02/21/2007 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Minnesota Timberwolves hope home is where the heart is when the struggling club opens up a five-game homestand this evening against the Charlotte Bobcats at the Target Center.
The Timberwolves have lost six of their last nine contests and hold just a one-half game lead over three teams -- the Clippers, Warriors and Hornets -- for the eighth and final playoff spot in the West.
Minnesota's most recent loss came on Tuesday against Washington, which never trailed en route to a 112-100 home win over the Timberwolves.
Kevin Garnett had 26 points and 13 rebounds for Minnesota, which fell to a dismal 9-19 on the road this season. However, the club is a healthy 16-9 as the host. Ricky Davis ended with 24 points and Mike James scored 20 for the Timberwolves.
It promises to be no easy homestand for Minnesota, which has won three in a row at home, as Phoenix, Washington, Dallas and Utah will all come to town over the next week and a half.
More good news for the Timberwolves is the fact that they have won three of their last four over the young Charlotte Bobcats. The two teams will meet for the second and final time this season with Charlotte aiming for its first-ever victory in Minnesota. The Bobcats are winless in two attempts so far in franchise history.
Charlotte comes in on a winning note after Raymond Felton scored 21 points and doled out 11 assists, and the Bobcats topped the New Orleans/Oklahoma City Hornets, 104-100, on Tuesday.
Gerald Wallace also tallied 21 points, and grabbed seven rebounds for the Bobcats, who won their second in a row. Emeka Okafor was a force, finishing with 16 points, 15 rebounds, and five blocked shots.
Adam Morrison added 18 points off the bench, and Derek Anderson scored 12, including two clutch free throws with 6.4 seconds left to ice the game.
Brevin Knight was a late scratch for the Bobcats with a sore right groin and, along with guard Jeff McInnis (sprained right ankle) and forward Sean May (sore right knee), is questionable for tonight's game.
Charlotte is 8-18 on the road so far this year and will next return home for a pair of games beginning with a tilt against Philadelphia on Friday.

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.
