Alternate Spread - 1st Half +11.5 • Los Angeles Lakers

Locking in the Lakers +11.5 for the 1st half at -145 — been here before and this is exactly the line I want. The +11.5 lets you win the ticket if this stays competitive or if the Lakers cut the deficit late, which matches my read that this should be closer than some expect. Trust experience: they survive stretches, the game should tighten in the second half, and that margin gives you real value.
