    Am I missing something here?
    Why would the Lakers be favored over the Suns to win the Pacific division (regular season only betting)?

    Does this make any sense with an injured Lebron? All Lakers and Clippers care about is being healthy for playoffs.

    Suns should be the favorite now.

    that's not how odds work for big tournaments. you have to understand that massive amounts of bets have already been placed all around the world. books never ever want to put themselves in a risky situation (and also arbing)

      He's a drama queen anyway. Looked like a minor hit, he lets out a primal scream because he fears the worst, then he hits a three, then he asks to come out. Might be back next game for all you know.

          it is funny cause that 3 kept his streak going of 10 or more points. he screamed like he saw the head in the box in Seven, made a 3 and came out. almost like he wanted to keep that streak going before leaving.

            They're saying 4-6 weeks now. So if that hold we're talking 18 games? Might the Lakers miss the playoffs?

                  He is not hurt. Lebron is lobbying for sympathy votes for the MVP he doesn't deserve.

                      Lakers are sinking like a stone! Almost certainly going to have to do the play-in tournament.

                        This is unlikely, they will probably sink to 7th but they had the best record in he league before AD got hurt so they should win a lot the last month of the season.

                          James is OUT until May. The season ends mid-May. THey wont have a month together. If they fall to 9th (or 10th) they will need to win successive games to enter the playoffs

                            3 more weeks for James, so it will indeed be May. They have to get through this...

                              4 games left for the Lakers. If they win out they'll probably still be #7 seed.
