Play - LA Lakers (Game 540).
Edges - Lakers: 10-3 SU and 9-4 ATS with LeBron James when coming off a playoff loss, including 5-0 ATS this season … Nuggets: 0-7 SUATS as a road dog in the playoffs when coming off consecutive wins; and 10-24-2 ATS in this series when coming off consecutive wins, including 0-5 ATS in the playoffs … With No. 1 seeds just 39-65-3 ATS as favorites of fewer than 7 points in Round Three of the playoffs, we recommend a 3* play on the Lakers. Thank you and good luck as always.
FYI: In the Preakness Stakes race today we liked the 8 horse, First Mission to win but he was scratched. With that, we recommend and exacta box of 3, 1: 3) Mage and 1) National Treasure.
