Anyone like Lakers first quarter or first half?

At home, the Lakers average a +6.5 1st quarter margin, Miami ave -0.7 as the away team.

For the half, LA are +8.2 at home, Miami +2.3 away.

I'm guessing LA will be -0.5/-1.

LA hasn't been very dependable lately when it comes to 1Q's and neither team is a bad 1Q team so I will stay way.

Yeah i was thinking that myself. Of late neither team has been overly efficient early but i think Lakers, at home, after losing to the Bucks could come out firing. I'm still unsure if i'm gonna play this game at all.

[Avon Barksdale]

well I'm one of the people on the Miami side of this game so it'd probably be better to hear from someone on the LA side.

[STC]

Haha perhaps LA to start off with an early lead and Miami bring it home to cover

I'm still very unsure because i was initially leaning the Heat and you can now get them at +3 so probably a no play.

I dont touch

dont do it. If anything just take lakers ml or -3. Sometimes they do blow teams out from the start but more often than not they start slow. That being said I feel they will be pumped from the start and come out guns blazing but anything can happen in one quarter. Gasol will have a big game and will score early.
