David Lee on his way to Warriors in sign-and-trade
Basketball Betting Lines
07/09/2010 -
Oakland, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Golden State Warriors have acquired
forward/center David Lee in a sign-and-trade with the New York Knicks.
The Warriors sent forwards Kelenna Azubuike, Anthony Randolph and Ronny Turiaf
and a 2012 second-round draft pick to New York while signing Lee to a reported
six-year, $80 million contract.
Lee, 27, has averaged a double-double three of the past four seasons and put
up a career-high 20.2 points to go with 11.7 rebounds and 3.6 assists in 81
games for the Knicks during the 2009-10 campaign.
The 6-foot-9, 250-pound University of Florida product made the Eastern
Conference All-Star team last year and owns career averages of 13.0 points and
9.6 boards over 368 contests -- all with New York.
"David Lee is a terrific basketball player and an All-Star," said Warriors
general manager Larry Riley. "His skill-set addresses two areas where we need
to improve: rebounding and passing, plus, we know he will score. He is a
proven talent in this league and we like the way that his talents fit with the
other core players on our roster."
Azubuike had his 2009-10 season cut short after suffering a torn patella
tendon in his left knee nine games in. The 26-year-old was coming off a season
in which he averaged 14.4 points and five boards.
Randolph, a 6-foot-11, 225-pounds forward, averaged 11.6 points and 6.5
rebounds in his second season with the Warriors after being selected 14th
overall in the 2008 draft.
Turiaf, who has played in a reserve role through most of his five-year career,
averaged 4.9 points and 4.5 rebounds in 42 games for the Warriors last
season.

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
