Why are lakers getting points against Spurs? Spurs have NO incentive to beat lakers

[seaborneq]

Spurs have their own problems/injuries and seed already in place. Who's the play tonight?

[JayLA]

i'm up 500% in the last three weeks. have a prop lakers to make p-o............kobe is out...........spurs can take a loss. im puttin 100 on LA ML, fukk it.

[Iwinyourmoney]

Spurs playing for the number 1 seed.

Da fuk u mean that got nothing to play for

You don't follow nba much do you?

[Ballerholic]

seaborn you good bro? spurs playing for #1 playoff spot....

[lakerboy]

Spurs don't care about 1 seed.

[raydog]

You don't follow nba much do you?

you are fukking drunk if you think that san an would rather play houston instead of l.a. or utah in rd.1

[JayLA]

Have we all missed Spurs conservative approach to startin players? They don't necessarily need #1 spot.

you are fukking drunk if you think that san an would rather play houston instead of l.a. or utah in rd.1

Sure...west wide open. understood. spurs still can lose this one and surprise us in the playoffs...you all really think Lakers lose this one...LOL

Im fine either way...good luck!

[convick]

Spurs don't care about 1 seed.

So Spurs don't care where they play OKC? They have won 8 of 9 in SA vs OKC and have lost 6 of 7 at their place. Tell me home court doesn't mean a thing.

[R.P. McMurphy]

And Lakers not playing for anything either in reality. This team has 0 belief at this point any slim chance they had at winning 1 series went out the window Friday. Pop and Spurs much better team and coach , Lakers gonna have issues at guard from talent and depth standpoint!

[lakerboy]

you are fukking drunk if you think that san an would rather play houston instead of l.a. or utah in rd.1

Not yet. Will be later though. Utah and lal present big matchups issues in the paint for the spurs. They are better playing houston. Either way spurs won't win the first rd against anyteam. They are washed up and hurting.

[Ballerholic]

How do spurs not care? I'd rather play lakers 1st round and have home court against thunder. Some of you posters just are unbelievable

[seaborneq]

Spurs playing for the number 1 seed.

Da fuk u mean that got nothing to play for

spurs can't get the number 1 seed.

[DJ Dalamar]

They are only half a game behind OKC. Lakers fighting for a spot at all. Tough call. I got Spurs -3.

[raydog]

spurs can't get the number 1 seed.

lolz... wrong

[TheMoneyShot]

Everyone drunk in this thread

[raydog]

please stop embarrassing yourself with these ignorant predictions.

[R.P. McMurphy]

How do some of you bet on sports when you cannot do simple math? Spurs .5 game back with 2 left!

[seaborneq]

lolz... wrong

OKC wins out, spurs are stuck at the 2 seed.

[NBA Maniac]

Lakers to get 8th spot doesn't need to win, if Utah doesn't win is own games...
So i prefere to be away from today game... and see what happens...
So we can bet on the next Utah Game....

BTB general public still prefere to see Lakers without Kobe on playoffs then Utah Jazz, even the opponents prefere Lakers (LOL)

[JayLA]

I love how sports bettors attack intelligence when essentially, we're all throwin darts...unless you have mainframes.......

good luck assholes!
lakers win or lose; I still think I'm smarter than you, spurs backers!

[Potentate]

They are only half a game behind OKC. Lakers fighting for a spot at all. Tough call. I got Spurs -3.

I did too. Wondering if I should feel better about it than I do, as in, better enough to hit it again for a few more units...

Is this for real though? Enough people are thinking the Lakers win this to move the line all the way to +/-3? Time to fade the public?

[vasilli07]

Utah big matchup problem? Did u see how Spurs swept them last season? Utah haven't change much so why would the result be different?

[seaborneq]

How do some of you bet on sports when you cannot do simple math? Spurs .5 game back with 2 left!

OKC with better conference record and they tied the spurs head to head. Again, if OKC wins out it doesn't matter what Spurs do. Spurs have already clinched number two seed due to Denver's loss the other night.

you are the dumbest of them all, spurs have 3 games and tie breaker

ahhh, the "public."

have you followed this line today?

[seaborneq]

they played each other twice, split, they both have 21 losses, OKC has better conference record. What stats are you looking at?

[lucasdawg]

going with spurs overall better team. even if they play crap better chance then lakers going good.

[Potentate]

ahhh, the "public."

have you followed this line today?

Not all day, but since I've been watching it went from 4.5, I think, to 3.

[R.P. McMurphy]

Yeah I get it Seaborn that SA has little chance to get the #1 but some of you are making it sound like OKC already has it locked up was the impression I was getting. Anyhow gl tonight everyone!

[lakerboy]

Raydog I still like you. I always laugh when you try to tell me about the nba.

[seaborneq]

From NBA.com, Ballerholic, if you can read and comprehend, this is for you, up to date information, look at the tiebreakers and tell me how SA owns it over OKC.
