    Why are lakers just -1.5 today????

    Even without howard, they should be atleast -4 or -5 here. The wolves team is depleted with many injuries. WTF am I missing here?

    They've gotten Pekovic and Shved back. I believe the only guys missing from Minnesota are Roy, Love and Budinger.

    And you know why the line is low

    I think it's reflecting a little of the phoenix loss, combined with howard being out and players returning for Minnesota.

    Line just went to 2, though.

    Minnesota has everyone back aside from roy and budinger (out for the season) and of course the Love injury, which is a long term one.

    But the shorter injuries, guys are back from.

    Because it was when they started their 3 game win streak. The larger point is that if Kobe goes Kobe, they are not as good.

    Number looks right. Clippers were -4.5 without Paul.

    How many road games in a row have these bums lost? 6, 7, 8??

    Why even bet this game? Lakers can win by 20 or lose by 10 and no one will be surprised either way.
