Really wanted to take the Lakers here, but the line is about 1 point higher than I hoped...

Denver will probably be a play.
 
I have Bos circled. Power numbers say -4.5. Haven't factored in travel from Europe for Det. Det, IMO has lost the mojo they had earlier in the month. Rotations have gotten fucked up, and something is off. Have to check Bos to make sure I ain't missing something.
 
Toronto first half. In all 6 Toronto Sunday home games they have won the first half ATS. However in 3 of the last 4 they have then lost the game and they have failed to cover the last 2. here we have Steve Nash playing in Toronto so would expect a Laker win.
 
Orlando at home on Sunday. See a faitly good total direction here

Not really sure either team is happy about their last game.
maybe a lean to Dallas as the road team has won the last 8 games.
 
Starting to wonder about that first half. Probably play it but Lakers awfully hungry right now.
 
Toronto first half. In all 6 Toronto Sunday home games they have won the first half ATS. However in 3 of the last 4 they have then lost the game and they have failed to cover the last 2. here we have Steve Nash playing in Toronto so would expect a Laker win.

Toronto one of the best teams in the league in first half at home. Lakers one of the worst first half teams playing on the road.
 
always tough going against the Thunder but I think the Nuggets set up nicely as a play here. Nuggets off a home loss Karl saying they didn't play with enough effort and seriousness, Thunder off ot win....think the total is too high but not sure I can play it. Just feel it could be a defensive showing for the Nuggets, not sure they want to push vs the Thunder
 
Agree on the nuggets but i don't think I'll play it.


Took the lakes/49ers ML parlay +125. I'll be okay with it if it loses.
 
Lakers and Over TT on them are my plays for the early game - good value in my eyes.
Toronto been showing absolutely awful defense in losses and have huge match up problem on defense for them and Lakers in a must win game for the playoffs. Bulls, Memphis and Thunder on deck...

Will be on Denver and Boston probably as well. Both teams off losses and with revenge on their mind.
 
agree with lakers & Denver, don't like the Cs though. No play for me there most likely so hope you cash :shake:
 
As I said, Toronto start really well at home - second best in the league I think. Lakers really poor on the road to start the games...
 
And I just love Artest. Rescued one ball, stole another. This is the exact kind of player Lakers need!
 
It's 10 am for the lakers. That's what's wrong. I totally overlooked that. Lakers should still win.
 
Took Lakers ML for 3 max units for 2.6 odds in Betfair - looks like a perfect game to make some trades in game.
Toronto just so crazy unbalanced team. Lost two of the last three games leading by 19+ points...
 
Clark and Artest the best players with the Lakers today so far.
Dwight btw plays really amazing basketball since his return from the injury.

If Nash and Kobe will find their shots...

Refs really allow Lakers to play hard with Toronto. I think that at least 5 - 7 small fouls on Lakers weren't called...
 
Why Dwight got a technical?!
This is a reason to eject a player on double T???

Refs owe Lakers about 15 calls for that bs...

Ok so today the refs are FOR the lakers...interestinginteresting
 
Hedged out of the Lakers bet with nice green on both sides. Now if Lakers cover the line as well, will have biggest profit of the season, if they won't just small profit...

Ret, I call it, like I see it. If you disagree, you have the right of course...
 
nbafan: i see it the same way...think the howard ejection woke up the lakers and they started playing with more intensity. anxious to see how gasol plays inside. gl with ur play
 
I waited half oif the season to see Nash and Gasol playing P&R as PG and Center. Hoping to finally have a chance for that.
 
Lakers play amazing basketball. The entire team, but.. Nash and Kobe. Nash and Kobe just can't find their rhythm so far. Hope it will change in the second half.
But Lakers will win this one.
