It has been officially reported by the Golden State Warriors that their star player, Steph Curry, will be out for at least two weeks due to a MCL sprain.

The Cleveland Cavaliers (yay!) and the San Antonio Spurs (boo!) have made it to the second round of the NBA playoffs in the Eastern and Western Conferences, respectively. Barring any unforeseen event, the Spurs are just waiting for the Oklahoma Thunder to dispose of the Dallas Mavericks, which could happen this Monday. The Thunder are sports betting favorites (-1800) against the Mavs (+1150) and lead the series 3-1. Only 9 teams have come back from a 1-3 disadvantage and won a playoff series, but Dallas should be more concerned about winning quarters – especially the first.

As he nears the last innings of his impressive career and the cricket betting odds get exciting, Dale Steyn is adamant about not giving up white-ball cricket in order to improve his Test longevity. “When you start to come to the back end (of your career), people start to say 'maybe you should give up one (format) or give up the other."
Real Madrid’s soccer betting odds of making it through the UEFA Champions League semi-finals and winning their 11th Cup are better than ever since the other Madrilenian team did Real’s dirty work and eliminated their archrivals Barcelona. Now that the threat of Messi has been vanquished, nothing keeps the Blancos from asserting their dominance – except themselves. And Manchester City too, of course, and whoever wins the other semi-final (coughBayern Munichcough). But City is an English team, and Real Madrid is undefeated in eight games against English opposition in the Champions League, so you do the math – really, you do it, because I’m not very good at it.
