02/02/2009 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Charlotte Bobcats conclude a five-game road trip in Salt Lake City Monday when they face the reeling Utah Jazz at EnergySolutions Arena.
The Bobcats fell to 1-3 on the trek Friday in Denver when Carmelo Anthony scored 19 points in his return to the lineup and the Nuggets earned a 110-99 win over Charlotte.
Anthony, who missed the previous 10 games after fracturing his right hand, went 5-of-12 from the field and missed just two of his 11 foul shots in nearly 30 minutes of action.
Raja Bell had 27 points for the Bobcats, who have lost two straight after winning six of eight and are now 6-15 as the visitor on the year. Boris Diaw had 16 points, but accounted for seven of his team's 18 turnovers.
The Jazz, meanwhile, lost for the fifth time in six games Saturday in Portland when Brandon Roy scored 30 points to lead the Trail Blazers in a 122-108 rout of Utah at the Rose Garden.
Deron Williams posted a game-high 35 points and five assists for the Jazz, who continue to play without star forwards Carlos Boozer and Andrei Kirilenko. Mehmet Okur tallied 18 points and Ronnie Brewer 17 in defeat.
Boozer continues to rehab a left knee injury, while Kirilenko could miss up to four weeks after undergoing surgery on his right last Friday.
Home cooking has meant a lot in this series recently with the host taking the last five encounters between the two teams.
The Bobcats upended Utah, 104-96, in Charlotte earlier this season but the Jazz are a markedly different team in Salt Lake City, compiling a 18-6 record at EnergySolutions Arena versus just 8-16 as a visitor.

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.
