09/02/2008 - Miami, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Miami Heat signed free agent center Jamaal Magloire on Tuesday. Per team policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed.
"We are very fortunate to be able to come to terms with Jamaal Magloire," said Heat president Pat Riley. "We feel that he will dramatically support our post position. He is an excellent rebounder with a big body. On the defensive end he will plug up the paint and on the offensive end he can score. We feel that this is definitely the right place for him to re-energize his career."
Magloire, 30, split the 2007-08 season between the New Jersey Nets and the Dallas Mavericks. He averaged 1.8 points and 2.9 rebounds in 9.2 minutes per game, playing just 31 games.
An All-Star in 2004, Magloire has averaged 8.6 points, 7.2 rebounds, 1.03 blocks and 24.2 minutes per game during an eight-year NBA career which has included stints with the Hornets, Milwaukee Bucks, Portland Trail Blazers, Nets and Mavericks.

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP
With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at MySportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.
This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.
There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.
