Milan's Ambrosini, Emerson, Pirlo resume training

Soccer Betting Lines

12/11/2008 - Milan, Italy (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - AC Milan has been boosted by the return to training of midfield trio Andrea Pirlo, Massimo Ambrosini and Emerson.

The Rossoneri have already lost Gennaro Gattuso to a serious knee injury which could keep him sidelined for the rest of the season.

But ahead of Saturday's high-profile Serie A meeting with Juventus, Pirlo, Ambrosini and Emerson all took part in training on Wednesday without problem.

Emerson and Ambrosini have been sidelined in recent weeks, while Italy international Pirlo has made just four appearances this season due to a succession of injury problems.

Meanwhile, Milan have been linked with a January move for Lyon midfielder Jean Makoun in an attempt to fill the void created by Gattuso's absence.

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.
