    If Boston rips Orlando apart again in Game 4, and Lakers wrap up their series in 5 (that's my guess, anyway) -- what series prices are we looking at for LAL?

    My guess: no more than -210.

    It'll probably open at Lakers -190

    Eventually it'll go down to Lakers -165

      Doesnt matter what Boston do next game. You will NEVER get a fair line with the Lakers. Boston covered every game in the 2008 finals. I say LA -245. LA was -200 in 2008 without homecourt.

        -165 goat? That may be wishful thinking. I'd be all over -165 for sure.

          I think it'll open at -195 or so but the public will be on Boston for sure. They've cruised through the playoffs with ease, so I think sharps will pound Boston early as soon as its like +140 and LA will get down to about -170 possibly at some point with sharps and public both on Boston as soon as the line opens.

          If LA sweeps the Suns then it's a different story but I don't think that's going to happen.

          I wouldn't be so quick to jump on LA bro, they can't beat Boston right now. They have a lot of work to do....

              BOS vs LAL should be a good series.

                I would like to see the Lakers series go at anywhere near -200, since I took them for the past 2 rounds, but I don't really think they have a 66.67%(-200) implied probability of winning. Is this Lakers team that much better then they were in 2008 and/or is the Celtics that much older.

                  I don't know about the Lakers having an easy time. The Celtics have big guys who can bang with the Lakers. Plus Davis and Perkins have been playing well.

                  If they can get Gasol in foul trouble early that will bode well for the Celtics. It will be an awesome matchup between Kobe and Rajon.

                  I am pulling for Rajon to show Kobe up, I know it's not likely but I would be very happy to once in the playoffs, see Kobe look human.

                    Rondo won't guard Kobe....Ray Allen will guard Kobe.

                    Rondo is not a good 1 on 1 defender. He's a team defender, and far too small to guard Kobe

                      Here's the line you were asking for Teal, wait a few more days and it'll be at the -165, watch.

                        already -170, goat. good call.

                        The books were obv impressed with Boston in the ECF, as they should be. But still, -170 is interesting.
