We'll try to keep rolling with B-Ball.

Suns at Lakers
Did you see Lakers pull one out in Denver? Or should I say Koby pulling it out.
With Anthony and Camby out on foul and with all the turnovers, something like 19 leading to 22 Denver fast break points and lost in the paint, I think the Nuggets blew this Home Opener.
Now Lakers go home to meet the rested Suns at home. You know the Suns have a shorter travel than Lakers returning from Denver. Regardless of non game factors Suns will give Lakers trouble tomorrow, especially if they handle the ball like they did against the Nuggets. Suns still play best in transition and I see them gunning out of the gate at Staples Center.

PHO +4 at -116 for 3 units (W) *damn, the lines moved to +3.5 as I write.

PHO ML +148 for 1 unit (W) *This is now +135

The way Joel Meyers (play-by-play) and Mychal Thompson (color analyst) was going on and on about Lakers on the pre-game show you think these guys are touts....Amare's loss is a big blow, JJ leaving caught the team off guard,
Nash can't carry the team, Than, Smush is super, Brown has talent, Koby's hot, Lamar will come back....
These guys are announcers not handicappers. Beware of getting suckered into these pre-game shows they always favor the home team.
Now they're going to talk about how great Koby, Lamar and Smush played in the losing cause. If you can't contain Suns scoring you're playing Suns game. I should of noted Lakers on back to back game was a solid fade last year and that trend may continue.
2-0 +4.48 units *Perfect for two days.
