12/30/2006 - Auburn Hills, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Darrell Armstrong knocked down a free throw with just .9 seconds remaining for his only point of the game, as the Indiana Pacers edged the Detroit Pistons, 93-92.
Jermaine O'Neal had a game-high 25 points and 13 rebounds for the Pacers, who have won four of their last five games overall. Al Harrington added 16 points and seven boards, while Stephen Jackson donated 15 points in the win.
O'Neal was probable for the game with flu-like symptoms, but came up big in Indiana's second straight win.
Chauncey Billups had 23 points and a career high 12 rebounds for the Pistons, who have lost two straight on the heels of a five-game win streak. Billups, though, had to leave the game late because of a calf injury.
Richard Hamilton had 22 points in the loss. Rasheed Wallace netted six points with seven boards while being limited to just over 21 minutes because of an illness.
O'Neal hit 1-of-2 from the free throw line with 1:25 to go to put the Pacers up 89-83 before Detroit made a late run.
A tip-in by Antonio McDyess cut the Pistons' deficit to four before Billups' three from the left corner made it 89-88 with just 18 ticks left. Billups, though, came up holding his right calf and had to sit out the rest of the game.
Jackson hit two from the charity stripe moments later, but Hamilton answered with a layup to make it 91-90 with 10 seconds to play. Danny Granger was then quickly fouled, but he left the game open as he hit only 1-of-2 from the line.
Hamilton took over and drove the line, only to be fouled by Jackson, his sixth. Hamilton hit both his free shots to even things at 92-92 with three seconds remaining.
The Pacers tossed in a long inbounds pass to Armstrong, who managed to draw a foul out of Carlos Delfino. After missing his first free throw attempt, Armstrong made good on his second try with just .9 seconds to play.
Wallace then attempted to throw the ball down court, but the inbound try ended up out of bounds to seal Detroit's fate.

Matt Kenseth And Kevin Harvick Favorites To Take NASCAR Nextel Cup Championship
(September 15)—The NASCAR season has hit the homestretch with the opening event on this year’s Chase for the Cup taking place this weekend at the Sylvania 300 at New Hampshire International Speedway. With 10 races remaining to determine the Cup Series champion, leading online sportsbook MySportsbook.com today announced odds on all 10 Chase qualifying drivers capturing the NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship.
One of the largest sportsbook sites on the Internet, MySportsbook.com currently lists the top two drivers in the point standings as the early favorites to win the Nextel Cup. Entering the Chase for the Cup with a slim five-point lead in the point standings, 2003 NASCAR champ Matt Kenseth has been made a slight favorite to win his second Cup at 7/2 betting odds. 2001 Cup Rookie of the Year Kevin Harvick has betting odds listed at 5/2 and four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon is listed at 6/1 to capture the Nextel Cup this year.
Hoping to follow in the footsteps of his legendary father who won six NASCAR titles, Dale Earnhardt Jr. stands at 8/1 to breakthrough with his first Cup victory. Staying with the family theme, MySportsbook.com lists 2005 Rookie of the Year Kyle Busch at 14/1 to succeed big brother Kurt’s 2004 NASCAR title. While Kasey Kahne was the final driver to qualify for the Chase with a third place finish last week, the oddsmakers give him a fighting chance at 10/1 mainly due to several mile-and-a-half tracks remaining on the schedule. Despite going winless on the NASCAR circuit this season, Jeff Burton enters the Chase at 5/1 to capture the Cup title. Meanwhile, rookie Denny Hamlin is 4/1 to win the championship, while veteran driver Mark Martin enters the Chase for the Cup as a 15/1 long shot to win his first NASCAR title in his 24th and final season.
MySportsbook.com will offer comprehensive Nascar betting lines on every race remaining on the Nextel Cup series including driver match-ups, props and odds to win each race. For a complete list of NASCAR odds, please visit www.MySportsbook.com.
