Game 1 goes down Thursday at the STAPLES Center in Los Angeles, with LA as a 6-point favorite and a total of 205.5. The sports betting public have been cautious in backing Los Angeles in the early going, as Sportsbook.com  reports only 57% of the action coming in on the home team.

The two teams have gone 3-7 on the Over/Under in their last 10 at the STAPLES Center. Orlando has done well when underdogs of 6-points or less. The Lakers haven’t covered as much as the Magic when favored by 6-points or less going 11-9 ATS. They have 8 Overs and 12 Unders in their last 20 in this situation.

After that, the scene shifts to the Magic Kingdom and fittingly the prospective lines shift as well, as Orlando is a prospective 3-point home fave for Game 3 on Tuesday with the Total set at 204.

Overall, Orlando has been anything but magic at home against the Lakers going 6-10 ATS. Worth noting though is that the last five games between these two in Orlando have resulted in five straight Overs.
