This is a 10* EXPRESS on the LA Lakers.
We don't subscribe to any single handicapping methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account numerous different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. One set of criteria which we always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics.
This particular play is based primarily on strong/relevant ATS statistics and common sense:
As note that the Lakers are already 3-1 ATS this year against good offenses which score 106-plus points per contest, while the Traiblazers are just 16-18 ATS in their last 34 when playing on back-to-back days and only 15-17 ATS in its last 32 following a divisional contest.
The bottom line: The Lakers come in off a big win at home against the surging Pistons and will look to keep the momentum rolling here, before a tough game at home against the high-flying Nets toorrow night. The Blazers have lost two straight, including a disheartening ten point OT loss in Utah just last night. Grab the points, play on LA.
