Lakers as dogs tomorrow @ OKC.

[peacebyinches]

i like the thunder in this one, dunno for sure though

[bryant81]

Big game for both teams. If LA wins, that will increase their lead on OKC to 4.5 games. OKC wins and that lead shrinks to just 2.5. Lakers win this with no Perkins for OKC.

[kaijunn]

this reminds me of that night when Cavs were favored to beat the Pistons by 1 or 2 points while they were on their 20 something losing streak..then Detroit punished them.

[aireent777]

I say Lakers squeaked by 2-3 points at the last seconds. FTs at the end makes it 4-6 points Laker win.

[Mexes]

Lakers will win.

[Pauulzcappin]

I'm waiting for vyomguy to come on the thread and say: Lakers loose big tomorrow

[paco]

The line you set. That means OKC would also be only +3 on Staples Center. They are not the heat paco.

Thunder give lakers problems. Look at last years playoffs, basically wouwent to a game 7 if not for Gasols tip in in the last second. And Westbrook is even way better this year. Deep bench also. Just my thought, I believe Thunder cover.

[wikkidinsane]

Run away. This game will be filled with more swings than a elementary playground

[madrabbit]

I dont like this I remember last season the lakers won in overtime in the first meeting in OKC by 3, got smashed in the 2nd game then in the playoffs lost there twice and the last meeting needed a pau gasol tip in with a second left in game 6.

[Mikail]

gonna live bet this game. Get both sides at +even for guaranteed profit.

[cleaveland]

The Lakers are the #1 most popular basketball play on betcris.

[daimoshokage]

lakers in a route!

[ANGRYBLACK]

Lakeshow.

[AbleFollow]

Laker mus win there... Big guys make it clear I think

[Anthonyg7]

Any controversial games you guys talk about, I'm staying the hell away.

I set this line with OKC as -4.5 pt faves in this game.

As for the +3 at Staples... This notion of a +/-3 point swing for home court advantage depending on home or away does correspond with the league average of home teams scoring 3.1 ppg more than the road team, however, applying this average to every matchup is totally wrong as each team has a unique home court advantage, and they vary A LOT from team to team.

In this case, Thunder -4.5 @ OKC is equivalent to Lakers -7 @ Staples.

No one wants to talk about them traded players like Perkins and Nate Robinson? Are they playing this sunday?

This show case here can be wager if you match them players up. Kobe and Durant..ect and ect...

[meckis]

Should be interesting game.

[BayArea888]

Lakers will find a way...kobe.

[GTS925]

Will the Black Mamba play?

[barcelonafc]

Lakers take this one, big bet for me

[nulldah]

will be fun game to watch again. like the lakers, thunder will need time to adjust perk and nate into their play

[monkeyking]

like someone said before, the thunder have screwed up in 2 of these big sunday afternoon home games before (vs boston and miami) and are 2-5 on sundays overall...its lakers or nothing imo

Nate Robinson might get some minutes but Perkins is out for another 2-3 weeks.

[NBA_Brosuf]

Nate Robinson might get some minutes but Perkins is out for another 2-3 weeks.

Thank you for the tip lead.

Lets see if Kobe can handle the #1 leading scorer in the league right now, Kevin Durant.

I'm not betting on this game but I"m smelling OKC win SU. When this happens, Kobe is going to take out his frustration on them poor Timber wolves by Tues Evening.

Damn. It was a dog fight to the end. Nice job LA backers.

[paco]

Good call Laker backers.

Did you play OKC then?

[suicidekings]

Did you play OKC then?

No. I had the Lakers ML, added live in the 1Q. However I didn't post the play anywhere on here.

When my numbers say a team should be favoured by 3.5 pts more than the books say, I tend to look to the other team or pass.
