@ Bator

I don't think it's any accident that the Lakers haven't covered a spread against the Wolves since Kurt Rambis became Minnesota's head coach.


this was he main reason i was on t-wolves in first game and the same reason i will be on them again. It was obvious Lakers played at 80-90% of theor max.

Now there is a good chance that that November 9th game, along with the strong games the Wolves have played since, has gotten the Lakers' attention.  Surely they'll take this Minnesota team more seriously tonight than they did in Los Angeles ten days ago.  But as for wanting to embarass them, I don't think so.  I don't think it's any accident that the Lakers haven't covered a spread against the Wolves since Kurt Rambis became Minnesota's head coach.  The Minnesota Timberwolves are the last team in the NBA the Lakers want to humiliate.

This Lakers -9.5 play could very well work out, but if it does, I think it will have everything to do with a newfound respect the Lakers have gained for the Wolves, and will have nothing to do with being angry at the Wolves for losing to them in LA by only 5 points.


Lakers covered their last game with wolves last season.. they were only favored by 7.5 points and they won by 9..

I feel for the Lakers in order to want to pound the Wolves the Wolves would have to collapse. I think people are starting to see this team is a bottom feeder but one that must be respected. I don't trust the -9.5, at home they just may play cocky enough for a slight win. Sooo with that said. I'm going to parlay the Lakers and Heat -the pts and TEASE it. Give em both 4 basket only safe thing for me to do. Or I'll switch the Heat and add Bucks. But I'll have a single bet more than like Bucks at -3.5, another slip Lakers -9.5 + Miami -11.5 (teased) for a large play.

I'm actually on the other side of the Jazz. I hear Sloan may not be there? Also Millsap with the flu and Al Jefferson possibly out? Either way Spurs and Greg are way too professional to let some broad distract them from greatest. It'll be close, but I'm on the Spurs.

I hope Durant does play on a bad ankle. It will make the Celtics play harder with him on the court.

Garnett has slight beef with Durant and the calls he got last metting. With that said, I'm siding on Celtics -8.0, lots of points but I see them getting it done, especially at home.
