Tip-off: 10:30 pm ET
Line: Lakers - 11
Total: 194.5
Angles/Analyses:
The Utah Jazz will try to even up the series with the Los Angeles Lakers tonight at the Staples Center.
Utah, which has five games remaining, is 1 1/2 games behind the Seattle Supersonics. Utah?s defense has allowed 100 pts or more in five of the last 9 games including the last two. On offense, the Jazz have scored more than 96 pts in seven of the last 10 games. Utah has also gone over in 5 of it?s last 6 road games, including it?s last three.
The Lakers scored 96 pts against a stingy Miami defense on Sunday as Shaquille O'Neal returned from a two-game absence and scored 40 points.
Los Angeles has won two of its first three meetings with Utah this season, including a 100-96 at the Staples Center back on November 4. Both Teams should get into the century mark tonight and get over the total.
