WIN

The New Orleans Hornets look to bounce back from a 101-88 loss to the Suns Wednesday,while Phil Jackson's team was busy last game losing to the Spurs 103-96 as 4.5 point underdogs. Understandable - it was the Spurs. The prior game, LA beat the Pistons. The Lakers are 15-7 ATS revenging a road loss this season, and are playing well on offense in their last five games scoring 100.4 ppg. New Orleans, on the other hand, has been struggling on offense, scoring 89.4 ppg in their last five games. It gets worse than that as they are averaging just 37 ppg in the second half of their last five games. The Lakers to win and cover here for three stars.
