Look for this game to revert to the low-scoring defensive battle of Game 2 as Los Angeles has no choice but to come out with more physical play being down 3-1 in the series. Minnesota has gone UNDER seven of 10 overall and five of six on the road. Eight of the past 10 meetings at Los Angeles have gone UNDER. The Lakers have gone UNDER four straight playoff games as favorites dating to last season. Neither team shot well in Game 4 as the Lakers shot 45.0 percent compared to 42.2 percent for the Timberwolves. The Lakers missed 28-of-47 3-point tries and the Timberwolves missed 22-of-36 from beyond the arc. It'll get even tougher in a potential elimination game for the Lakers. Take the first-half and the full game to go UNDER.
