The Los Angeles Lakers should be favored at home and have the rest advantage, but this is a lot of points for a Lakers squad that ends up in a lot of close games. The Oklahoma City Thunder have also been covering machines on the road dating back to last season and like the Lakers, they're fighting for playoff positioning and even better seeding. Lot of points here. I'll take my chances with OKC on the road.
