Cavs sign G Lowry to offer sheet

07/14/2010 -

CLEVELAND (AP) -Looking to rebuild without LeBron James, the Cleveland Cavaliers have signed restricted free agent guard Kyle Lowry to an offer sheet.

Lowry spent last season with Houston, where he averaged 9.1 points and 4.5 assists in 68 games. The Rockets have seven days to match Cleveland's offer, which a person familiar with the contract said is for three years. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the Rockets have not yet indicated if they will try to retain Lowry.

The Cavs sent out a release confirming their offer to Lowry on Wednesday.

James' decision last week not to re-sign with Cleveland put the Cavs in a bind. Because many of the top free agents were already off the board, they had to look at other ways of bolstering their roster.

The 6-foot Lowry, who was drafted by Memphis in 2006, is a proven defender. He could back up starter Mo Williams or perhaps move into the starting lineup in the future if the Cavs make another move this summer.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.

MySportsbook.com refunds all bets on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay from NFL week one.

(September 14) – Week one of NFL action saw three teams go scoreless for the first time since 1977.  Another four were unable to get a touchdown and almost half of the underdogs covered the spread. Those three teams saved bettors at MySportsbook.com from losing out completely, thanks to the company’s unique NFL Shutout Rule -- which ensures that if the team you backed goes scoreless, your wager is refunded.

Sportsbook refunded tens of thousands of dollars to customers who bet on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay, the three teams that stunk up the field so badly that their fans and backers never had a chance to get up from their couches and cheer.  In the spirit of the low scoring start to the season, odds makers at the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino have set odds on how many total shutouts there will be this season. 

MySportsbook.com has posted updated sports betting lines for week two of the season.  Ben Roethlisberger’s health status is still questionable, so Willie Parker will try to lead Pittsburgh again as they travel to Jacksonville as a one point favorite.  After beating up on his little brother last week, Peyton Manning will look to lead the Colts to victory against Houston. Indianapolis is a whopping 13.5 favorite in the match-up.

Seattle, last year’s highest scoring team, showed the power of their defense with their gritty 9-6 win in Motown over the ravenous Lions.  They take their act back home to the comforts of Qwest Field where they will face the resurgent Arizona Cardinals.  The Seahawks are favored by a touchdown.
