SBG Global Opening Line: Mavericks – 9.5
The Los Angeles Lakers will try to pull off a very tough task tonight as they take on the Mavericks in Dallas. Los Angeles beat the Spurs in San Antonio last night and now will try and complete a rare feat that almost no team can pull off, winning back to back in Texas against the Spurs and the Mavericks. SBG Global reports that early betting shows the gambling public has faith in the Lakers pus the points.
The Dallas Mavericks have the best record in the NBA at 32-8. They will go for their sixth straight win tonight. Earlier this month, the Mavericks allowed the Lakers to shoot 54.9 percent from the field as the Lakers handed the Mavericks a rare loss. Dirk Nowitzki scored 29 points and had 13 rebounds in the loss at Los Angeles. He has been great lately averaging 37 points and 11 rebounds his last three games. He had 30 points and 10 rebounds in a 109-96 win over Houston on Tuesday. That home win took the Mavs record at home to 18-3.
Dallas is a 10 point favorite with a total of 205 at SBG Global.
The Lakers will be going for their fourth straight win tonight. The Lakers are 8-9 away from home and 18-4 at Staples.

The Lakers got great numbers from their bench last night as Vladimir Radmanovic scored 13 points and Maurice Evans added 11. "It is a good win, you can't take that away from us," Lakers coach Phil Jackson said. "But we can do better."
