Gallinari and Knicks squeak past AtlantaBasketball Betting Lines03/08/2010 - New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Danilo Gallinari made four three-pointers and finished with a game-high 27 points, as the New York Knicks escaped with a 99-98 win over the Atlanta Hawks at Madison Square Garden. David Lee contributed a double-double with 19 points and 13 rebounds, while Al Harrington went for 14 points off the bench for the Knicks, who were able to recover from a 113-93 loss to New Jersey on Saturday. New York, which had lost four of its last five coming into the contest, made 10-of-15 three-pointers after setting an NBA record by going 0-for-18 from three-point range in the setback to the Nets. Josh Smith had a team-best 25 points to go along with 10 rebounds and six assists, while Joe Johnson ended with 22 points for Atlanta, which dropped its second straight after a four-game winning streak. Al Horford, who was unable to get off the would-be game-winning shot as time expired, turned in a solid performance with 18 points and 12 rebounds. New York led by six after three quarters and its advantage ballooned to double-digits, 87-76, with 8:44 remaining thanks in part to back-to-back makes by Eddie House. With the Knicks ahead by 10 a short time later, the Hawks went on an 11-2 run to make it a 97-96 game with 2:53 left. Johnson made 1-of-2 from the free- throw line to end the rally and get Atlanta within one. Each team went cold over the next two minutes before Harrington's jumper with 50.5 seconds to play put New York up by three, 99-96. Smith's layup drew Atlanta within a point with 27.5 ticks on the clock before Toney Douglas' turnover with 7.9 seconds remaining gave the Hawks a last chance. Smith's layup was blocked by Wilson Chandler from in close with 1.7 seconds to go, but Horford's short follow-up as the buzzer sounded was initially ruled as good. However, the basket was waved off after replays clearly showed the ball had not left Horford's hands before time expired, and the Knicks held on. After a 27-27 opening quarter, things stayed close in the second with neither team able to pull away. Horford's short turnaround jumper in the last minute of the half gave the Hawks a 46-44 edge heading into the break. In the third, Sergio Rodriguez hit three straight Knicks shots to power an 8-2 run to start the period and give New York a 52-48 lead. Harrington's trey in the final minute put the hosts up 76-70 after three. Game Notes The Knicks went 3-1 against Atlanta this season and have won 16 of the last 20 meetings between the teams at the Garden...New York shot 50.6 percent, while the Hawks made 42.5 percent of their shots, but only 3-of-17 from three-point range...Jamal Crawford ended with 16 points and six rebounds for Atlanta.

The 12 men came out flat overall with Blake Lewis appearing to have the early edge after the first hour and a half. Rudy - was quite good singing "Free Ride" to start off. Randy was not impressed though. Paula thought he started off fantastic. "Never had anyone stop off so lively" said Paula but Simon (who does not like Rudy) does not feel he has a distinct voice and was not impressed either. Brandon was a little pitchy according to Randy and Paula agreed. Simon said he was a good singer but the song was "too safe" and he needs to make an impact. He was listed at +1200 odds or $1200 paid out on a $100 bet should he win the competition. Big favorite Sundance came in with a flat version of "Knights in White Satin" and the judges let him have it, including Paula. Randy claimed the song was out of pitch throughout. Korean American - and a Jenny Woo favorite - Paul Kim was up next. Another pitchy flat one but Randy said he still liked his potential. Kim at +3000 odds was said to have sung a "third rate version of that (George Michael) song" according to Simon Cowell. He sang "Careless Whisper". 22 year old Chris Richardson was up next. He was listed with +1100 odds coming in. He got the best response from the judges though Simon did not believe the vocal was that great. Nick was boring and pitchy. Simon didn't think he was that bad though and predicted he would be back next week. Nick Pedro was a big +3000 dog coming into this competition. Beat boxer Blake Lewis was listed with early +1000 odds or $1000 payout on a $100 bet if he were to become the next American Idol winner odds . These of course were the early odds. He was considered original for picking an "odd song". He did not beat box and the judges felt it was the best vocal of the night. Sanjaya came in as the second biggest favorite after Chris Sligh but his performance Tuesday night was not very good. Chris Sleigh was the early favorite at +450 odds. Great voice and a great sense of humor. He's a real standout. Randy felt it was on point but maybe ahead of the chorus a little bit. Simon Cowell said he felt like he was in some "sort of weird student gig". Jared Cotter followed. He was listed with +2000 odds early on to win the competition. The judges felt he needs to take more risks but looked good. Phil - this season's military favorite - came into this competition with +1200 odds to win the competition. He was the last to perform. He was certainly strong enough to get through this stage of the competition and perhaps the best one after a shaky start. Tomorrow night, the ladies perform and I sure hope they do a better job than the boys. Check out all the American Idol betting odds here.
