- #563 LA LAKERS (-) over Dallas at 7:40 PM EST
Off last night's 16-point road loss to the Thunder, the Lakers will travel to American Airlines Arena and do a number on the Mavericks. Dallas limps into this matchup on a woeful 7-15 SU and ATS run in its last 22 battles and they'll be in trouble here once again.
Even though Los Angeles won the last meeting between these two teams back on February 25th by the final score of 107-99, the Lakers 4-10 SU and 2-10-2 ATS record in the last 14 battles will keep them focused on the task at hand. In addition, as a guest slipping in without steam off a SU and ATS road loss, head coach JJ Redick and his troops have been worth the financial risk inking a solid 33-17-1 ATS mark in their last 51 games including a lucrative 13-2-1 ATS provided they are going into same season revenge. Finally, when fighting a sub .500 foe that hits the hardwood off a SU and ATS blemish, LA owns a powerful 45-16 SU and 38-23 ATS mark including an elite 23-9 SU and 21-11 ATS provided they slip in off a straight up loss.
This is a poor wagering spot for Dallas. As a non-division host arriving off a road war, the Mavericks own a stiff 57-86-5 ATS record provided their opponent arrives off a straight up loss. In this setting fighting a foe that carries a pointspread won/loss percentage of .518 or better, head coach Jason Kidd and his crew fall to a shocking 9-41-3 ATS including a nasty 6-40-3 ATS provided their opponent is running with three days of rest or less. Also, the Mavs have quietly inked a woeful 0-6 SU and 1-5 ATS record in their last six against Pacific Division foes.
Currently resting in the No. 3 slot in the Western Conference standings and with the Clippers just 1.0-game back, the Lakers will make sure they take care of business here. Take Los Angeles. Thanks and best of luck, Tom.
