Arena: Staples Center
Home Floor: Los Angeles Lakers
The trust levels surrounding the Lakers are limited and that’s putting it politely. They are hovering in 8th spot in the Western Conference with a 12-12 record and even with LeBron James back in the line-up, have won only 3 of their last 7. One of those defeats came at the hands of the Celtics 130-108. The Lakers have covered the spread in just 5 of their last 21 attempts as a home favourite and only 1 of their last 9 against teams with a winning record. In contrast, the Celtics are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 as an underdog and 8-2 ATS in their last 10 road games. They are also seeking a 7th consecutive cover against the Lakers and the Staples Center faithful will not do enough to stop them. Not only with the Celtics cover, they will win outright.
- Tip: Celtics WIN
