T-wolves+16

[2daBank]

grabbing this 1 now as if line moves i would think it moves down. lake show loves to let bad teams hang around or let off the gas once they get a lead. rambus 1st time back and he a laker guy dont think lake show willl be out for blood. throw in they have a big gm on the road at utah if there up late phil will have the bench playing it out. lake show win but dont cover

[Brakon00]

nah ...nah...fool .... u trippin cuz.....this is going to be another 25 point blowout like the last game vs. utah....in fact im willing to risk 100 bucks that the lakers win by 35 or more in this one....they dont go over 80 in this game...lakers will crush and get to almost 120 in this...not a sweat!

glad you got it all figured out. honestly im happy you will be on the other side as ive seen plenty of your "winners" lately

[2daBank]

why da hell would lake show concern themselves with blowing this team out with a trip to utah looming? as i said even if they do run out on them there shit bench be playing out the 4th

I'll take that bet...want me to set up an x-bet on matchbook?

[HoulihansTX]

Backdoor cover is always an issue with the Lakers, since the bench plays so many minutes in the 4th.

Solid Pick. I am leaning this way for all the same reasons... If I may let me offer some solid advice that has been working for me. If your book offers quarter lines take Minnesota for the 4th quarter prior to the game. It is even more effective if you wait for the halftime line when you see that the Lakers are blowing them out. This strategey has been serving me well for quite some time with the Lakers. I make this play whenever the Lakers are at home as double digit favorites playing a vastly inferior opponent such a Minnestota tonite. Trust me... You will be scared to take it because the 4th quarter will be a lower + pts than any other quarter for obvious reasons. With the line being around +15 1/2 right now I am sure my book will probably offer + 2 1/2 or +3 for the 4th quarter. Usually, I don't need the point ever because the other team usually wins the 4th quarter or plays even. Don't trust me... Do your research. Look at all Lakers home games this year playing and inferior opponent that they were crushing and then look at the box score for the 4th quarter. As always GL!

[TJHotpicks]

I think Lakers 1st half would be the strongest bet in this one. Lakerw sill pull their starters late in the 3rd and coast the rest of the way.

[chadodaddio]

Agreed take 1st half lakers to win

[boba]

i like the points. i'll tail half a unit on this one.

Great points here, the only thing that worries me is the T-Wolves recent form. If you've seen their last few games, they've looked horrible trying to close out the fourth quarter. Might still be enough against the Lakers bench, but don't forget just how bad this team is on the road.

[2daBank]

cha+7.5. i know they havnt played well on the road as of yet but i see this team getting it together the addition of jackson is starting to pay off they already played d now they are scoring a little more. spurs just arnt the same anymore and i just dont see them running away with this 1

[jdhender]

like charlotte and minnesota

[LaiLai]

I still think 15 1/2 is reasonable since lakers have won all games by double digit other then the heat games.

[2daBank]

that is true they are also avg winning by 15 or so on there current win streak but as i stated above they are about to do something they havnt did much of yet which is go on the road. if they run away with this 1 look for phil to be resting kobe and gasol for utah

Thanks for the kind words intangible and 2dabank. Razz_Donkey you are making a very good point about Minnesota. Your right they are a bad team and just pathetic on the road. That being said I was giving a general strategy for all Laker home games were they are a double digit favorite playing a vastly inferior team. I don't pick and choose my spots with this strategy. I just do it regrdless of my opinion on the other team. If I was scared of this strategy I couldn't have played it when the Nets came to town. The nets were losing by like 30 something pts at one time, but won the 4th quarter by 6 pts or so I believe. Either way it cashed. One thing to keep in mind Razz is the Lakers go on the road tommorow nite to challenge the Jazz and if this game goes according to plan the Lakers will have this wrapped way before the 4th quarter looking ahead to there road game tommorow nite and will be playing there bench most of the 4th quarter. I know the Lakers very well and sometimes I hit all 4 quarters in the game. I usually don't play all 4 quarters, but when I do I hit them all on occasion. Last time I played all 4 quarters was when the Knicks came to town and won them all. Tonite I am just playing Minnetota + 2 1/2 for the 4th quarter. I am also leaning on taking the Lakers -8 1/2 for the 1st half and -4 for the 3rd quarter. The second quarter and most times the 3rd quarter is when the Lakers make there statements.


Play: So far Minnesota + 2 1/2 4th quarter. As always this is gambling and it very well could lose so tail at your own risk. Personally, I would rather people reading this to dig into what I am saying and test it first rather than tail blindly. Make your own conclussions. This has been a gravy train for me this year so far. I know alot of people might play this and it very well could lose, but I am playing for win% here not just tonite. If it loses I will most certainly play it again when the opportunity arises. I will keep doing this until the trend is no longer working.

GL fellas!

[boba]

who is the former assistant coach to the lakers?

minnesota +15.5

and i'll tail the 4th quarter bet for half a unit.

[brock]

I'm going to try Minn first half.

[2daBank]

not sure im down with minny 1st half brock as lake show may try and wrap this 1 early but gl

Great points and advice once again, its post like these that really help out the beginners and experts here. You've uncovered an interesting angle, and I'm gonna tail you with it. Lets hope the T-Wolves can close out the last quarter better than what they've been doing in the past 2-3 games. I'll shoot you some points as well, great contributions.

Thanks Razz for the points. Feel stupid if I contribute to you losing your money. Again, this is gambling anything is possible. If you are tailing here don't do so unless you are making the commitment to do so every time this opportunity arises. It is possible it loses, but I like your chances staying the course over a full season. I can't wait to LA gets that D.J. Mebenga back healthy playing the 4th quarter and blow out games. Talk about a weak player.

Criteria for a play.

Lakers at home as double digit favorites playing a vastly inferior opponent. Take opponent plus the pts for the 4th quarter.

Best of Luck to all your plays.

Certainly lyon, I'm tailing you because I think you've made valid points and want to show some support. Its gambling, so I'm well aware that the play might lose, I never hold it against someone. All thats important is that you showed solid reasoning for your play, and I'm going to get on board with it. Good luck to us, I'll be paying attention to any other gems like this from you in the future.

[2daBank]

ok we know the 2 gms i like but im itching to make a bet on the cle/por gm any thoughts? 1st half cle? is -6 to much for 1st?

[lyon804]

I got the over in Cle/Por. Who knows. I went small on all my plays. This card looks sharp by the bookies.

[2daBank]

[lakerboy]

told you we be on the same train of thought LB what do you think of cha+7.5?

sorry missed this post. no opinion on that game

[S.K.M.]

I wouldn't play against the spurs. This line would be bigger but they are 0-4-1 ATS last 5 and they been playing like shit lately. They will get their act together very soon (maybe tonight) once Pop figures out what he wants with lineup combos, etc. I see a double digit win tonight....

[2daBank]

well cle looks like str8 shit at least it was just a .25 of a unit dgen play
