NBA Betting: Lakers are overly-reliant on Bryant

The Los Angeles Lakers have sat atop the Western Conference for several months now. But they’ve had some narrow escapes and Nick Shiambouros believes their luck may not last until the end of the season. “This week, the Lakers travel East for games against Miami, Charlotte and Orlando. On current form, I can see them losing at least two of these games.” The Los Angeles Lakers top the Western Conference, 5.5 games ahead of their nearest pursuer and many people believe they will finish the season with the best record in the West. But I’m not sure that is the case, after a couple of recent losses and some indifferent play. Since the All-Star break, the Lakers’ record is 4-2 but that does not tell the whole story.

Some people think he’s not ideally suited by the mud but they must be forgetting his wide-margin success in the Adonis on this card three years ago. 1.30 – A tight-looking handicap on the ratings but it’s not necessarily the well-treated ones that we’re after today
