Lakers -10 vs Cavs

PR9 · 01-13-12, 02:00 AM

Lakers I suspect cavs will be spent. they exuded a lot of energy in phx tonight

Swan4brownlow · 01-13-12, 02:23 AM

Lakers first half, hopefully Bynum Kobe and Pau turn it on. Only danger would be LA coming out flat simply expecting to win

Speedy88 · 01-13-12, 02:30 AM

I like Lakers too.

Just concerned with the look ahead factor to the LA Clippers match Saturday? You guys think thats a factor?

And I could see Kyrie giving the Lakers fits. Lakers struggle against teams with good PG play. Not sure what the total is, but I could see this being a pretty low scoring game.

I have to think the Lakers have Clippers in their sights. Can't go LAL here, so it's Cleveland or Pass for me. Handicapping 101....find value or stay away. Can't see their being any value on LAL here plus potentially a let down spot.

Your right. Lakers look like the obvious....square play. There are better games on the card tomorrow. Philadelphia looks nice, the Wizards are a mess right now. Also like New Orleans +1.

I mean they could wax Cleveland, but i don't think this "situation" warrants a play (win or lose). If anything yesterday was a look ahead since they had LAL today. Too bad they're awful and this is a lofty number strongly leaning towards LAL, but regardless if LAL beats them by 10 or not i still think it's a risky move.

Id much rather pick apart different portions of today's card.

Mike Brown game. Take cavs

B1AZE · 01-13-12, 07:51 AM

ohhhhh......how dumb of me to forget that.

surprised nobody mentioned that. Big game for both teams.....leaning under as i think both teams will be playing tough. IMO

Swan4brownlow · 01-13-12, 07:58 AM

If both teams play tough then surely that helps the lakers because the cavs have the fatigue factor. Whether the lakers play hard or not is what should determine this game

thebestthereis · 01-13-12, 09:21 AM

The Lakers are not looking ahead to anyone

Antwon1825 · 01-13-12, 09:52 AM

Cavs will stay with in 5, anyone care to bet otherwise?

cleaveland · 01-13-12, 09:58 AM

Kyrie Irving is an amazing player, he has superstar potential imho. Irving v. Fisher is a joke of a matchup and it could cost the Lakers this game.

kobefanatic · 01-13-12, 10:23 AM

i like the cavs in this game, hopefully lakers won't care about this game

dynasty27 · 01-13-12, 12:07 PM

Thing that worries me about taking the cavs is they have no TRUE center...Bynum should have a monster game tonight. It really could go either way, not only for the spread, but the total as well. If the cavs keep it close they will be running and gunning and the over could hit. If the lakers pound inside, they will walk away with it and the under could hit....stay away

Guy has been playing well and so has Kobe! I don't see any reason, especially with Cleveland playing b2b while being on the road for a few days, why they can't blow out the Cavs tonight.

BigBurk · 01-13-12, 12:13 PM

Mixed feelings around here! Still feeling good about my bet though. I dont really think the Lakers will play less motivated beacause the Clippers are waiting for em. As for Irving.. not tonight.

Yupp!

darkhat · 01-13-12, 05:13 PM

I'm staying away from this one. I always have trouble trusting the lakers with big spreads.

not true.

Kobe is always looking towards after the game and getting with those "whores"

Mike Brown motivated to dominate his old team who fired him to please LBJ. Kobe will want to stick it to Dan Gilbert for opposing the CP3 trade. Lakers win big.

dmncnlou · 01-13-12, 06:59 PM

3 games in 4 nights plus an OT. This game has trap written all over it. I thought the line would be 12 1/2 to 13.

ReignMaker · 01-13-12, 07:08 PM

Also, Dan Gilbert wrote that letter to David Stern that made him block the Chris Paul trade to Lakers. Kobe might be extra motivated to take it out on the Cavs tonight.

BigBurk · 01-14-12, 11:28 AM

Wow.. The Lakers just really let it be the 2H. I guess they were thinkg about their next game already like some of you said. Good lesson for future bets.
