07/17/2010 - Houston, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Houston Rockets have agreed to a three- year deal with veteran center Brad Miller.
Miller's agent, Mark Bartelstein, confirmed the pact to the Houston Chronicle and indicated it to be worth just shy of $15 million.
The 34-year-old Miller was a two-time All-Star under current Rockets coach Rick Adelman while in Sacramento. He played five-plus seasons for the Kings before being dealt to the Bulls late in the 2008-09 campaign in a six-player swap.
Miller averaged 8.8 points, 4.9 rebounds and 1.9 assists while shooting 43 percent from the field over a full 82-game schedule last season in Chicago. He started 37 of those contests.
The Purdue product originally signed with the Charlotte Hornets as a free agent in 1998-99 and over 12 NBA seasons holds down career averages of 11.7 points, 7.5 rebounds and 2.9 assists while connecting on 48.2 percent of his shots. He's started 592 of his 793 games played and also logged a brief stint with Indiana.

The AFC South and the NFC East are the favorite divisions to have the next Super Bowl champ among them in the NFL betting odds. But more down to the point, these football odds are in favor of the Indianapolis Colts, by far the strongest team in the AFC South, and the Dallas Cowboys of the NFC East.
Most sports fans would agree that these two teams top the list to win it all before the season even begins. In the BetUS Sportsbook football futures, the Colts are +800 in the odds to win the Super Bowl, while the Cowboys are sitting at +1000 and the Super Bowl XLIV champions New Orleans Saints at +900. In the AFC South, the Colts won the division for five straight years after the 2002 realignment, before the Tennessee Titans won it in 2008. But the Colts came back strong in 2009 to win the division again en route to the Super Bowl. The Cowboys are the favorite to win the NFC East, as well as to advance far into the post season. The Cowboys won the division last season before their horrendous loss in the NFC Divisional playoff to Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings. But the ‘Boys will take that loss humbly and be ready for the playoffs this time around.
The NFC South is also very strong, at +600 in the NFL futures, considering that it is home to the defending Super Bowl champions. However, some predictions have the Atlanta Falcons with possibilities of claiming the divisional title this season in place of the Saints, as no team has won back-to-back division championships since the division realignment took place. Let’s not overlook the AFC North at +500. As TO goes to Cincinnati to join Chad OchoCinco and Adam “Pac-Man” Jones, this team looks to claim the division title again. And it is likely they will do so. The Bengals lost in the AFC Wild Card spot in a hard-fought battle against the New York Jets last season. Lest not forget the Pittsburgh Steelers, the XLII Super Bowl Champions… All these teams present interesting odds and matchups for the upcoming season, but the safest and surest bet seems to be with the Colts in the AFC South and the Cowboys in the NFC East.
