1 unit on Los Angeles +6.5 (-105) (risk 1 to return 1.95)
Result:
WIN

The LA lakers have been down for several years now as they have been doing their best to develop some good young talent. They aren't there yet, but have a good chance to make a statement that they are on their way back tonight in Portland. The Lakers can get to .500 with a win, and are off an inspiring 113-93 win vs Detroit their last time out. Portland has had a mediocre 4-4 start to the season, and most of that can be blamed on misfiring on a lot of shots early on. The Trailblazers have shot less than 40% in 4 of their last 5 games, and appear to be in a team slump offensively. Lakers can do one thing well and that is scoring the ball, and shuld be playing with a purpose, and confidence tonight, unlike Portland. Make the play on LA in this one.
