IGotDi$ · 05-10-09, 03:50 PM

yeah i hear you Mac i dont why i went big with LA. this will hurt a lot.

Mac4Lyfe · 05-10-09, 03:57 PM

I faded LA 2nd half at one book. Was about to fade them at BetJam but they closed the line way early. Either way I'm going to lose a little going with LA

DeeWizzle · 05-10-09, 04:03 PM

You are gonna question Kobe's greatness based on one game? How about go back to last year when Lebron had 2 points and like 8 turnovers in one of their playoff games and get back to me.

I don't think Lebron ever had a 2 point game. I'd take Lebron over Kobe in a heartbeat. Lebron teams never look uninspired. Lebron's teams lack talent but not heart. Kobe's teams lack heart not athleticism.

Good god I ****ing love this.

NardVa · 05-10-09, 04:19 PM

Rockets have a 29pt lead going into the fourth.

Mac4Lyfe · 05-10-09, 04:21 PM

That play right there epitomizes the Laker's lack of effort. Brooks at 6 feet goes back door as Artest flings a 70 foot alley oop with 0.7 left on the clock. Unreal...

GatorFan · 05-10-09, 04:22 PM

Welcome to NBA playoff....anything could be happening. Congratulation to the Rockets backers.

alamo · 05-10-09, 04:22 PM

Fakers need a big 4th qtr to try cover -8. Going to need a 37-0 qtr. DEFENSE ...DEFENSE...DEFENSE

If the Laker's cover -8 I will walk to the Toyota Center (bout 24 miles from me) and personally smack Adelman in the head and spend the night in jail.

alamo · 05-10-09, 04:26 PM

Fakers go 7-0 run...ITs ON!

NardVa · 05-10-09, 04:26 PM

Wonder if the Rockets can push the lead to 30 pts again.

alamo · 05-10-09, 04:30 PM

Fakers reeling them in...Can we call security in Toyata Centre and warn them that there's a possible attack planned for Adelman. Also call the county jail and tell em to prepare a cell.

NardVa · 05-10-09, 04:33 PM

Kobe taking the 4th off.

DeeWizzle · 05-10-09, 04:44 PM

This game was sad enough to turn a Faker's fan into a Clipper's Fan!

I've got my sneakers on...

DeeWizzle · 05-10-09, 04:48 PM

All they need is one of those old school Rock n Jock 20 pointers and they're back in business!

Mac4Lyfe · 05-10-09, 04:54 PM

Well there goes my Houston under 94... Hey Lakers, kiss my

andrewevans512 · 05-10-09, 05:34 PM

so how much did everyone lose im down a grand on this game

BCaldwell32 · 05-10-09, 05:34 PM

you are clueless if you would take Lebron over Kobe, give me Kobe in the 4th quarter right now over anyone else on the planet!! That was passed down from the greatest player of all time Michael Jordan who was the most clutch player and best player to ever walk Earth. Also, Lebron did have a 2 point game last year in playoffs, look it up.

RoagBettor · 05-10-09, 05:36 PM

Mac, what part of town are you in? I'm in Copperfield.

k22t · 05-10-09, 06:24 PM

wow what a pathetic effort by the lakers...lost a ton of money on these clowns

Yep, I've been rinsing out vomit from my mouth all afternoon from watching that tragedy.

sweetjones55 · 05-11-09, 12:18 AM

Double Down on Lakers 1st quarter, 1st half, 3rd quarter, and game in the next game. Get all your money back plus more.

andywend · 05-11-09, 12:38 AM

When 95% of the posters all like one side in any sporting event, the other side is the automatic play.

The same thing happened in game 6 of the 76er's/Orlando series as everyone loved Philly with Dwight Howard being suspended for the game.

Of course, Orlando blew them out by 30 as a 5 point dog.

Sweetjones, your recommendation of doubling down on the Lakers -12 in game 5 after their performance today is baffling. Bettors like you keep the books in business.

Check out the clutch stats from this year. Lebron and Kobe basically average the same amount of points but check out the difference in fg%, rebounds and assits. Lebron smokes him.

First of all, I said to double down on the 1st quarter, 1st half, 3rd quarter, and game not just all in @ -12. Second thing, the Lakers are a team that need a wake up call every now and then. They received it and Kobe Bryant rarely has two bad games in a row especially if the second game is @ home. Lastly, I am 6-3 posting picks on this website for the playoffs. Check King_Bookie Challenge thread. 66.6% doesn't keep the books in business last I checked.

Play the Rockets 1st quarter, half and game. Lets see who keeps the books in business.
