Panthers' Delhomme questionable
Football Betting Lines
12/27/2006 - Charlotte, NC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Carolina Panthers quarterback Jake Delhomme is listed as questionable on Wednesday's injury report due to the same sprained right thumb that has forced him to miss the past three games.
Delhomme, wearing a new glove on his right hand, practiced on Wednesday for the first time in more than three weeks but it is still unknown if he will play in the Panthers' regular-season finale against New Orleans on Sunday.
Panthers head coach John Fox would only say that Delhomme looked good during practice and that the signal-caller can grip the football. Fox said he is holding out hope that Delhomme can play at the Superdome.
The game is a must-win for Carolina, which is still in the NFL playoff hunt despite a 7-8 record. Even if the Panthers beat the Saints, they still need losses by the New York Giants (against Washington on December 30) and Green Bay (against Chicago on Sunday night) to claim the final playoff spot in the NFC.
Delhomme hurt his thumb after his hand hit a helmet on a first-quarter touchdown pass to wide receiver Steve Smith in Carolina's 27-24 loss against the Philadelphia Eagles on December 4. He stayed in the game and went 22- of-37 for 269 yards with three touchdowns and a pair of fourth-quarter interceptions.
He has completed 240-of-404 passes for 2,598 yards in 12 games overall this season, with 15 touchdowns and 11 interceptions.
Chris Weinke has struggled while filling in for Delhomme, completing just 56- of-96 passes for 625 yards in three games, throwing two touchdowns and four interceptions. He has a 67.4 passer rating.

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.
