Why this pick
Both offenses rank top-5 in pace and the total has cleared 210.5 in four of the last five meetings. Boston is missing Porzingis inside, forcing more switching and open threes, while the Lakers push tempo off makes. The model lands at 74% for the over versus a market-implied 66%, giving a clean +8.6% edge on the total.
