-
signed backup center Aaron Gray.
Paul led the Hornets to the Western Conference semifinals in 2007-08 and the
team reached the playoffs the following season. But this past season New
Orleans went 37-45.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup
September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com. The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans.
Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to name a few. Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR. They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.
The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer. Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
