man who was it that was going on about channing frye burning the lakers?  I'd almost regain respect for you if you owned up to it, but wow, game one made you look bad for that claim.  Like i said, suns just don't matchup well with the lakers who play their brand of basketball better than they do.  I want to look more into this one, but i have to lean seriously towards the lake show in game 2, just like last time.

 

LAL -2 1Q

LAL -5.5

THIS GAME SHOULD DEF BE CLOSER......I THINK THE REAL PLAY HERE IS THE UNDER....I WAS ON IT LAST TIME AND GOT TOASTED....LAKERS SHOOTING PERCENTAGES WERE REDICULOUS...PHO ONLY HAS ONE CHANCE TO WIN THIS GAME AND THAT IS IF THEY PLAY SOME FUCKING DEFENSE...AND LEAVE THAT CRAZY ARNOSON DUDE IN

I think Phoenix's only chance is to run like Usain Bolt. They have no shot in the half court. Based on that I'm thinking over again. And LAL wins again by 10+

The Suns are one of the best ATS teams in the league by record.  They can get very hot, very quick.  I don't think Kobie has 40 again in this one and I don't think that Odom out rebounds the top 4 bigs on the Suns like last game either.  This one will be far more close and competitive with better effort on the defensive ends by both teams.  Take the dog and the under in a little 2 teamer.........put a little on the Suns ML and knock this game all the way back to the desert!

good luck, but why?  Lakers no longer working w/ Vegas as it's time for them to roll.

I'm kidding, but seems like they haven't played the lethargic style of ball since the OK City series. On a roll like Boston seems to be.

Expect more of the same, just as Boston did to the Magic.  Very close scoring margin last night, and very close total to Celts-Magic game 1.  Before the game all you heard was how Orlando wouldn't do this again and wouldn't do that and the result was no different.  This is just a good matchup for the Lakers on their home court, just as Boston matches up well with the Magic.  Taking the Lakers at 7 and over.  I do believe both spread and total will fall much closer to the number though.  Until the Suns show me they can handle LA at all in LA...no way I trust them to play effective defense.  Just not the same as defending the Spurs.

did you guys hear how Armare was talking shit about Lamar? loL. Armare better show up to play tonight after that shit talking.. Lamar will not put up those number tonight, guaranteed. However, a well rested Kobe is always dangerous as we saw in game 1. Will he do the same in game 2, I sure hope not. The suns shot terrible from 3 pt. land. They will def. shoot better tonight. I just hope J. Rich, Hill and Nash get it going early. Armare will be Armare, and with the help of Lopez, it should be a close battle tonight. Lets go Vegas!

Small play Phoenix +7.

Did ya see that fuck-job with that total in last nights game? I was a little pissed off about that one - talk about a Royale w/ Cheese that shit woulda never happened if I had the Under. In this one tonight I think Phoenix just might get a couple at home but until they start hitting those big 3's I think LA will continue to outsize them and grab more boards. Could still possibly go 6 but Suns will have to shoot well at home -- Lakers -7.5 & VER 216

Thanks my friend.  I think the rake is play tonight for the boys in the desert.  Everyone saw what Boston did to Orlando......every talking head has been blathering on about it for 3 days now.  Everyone saw what LA did in game one and the same people are saying the same thing.  Seems like the betting world is on LA and the over tonight, so I'm going to take the extra point they put up there in the last day on both the total and the outcome...........then again the Lakers could beat them 124-98.........lol.........I think tonight's game will look like last nights game. 

Hey, can our Cubs get is going????  Big Z and Marshall in the pen with Tom G on the mound tonight........unreal........I got Philly -1.5 for a boatload!!!

With respect, I don't get the ML here.  Lakers at home...  what are they, -500? 

The Lakers are a far superior team, but prone to relaxation.  I wouldn't take them as heavy favorites in almost any game, but then again, I suffered through the Houston series last year. 

Cheers, 59

When I hear all that easy crap about the Lakers, it make me want to go with the other team.
