    Why are Lakers -4?

    This should be a huge red flag. Lakers are looking terrible, and dropped 2 preseason and 1 regular season game to the Clips. There is no reason why they should be -4 favorites here. Clips looks easy. That's why I like Lakers.

    i don't know.. they've both had 2 days off, are playing @ home, and mo williams( chris paul replacement) has scored over 25 pts the last three games and is shooting 90% from the line... thinking clippers but not by much. stay away. should be a great game though

    This line seems a bit odd. Almost pleads for ppl to take CLips +4. If CP3 plays I'd have to lean towards the Clipps, but something in the back of my head is telling me the Lakers cover.

    This outcome of this game is totally dependent on what happens in the paint. The Clippers Billups/Paul/Mo combo outclasses the Lakers on the perimeter, so the Lakers need to win the second chance points battle with strong rebounding.

    I'm not eager to lay -4 when the game could be very close wire to wire. I would think the Under 187 could have some value.

    The Lakers will feed the bigmen tonight. they will outscore the Clipps's frontline, so they will balance possible perimeter disavantage. They should cove. I say Lakers by 8 or more

    Paul will play he is ready, he will make difference in over the car ally oop passes. In regards to winning this game I doubt it. Good luck!

    Are you insane? A Clipper Crowd? I live 2 blocks from Staples Center and am a season ticket holder to both Clippers and Lakers. Even Clippers home games are full of slews of Laker fans. All the transplants that moved here from other places have jumped on the clipper bandwagon but this is still and always will be a LAKER town.

    Most of the money is on the Lakers as always. They seem to have a built in fan base of bettors who bet them regardless of who they play or how bad they've been.

    The money is pretty split but Lakers money is moving the line.

    Lakers -4; it's the old you can't keep beating your rival when you're pretty evenly matched.
