I agree that Orlando should probably win this game tonight; however don't be fooled into thinking that it matters whether or not they win it on the road or at home, after last year the Lakers want this thing bad and they will try to get it anywhere they can, as much as some people want to believe that this has already been pre-arranged it hasn't if Orlando does win tonight and it goes back to LA alot can happen, Orlando is a pretty good road team and they have proven they can beat anyone. The final score dictates the outcome of the game and LA is up 3-1 but you know as well as I that this series could easily be tied or perhaps Orlando might even be up by a game. Do you think LA does not know that or they are unaware of that? Its being drilled into thier heads over and over by Phil Jackson, he has not gotten to where he is by not being a great motivator, I am leaning Orlando for tonight but it is because of what I stated that I haven't been able to pull the trigger on them. Don't kid yourself LA wants this bad and aside from the 1 blow out anyone of those other games were equally played and could have gone either way. Good Luck on your selection tonight!

Seriously, is that your reason for playing Orlando? Good luck with that one!
Exactly.
When you have a chance to close out a championship a team doesn't care where the game is, California, Florida or Jupiter.
Why would L.A. dump a game and jeopardize a ring, just for a chance to win aformentioned ring at home?

I actually think the Lakers have more motivation for trying to close this thing out. Add that to Orlando being completely spent trying to compete with the Lakers and being deflated after playing the Lakers to overtime twice and losing both times.

Lakers close it out tonight. 3 points is a gift.

I like the Lakers, as I think if the game starts to get away from Orlando there is always the chance they fold (either due to the pressure or due to the feeling of losing inevitability). Not my sole reason for taking LA, but it is part of my reasoning.

Also works the other way: Game starts to get away from the Lakers there is a chance they fold due to being up 3-1. Lakers might say "We'll get them in LA, fuck this game were down 12."

Orlando to win by 20. Laker starters will be on bench in the middle of the 4th quarter when the game is out of hand. Jackson will want to rest the starters for the home game. Officials want to earn another days pay for game 6. This is the only thing that makes sense to me after watching that 4th quarter. The ref's want another pay day and are pissed because they did everything they could for Orlando and they still lost

Orlando did not win by 20.
Lakers won by 13.
Laker starters were on the floor almost to the end of the fourth.
Jackson did not rest anyone for the next home game.
There will be no next home game.
Officials let the players play, (like they should)
43 fouls were called, 23-20 Orlando's favor. Pretty fair distribution if you ask me.
Refs will not see another pay day.

Have a good night, and thanks for playing.
