Portland is 4-1 UNDER the total against a team with a losing record, plus 9-4 UNDER against the NBA Pacific Division. The Blazers have some depth concerns as backup forward Dorell Wright suffered a fractured bone in his left hand in Wednesday's loss to the Clippers and is out the rest of the regular season. They will be less likely to run and instead lean on their great defense against a terrible Lakers offense. LA is #17 in the NBA points scored, and #20 in assists. The Lakers are 5-2 UNDER the total at home and 12-5-2 UNDER vs. the Western Conference. They just scored 92 points at home in a loss to the Pelicans, shooting 62% from the free throw line. A strong Portland defense is in town - #10 in the NBA in points allowed and #9 in field goal shooting defense. And when these rivals clash the UNDER is 4-1. Play this one UNDER the total.
