    Load up on the Lakers -6
    Rockets are tanking for a better draft pick. Coming off a home loss to the CLIPPERS, I like the Lakers to cover the -6. The Rockets roster is also depleted.

    Injuries-
    Kevin Martin
    Jarred Jeffries
    Jordan Hill
    Shane Battier
    David Andersen

      The Lakers are only waiting for the playoffs. The remaining regular season games don't mean a thing to them.

          This has trap written all over it. Only -6 vs this awful Houston side with no defense what so ever?

            This is a completely different Rockets team. Half the team is injured or playing injured. Here is a look at the available roster tonight.

            Trevor Ariza
            Hilton Armstrong
            Aaron Brooks
            Chase Budinger
            Mike Harris
            Chuck Hayes
            Kyle Lowry
            Luis Scola
            Jermaine Taylor

            Who's going to stop Gasol or Odom? This is a depleted team that's in tanking mode.

              This is a gift, not a trap.

                  It's a game the Lakers can win easily. But do they have the will and the zeal?

                          I would be more concerned with the fact that Elgin Baylor and Magic Johnson are listing as probably for the Lakers.

                            Lakers are gonna whoop their ass. Don't see why everybody is all skeptical. They just got embarrassed and will want to prove something.

                                  Yeah, the books give gifts all the time.

                                  I think ill pass on the guy who lost his 'lock of the century' or whatever. This Laker team is way too hard to bet on at this point.

                                    And Kenny Smith too. Clyde Drexler is questionable.

                                        That was a joke to act like I was upset at SBR after they implemented the tax. I didn't give a fukk if it won or not, didn't have money on it. Put a nice chunk of change on this game.

                                          You listed 5 injuries and say their tanking? Maybe they arnt as good without their starters playing. Nobody tanks for draft picks, lottery prevents that.

                                            I believe you said "the Lakers will beat the Heat 10 out of 10 times." It wasn't a joke, you were just wrong. Man up. Funny that both times you're on the Lakers too. I'm guessing this is a homer play.

                                              Rockets stopped playing defense a long time ago. In their last 18 games, they've given up 100+ points 10 times.

                                                    Rockets Aaron Brooks wayyy to much for Fisher/Farmer/Brown to handle. When LA can't contain the PG, they struggle.

                                                      Going with LA here also-even though they appear to be on cruise control.

                                                        That's the right line. Lakers just lost big and are playing a back to back on the road.

                                                          This is coming from a man that knows the Lakers inside and out better than anybody on this site hands down so I suggest you consider his advice on this one as written in stone meaning stay away unless you are going to take the Rockets +6

                                                            His reason isn't correct. This is nowhere near the same Rockets team that plays the Lakers well at home.

                                                                IMO the Lakers are disarrayed right now after getting the living bajesus beat from them last night meaning if they have a few mistakes in this game it can quickly turn into Kobe playing the blame game actually I believe their mind is still on last nights game long story short they do not have much experience with adversity cause losing is not in their vocabulary
