Adonal Foyle calls it quits
Basketball Betting Lines
08/17/2010 -
Orlando, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Veteran center Adonal Foyle has announced his
retirement.
Foyle did not play last season for Orlando after undergoing knee surgery in
October. He appeared in only 10 games during the 2008-09 season with the Magic
and Memphis.
The Colgate product spent his first 10 seasons with Golden State and is the
Warriors' all-time leader in blocked shots with 1,140. He is also fifth on
their all-time list for offensive rebounds and sixth for defensive rebounds.
"I have loved every minute of the game," said Foyle in a statement released by
the Magic. "Retiring is bittersweet as my happiest memories are with the game.
I'm looking forward to spending more time on humanitarian issues and mentoring
the young basketball players who may need a voice of experience as they embark
on their NBA careers."
In 733 career NBA games, including 269 starts, Foyle had career averages of
4.1 points and 4.7 rebounds. He was selected by the Warriors with the eighth
overall pick of the 1997 NBA Draft.
Foyle, a native of St. Vincent and the Grenadines, has built or refurbished
basketball courts in urban areas to provide safe places to play for more than
3,000 youth.

MySportsbook.com: NBA Championship Odds
With the playoffs about two months away, the top two teams in the Western Conference are the clear cut leaders to win the NBA Championship. The Dallas Mavericks have the best record in the NBA (44-9) and have been absolutely scorching since the second week of the season. What makes the Mavs’ record more impressive is the fact that they dropped their first four games of the season. Currently they have won 17 out of their last 18 and are MySportsbook.com’s favorite (2-1) to win it all. Right behind the Mavs are the Pacific leading Phoenix Suns (39-13). Last season, the Suns lost in the Conference Finals to non-other then the Mavericks four games to two. Of course the Suns were without center Amare Stoudemire who has is averaging 19.9 PPG and 9.5 RPG since coming back from his knee injury. Unlike the Mavs, the Suns have struggled a bit lately having lost their last three and four out of their last seven. Of course the main reason for their three straight loses is due to the absence of two time MVP Steve Nash, who is out with a shoulder injury. Heads-up, the Mavs have beaten the Suns in both of their meetings this season.
In the Eastern Conference, the Pistons (32-19) are the favorites to win it all at 6-1. The addition of Chris Webber seems to have been a good move for the Pistons. Since coming over from the 76ers, Webber has averaged 13.1 PPG and 7.3 RPG and the Pistons are 11-4. Even though the defending champion Heat are currently on the playoff making cusp, they are the Eastern Conference team that is getting the most action to win it all (9-1). The fact that Shaquille O’Neal is back in the starting lineup after missing 39 games probably has something to do with this. No doubt, Shaq makes a difference when in the lineup as their winning six out of their last seven would indicate.
