Struggling Lakers Seek Redemption After Break

The Los Angeles Lakers have struggled of late, at least in comparison to the lofty expectations fans and NBA bettors had of them prior to the season. As reigning back-to-back champions, the bar has been set reasonably high.

According to Bodog's online sportsbook, they have 4/1 Odds odds of winning the NBA championship despite their recent slide.

In the 10 games leading up to last Sunday's All-Star break, the Lakers had gone 5-5 - including losses in their last three consecutive games. This week the club will look to bounce back and reclaim superiority atop the Western Conference. Will there be enough time?

It won't be easy, but Kobe Bryant's recent All-Star Game MVP might just give them the necessary boost to get over the hump. They'll have their first true test next Sunday when they visit Oklahoma City to do battle with Kevin Durant and the Thunder.

Bet on the NBA with Bodog and choose sides in Lakers vs. Thunder.

Will Durant continue to lead his young squad to what appears to be home court advantage in the Western Conference? They'll have their work cut out for them hanging onto a top seed in a tough bracket, but a big win over the Lakers could go a long way in helping them preserve their current fourth-place position.

The Thunder have been steadily improving their NBA forecast for the past three seasons.

Currently third in the West, the Lakers are in a position where anything less than a No. 1 seed will be considered a disappointment. You can imagine how that makes captain Bryant feel.

Both teams have their share of incentive to come away with the nationally-televised W this Sunday, so as far as NBA betting is concerned, it might come down to which team can take the necessary steps to prepare for the big match.

We've seen the Lakers take must-win games countless times before, but we've also learned not to underestimate 22-year-old Durant and the Thunder.
