Laker bench use to be awesome till Sasha got cocky along with Jordan. Need to understand what their role is on this team and freakin do it.

Sasha pisses me off too. He pretends to play tough defense and he's either on or off.

benches never play as well on the road
never

jjgold · 03-12-09, 08:07 PM

Congrats Lakers backers

Odom is better than Bynum, unreal.

whatisit · 03-12-09, 08:08 PM

Once Bynum gets back, LO can go back to lead the bench unit...they need 1 unselfish player on that unit..jordan and sasha are two of the biggest hogs ive ever seen.

ryanXL977 · 03-12-09, 08:09 PM

comparing odom to bynum is like comparing johan santana to albert pujols
its ludicrous

Ryan, I got them at +140 suckaaa. j/k.

Who is taking the Spurs -5 for the 2H? Parker and Duncan have yet to get it going. Like ryan said, I doubt Lakers win by double digits on the road too.

Seems pretty solid, but I wouldn't be surprised if Duncan and Parker never get going this game.

They(lakers) will

happy i took lakers ml tonight.

don't screw this up in the second half please.

ryanXL977 · 03-12-09, 08:38 PM

i dont htink lakers win this by dd on the road
but theyll win

Dark Horse · 03-12-09, 08:41 PM

If the Spurs hit their stupid FT's it's a 6 pt game.

The_Kid · 03-12-09, 08:43 PM

Well, I took the Spurs for the 2H. If someone other than Finley can actually score, they'll be fine.

Dark Horse · 03-12-09, 08:44 PM

These zebras for spreads <5 are 9-17 ATS home/away.

Wow, I just noticed that Parker is 1-4 from the charity stripe. I expect Duncan to miss a few though...

ryanXL977 · 03-12-09, 08:48 PM

who is better? lakers or spurs?

rowdy08 · 03-12-09, 08:50 PM

When the Spurs are at full force it's hard to say.

its on the road, lal aint gonna win by 10 on the road at sas, nobody does

prescient?

Dark Horse · 03-12-09, 08:53 PM

Spurs don't have the same motivation as the Lakers. Lakers are going for home court throughout playoffs. Spurs have home court in 1st round and probably in 2nd; this game is not such a big deal to them.

SportsTerminator · 03-12-09, 09:00 PM

EVERY game is important Dark Horse. The Spurs can slip to 8th place if their not careful.

ryanXL977 · 03-12-09, 09:01 PM

these guys are pro athletes, they dont want to lose a single game. i dont think theyd be where they are without motivation. i generally try not to facor that stuff in when betting. but maybe you are right.

W0lfy · 03-12-09, 09:07 PM

What a bullsht way to end the 3rd. Could of been a potential 13 point game but its an 8 game instead.

ryanXL977 · 03-12-09, 09:07 PM

the calls the spurs get at home are almost as bad as the calls the lakers get at home

the nba refs are such an unreal joke

Rofl...motivation was the reason why SA was -3 here.
Did you take a look at the teams behind SA?

If you believe that you miss a major key to the NBA.

If this game was truly important to the Spurs they would definitely not lose the 1Q by 18 pts.

ryanXL977 · 03-12-09, 09:11 PM

this game is way more important to the spurs than the lakers my friend. way more.

W0lfy · 03-12-09, 09:11 PM

I don't think every game is important in the NBA, but to say the Spurs don't have the motivation is just plain dumb.

SportsTerminator · 03-12-09, 09:12 PM

It happens Dark Horse, the Lakers won 50 GAMES. And they have a player who scored 81! It happens.

ryanXL977 · 03-12-09, 09:13 PM

the fact people counted san antonio out after 1 bad quarter blows my mind

these are the spurs
the best coached, most sound team in the sport

rowdy08 · 03-12-09, 09:15 PM

This is the NBA where most games are decided by the 4q

SportsTerminator · 03-12-09, 09:16 PM

There's going to be some serious cuts and trades if the Lakers' bench don't get it together.
