Basketball Betting Lines
11/19/2008 -
Oakland, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Anthony Morrow scored 25 points, including the
three game-clinching free throws in the final seconds, to give the Golden State Warriors a 111-106 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers.
Stephen Jackson had 20 points and eight assists for the Warriors, who won two
straight for the first time this season. Corey Maggette also had 20 points in
the win.
Greg Oden poured in a career-high 22 points and 10 grabbed boards for the
Blazers, who have dropped two of three. Brandon Roy totaled 22 points and nine
helpers, while Travis Outlaw and Rudy Fernandez had 13 points and seven
rebounds apiece.
The Warriors were still up three, 104-101, with under 30 seconds left as
Maggette took a three-pointer. The bid caromed off the rim and right to
C.J. Watson, who was fouled. He hit both shots for a five-point lead with 19.9
ticks left.
Roy stole an inbounds pass and went in for a layup to make it a three-point
game again. Then on the next Golden State inbounds, Morrow threw the ball
away and possession went back to Portland.
Outlaw was fouled and went to the line. He hit both shots, but was whistled
for a lane violation on the second and the shot didn't count. That made it
108-106 with 5.6 ticks left.
Fernandez fouled Morrow and was also called for a technical foul on the next
Warriors inbounds, and Morrow went to the line and hit all three to make it a
five-point game.
The Blazers were up 27-24 after the first quarter, but the Warriors were
sitting on a slight 51-49 cushion at the intermission.
Nicolas Batum nailed a three-pointer to give Portland a 52-51 lead, but Golden
State came right back.
Jackson hit a pair of free throws, Morrow drained a three and Maggette dropped
in a jumper for a 58-52 Blazers lead with 7:44 showing on the clock in the
third quarter.
Two free throws from Oden in the closing seconds brought the visitors within
80-73 heading into the final 12 minutes.
A Roy three-pointer pulled the Blazers within six, Jackson then made two
free throws, but Outlaw dropped in a three-ball to cut it to 90-85 with 7:51
to play in regulation.
Two from the charity stripe by Andris Biedrins made it a seven-point game, but
Roy answered with a layup and Oden slammed home the ball following a Fernandez
missed jumper. The emphatic slam brought the score to 94-91 with six minutes
left in regulation.
