NBA - Lakers @ Celtics
(NBA) LA Lakers vs. Boston, 01/28/2023 8:30 PM, Score: 121 - 125
Total: 235.50 | -106.00 Over
Result: Win
LeBron James is questionable to play, AD is probable to play through this ankle injury suffered in the last matchup, and Boston are fully healthy in this game, providing the viewers with an outstanding showdown of an historical rivalry. I think the Celtics win, and I thought they would cover, but hearing the Lakers being at full strength for this game just tells me to take the over, as both teams have been scoring well and the Lakers have not been playing defense. AD will be able to help on the defensive end as well as Hachimura, but the pace that Boston plays at home will surely take us to the over. Boston are 4-3 to the over of 235 in the last 7 games and play much better against stronger opponents like the Lakers, putting up high scoring totals. Lakers should be forced to shoot more shots as well from long range as LeBron has been doing lately in order to keep up with a team like Boston.

Official Play: Over 235.5

Side Bet: Westbrook over 5.5 Assists
