Phoenix at Los Angeles

Both teams can play great defense with the Lakers No. 2 in points allowed during the regular season and No. 8 in feld goal defense, while the Suns were No. 7 in points surrendered at 109.5 per game. Phoenix failed to hold home court and now heads to Los Angeles with Chris Paul battling a shoulder injury. The Suns are 7-20 ATS off a loss to a division rival. Phoenix led the league in assist/turnover ratio, but was #26 in points in the paint, and that is the Lakers' strength. They had no answer for Anthony Davis in Game 2 as he had 34 points, 10 rebounds, seven assists and three blocks. Los Angeles has home court and is 23-8 ATS when a playoff series is tied. The UNDER is 7-3-1 when these rivals clash, so back the healthy home team in a defensive battle. Play Los Angeles and take this game to stay UNDER the total.
