Well, in a perfect world one would like to think Orlando could pull this one off then it goes back to Staples Center so Jack can watch the Lakers finish the Magic in their house, in front of their fans..... I can hear jack now on the sideline   "YOU CAN'T HAAANDLE THE LAKERS, NAWT IN ARH HOUSE." Or does Kobe and Kompany want to embarass the Magic and put the to sleep in Orlando in front of Magic fans? Tough call. But either way, I don't believe the Magic have the Magic it will take to win the series. They had their chance and blew it.
 
My (large) wager on this game will be LAKERS to score OVER 97.5 for the game (easily) and the rest of my wagers will be live. GL
 
My Prediction? Well, if I must....
 
MAGIC 103
Lakers   99

Just cant bet against the best player in the game. If it doesn't hit tonight I can always think about doubling down in LA LA Land if the spread isn't ridiculous -- LAL +3

Does anyone think the under is a good play.  With 3 of the 4 games  playing in the 170's in regulations.  2 went to 190's cause of ot.  The other game was 212 but the Magic broke records for half anf game for finals to do that.  Im thinking under but would like to see what others input is on this?

Boss,
 
As I posted earlier on....Lakers and the Under (tease). Hardly ever tease but lakers +7.5 under 202.5. I will also take the Under st up.
 
Must win for Orlando and they will have no answer for the Laker D.
Lakers will set the tempo with hard D resulting in the under. Hell, these two teams can only score 200 with OT.

HA HA I hear ya though right now I'd still take Kobe not just because the experience and I know LeBron hasn't had as much around him, but from what I remember here lately when they have faced off Kobe has still gotten off. I know what ya saying though but LeBron will be the best in a few years when he gets a piece or 2 and Kobe starts skiing down the backside of his career.

Talk about hard to figure this game out. The one thing I think the line has done a great job at suckering us all into thinking is OVER. The last time they dropped it to 198.5 they had the highest total in game history. But I'm convinced that Van Gundy is going to keep that little point guard in which so far has been the biggest mistake in Finals history that I've ever seen in my 29 years. Alston got them there, but take a seat when it's all on the line, oh we're down 3-1? Oh we didn't foul Fisher and win the game, or Kobe, or any of the other 3 guys who touched the ball on their way to the other side of the court? Who's idea was that? I mean not even 1 player made the attack even if the coach didn't call it.
 
And this is coming from a guy who had Lakers M/L last game and called it all over at the 2 minutes-to-go mark when Lakers can again give up the lead.
 
Phil has proven he will win finals and series on the road. Penguins did it at Detroit, don't be disillusioned about winning when the finals are on the line, no one cares about home or road, and Kobe smells what the Rock is cookin, the championship Rock that is.
 
My gut feeling says that the line is slighly increased because, just like Games 3 and 4, people 'THINK' Orlando "needs a win". This is finals, every game is mustwin, and every game has come down to last-minute-heroics with the exception of Game 1.
 
So I 'think' this is the last chance to see Lakers at + money til they come home and are then monster favorites. I can't bet Nfl's house on this call, but I'd like to.
 
Lakers M/L.
 
GL all.

Lakers will play hard and with a purpose "Champions."  Give Orlando credit for getting this far, but the run stops here in Team Disney.  Lakers    Orlando  
 
Lakers by 7
Over 198.5        Poor Orlando

I miss Chasinjasin, Nightridah, CMJohnson. Haven't seen to many of their post. rekamyenom, W8LIFTER, kongkiller, and wangichu I've seen. But not like last year. I made a fortune following these guys. This years threads have been this guy ripping this guy... I'm fading this guy cause I don't like what you said about so and so. Nothing constructive. The more someone bragged about how much they know, the more stupid they looked after the game. Maybe next year we'll turn it around. Less bickering.  This game I like Lakers TT over 97, Taking the over. Small play on the magic cause the Lakers wanna win it at home... GL to all...

I took the Lake Show on Thursday moneyline. I think the safest bet will be a proposition. Alston over 11 points for the game. Jameer Nelson experiment hasnt worked so far.

LA fakers in a blowout.

they're pissed at the REFS & they're pissed at the media not giving them any credit for their last win.

DID YOu SEE fisher laughing at the ref after he hit his last two 3 pointers?

The officials are paid to make it go to at least 6 games. Too much revenue would be lost if they didn't.

.....Then you should easily be able to make it down to the seats behind home plate, since everyone else will be either at Staples Center, or watching the Lakers / Magic on T.V.!!!!!!!!!

Tiger..I enjoy reading most of your posts as there seems to be nice research and understanding. Can you turn me on to the book or service that gave you LA +200 after they lost the first one to Orlando?

It was -500 in most places...

Best of seven (2-3-2) LA Lakers lead series 2-1
+350  
-500  

 




Hey GTL.

I can't remember exactly when I got that price but it was at some point earlier in the playoffs after they lost either to Houston in Game One, or Denver in game 2 of that series.  But I got it at good ol' sportsbook.com.

Good luck today

Alls I know is that Manny was on Roids when the Red Sox Nation thought their beloved team won a Championship in their lifetime cleanly and untainted with Roids.  Same with their pennent in 07.  Dirty needle dripping Roids from Manny to help him hit tainted home runs for the Red Sox to finally say they actually won some thing.

Orlando by double digits tonight.  Lakers could easily be and probably should be down 3-1 in the series but they've found some good fortune, just like the Western Finals against Denver.  Orlando big tonight......lay the wood and mark it.
