Hornets' Gordon to have surgery, out another six weeks

Basketball Betting Lines

02/14/2012 - New Orleans, LA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Hornets shooting guard Eric Gordon will miss another six weeks after he undergoes arthroscopic surgery on his right knee Tuesday.

Gordon first suffered the injury in the season opener against Phoenix and experienced swelling in the knee upon his return against Philadelphia on January 4. Doctors recommended treatment and rest, but have now decided surgery is the best option.

"After consulting with our medical staff, we concluded that surgery was the best route and in the best interest of Eric for the long term. We had hoped with rest and rehab, Eric's knee would have healed," Hornets general manager Dell Demps said. "Eric is eager to return to the court and we are confident Hornet fans will get to see him soon."

Gordon, acquired in mid-December by the Hornets as part of the Chris Paul trade, averaged 22.3 points for the Clippers in 2010-11. He put up 20 and 22 points in his only two games this season.

New Orleans defeated the Jazz on Monday but still sits in the basement of the Southwest Division standings with a 5-23 record.

Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl Odds

Will he or won't he?  Now that the Dallas Cowboys have a new head coach in Wade Phillips, the big question will be: Does Terrell Owens stay with the team.

Jerry Jones continues to suggest that Terrell Owens will remain with the team.

"I've said that he's back, he's here, he's under contract," Jones said. "In the interviews I've just been through (to hire a new coach), it was very clear to me how highly he's thought of and how much of an impact he had on our offensive success."

Just to be sure though, Terrell Owens cleared out his locker and removed his name plate.

Terrell Owens was among the Cowboys most productive players this past season, catching 85 passes for 1,180 yards and a league-best 13 touchdowns.

But T.O. is due a $3 million roster bonus in June, then a $5 million salary this season. Cutting him before then would save a lot of money and headaches.

Aside from the questions surrounding Terrell Owens, the oddsmakers at MySportsbook.com have concerns over starting quarterback Tony Romo's state of mind and whether he will remain a starting quarterback.  It is also not known how players will adjust to new head coach, Wade Phillips.
