    Anyone Else Like The Lakers Tomorrow......

    I know the line isn't out because we don't know Pau or Dwight's status, but I feel like we take LA no matter what tomorrow.

    Primetime game on ESPN, Lakers hungry need a win with a ton of pressure on them. Not sure if they can win, but I don't see why this doesn't come down to the wire.

    Thoughts.

    What's the line? I saw Lakers+4.5 on a square book I sometimes use, but their lines can be off by as much as 3 or 4 points as far as Pinny's opener.

    I did expect something in that region though. Seems solid enough.

    No clue....All depends on Pau and Dwight. Those two combined are worth around 3 points.

    Just checked - they have +6 now. Then again they have terrible lines at times.

    I'm curious to see who the public will side with in this one - the Lakers as 6 point home dogs, if that's what it is (would indicate both are out imo), is new territory in the past few years.

    +6 sounds about right assuming Dwight is out. Just read on twitter (not sure how credible the person is) that Pau is iffy for tomorrow, and Howard and Hill are most likely out for tomorrow. Kobe and Nash are both veterans, they know how important this game is, especially with it being nationally televised.

    According to cbssports (i wouldn't swear by them, not even close), Howard and Hill are out and Gasol questionable. I think I'll take the Lakers here, just wondering if I go spread, ml or both.

    Yep that's what I read. Honestly, D'Antoni's system runs better with just Gasol or just Howard. I think the ML has a decent shot, but I'll probably just play the spread.

    if you are a Laker fan... stay away from this game..."Desire" plays deep, and many tricks on judgementreally best to cap games where you only care about the money.far more clarity/vision.

    SBROdds has LAL +7 -- is that right?

    Sadly, I'll probably be a sucker and back the Lake Show here.

    i'll be at the game. I have no doubt that the lakers will go down by at least 8 at some point in the game and that is when I will take them live.

    Friday night in LA. And I agree with what Magic had to say on twitter after the Spurs loss.. I think this game comes down to the final minutes.

    Earvin Magic Johnson ‏<s>@</s>MagicJohnson I feel like the <s>@</s>Lakers found their passion and love for the game last night in the loss to the Spurs...

    Just seems like the game where the Lakers will cover and possibly win. Lakers don't need that bum Howard right now. Kobe and Nash are both veterans, they'll keep this close.

    Thanks. Already took it, my book had it at +6.5, couldn't pass it up. Kobe might put up 40 tonight.

    Nash being a veteran doesn't help the fact Westbrook will run circles around him. Westbrook has torched the Lakers so many times, I swear he has another gear whenever he plays them and LA is his home so I expect them to come out swinging. LA fans are so quiet it's not even gonna feel like an away game for OKC
