NBA Playoffs Monday

NBA Playoffs Monday [B]731 Lakers +3.5[/B] I'm convinced at this price that the Lakers are worth a full unit. Phil Jackson and Kobe Bryant have an uncanny knack of winning the close games. Utah is having a very difficult time with any big man the Lakers put in. Fisher is hitting 3's like Larry Bird and now that Phoenix is in the West Final, (but a little banged up) the Lakers would not want to give them any extra rest. Take the points.
At the end of the 1st Qtr, when once again the Jazz had zero effort to play defense, it was easy to see how this one would end. Nice call. Easy like Sunday morning.
Nice Commodores reference. Nice call Alf as I rode it, and wouldn't have without you. Also congrats on nailing that Suns/Spurs series as I was very impressed with the suns. Curious to hear your thoughts down the road on Lake Show/Suns. IMHO the rest has gotta to be a huge plus for the Lakers. I will be really curious to see how this Lopez kid plays, and I am sure he will, cause they are going to need some low post pressence or shoot 50% from 3-point range. It sure looks like Kobe of years past all of the sudden. Thanks again Alf!
Thanks Ron and the Dude! Yes, agree, Lakers/Kobe to go forward, especially with Bynum back in the lineup, but not going to play -300 series price, we'll look for bad lines or zig zag or key defensive matchups that will exploit possible wagers.

Hi Alf, Played a fair bit of money earlier on the Lakers to win conference at -190 and -140. Would you hedge any of this?? Thanks.
To win just the Western Conference, I wouldn't hedge, if it were a 5 game series, maybe, but not seven and home court advantage.
