I liked the way the Lakers played the 2nd half yesterday-- scoring 63 points against Houston. And while the angle would say the Lakers can't play two games well back to back and that they may be tired tonight, I'll take the
Lakers -2
Atlanta is 7-18 at home and 15-31 ATS. Tyronn Lue is hurt and may not play. The Hawks are not very good.
The question is whether or not the Lakers show up tonight and whether the heart they showed yesterday was stagged just for the TV audience... well, I'll gamble that they found something yesterday. They really clicked in the 2nd half. For awhile, they just tossed Odom the ball and got out of the way. I loved the way they attacked the basket. My hunch is this team is playing well and will simply out score the Hawks.
27-13 record.
