Kobe was out there in the 4th Q w/ no Redd, Jefferson, Bogut.  The Bucks weren't throwing their starters out there either.  Joe Alexander was the best player on the floor.  tough push and wins  depending on whether you got it at 13 or 13.5  I was on the Bucks look at the numbers they won 4 out 5 vs LAL and they cover ATS vs LAL.  yeah it was probably lucky but that's the freaking NBA  bet Orlando tomorrow vs Clips

This is a funny yet serious topic!!!  I have been battling with these high Laker spreads and have come to realize that if it is a ridiculous 13.5 line you have to go the other way or tease the lakers.  Even teasing has cost me money and they have not covered because the scrubs screw around at the end.  Yesterday it took a lot to bet on the Bucks but I have lost so much being a Laker fan.  Not any more though because you can not bet thinking as a fan but thinking how to win against line.

The best way to bet on the lakers is if the line is 9 and lower.  Any time a team goes over 15 points the coach relaxes and lets the scrubs in.  This is when your bet goes to shit. Can not falt Phil Jackson he does not care about your loss due to a hook.

This is what will cause injuries because when they have to go 100% they will not be used to the 100% play when they need it. Lets see if this  practice brings them the title. If it does no problem, but I do not think it will, but then again that is why they play the games. Jackson even admitted that he made the mistake the other night against Indiana. I will not put any money on the Lakers with play like this. If everyone is worried about getting hurt, why evenplay the game.
 
Sure you didn't bet it.  Why else would you be so upset you'd want the coach fired for winning a game by 13 as opposed to 14+?  Anyone who lays DD in the NBA should have their head examined.

BY the looks of this thread someone got mad cause he lost alot of money on the Lakers.  This isn't college where they look to blow people out by as much as they can to get ranked better.  This is pro.  All that matters is wins and losses and the championship.  If you can't take the loss don't bet.  Thats what betting is.  It would have been no different then sticking your money in a slot machine.

And by the way.  You see this becoming a trend so why are you taking them.  You know that if they're blowing someone out that the bench might not be able to hold that lead.  So don't take them to cover.  Don't take the game at all.  If you can't handle the loss don't take the high spread.

Especially when its a garbage team like Milwaukee thats probably going to leave there starters in against the bench players even if they are getting blown out.

You knew it would happen. So your saying you handicapped the game for them to be up 20, and then put the starters on the bench? And let me guess. You still bet the Lakers.

I just wasted 2 minutes of my life here. Anyone who would bet the Lakers -13.5, and then call for the firing of the best coach in the NBA, should just QUIT BETTING SPORTS.

You act like this is something new.

Why wouldn't a coach see what his bench is made of down the stretch and rest his starters?

what an idiot of a thread, and you deserve all the crap you are getting.
 
If you know the trends been leaning, why bet the lakers. Second, what, you think Phil Jackson should leave all the starters in in a blowout, risk injury, so you can win your whopping 100! Cmon guy

I agree. they should fire a guy who has won a million championships, and has a team at 17-2. How dare he not cover the spread in order to help you. I don't understand it. IDIOT!!!!
 
If you know he does this, why wouldn't you bet against the Lakers? I'm no genius, but just a suggestion. I am going to guess they won't fire him, so i'm trying to find an alternative plan for you.

If the lakers are up by dd at half then bet against them 2nd half, if they losing at the half take them 2nd half.

 The lakers have 2 teams on their roster

My method has only asked me to make a play on one Lakers game: 11/23/08 SAC @ LAL, Lakers favored by 17.0 points ... and it told me to bet on SAC +17.0 ... and the Lakers won the game by 10.0.
 
I guess it knows to stay away from the Lakers!
