Other potentially interesting odds to make the playoffs:

Bulls +650 to snag at least an 8th seed in the Eastern Conference. Hoiberg has to make the playoffs or he's done after this season, guessing.

Memphis +600 to make it, if Memphis is and stays healthy

Mavericks +600 to make playoffs, Cuban pretty much admitted the Mavs were tanking last season, so wouldn't be surprised if they make a huge leap in wins this season.

Figure Blake Griffin's good for missing at least 1/3rd of the season due to injuries; but the Pistons are basically even odds to make (-160) or miss (+140) playoffs, so no value there. Except it opens up a spot for the Bulls to sneak in.

If you want to triple or quadruple your money, Lakers are +375 to miss the playoffs at online sports books. Maybe parlay that with the Clippers to make the playoffs at +550. Cuz if the Lakers miss it's likely because the Clippers made it. You'd win about $3000 on a $100 parlay wager combining the Lakers to miss @+375 with the Clippers to make it @ +550.


Have to rethink the Clippers. Forgot that Deandre is gone. Thats a big loss.

Still comfortable with the Lakers missing however. This is easy money. Book it!

Think i got this one in the bag 312. This one is easy pickings.


This team has major holes not the least of which is going to be outside shooting. They also are going to be one of the worst defensive teams in the league.

Lebron is playing for 2019 if he is playing for anything at this stage.

Possibly the best call that i have seen you make Douche. You won't regret this one. Whenever i call Book it! its as smooth as a Larry Bird bankshot. I smell money on this one. They say you can never bet against Lebron but this ain't the East. That roster stinks.

Since LTG ignored me because I'm black I'm willing wager that the Lakers make the playoffs. Cash or avatar wagers.

If Lebron takes the Lakers to the playoffs, is he the greatest player of all time?

For as great as LeBron is he's never made a player around him better. He's essentially a more talented Jimmy Butler.

Just heard Webber say that making the playoffs will be a tremendous feat for the Lakers. Obviously I agree.

There isn't one. Too many variables. He plays on a losing team meaning that he is simply going to pile up meaningless stats. Doesn't mean he is better. Lot of blowout games where he is simply chucking.

Fultz is on a contending team (bet you hate that). He also plays with 2 All NBA caliber players (bet you hate that too). He isn't going to put up big numbers and you are going to have a hard time deciphering the better guy as your "eyetest" stinks.

I like definitive bets and since you are a Lebron lover i figured you'd be all over this one. This is as close to a sucker bet as I am going to provide. You didn't want so oh well.

I do seem to remember you championing Lebron the Supreme difference maker thing last year however. Now you are singing a different beat.

I got this one Zippy and I think FF, Agent, and Nas know it. They have been awfully quiet on this front.

Lakers are an 8 seed currently. Lebron got a nagging groin "he got a groin". They haven't even hit the rough part of their schedule yet.

Jan. 17 is their waterloo. They'd better try and load up a little now. Its going to be rough. They have to eke out about 22 more wins at least and I don't see them doing it. There are 2-3 teams behind them Minne, Utah, and N.O. that can catch them. Not to mention Dallas. They are smoked turkey.

Book It!

After GS, Houston and Utah, lotta questions in the Western Conference.

If Butler ends up traded to the Eastern Conference, that's another open playoff spot in the West. Spurs without Manu, Parker, Kawhi. Westbrook apparently had his 5th knee surgery recently. Westbrook's knee gives out, OKC's out of the playoffs.


Denver will replace Minnesota in the West. Clippers may slide in also. Lebron James played all 82 in a conf that everyone believed was inferior and also had a better roster than what this Lakers squad will trot out. He may not even be all that engaged since he really is trying to get to 19 free agency.

Cleveland won 51 games and it took 47 in order to get the 8th seed. This will be an easy kill. He isn't getting to the playoffs with Journeymen and unproven players. No way.

4 guys that had impact (Randle Lopez IT Clarkson) are all gone. Lonzo Ball :lol: :lol: :lol: That is who we are counting on? Ingram? wasn't it just last year that most people on here were listening to that Idiot Shakes as he pontificated about how everyone on the team except Lonzo were bums? I sure didn't hear a lot of dissenting opinions as he posted stupid comment after stupid comment. Now they are much more "talented" than Cleveland and it isn't even close. Ok.

LTG pretty much has it sewn up. Well done. We know free agent and FF will pay out. The only question is - will Nas return so that his bet has value?

A couple of the earlier posts stand out.

Looked a little rough early when they were in 4th place. The schedule to that point was probably the easiest in the league. Had to keep the faith that they were going to fold down the stretch.
