Banged-up Jazz play host to Bobcats
Basketball Betting Lines
02/24/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Utah Jazz hope to have All-Star guard Deron Williams and forward Andrei Kirilenko back in the lineup tonight as they welcome the reeling Charlotte Bobcats to Salt Lake City.
The Jazz, who are just one game behind Denver for second place in the Western Conference and the top spot in the Northwest Division, fell in their last outing against Atlanta on Monday without Williams (bruised right quad) and Kirilenko (back spasms).
Joe Johnson poured in 28 points, grabbed six rebounds, and dished out six assists in that one as the Hawks took a 105-100 decision over Utah to record their first victory in Salt Lake City in 17 years.
The Hawks snapped a 15-game skid in Utah, winning at the Jazz for the first time since February 13, 1993.
Paul Millsap finished with 14 points and nine boards off the bench for the Jazz, who were coming off a perfect four-game road trip. Kyle Korver and Ronnie Price each had 13 points. Carlos Boozer tallied 12 points, 10 boards, and eight assists, while C.J. Miles ended with 12 points and five rebounds in defeat.
"We made a couple mistakes trying to come down the stretch and turned the ball over a couple times and missed some free throws that could help keep you in there," Jazz head coach Jerry Sloan said. "But I thought our guys really played hard, being short-handed and that sort of thing; I thought everybody tried to step up and play hard."
Kirilenko is listed as questionable for tonight while Williams is probable.
The Bobcats, meanwhile, fell to 0-2 on a four-game road trip in Los Angles on Monday when Rasual Butler scored 20 points and the Clippers put together back- to-back wins for the first time in more than a month with a 98-94 triumph over Charlotte.
Stephen Jackson had his worst performance of the season for the Bobcats, going 1-of-16 from the field for seven points before fouling out with 2:08 remaining.
Gerald Wallace totaled 32 points and 12 rebounds for Charlotte, which lost their second in a row. Boris Diaw narrowly missed a triple-double with 20 points, nine boards and nine assists for the Bobcats, who wasted a six-point lead with 5 1/2 minutes left and fell into a tie with Milwaukee for the eighth and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.
"We got some bad breaks. It's tough in a close game," Bobcats coach Larry Brown said. "Jack was frustrated, and I don't blame him, but you can't let people frustrate you."

Chiefs' Treen Green out for Sunday's game
How long Trent Green will remain sidelined is unknown. Coach Herm Edwards said Monday he will miss a second straight start Sunday when the Chiefs host the San Francisco 49ers.
A two-time Pro Bowler, Green was going into a feet-first hook slide when he was knocked unconscious by a thunderous, head-snapping hit from Cincinnati's Robert Geathers.
Oddsmakers at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com currently have the Chiefs listed as 7-point favorites versus the 49ers.
The 49ers got beat by Philadelphia 38-24 as a 6.5-point underdog last week. The combined score went OVER the posted over/under total (42.5).
