Lakers -2.5 for game 4

[BigDofBA]

YES.

OK.

[tullamore21]

Is LA going to score half of their points at the free throw line game?

Is Kobe going to goto the line on calls away from the ball like 10 times in the final minute again?

is Bynum gonna shoot 2 of 13 again tomorrow and Barnes no shooting at all?

[BigDofBA]

is Bynum gonna shoot 2 of 13 again tomorrow and Barnes no shooting at all?

I guess we will just have to wait.

Good game Lakers and Laker backers.

[No coincidences]

BOTH.why do you always think that sharp money is smart money?

So despite moving from -2.5 to -1 in a matter of minutes, everyone -- sharps and squares alike -- are stupid for taking the Thunder tomorrow?

[BigDofBA]

OKC being up in this series is luck but you wont see that cause you are an okc fan. The lakers have hung with the thunder the last two games and should be up 2-1 and you know it.

OKC could be up 3-0 right now. Just be glad LA got over 40 points at the free throw line.

Maybe you don't see it because you're a Lakerboy.

[tullamore21]

I guess we will just have to wait.

Good game Lakers and Laker backers.

my feeling is that the Lakers want it badly to tie the series and show that they aren't done yet.
If you check the box-score you could see that tonight everyone scored points and helped the team.
It's Lakers ML or nothing for me

[BigDofBA]

Pretty sure OKC wants it too.

LA still has to win in OKC.

hm

okc/lakers for today @pk now

yes.

[No coincidences]

yes.

OK.

I don't see how you could feel comfortable betting this game either way, but I guess we'll have to see. Good luck if you play it.

Only took 41 points from the free throw line for the Lakers to beat the Thunder by 3 tonight. . Be interesting to see how the game is reffed on Saturday. Thunder fan or Laker fan its a fact. Laker won that game by getting to the line and making there free throws. So what if Joey Crawford is a Laker fan has been for years its cool.

[You mad bro]

Lakers in 6 still has a shot ... About 2 % lmao .... Fck okc spurs sweeping the west!!!!!

[Pick'nParlays]

prob not coin. is bynum gonna go 2-13 again? are the lakers gonna shoot less than the opponent but still win? no coin you seem pretty convinced la is done.

2-13 with perfect free throws all game

they hack before he can score

[You mad bro]

SPURS ARE SWEEPING THE WEST ANYWAY ... But okc will win tonight by at least 5-8 points

[hawley]

Just looked at the current line and saw Laker -1. Immediately thought OKC were the play.

Now I see the Lakers opened at -2.5, got hammered to -1 and they are still the play?

I have no clue.

[BigDofBA]

of course coming from a thunderblind boy

OKC has beaten LA 4 out of 6 games this year and a few of those have been blowouts. LA beat OKC in double overtime after Harden got injured and won by three points at home because they scored 41 points at the free throw line.

Now you're saying LA is going to blow out OKC and win the series after one three point win at home? LA better win their home games because OKC held serve at home.

Also, how am I blind because I'm a Thunder fan but you're not when your your name is Lakerboy? You weren't talking when LA was down 2-0. I think you actually said OKC was going to get swept by the Spurs in the next round. Now after one Laker win you're back on the bandwagon? Are you really a fan or are you like 90% of the Laker fans out there that don't live in California and have never even been to LA?

I said I thought OKC would win in 6-7 games. I'm not changing from that. Even if LA wins tonight they still have to win in OKC.

LA has a huge edge in experience over our 23 year olds. It wasn't going to be an easy serious despite LA having a shitty coach.

[chankng]

LB it's LA+1 now the line changed over 3 points almost in one night. Are you still confident that lakers will take this? I was expecting the line to move to pk or lal-1 now it's kinda scary

[ephi408]

So you think LA is better?

I didn't ask you anything about OKC record. I asked you if you think the Lakers are better? Are they?

Ignorant question. NBA is about matchups.

[georgejung]

BigDofBA

this guy seems like he wants to blow the thunders starting five. This is a Lakers backer thread not thunder so GTFO homer

[bleek88]

LA has beaten OKC twice this year. Once in double overtime after OKC lost Harden and once by three points in a game in which LA shot 41 of 42 at the free throw line.

If LA blows OKC out, I will be surprised.

[Cobra07751]

It might say the line opened @ LA -2.5 but that is bullshit (Offshore). Pinny is the only one that opened LA -2.5 and that didn't last long. I had my DB Odds screen open all night, and all three of my outs opened @ Thunder -1.

I was up all night and none of my 3 offshore outs opened this @ Thunder -1.

[Cobra07751]

Thunder 6-1 SU playing a team on 0 days rest, Lakeshow 1-3. It will be fun to Kobe (39 Minutes), Bynum (40 Minutes), Gasol (36 Minutes), Artest (39 Minutes) get up and down the court with this team.

Lakers only played an 8 man rotation as they have one of the weakest benches in the playoffs.

Durant and Westbrook are the only Thunder players to play more than 30 minutes and they played a 10 man rotation.

[Speedy88]

LA is now a dog at pinny. Not sure what to make of the line movement......

[MendozaLine]

Feel OKC backers are going to get buried tonight. I don't how much money has been taken in on each side, but if I had to guess I would say there is a shit load of money on OKC tonight.

Vegas always cleans up on saturday night right?

Lakes getting a point and a half looks pretty good to me right now.

Sharps on OKC as well.

I have the lakers myself for 1 unit even though I think OKC will win, BUT I also think stern/refs will have a big hand in this game and rob the thunder of a easy win

[Balco10]

Like OAK -2 large...

OAK is the more talented and younger team with equal experience in the playoffs. Why are so many Laker backers? They have no bench and got sweep last year vs the Mavs.

Smart.

I'm not betting the game. I'm just going to root for my team. With that said, taking some live if you can get like 5 points might not be a bad strategy.

[top310]

Public wins too , just bet the better team here

[suicidekings]

For anyone caught up in the story of the rising young stars of OKC, the Thunder look like an obvious choice tonight, as demonstrated by all the action they're getting. The younger team on the B2B coming off a 3 point loss where their opponent made a living at the FT line. I get it... But I disagree. H2H regular season record doesn't mean much here, any more than it did for the Bulls sweeping the Heat in the 2010-11 regular season, only to get slaughtered in the ECF. That series also started with the young underdog smacking the veteran favourite in the face in a Game 1 beatdown, before the veteran team took control of the series.

I don't know if I agree with a Laker blowout, but I do think LA takes command in this game, and takes it back to OKC tied at 2-2. From that point onward, it could go either way, IMO.

[Dark Horse]

Lakers don't win that game last night without the refs help. Tonight's refs are less friendly to LA. A combined 10-20 ATS in their last 10. Lakers tired legs won't help them. OKC will push the tempo, and the Lakers will try to slow it down. Advantage OKC.

[lakerboy]

I can't imagine pinny was 4 points off with the -2.5 opener.

[No coincidences]

Lakers by 1 or 2? Don't rule it out.

Where amazing happens.
