    Is it money down the drain?

        Rockets are 0-4 this year agains the Lakers, and historically have played poorly against them. Why throw away good money?

              As much as I love the Rockets as a fan, Lakers will win.

                I live in Houston and I don't see them winning the series. But I think Lakers will have there hands full and Houston won't go down with out a fight. I don't see them going 0-8 against the Lakers this yr though.
                If it seems to good to be true it usually is!!

                I have a natural instinct to exploit market ineffieciencies!!

                    I think they might get swept or lose in 5.

                        Giving good earned money away is never a good thing. Rockets ML is just that.
                        Double Up. Hit em in the head.

                          Anything is possible, but the Lakers seem way to determined to slip up this early.

                                      Not only will Rickets not win series, but they may not win a game.

                                      You are better off searching for Lakers in 4 props.

                                          It looks like good value to me. Obviously everything would have to break right, but Yao is playing the best he's ever played and Bynum isn't there yet and Gasol can't check him and quick point guards give Derrick Fisher trouble.

                                          I'd scalp out if the Rockets steal an early game, but there is Laker hype in this line.

                                            Is getting 10% return on the Lakers even worth it, even if its a large sum?

                                              The Laker's seem very uninspired so far. They have been toying with opponents and have been awful in closing an opponent out in games. Houston is very disciplined and will find ways to limit LA's run spurts. If the Laker's get in crunch time with Houston it could be very hard to finish with Battier and Artest guarding Kobe. I think the Lakers win in 5 or 6 but each game will be very close. I'm fading LA every game because the lines will be highly inflated. I'm also going to fade LA in the 2nd half. They are horrible.

                                              This bet may be worth throwing a few dollars at.

                                                      There is no value in a bet that is destined to lose...

                                                      This is similar to all those who found "value" in betting Montreal against Boston...

                                                        Kobe blows his knee out in game 1 and you've got a 50/50 shot.

                                                        I see Bynum giving Yao fits.

                                                            Good value, they have somewhat of a chance but need to win game 1 or 2.

                                                              I took them at +780 on Matchbook. Loser? Probably. But it should be a +500 loser, not +780.
