Los Angeles at Indiana

Both of these teams score, which is why we see a sky-high first half total here. It's rare to see a line above 105, nevermind 108.5. It's going to take a ton of scoring, and very little defense, to reach this level. The Lakers actually are a decent defensive team, holding opponents to 42.2% from the field (last five opponents shot only 39.2%). Indiana is a perfect 10-0 UNDER in the first half dating back to last season at home vs. teams that hold opponents to under 43% from the field. The Lakers are 12-3 UNDER in the first half on the road vs. non-conference opponents over that same time span. We'll play the first half to go UNDER this lofty total.
