Webber's tip-in spoils Big Ben's return to MotownBasketball Betting Lines02/26/2007 - Auburn Hills, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Richard Hamilton poured in 22 points, but it was Chris Webber's tip-in with 2.2 seconds left in regulation that lifted Detroit over Chicago, 95-93, at the Palace of Auburn Hills. Webber, who finished with 21 points and nine rebounds, got a hold of the ball and scored the deciding basket after Chauncey Billups put up a jumper. With one last chance for the win, Ben Gordon missed a three-pointer from the left wing to end the game. Billups ended with 15 points and dished out nine assists, while Tayshaun Prince added 14 points and grabbed nine boards for the Pistons, who have won four in a row. "Rip (Hamilton) kind of got us going, he had the hot hand there and we tried to get him some touches and he was able to create," Prince said. "We got second and third opportunities on the offensive glass." The game marked the return of former Piston Ben Wallace to Detroit. Wallace, who spent the last six seasons in Detroit before joining Chicago this past offseason, helped the Pistons win the NBA title in 2004. The four-time Defensive Player of the Year, who was booed each time he touched the ball, finished with six points and eight rebounds. "I wanted them to get louder because I know that they can get louder than that," Wallace said. "I've played here for six years and I know how loud this place can be, I wanted to see them get excited and get a little more involved in the game. It really doesn't bother me that much." Gordon netted 21 points and P.J. Brown had 19 points with 12 boards for the Bulls, who had a three-game winning streak halted. Luol Deng scored 18 points and grabbed eight boards, while Chris Duhon donated 12 points in defeat. Deng's tip-in put Chicago on top 27-25 after one quarter of play. Midway through the second, Detroit went on a 9-2 spurt, highlighted by five points from Billups to go up by four with 4:20 left. The Bulls, though, responded with a 13-1 burst, capped by Duhon's running jumper and led 53-45 at halftime. Chicago continued to sizzle in the third, scoring 10 of the first 12 points in the frame for a 16-point advantage. Then, trailing by 14, the Pistons ripped off 12 straight points to close within two, 69-67 with 1:27 remaining. A see-saw battle ensued in the fourth quarter until Webber broke an 83-83 contest with a hook shot with 5:24 to play. Prince's hook shot then gave the Pistons a seven-point edge with just under two minutes left. However, the Bulls came right back and tied it at 93 on seven consecutive points by Gordon. Game Notes Chicago's Kirk Hinrich had six points and eight assists...Detroit shot 38 percent from the floor...The Bulls finished 48 percent shooting...The Pistons have won seven of nine and 16 of the last 19 in the series...This marked Flip Saunders' 100th win as Pistons coach.

Super Bowl XLIII betting odds at online bookmaker MySportsbook.com have the Steelers listed as an early -6.5 against the spread favorite.Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds Pittsburgh earned their passage to the big game by beating their division rival, the Baltimore Ravens, 23-14 in yesterday's AFC Championship Game. The Steelers jumped on Baltimore early, building a 13-0 first half lead, and never let up on their way to a fairly easy win. Although the Ravens did close to within two points in the fourth quarter, it never appeared as if they had enough offense to pull off the upset. The Steelers dominating defense held Baltimore to a total of 198 yards while allowing them to convert just three third downs in 13 attempts. Pittsburgh also forced quarterback Joe Flacco into three interceptions, one of which safety Troy Polamalu returned fourty yards for a touchdown. The Cardinals, by far the playoff team with the longest odds to reach Super Bowl XLIII, did so yesterday with a 32-25 upset of the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship. Arizona charged out of the gates and built a 24-6 halftime lead that had the Eagles venerable defense reeling. Quarterback Kurt Warner and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald did most of the damage, connecting on three first half touchdowns. Arizona, however, could not sustain their momentum and the Eagles took a 25-24 with 10:45 left to play in the fourth. The Cardinals, with the franchise's first Super Bowl appearance hanging in the balance, mounted a fourteen play, 72 yard touchdown drive that consumed 7:52 off the clock. Warner hit running back Tim Hightower on a short screen for the go-ahead, game clinching score that will forever live in Cardinal infamy.
