PostPosted: Fri Sep 18, 2015 10:21 am    Post subject: 3rd Annual Bet The Lakers LG Fundraiser! (Total OWED on Page 2!!!)

Yes, it is that time again folks! This year, I have decided to give people the option to bet a set over and under, OR, if you feel really smart, to pick your own win total! Additionally, we have some smaller bets about player stats. Feel free to bet none, any, or all. All funds raised go to support LG. Enjoy!

1. Wins by the Lakers this season. You have two choices. You can pick your own number (and pay $2 per game you are off by in either direction), or bet a straight $10 dollars on over or under of 34 wins. If the exact number is hit, all over/under bettors pay 5 bucks.


The next section are $3 over/under bets. Simply indicate the number and over or under. A "push" (number hit exactly) costs each bettor $2. (all numbers rounded to the nearest tenth)

2. D'Angelo Russell Assists Per Game, 5.6

3. Julius Randle Points Per Game, 12.2.

4. Roy Hibbert COMBINED Rebounds and Blocks Per Game, 10.2

5. Kobe Bryant Games Played, 62

6. Lou Williams Points Per Game, 13

7. Jordan Clarkson COMBINED Points and Assists Per Game, 19.5

8. Nick Young Points Per Game, 11

9. Tarik Black Rebounds Per Game, 4.8

10. Brandon Bass Minutes Per Game, 22.4

Bonus Section about the roster. $1 dollar for each player listed who you incorrectly pick to make the roster, or omit from your list and makes the roster.

11. Of the following players, which of them make the opening night roster?, Holmes, Frazier, Jabari Brown, Upshaw, Sacre, Kelly.


Have fun folks! All bets are closed the night before the season starts at midnight, except number 11, which closes at midnight after the first Preseason game.

I'll bet the over on wins (betting a straight $10).

I'll come back later for player bets.

Now you're making me conflicted. It is generous and appreciated that you would up the ante to 25 bucks, but at the same time, I hope you don't have to pay up.

No bet but will donate when the time comes.

If I may make a guess, I'd say they will win 42 games.

I cannot see this team doubling the win total from last season. I'll be happy with 30-35 wins.

Just curious 24, there is no payoff for guessing correctly, right? There is only a loss for guessing incorrectly?

Correct, it is a fundraiser. If we paid off, we would be violating gambling laws as well.

No, it is win win. Either you pay a lot or we are all too happy to care that you don't.

I've got to hand to the Mods and 24 in particular (who should invest in batteries by the bulk for his calculator in keeping track of this) for doing this. This makes the season far more interesting and allows all of us loud mouths (though we use our fingers) to put our money where are mouths are.

All that, yet I have no picks yet. They will be forthcoming.
