It's brought a lot of bad luck through the years of him wearing it. 2008 Finals, everything about the horrible 2013 season, Kobe and Nash injured again in 2014 and now Steve, Nick and Julius' injuries.

lakers start the season as 150 to 1 odds to win championship. While Hou is (by vegas standards) closer to NBA championship than this lakers squad - the real season begins tues and the truth will be revealed on the court.

102 - 99
