10* PLAY-IN TOP PLAY (+$12K HOOPS RUN YTD) GS/LA!
(NBA) Golden State vs. LA Lakers,
Point Spread: -5.00 | -110.00 LA Lakers (Home)
Result: Loss
This is a 10* PLAY-IN TOP PLAY on the Lakers.

LeBron James and Anthony Davis are near 100% healthy as we head into this "play in" contest and I expec them, and the rest of the defending champs, to play with a sense of urgency and to shut down Stephen Curry and the Warriors.

Golden State has done much better than most expected it would without Klay Thompson in the line-up this year, led by league leading scorer Curry, but with the Lakers tough perimeter defensive play, I think he'll struggle to find open shots tonight.

The Lakers big men are a huge issue here for Golden State as well. Too much experience and depth on this LA side now that everyone is healthy.

I'm laying the points and expecting a blowout.

Good luck, NP
