Bulls send Sefolosha to Thunder for draft pick

Basketball Betting Lines

02/19/2009 - Chicago, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Chicago Bulls sent guard Thabo Sefolosha to the Oklahoma City Thunder for a 2009 first-round draft pick prior to the trade deadline on Thursday.

Sefolosha's days in a Chicago uniform appeared to be numbered after the Bulls acquired guard John Salmons from Sacramento in a six-player trade on Wednesday.

In that deal, Chicago also acquired center Brad Miller in exchange for forwards Andres Nocioni, Cedric Simmons and Michael Ruffin, and center Drew Gooden. Ruffin was then shipped off to Portland for Ike Diogu.

In his third season with Chicago, Sefolosha has played in 43 games and averaged 4.5 points, 2.9 rebounds and 1.5 assists.

He was originally selected by Philadelphia with the 13th overall selection in the 2006 draft, but was sent to Chicago for the rights to Rodney Carney, who was the 16th overall pick, and cash considerations.

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.
