    Wow...its not like they are the cavs or the hornets...this team is still the team to beat reguardless of how old duncan looked in the last series...they still have the best defense in the league(dirty or not)...""To be the Man, you gotta beat the Man" and the lakers have not done that yet...

      So many guys getting reeled in on the Spurs.

      If Byron Scott wasn't such a knucklehead they would've lost game 7. He was outcoached. Badly.

          Duncan looks like shit, he's old and done. I really think Sprus should be +425, but thats me. I believe they get MURDERED, wont see a game 7, prob not even a game 6

            Despite these great odds on the Spurs, I took the Lakers at lousy odds.

              Spurs have a better top eight than Lakers so the series will be close.

                The reason there +305 Lakers havent lost at home, Spurs played less than 48 hrs ago and havent gotten the best rest sounds like good odds maybe +7 the best bet but ill leave game one alone to see how the rest of the series will play out.

                  Duncan
                  Ginobili
                  Parker
                  Horry
                  Bowen
                  Finley off the bench
                  Udoku another bigger guy

                  This team has a lot more talent

                  Big deal some are old, they beat the youngest team with the most energy so far.

                    I agree. Doesn't this happen just about every other year? Doubt the Spurs and they end up winning the championship yet again. After Kobe Pau and Odom the Lakers are pretty short on depth. Vlad Radmonovic, Sasha Vujacic, Luke Walton? Please. Lakers may win tonight but I don't see them winning the series.

                      YES! Spurs have to overcome sleeping on the plane, not having time for practicing/preparing a thorough gameplan, and playing against a biased commissioner and REFEREES!!

                      The odds are set correctly!

                          Spurs were held up at airport after game #7. Trip to LA took eleven hours.

                          Game 1 is much bigger for the Lakers. The Spurs grow into a series and no team is better in making adjustments along the way. That ability plus their playoff experience should decide the series. LA should be the more motivated team tonight.

                            Just to answer the original question..............it seems a bit high to me. I didn't take either side, but I thought it wouild be closer to -200 or so.

                              Yup, and Pau is too soft to go against Duncan and the rough playing spurs, his elegant little floated and jump hooks wontt work as well against the champs.

                                Spurs at +1 million would have looked good too. Also would have been the wrong side to be on.

                                  Woulda been a nice hedge though
