Turkey and Serbia move into semifinals at Worlds

Basketball Betting Lines

09/08/2010 - Istanbul, Turkey (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Ersan Ilyasova poured in 19 points and grabbed five rebounds to lead Turkey to a comfortable 95-68 win over Slovenia in the quarterfinals of the 2010 FIBA World Championship.

Turkey will meet Serbia, a dramatic quarterfinal victor earlier in the day, in the semifinals.

Ilyasova, who plays for the Milwaukee Bucks, connected on 7-of-9 shots from the floor, including 3-of-4 from three-point territory as Turkey shot a blistering 66.7-percent during the game and was never really challenged. The hosts made 22-of-31 from inside the arc and 10-of-17 from long distance.

Sinan Guler added 12 points, while Hedo Turkoglu of the Phoenix Suns, Kerem Tunceri and Omer Onan chipped in with 10 apiece for the victors, who led 50-31 at the break.

Former NBA forward Bostjan Nachbar and Sani Becirovic led Slovenia with 16 points while Primoz Brezec, a free agent after splitting last season with Philadelphia and the Bucks, added 10 points and five boards in a losing cause.

Slovenia shot a ineffective 35.7-percent from the floor in bowing out.

Meanwhile, in the first game of the day, Milos Teodosic drilled a long three-pointer with 3.1 seconds remaining to lift Serbia to a 92-89 victory over Spain.

Spain trailed throughout most of the fourth quarter, but tied it at 89-89 on a dunk by Marc Gasol with 25.8 seconds to play. After the Serbs called timeout, Teodosic worked his way free well beyond the top of the key with time running out and connected on a shot from about 27 feet.

The Spaniards turned the ball over on the ensuing inbounds play, sending the Serbs into Saturday's semifinals against the winner of Wednesday's second game between Turkey and Slovenia.

Teodosic was just 1-for-7 from beyond the arc before hitting the winning shot. He finished with 12 points, while Novica Velickovic and Marko Keselj each scored 17 in the winning effort. Nenad Krstic contributed 13 points with nine rebounds.

Juan Carlos Navarro led Spain with 27 points and Jorge Garbajosa added 18. Rudy Fernandez scored 15 and Gasol finished with 13 in defeat for the European champions.

Serbia opened a 27-23 lead after the first quarter and extended the advantage to 49-41 at halftime. Spain, though, began the second half with 10 straight points, the last two on a bucket by Navarro, to move in front 51-49.

It remained close for the rest of the third quarter and Serbia took a 67-64 edge into the fourth. The Serbs led by as many as eight in the final period until Spain rallied late.

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP

With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at MySportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.

This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.

There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.
