    The Lakers are dogs but +385 series dogs?

    The regular season isn't meaningless so of course the Thunder made it look like its their year. Straight up Oklahoma City is the clear pick. But the Lakers are healthy have been hurt all through a shortened season, have the best shooting guard in the game, and isn't Bynum always talked about as 2nd to Howard? You can't take the Thunder at -450 can ya?

    I wouldn't want Thunder -450 but I also would pass on the series price and just try betting game to game. The -450 series price is obviously in line with what the games will be. Lakers +7.5 on the road, and they'll probably be slight underdogs at home as well.

    You might not want to take the Thunder, but you sure don't want to take the Lakers...

    Just wait until after game one and you'll have a better price on LA.

    Bynum is hugely gifted athletically.... too bad it doesn't carry over
    in attitude and mindset. He hasn't adjusted to his role as #2 man....
    big difference from playing as the #3.

    Agree.

    They were life and death against a very average Denver team. Denver ran out of gas and Blake gets 19. Thunder is to quick. I'd rather play the sweep odds on the Thunder than try to convince myself the Lakers have value at +385. They will be lucky to win a game.

    Problem for OKC is they play no D and Bynum when healthy usually plays well against Perkins.

    HUGE OKC fan here but as all year -7.5 is too much. OKC has had over inflated lines all season.
