00:00 The Celtics and the Lakers tonight in Boston inside TD

00:05 Garden. The Seas booked as an 11 and a half point favorite at

00:10 home inside TD Garden against the Lakers. The market moving

00:15 toward Boston side. We will see who is available for LA. Anthony

00:20 Davis missed the first game of this week for LA in Atlanta.

00:25 Just a few nights ago. The Lakers did not cover against

00:30 the worst cover team in the Association. The Hawks. Boston

00:33 has been the best at home this year. The best record in the

00:37 NBA overall and inside their own home arena 22 and two

00:41 straight up booked as a favorite in every game 13 and 11

00:45 against the spread. But this is a double digit number. Can the

00:50 Lakers keep it closer than the odds expect tonight in Beantown?

00:54 I think they do. Is there a chance for an upset? Possibly,

00:57 but we know how good the Boston Celtics have been at home. But

01:00 again, last couple games at home, two losses there. Also

01:03 when I believe that when might have been get was the Pelicans

01:05 at beat him. I can't remember the last game that they that

01:07 they actually won there for Boston, but closer than the

01:10 experts predicted, which I do think of. It's a double digit

01:13 line here. I'm going to take the Lakers and point case. We

01:16 know LeBron James will play this game tonight. Anthony Davis

01:19 listed as an anticipated starting lineup component here

01:22 because he sat the past game out on that back-to-back, which

01:25 they got hammered by Atlanta. It's a pretty big week here

01:28 coming up for the NBA's. We know that trade deadline is

01:31 coming closer and closer with LeBron tweeting out, you know,

01:34 cryptic little like sour glasses and what that actually

01:37 means probably means the time is growing short for the Lakers

01:40 to make a move. If they want to be a true playoff contender.

01:43 I'll take the Lakers getting double digits in Boston

01:45 tonight.
