The Lakers took the earlier meeting 116-103 as a five-point road dog. Neither squad has been playing especially well, with their depleted line-up making this a tough call on the spread line. Read on to see where Joe is placing his money.

The New Orleans Pelicans have been ice cold as of late. Not only are they not winning games, their scoring is way down. Get our NO/Mil prediction here!

The Hornets are having a tough time putting the ball in the basket lately. Miami’s defense hasn’t been playing to their upside lately, but I still think 222.5 is around 7+ points too high. I also think the early start will throw shots off. I’m betting UNDER 222.5!
