NBA trends lean to the Lakers in this matchup. Los Angeles has won and covered the NBA odds in six of the last 10 meetings against the Hawks.

This will be the first meeting of the year between the two teams according to the NBA betting schedule. Last year the teams split with each team winning at home as NBA results indicate.

The Hawks have been a decent team on the road this season against the NBA betting pointspread. The Hawks have an offense led by Joe Johnson that can score and their defense is respectable, ranking just outside of the Top 10 as NBA numbers show.

The Lakers have a losing record at home this season against the NBA betting number, mainly because they are laying big points. The Lakers usually win straight up at Staples Center but they don’t always cover the big NBA betting odds. Los Angeles continues to lead the league in offense as NBA stats show and Kobe Bryant is among the league leaders in scoring. It is defensively where the Lakers have struggled at times, ranking in the bottom half of the league as basketball betting stats show.
