    Bayless will be a key factor in tonight's win.

    I hope you are right, but I see him having a hard time against the L@ker guards. Also, given Sergio's talk with Nate, I expect to see him come out inspired.

    I'm guessing Sergio gets way more minutes that Bayless--who may see limited or no action unless Blazers are way up, or way down (and Sergio is having a sub-par game).

    Nearly every Laker fan I've talked to complains about their inability to stop slashing guards. I can see Bayless having a big night during his shift in the 2nd half.

    Bold prediction:

    LaMarcus and Lamar Odom will get into it at some point, coming to near blows. And a "Beat LA" chant will start up in the second half.

    Not so bold prediction: "Beat LA" chant will happen before tipoff.

    What a loser. There's like almost literally no chance that can happen.

    Learn the game, then post.

    Whether one believes in quantum mechanics or God, there's a non-zero chance of anything happening. I like high-reward bets. Put a penny down, chance to win...hmm...based on the odds, I'd say a googolplex dollars.

    Hah! Shows what you know. There's not a googolplex dollars in the whole world! You'd bankrupt Vegas, Dubai, Hong Kong and the Sacramento Kings and only come up with something like 1/10th of that.

    This game. Lakers let scrubs have career nights, for some reason.

    Bayless has the quickness to match Farmar, but is bigger and stronger. I like that match-up. He's also much, much quicker than Fisher, but the veteran will flop, and get the call, when Bayless tries to drive to the basket on him.
