    Brakon's Lock of the Year!

    I am currently in Vegas staying at Caeser's Palace. I posted in my NFL thread my 4 bets I made and I said I wouldn't be posting any NBA bets but the following game is a must. It is too good to be true and people will think that since it's too good to be true they shouldn't take it and they should take the home team as a 1 point underdog.

    Lakers -1 vs. Jazz

    ANYTIME I SEE THIS LAKERS TEAM AS ANYTHING LESS THAN 5 POINTS I POUNCE ON IT WHETHER ON ROAD OR AT HOME!

    ARE THE LINEMAKERS DRUNK???

    Jazz got crushed in LA....and LA has won last 7 out of 9 on road vs. teams in which they have won by 15+ at home then playing same team on road in last 6 years.

    2,200 TO WIN 2,000 on Lakers -1 vs. Jazz at Caeser's Palace!

    I like Utah here. I agree that if we wait the line wil lgo up to 3 or 4 by tonight. The lakers have only played 4 road games all year and are 1-3 SU. Lakers' starters got very little rest last night due to Min hangin around. I believe their startes played 165 to 170 mins last night. Utah is pissed off about their 4th quarter demise a few nights ago where they scored either 6 or 8 pts in the 5th quarter. Through 3 qtrs it was Utah who was in control of that game. And then as stated above, what about Kobe's finger.

    The Lakers are pretty damn good but I believe how good they are has been skewed due to the rediculous home/away ratio of their schedule so far. I think Utah takes this one SU but I too will wait til the line jumps some which I believe it will. If ure on the Lakers I would take it now. The only thing that will make the line move in favor of the laker backers tonight is if they announce that Kobe is going to sit this game out. Though I doubt that will happen.

    Utah must be upset when they had a meltdown in the 4th qrt the other nights. It is not a good spot to go. GL.

    You people need to quit discouraging Brakon. People like him are money in the Bank... For fading that is. Doubt, this Brakon has $2200 to his name let alone blows it on the Fakers. A fool in there money will soon be parted, lucky if that got together in the first place. This Kobe Bryant thing has fukked me all up. I wanted to wait for the line movement to gain more value on Utah, but his injury has the squares that have the info, unlike Brakon sitting on there hands. I was really hoping for a +130ML by tipoff.. Fukk the points here. Now. I most likely will pay -120 if I play it. Fukk me!

    Are you sure? Looks to me like he is. Seems to me he thinks that the line should be over Lakers -5, which would indeed be reasonable had Kobe not been injured, keep in mind he posted this morning when the line was Lakers -1, now they are +2. I don't know whether Kobe will play or not tonight so I'll have to do some research, but if Kobe doesn't play or he can't contribute much then the Lakers will lose tonight.

    Im staying away, even if Kobe plays he's not 100%. Even if he starts, his injury could worsen causing him to play less time than he normally would.

    Utah is one of the best home teams in the league. Not saying LA won't win but a lock to me seems ridiculous in this situation.

    Agreed! This is gambling so anything is possible. Lakers could blow out the Jazz tonite, but in my humble, yet experienced opinioin the play is on the Jazz or no play at all with or without Kobe makes no difference to me. Utah has one of the best home court advantages in the NBA. Lakers are in a bad spot here. Last time they went out on the road to play a back to back against a quality opponent was against Denver and they were run out of the building and humilated. I cashed that one and I am not passing up the Jazz here. Also keep in mind the Lakers, while good has padded there standings playing at home against mainly inferior opponents. The Lakers are now going on the road in a hostile environment, B2B nites against an opponent that wants revenge. Last, but not least the Lakers are not use to playing hard for 4 quarters. They will have to play 4 quarters on the road tonite to get a win.

    Lakers are 5-1 SU in the road in the last 6 games but that's with a healthy Kobe. Without Kobe, or with Kobe not playing 100% the results may have been completely different.

    Dude what a joke you are! Are you serious?? Do you work for the books? People like you is why Vegas is such an awesome place. I have been there on many occasions and I am always overwhelmed by the significance and the vast money spent on Vegas. As, I said before anything is possible. I however think the Lakers are a bad play at best. Vegas don't have what they have by putting out a weak line for all the sqaures to make easy money. Good Luck to you. I will have the other side.

    This is a weird spot IMO. I could actually see a letdown with Utah but with kobe's broken finger it becomes a toss up. I actually lean Lakers here, but with b2b and Kobe's injury it's a no play for me.

    there tricking people on this in my opinion. people with the most money in betting know that books make the lines easy for the "Easy pick" but they are flipping it here......Lakers are gonna win by 2.5+ i guarantee.....in fact anyone willing to bet with me 10 betpoints on this just send me a message and say you wanna wager on this ........

    once again......I'm a Laker/JAzz bookie for tonight on SBR points......10 points on Lakers -2.5....i'm that confident!!!!!!

    if lakers win by less than 3 or lose I will give 10 betpoints when I get it...i currently don't have betpoints because i have them on wagers in the SBR book. I'll make sure I dont spend points or give away for a week so I can send out the points If lakers dont win by 3 or more

    Good luck to you Brakon, it's gonna be a good game. For anyone considering a bet with Brakon I can say that he was honest with his betpoints. He and I made a bet via pm the other night for 6 points and he paid them promptly when he got them.
