Los Angeles Lakers at Brooklyn Nets ATS Prediction
Buying low and selling high are we what practice and preach. Situationally, this scenario speaks into that mantra. Brooklyn comes in off the impressive upset win whilst the Lakers are enduring a nasty skid. The combination of the two cultivates a position from the public. However, in spite of the recent events the market itself was reluctant to give Los Angeles any points out of the gate. As a result of a likely overlay, we can take back the Lakers at a friendly price tag. We’ll trade the bucket and play this one on the Money Line outright.
Free Pick:
Take Los Angeles +110
