You'd have to think the Thunder will smack around the Lakers tomorrow night

[t-wizzle]

Lakers have to be pretty spent coming off that tough Denver series. Kobe is likely still recovering from his illness and it's going to be tough for the Lakers to transition to this series after an emotional 7 game series.

I don't necessarily think that the Thunder will win this series but they should take Game 1 easily. Only thing working against Oklahoma City is the long layoff.

The only logical play here is Thunder -7.5.

[t-wizzle]

At least that's what i think anyway...

[PickWinnerAllDay]

pity bump.

[ChalkyDog]

That is a shit ton of points. Lakers are a huge public wager, but I think most will be on the Thunder.

Don't know yet, might sit this one out. Lakers +7.5 is crazy, IMO.

Lol. Twiddle, you lost units again today. What's wrong? Where's the plan and the comeback?

Why would I need a comeback?

You are down a lot.

[fishtot]

DAMN, told you!!

[BigDofBA]

So you thin LA wins the series?

[Elliot29]

Thunder and celtics are the plays

[Tarrum]

Well rested Oklahoma, tired Lakers and Kobe not in his top notch condition, this on paper should mean OKC has it easier. But haven't we seen this year that even in regular season, Lakers can easily lose against the OKC.

I also think it will definitely be over 191 points. Btw, does +number at one team means you bet that it will lose? I'm from Europe, so excuse me for asking this probably stupid question.

-7.5 is a lot. Better to wait for in game prices, hope the lakers come out hard (pause)

+ means you give that team x amount of points handicap. - means you take away x amount of points as a handicap. The team after the + or - is the team your backing plus the point spread.

Yes but not nearly as confident as you in OKC

[christhegun]

Play thunder 1st q

[riffraff24]

I don't understand why Kobe is the discussion here. We all know what we will get from Kobe. The talk should be about every laker not named Kobe and if they will show up or not.

Thunder will let Kobe get his as long as they shut everyone else down

[tdotknight]

I think OKC will cover the spread!

[ParlayJunkie]

If Bynum and Gasol decide not to be flakes then Lakers can win this series.

[Sport_Fish]

Lakers will be lucky to win more than 2 games in this series.

Either way, I agree that the 1st game should be a blowout win for OKC

[jjgold]

If Kobe gets ball inside it will be close

[thetrinity]

lakers are much better at home then on the road, we all know this. im a little weary at okc being rusty in this game though. they havent played in 9 days and while la just played saturday night, i think they can get thru this game on adrenaline. think okc is priced about right in this series all things considered though. i wouldnt want to let this series drag on if im the thunder.

[t-wizzle]

Took the Thunder for 6 units.

[Speedy88]

Line up to -8 before tip, l like the line movement.

Hate rooting for these guys but..........go thunder

[BernardMadoff]

Perkins already pushing and manhandling Gasol off the block.

[wantitall4moi]

I said it awhile ago this is the one game lakers have a legit shot to win. After this even at hoke they should get rolled up. Only advantage they have tonight is OKC been sitting around for a week and a half and will be rusty.

[Sport_Fish]

Lakers would've been +600 or more for this series if it weren't for one reason and one reason only...Bynum.

[Inkwell77]

Put em to sleep okc. OKC is so much stronger all around.
World Peace is going to average 15 a game in this series for the Lakers to even have a shot at all.

[Dr. J Trotter]

Wow

Ball goes off harden refs give it to em

Harden throws elbow on blake and still gets the call

Durant flops and gets the call

The NBA wants this series to go 7 games

Either that or they feel sorry for OKC after the incident with Artest.

They dont need these calls to win.

[t-wizzle]

Game 1 could get ugly.

LOL

A few calls have went the Lakers way as well. A lane violation on OKC!!!! When was the last time you saw a lane violation called?

[QuantumLeap]

Play thunder 1st q

Nice call.

[t-wizzle]

22 point lead.

[PickWinnerAllDay]

Which means if they get 5 more points, and then blow it, it would equal out your biggest win in our challenge.

[t-wizzle]

Kinda like lakers in game 2
