Prediction

This is a huge game for both sides, with the two the bookmakers' favorites to meet in this year's NBA finals.

The 2K stream favors the visitors in this one, but we are swaying towards the Los Angeles Lakers.

LeBron James loves games like this and they are coming in fresh of the back of a big win over fellow challengers the Philadelphia 76ers.

The battle between AD and Giannis will be key, if Davis can keep the Greek Freak quiet then it will go a long way towards a Lakers win.
