    what so surprising ? either way Lakers still have a reputation
    even though they are not playing well and barely were lucky enough to
    get one up on the Clippers last night right at the finish.
    Bulls are a plowhorse team with energy and determination at home.
    I like the Bulls and will be fine with going pk

                Lakers not playing very well, Chic is playing well. The play here is Chic to win by a 4. Good luck on your wagers today.

                        Friday night prime time game on ESPN, all of Phil and Jordan's banners hanging there, pumped up crowd. This seems like the kind of game that Kobe will be fired up for.

                        Lakers best game is better than Chicago's best game. I'll take LA.

                              I was originally on the Bulls but the thing that scares me about taking them is they are the 2nd best team on the court, and that the Lakers are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 while the "sharps" have been cleaning up betting against the Lakers. Is it realistic that "sharps" win every single time? Shouldn't this line be -4.5 Lakers? I think the line is actually giving value to the Lakers, I bought in for -1 Lakers. If the Bulls win then they win, but I'm taking the better team tonight.

                              Good luck all.

                                      Line is indeed strange. Chicago is a trap - be careful.

                                        This is a chance for the Bulls to really step up but I remember the last 2 quality opponents the Bulls played. Orlando at home and Celtics at Boston. Bulls were totally outplayed. Hoping for a Bulls win but not willing to bet it.

                                          Might depend on what you get this one at.. I got lakers -1.5, but I agree- with being on national tv tonight, the lakers may try and make a statement in an away game.

                                            Good article on ESPN about Kobe and his praise for Rose - seems like he might take this game pretty seriously

                                                        inflated??? you said the game line should be 4.5, which is the opposite of inflated


                                                        in any case, The bulls are a 50-55 win team this year...the fact that they are underdogs in this game is just ridiculous. It's the media's fascination with the lakers that keeps giving them these gaudy lines that they have done a terrible job of covering this year

Is it realistic that "sharps" win every single time? Shouldn't this line be -4.5 Lakers? I think the line is actually giving value to the Lakers, I bought in for -1 Lakers. If the Bulls win then they win, but I'm taking the better team tonight. Good luck all.
                                                          I agree with this. I have made some money this year fading the Lakers but they should get it done tonight. Also taking the better team even though on the road. Last time I checked, they still have a 6' 10" PF who can handle the ball and play D, and a Spanish 7' 0" center who can pass the rock and score in the paint. The Lakers also have a good defense and I'll take that against a Bulls team that has trouble scoring for long stretches at times. Besides Rose, which PGs always rip up the Lakers, who do the Bulls have? Loul Deng? Boozer? Taj Gibson? Some may say this line is a trap but don't get it twisted. Win or lose I'm taking the better team in this game. You don't get the Lakers -1 to -2 often. The Lakers also have the ultimate closer and wildcard as well. I've also noticed that the majority of the Bulls backers don't give an explanation of their Bulls play. They simply post, "I like the Bulls." Give me some backup to what you're saying. Why do you like the Bulls? Just cuz? They are overmatched at every position besides PG. Lakers are a bad matchup for the Bulls. BOL everyone.

                                                            Yes, the Lakers have trouble covering games where they're favored 7-9. They're at around -2 tonight right? Different ballgame tonight witht the way the lines are set. Don't say they have had trouble covering all year and compare it to tonight's game where they're a 2 point fav.

                                                                ill take the bulls , lakers have been choking of late, just a few words of someone elses wisdom on the lakers game,

                                                                dont go by when the lakers are favored by 7 to 9 pts they crash and burn etc etc

                                                                most players arent aware of spreads to cover once they re into the 3rd q and 4 q

                                                                its hardly at the back of their minds

I agree Chicago is a great team and the pick'em is probably accurate for this game. For this game though, the Lakers are not getting overvalued though, and I like them at -1.

                                                                  I see it is up to -2.5 now so the public has jumped all over it, for me -1 was a good bet. If yu took CHI I understand why, and I guess Best of Luck!

There are a lot of external motivators for this game as well for the lakers. Phil returns tto Chicago and Kobe goes to the place his idol played.
