NBA - LA Lakers vs Boston Celtics Basketball betting preview

Lakers should win this game by 20 points or so I believe and we can see that most times in Game 3 of the series, when the home team is 0 – 2 behind, they win by a blow out. Even Orlando and Spurs, who lost the series 4 – 1, managed to win game 3 and by double digits. In all the series so far in this situation, only two home teams won by lower than that – Hawks won by 9 points only over Boston and Utah won only by 5 points. In all other games, besides the road wins by Lakers over Denver, Boston over Detroit and Spurs over the Suns, in other cases, the home team won by double digits.

Lakers with the back to the wall, at home and with refs that probably will try to even the wrongs, after first two games that refs made calls in Celtic favor mostly.

I will take the first half bet, since it is low line and not garbage time as it is on the game itself, but since I don't like the half time bets, I will make it medium stakes bet only.

If this bet losses, you should take Lakers second half I believe.

Was thinking about Over as well, may play it in the end for low stakes bets...
