    Hit the lakers hard in the second half?

    I already have in the game for -5.5, thinking about betting on the second half as well if they are not leading. what do you think guys?

    Correct, the second half line is -6. and they were down 6, if lost by 12 it'd be a push.

    You are the one clearly confused.
    You have been here since 2010 and don't know how a second half bet works.

    If you bet lakers -7 at the half, they need to outscore Denver by more than 7 in the second half.
    Lakers need to win the game for you to cash your second half bet.

    my bet was -6 they need to outscore the lakers by 7 to win tht bet but seeing as how the lakers were down 6 in first half. the lakers absolutly do not have to win the game for my 2H wager to be a winner. get my point?????

    I'm still not sure if you're getting it or not.

    The Lakers were down by 6 at halftime.

    They were -6 for the second half. Which means they have to outscore them by six, in the second half. Essentially making it a PK for the game.

    Got it?

    Good luck.
