    Question for NBA forum?

    If the suns played the Lakers in la starting tonight 10 straight times on alternating nights how many times do you guys think the suns would win?

    I think after tonight you will have a better feel on how this series plays out, with la finally turning it on and the suns running on all cylinders

    8-2 LA. Also, the Lakers would only win 3 of 10 games in PHX

    Considering the Lakers health situation, I would say the Lakers would win about 5 times. I think the teams are a lot closer right now than people want to believe.

    So are you saying that oddsmakers have made a big mistake by making the suns +270ML tonight? If i go by your opinion the suns should be a huge play considering the line is off 70 cents. Correct?

    the road team is 4-0 ats this year and I really have to think that the suns have to win game 1 because a phil jackson team does not lose if they win game 1 I really like the value of the pick but do you think the suns are going to be able to play there game after a long layoff hence the magic I dont know, I just like the lakers style of offense after a layoff LB if your going to take the suns ML it would be for value.

    I don't think the Suns stand a chance vs the Lakeshow...and that's my own personal unbiased opinion. I'm not an LA fan.

    Not sure they had complete info on Bynum before this line was put out, with that said I dont think the line would be any different anyway.

    these teams haven't played a game since last season, legs should be fresh but timing off. Under as in under.

    Did the oddsmakers make a mistake by making Orlando -6.5 when both teams are pretty evenly matched? Or was it a mistake to inflate public opinion on the Magic last series, just to hammer the public this series?

    I can't say if the oddsmakers are making a mistake or not, because it seems like the money is close to being even. We both know that Vegas isn't always putting sharp lines out there.

    But I will say that I'll likely be on the Suns for a couple of units.

    I cant answer your question about the spread because i was asking you about the ML. My question wasnt about the other series as it has nothing to do with this one.

    Your opinion is that the suns can win 5 games out of 10 in la and i respect your opinion. My question was if the suns ml +270 is a mistake? If LA wins by 6-7 points tonight what you think the ML will be for game 2. In my opinion the line is 100% correct. The suns would most likely win 2-3 games in La out of 10.

    A 'mistake' in the sense that I think the Suns would win more than 27% of the time? Yes. But I think the ML is also being dictated by public perception.
