San Antonio Under (196) for 2 Units
Spurs/Lakers 9:05: This series has gone "under" in 7 of the last 10 matchups and should be more of a grind it out game tonight. The Lakers' offense is clicking and hard to stop with all the options available, especially on their home floor where they've averaged a consistent 111 ppg. But Los Angeles is 1-4 O/U after three or more 'overs', and 15-22 O/U after allowing 105+. The Spurs, on the other hand, are 6-16 O/U after three straight 'unders' and 18-28 O/U on the road. This series has kept a tight range between 199 and 191 in four games this season; tonight, with the defensive intensity heightened, we'll look for a game in the lower end of the continuum. "Under" the call.
Los Angeles (-7') for 2 Units
Spurs/Lakers 9:05: This will be a difficult challenge for the Spurs considering that they have a short turnover from an emotional Game 7 victory, and had to deal with flight problems from New Orleans. Sure, they're the incumbent champs and a veteran group that just overcame an 0-2 deficit to advance, but this may be too much
of an uphill battle. The Lakers are 9-2 ATS off an upset win and 7-2 ATS with extended rest. Los Angeles is playing extremely well and should deliver here.
