Lakers vs. Suns 2nd half.

[icsky3]

whew was close there covered in first half tho. any1 else like the over here? or lakers..

[bigboydan]

I like the Lakers ML +125 in the 2nd half.

[icsky3]

man. tough one -2 on the suns is tempting as well now that i think about it. nash isnt going to take that horrible 2nd quarter good. plus, lakers could lose some steam.

[EaglesPhan36]

Not sure on this one. If the Suns keep the Lakers off the glass, PHX pulls away. If LA continues to pound the glass, the game should be close.

Lakers could lose steam if they where on the road being at home it is going to be EXTREMELY HARD to lose steam. The MVP chants for Kobe roaring expect high scoring by the Lakers and probably for Phoenix it will come down to the Lakers having to play the Defense they played in the second half which was the best Lakers defense I have seen all year that might be the best quarter by the Lakers all year. I would avoid second half just because you don't know what Lakers team will come out, but you can be sure they are going to have tons of energy and Phoenix will come out a little flat after blowing that huge lead as a player those are not good factors when playing on the road and it is hard to recover after blowing a lead.

[icsky3]

yeah but this is the suns. heh. and i figure thats the only adjustment that they could make. gotta figure the suns have something to counter it in the 2nd half, then what are the lakers going to do? not to mention if they keep the lakers to less off. boards this game wouldnt be close as of right now. i would have to look at this as a coaching battle in the 2nd half more than anything else.

[EaglesPhan36]

F It. I went with LA +1.5 (-102) for the 2nd half. That might guarantee a Suns win!

[icsky3]

lol i ended up taking suns -2 in the 2nd half GL to ya.

[TheProphet]

if you said it is going to come down to a coaches battle icksy3 I am kind of wondering why you would of taken the Suns are you saying that you think D'Antoni however its spelled can match up better against Phil as a coach. That is a pretty bold statement either way good luck with this game I really am looking forward to a GREAT 2nd half

[icsky3]

i suppose i should have added coach/talent. and yes it is already a great 2nd half and should be till the end.

[Razz]

On the Lakers for the game. They are really playing well. Even if I lose, I feel glad that my team is giving all they have. That trapping defense is really a good addition, and could be the key to somebody knocking Phoenix out of the playoffs.

[bigboydan]

From the looks of it right now,we might see OT in this one

If the lakers knock out phoenix i will never watch another basketball game in my life.

I don't think he ment the Lakers knocking them off I believe he ment something another team could use in the next couple of rounds. I think it would be pretty sweet to see a number 7 seed make a comeback from 0-2 and win the series why would that make you not want to watch basketball again. It is no different than hoping cinderella teams win in the NCAA Tournament.

ya i know... i would just be disgusted, it would by far be the worst upset in the playoffs. Other then orlando upsetting detroit, which i think is definately going to be a sweep.

[chigoldcoast27]

and if GS ruined dallas' amazing season, that would be a great upset. One i hope happens.
