I know ESPN has made mention of this, so far in this series the team that has been ahead at the end of the 1st quarter has ended up winning the game.
1st Quarter Scores
Game 1 - Hou 21 / LA 18
Game 2 - Hou 25 / LA 39
Game 3 - LA 30 / Hou 28
Game 4 - LA 16 / Hou 29
Game 5 - Hou 24 / LA 35
Game 6 - LA 15 / Hou 27
For game 7 the 1st qtr line is LA-4. I think this line presents a solid opportunity to take the Lakers in the 1st quarter and in the event they are losing at the end of the 1st you can hedge out your loss by taking Houston 2nd half (going to assume you'll get Houston around +10 for 2nd half if game is close at halftime). If Lakers are ahead by 1, 2, or 3 at the end of the 1st quarter then I'll take the loss.
I know there are ways in which I can lose both bets, but my philosophy has been that the trend is your friend. I think Lakers come out blazing today, and I don't like laying 13 points, not when some very good cappers on here like the Rockets today.
Lakers 1st Qtr -4, $500 (max play for me)
*If Lakers are losing at end of 1st qtr, I will take Houston 2nd Half.
