Game 7! You guys don't think these teams know each other yet? Granted it's in LA but 12.5-13.5? Come on. Too many points here, lads.I know Yao's out. I like Houston to keep it close. Give me the points.
 
LA 97   Hou 93
 
Houston +12.5

NBA will make sure that the Lakers make the finals.  Lakers, ML is a... well, you know.  Unfortunately, can't find anyone offering a ML when the spread is 13 points (and if I did, the price would be too steep).
 
Thoght maybe Vegas was setting up a trap (like the game 6 Celtics/Magic), but the money is going about 50/50, so Vegas is happy either way.
 
Game 7s tend to go under, especially after the first round, so I guess the only play left is...
 
UNDER
Actually, to play it safe, under 1st half,
if it doesn't hit, chase under 2nd half

Sergeant Hulka is not always going to be there to be that big toe...

I just hate the rapist Kobe so I am glad to get a lot of points here.  A loss today will continue to tarnish his lack luster career given his talent.

HOUSTON +13

Realized what the NBA was the year the Kobe/Shaq won their first title.  Game seven, conference finals.  Lakers down by 15 at halftime.  Sabonis is schooling Shaq.  NBA is looking at an Indiana/Portland finals. 

2nd half starts and BOOM-BOOM-BOOM, three ticky-tack fouls on Sabonis, giving him five.  He sits most of the third quarter, comes back at the biginning of the fourth.  He isn't in 30 seconds and gets called for breathing on Shaq.  Lakers come back and win.  NBA gets Shaq and Kobe in the finals. 

They haven't stopped since.  Think Lakers vs Celtics last year wasn't planned?  Book it: this year is either Lakers-Celtics or Kobe-LeBron.

No you misunderstand me.  I don't care if the NBA cheats.  As long as I'm on the right side.  (and no, I didn't have money on the Blazers, wasn't even wagering yet).  Jusr making a point.

***Prime example of what's wrong with the hoops forum right now.  Try not to be such a douchebag and contribute something to handicapping the games***


There, now how do you like it!?!?!? - HA!!!!!!

Now, I shall contribute something and try not to be a douchebag - it's gonna be tough, but here goes.....


     I don't give a flying "F" how many women Kobe rapes - what does his moral character have to do with playing basketball? If anybody in this thread is taking the battered, bruised, and injured Rockets and getting less than 20 points, you need to stop betting on sports right now and get a new hobby. Much like the last Laker home game, this won't even be close. I think the Lakers wanted to bring it back home to win game 7 in dramatic fashion - plus look at all the extra revenue dollars they're going to get for this extra game.

     Thank you for allowing me to make my points - now I'll probably be back in here at about 3:00 PST to eat some humble pie after the Rockets take game 7 in overtime!!!!!!!!!!! - HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!

Lakers all day baby!   4-1 ats, last 5 gms, after a loss. Plus at home, game 7, with motivation.  I love the rockets but Lakers cover here -12.  Lakers 1st half might seem like a better play too.
 
I got Lakers -12

Still a bit douchey, but much better 

I do think the the home team wins today, just not by 13.  Houston will not roll over for this one.  They fought to get to this point and will fight tooth and nail to finish Goliath off today.  Rockets lose but cover.  Good luck

So you'd consider game 6 a game where the Lakers weren't exploited and dominated?  If you want to say they were just lazy, I'd agree with that, but they did get their asses handed to them.

What makes this game any different than the other Laker home games?!?!?! The fact that the Lakeshow only has to give up 12 right now is a gift horse, so I'm not going to look it in the mouth.....

If that's not light enough or you can't find the humor, lick my ballsack and fuck yourself. 

my goodnes,,such bitterness Francis
