Result:
LOSS

The Los Angeles Lakers have wrapped up the #1 seed in the West, and it sure looked like it with their lackluster effort vs. Houston the last time on the floor. They played without LeBron James (groin), and he is still listed as day-to-day. I don't see him playing here as the Lakers have no reason to risk further injury. Los Angeles scored just 97 points in their game against Houston and seemed more interested in shortening the game than winning. Indiana is off a loss to Phoenix, their first in the bubble, and still have a reason to be playing hard unlike the Lakers. I just don't see an up and down game as the Lakers seem to be playing to wind down the clock and come out injury-free. Make the play on the UNDER.
