Major
(NBA) LA Lakers vs. New Orleans,
Point Spread: 9.50 | -110.00 LA Lakers (Away)
Result: Loss
The Ewing Theory, which says once a team loses their overrated star, they become a good betting value in many circumstances, applies here as the Lakers rid of grossly overrated Dwight Howard. They are 4-2 already. They have more young legs than many realize and will not be destroyed by back-to-back as New Orleans is also playing three games in four days.
