According to oddsmakers from oddsmakers at RealBets, Golden State is favored on the road tonight, as the Warriors are getting odds of -13.5 points against the Lakers. The over/under total for the game has been set at 23 points.

Golden State is 32-2 on the season, 15-2 on the road, 20-13-1 against the spread and 20-14 with the over. Los Angeles is 8-27 overall, 4-9 at home, 15-20 against the spread and 19-16 with the under. The home team has won three straight in this series, with the Lakers covering the spread in two of the three meetings. These two have hit the over in four of their last five meetings.

The Lakers have found a defense in their last two games, allowing just 161 points combined. Of course, Golden State brings a different challenge and the Lakers won’t be able to keep up with their firepower, so they are going to need to be more methodical in their approach. To make matters worse for the Lakers’ offense, they may be without Kobe Bryant (shoulder) and D’Angelo Russell (throat) for this game.
