    Lakers 2nd game of B2B

    Can this team take care of business against a Kings team that always gives them trouble? Doesn't matter what kind of squad the Queens have, they've always given the Lakers trouble in Sac as long as I can remember. My initial lean is Queens +5.5. What do u guys think? Can the Lakeshow finally cover in Sac?

    I like Sac + the points as well. However, everytime I have bet Sac, they have burned me this year. Definitely a team headed in the wrong direction. But Sac has always played LA close at home.

    Only thing that worries me about taking the Queens is that this Lakers team just went above .500 for the season and they're showing more life and fight than usual. I'm afraid this might be another blowout. The crowd will be amped though. There's a lot more games to make a play on so I might just pass unless someone gives me a great angle for a play.

    Sac usually gets up for big opponents. Best time to bet on Sac is at home against top level teams. Going to wait, might need as many points as possible. Hoping it goes to +6 or +6.5. Sac will probably hang tight all game, cover, but not win.

    Lakers output already really seemed to taper off during the second half last night from all the intense effort, but I don't think we've had a chance yet this season to see how fast they can recover from a game like that. If the first 4 guys aren't playing up to par, it's not like the bench is going to come in and bail them out. (As a side note, this is the kind of game where capability can get stretched so thin that injuries might happen, or get re-aggravated.)

    The Kings have all these young athletic punks who are probably starting to boil over from not winning a game in a while, and after beating the Lakers two or three times during the preseason, they probably aren't overawed by the Lakers. I'm trying to figure out if the Lakers would be more likely to come out lethargic right from the start, or more likely to go flat in the second half, or what?
