Geoff Clark writes, “Slightly ‘LEAN’ LAKERS (+180) by a quarter drive because I like the songs to the max and I think he’s helping SF LeBron James in the playoffs with his back against him. Wall. LeBron has never been eliminated in the first round of the playoffs and has been dominant in that series. According to CleaningTheGlass. com, the Lakers score a more consistent 37 points with a hundred possessions and have a 1. 5. 2% increase consistent with effective purpose consistent with a percentage. with LeBron on the floor. a forged possibility that the Lakers are counting on LeBron to stay strong and succeed in just about 40 minutes of action while AD recovers for Game five or has some kind of minute restriction. great substitutes Marc Gasol and Montrezl Harrell. They both have an offensive score of 129 or more consistent with and a consistent real shot with a consistent 83% or more percentage on the streak. I’m hopeful that Gasol and Harrell can fight with injured AD and, in a must-see scenario, with LeBron knowing if he wants to bring LA, I make “SPRINKLING” a small bet on LAKERS (+180). “
Writes Jason Logan: “In addition to a rejuvenated Paul, the absence, if not limitation, of the Davis defense opens up space for Phoenix big man Deandre Ayton, who has pushed the interior of Los Angeles aside as a child. opening a PS5 on Christmas Morning, averaging almost 20 things and 13. 5 rebounds in the NBA Playoffs. Ayton scored only 14 things on 6 of 8 shots in Game 4, but 10 of them are happening in the middle of the moment, since Los Angeles struggled to engage the 6-to-11-foot center with forward defensive characteristics in Marc Gasol and Andre Drummond. Even the mighty LeBron James was outscored under the basket. Speaking of LeBron. Array, he’s the only dominant thing that can keep them from Lakers fall into the series. That said, he’s not betting on his usual spot since he returned from an ankle injury at the end of the season and the tax from last year’s championship race, and the brutal turnaround. course of 2020-21 condensed crusade, start showing cracks in his Hall of Fame. James’ game has been much more competitive the last two games after settling for consistent low-efficiency jumps in early playoff outings, yet his 3-point shots are spotty (2 of 12 in the last two games) and his turnover problems are a problem. , he coughing up the ball an average of five times in this series after scoring less than 4 consistent with the game in the normal season. An official announcement on Davis could be closer to Tuesday’s announcement, so if he likes the Suns in Game 5, bet now and move along the line for compatibility and audience reaction if AD is excluded. Even minor groin injuries are almost less likely to succeed without compromising some facet of his game. “

Jordan Ramsay writes, “The Lakers failed to reach the Over as visitors in Game 1 or Game 2, however, it is valuable to note that they surpassed the mark in 11 of their last 25 games in Phoenix. They are now 13-6 in a row in their last 19 games against the Suns. Although lately they have 148 underdogs to win this series, LA still has the second most productive chance of winning the Western Conference with 225. The protective champions also have the third most productive chance of winning this series by winning this year’s championship in the 500. Ironically, their Western Conference and NBA Championship ratings are higher than Phoenix’s. “
