I put $300 on the Lakers in game 3 ML and $150 on the spread and lost both. I'm doubling that bet today but putting it on the ML. I'm risking $900 at +105. That's not a good price but I don't need the couple measly points. If Phil Jackson isn't stupid he will make an adjustment and let Bryant guard Terry and Kidd. I thought he would have done this in the last game but Bryant was used as a roaming defender primarily
The reason why this bet is big is because I've only been betting a game per week pretty much in the playoffs so while I've lost 4-5 bets I haven't been betting on really any games.
Gasol should be a force today for a change and the Lakers just need to elimnate the mental mistakes. They had game 3 in the bag and started feeding the ball to Odom in the last 3 minutes. The ball only went to Bryant once in the last three minutes, which anytime this happens, the Lakers will never win any games. Expect Bryant to close this one out before the Mavs even have a chance to get back into it.
