Both of these teams have skewed to the under in relation to the total this season. The Lakers have been massive under machines of late, falling under the total in nine of their last 10 games. Los Angeles averaged 111.2 ppg in their last 10 games, slightly below their full season mark. The Lakers are 22nd in adjusted tempo with 97.7 possessions per game while they are 8th in offensive efficiency. Brooklyn is averaging 105 ppg in their last 10 games, just below their full season average. The Nets are last in the league in tempo with 96.1 possessions per game while they are 27th in offensive efficiency. Three of the last four meetings between the teams have fallen under the total: without James and given the issues the Nets have scoring, look to the under in this contest as well.
