5* Heat/Lakers NBA Blue Chip Over/Under Total Top Play: UNDER 206.5

In one of the most anticipated games of the first half, I expect the Lakers and Heat to bring the defensive intensity tonight. The Lakers have turned their attention to the defensive side of the floor and with Dwight Howard finally playing like himself, he should control the paint and force James and Wade to settle for jump shots. In the two meetings between these two teams last year, they combined for just 185 and 176 points. Even with the Lakers new up-tempo attack, I don't see either team reaching 100 points tonight. BET THE UNDER!
