    Understanding Public and Money

    Think of 'Public' as the percentage of people betting on each side and 'Money' as how much money is being bet. When there's a big difference between the 'Public' and 'Money' data, it usually means that the more serious bettors (referred to as 'Sharp Money') are favoring a particular side.

    Zack's Analysis:

    The Lakers have negated the Rockets' small-ball approach for three straight wins and ATS covers. With a limited lineup, the Rockets have had severe breakdowns and lapses. Yet, they’ve fought in each loss and have the veteran makeup to take it one game at a time. Grab Houston as the Lakers bench contributions take a small dip.

    Tim's Analysis:

    Am I riding the Rockets too long? Maybe. But I thought they showed a lot of life in the fourth quarter and cut a 20-plus point deficit to five before running out of time. I'm playing the Rockets on the moneyline.

    Kenny's Analysis:

    LeBron James and company have made all of the right adjustments, holding the Rockets to just 104 points per game over the last three. The Lakers' offense has kicked into high gear, scoring 117, 112 and 110 points respectively over the last three games. Look for Los Angeles to close out the series behind another dominant effort.

    Mike's Analysis:

    The Lakers have been a different team since they turned to Rajon Rondo for added playing time, winning each of the last three games by at least eight points. Meanwhile, the Rockets have lost a key player in their rotation with Danuel House Jr. having to leave the team for violating bubble guidelines. If not for a late comeback, the Rockets would have lost Game 4 by far more than the 10-point difference in the final score. Look for the Lakers to cover here as they advance to the Western Conference Finals.
