It's still strange to call the Warriors the worst team in the West, but here we are. Best against worst. Of course the public wants only one side of this game. We will go contrarian and take the double-digit points. This season, double-digit road favorites are just 9-14 ATS. And, LA is without LeBron in this one. The Lakers are a great team, but the reality is they give up 110 points per game on the road. And, Golden State can score. How can LA get up for this game against this Warriors team? How motivated are they going to be? Dating back to last season, LA is 9-23 ATS vs. bad teams that get outscored by 3+ points per game. Meanwhile, Steve Kerr is 85-60 ATS revenging a loss. Take the Warriors for a Max Play.
