11/20/2008 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Allen Iverson and the Detroit Pistons will try to knock off another NBA giant when they visit the defending champion Boston Celtics tonight in a battle of Eastern Conference powerhouses.
The Pistons have won four of their last five games, including victories over the Lakers, Suns and Cavaliers. In Wednesday's 96-89 win versus Cleveland at The Palace, Iverson finished with 23 points, four steals and four assists to help end the Cavs' eight-game winning streak.
Rasheed Wallace scored 21 points and grabbed 15 rebounds for the Pistons, who will put their 5-2 road record on the line Thursday. Richard Hamilton chipped in 15 points and five assists in last night's win.
Boston, which eliminated the Pistons from the playoffs last year, has won two straight and eight of nine games. It improved to 10-2 this season with Tuesday's 110-101 triumph against the New York Knicks at TD Banknorth Garden, where Paul Pierce ended with 22 points and eight rebounds to lead the way.
Kendrick Perkins had 16 points while Rajon Rondo and Ray Allen both scored 15 points for the Celtics, who played without All-Star Kevin Garnett. Garnett sat out after being suspended one game for hitting Milwaukee's Andrew Bogut during a 102-97 overtime win on Saturday. Garnett is expected to return tonight.
The Celtics are 6-1 as the host this season and handed Detroit an 88-76 setback on November 9 at The Palace of Auburn Hills.
Boston has won three straight in this series, but the Pistons are 14-4 in the previous 18 matchups.
Detroit has won seven of nine trips to Beantown.

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.
The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.
MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.
Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
