This spread is solely dependent on whether LeBron plays or not, and with him being currently questionable I'm avoiding the spread and taking the over. Lakers are 4-1 to the over in the last 5 while Rockets are 5-1 in the last 6 to the over. Rockets have never been know for defense but have been seen as a slower paced offensive team, however the Lakers now have a more elite shooting team that can put a ton of points on the board if they get hot, and they've averaged 119 the last 4 road games with 2 of those being without LeBron. Rockets just lost to Detroit and gave up 121 but only losing by 6. So given the situation with LeBron, the rockets could cover the spread, but I'm going with points in this Matchup with 4 of the last 5 meetings between the two going way over this total.
