The Lakers are 0-4 under last 4 games as a home underdog, 1-5-1 under last 7 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600 and 2-6 under last 8 games playing on 1 days rest. The Spurs have tied the Thunder for first place in the Western Conference. Most games that these teams have played have gone under. In fact, 8 of the last 9 games have gone under. The Lakers are playing without Kobe Bryant (shin) once again, but they have won four in a row without him. A win over Dallas at home was impressive, though they did need overtime. The Spurs will try and make this more of a half court game and they are certainly a strong defensive team as are the Lakers.
