The Los Angeles Lakers have had problems scoring points this season and have reached the century mark in just 3-of-22 games overall, and none vs. a team with a winning percentage greater than .550. The good news is that this team has defended extremely well with just one team scoring more than 102 points against them all season. The Lakers have played against 15 teams with winning records on the season, and those 15 games have averaged just 182.6 total points scored, with just 2 of the 15 reaching this total, which includes a pair of games vs. the Nuggets this season that never got out of the 180s. Denver has some deceptive scoring numbers, recently powered by overtime in three of their last seven games that have added 72 more points to the scoring totals. This series has seen the UNDER cash in 19 of the last 26 meetings, and the Lakers are 18-5 to the UNDER in their last 23 vs. a winning team. Play this one UNDER the total.
