    Definately go over. It looks like an easy win. Then again it was set at 41 last year and I thought that would be an easy win also.

    I looked it up on the Vegas Insider website....the odds at the different casios are usually within a game os so of each other.

    The Imperial Palace generally has slightly better odds.

    BTW I also got the Rockets to win the championship at 100 to 1 odds (i know I am dreaming!!)

    I only had the guts to go $50 to win it all. I figure $5,000 will make it worth my while to go to Vegas to collect.

    On topic -

    From NJRockets post, it looks like they have the Clipps, Sonics and Rockets battling for playoff spots 7 and 8.

    Tier 1:
    Sac 57 1/2
    Lakers 57 1/2
    MAvs 56 1/2
    Spurs 55 1/2

    Tier 2:
    Port 49
    Minny 46

    The rumble:
    Clipps 42 1/2
    Sonics 41 1/2
    Rox 41
    Jazz 38 1/2

    Lotto bound:
    Phoe 36
    Mem 29 1/2
    G St 27
    Nugz 17


    Off-topic -
    I hate the Jazz as much as anybody here, but I just don't see how a collection of disgruntled talent (Clipps) ranks above a team (the Spazz).

    The Rox and Suns are going to do better than that.

    Hmm, sign me up...wish I lived in Vegas. I bet that the Lakers will win less than their number...but I don't think it's as sure of a bet as the Rockets winning more than theirs.

    What does it pay if you win the over or under?
