Fad: Lakers
If you are a Lakers fan, you are a tool. If you are Lakers fan that does not live in LA, you are a mega tool.
While most basketball players are able to pickup women fairly easily, no basketball player is more able to get fellated than Kobe Bryant. Not by women so much as most American men that worship the ground he walks on. It’s pathetic.
Yes, the Lakers are the best team in the Western Conference and probably the best team in the league. But there are about a dozen solid teams in the NBA that have a chance at winning the championship. If you are all about the Kobe/Lakers bandwagon, you have no imagination and are just another fish.
How To Fade: Bet against the Lakers. At this point in time, you can get +130 or so against them winning the West. While they may be the best team in the West, the bookies are setting the line that the lakers have a 55% chance to win the West, which means they need to have an 82% chance or better of winning each of the three playoff series. No playoff series in the West will be a cakewalk, so this is a fad that is worth fading.
