LA Lakers at Memphis
Opposite situations for tonight s opponents.
LA Lakers just got a great win over Dalls Mavericks , stopping the longest winning streak of the season. Kobe Bryant, who scored 14 of his 26 points in a final quarter , added eight rebounds and six assists, while Luke Walton scored 21 points and had six assists. The biggest shot, though, came from reserve guard Sasha Vujacic, whose 3-pointer with 28.5 seconds left proved the game-winner. Lakers are really showin like a great team this year , and thier record, 23-11, proves that. But they are just 7-7 on the road this season.
Los Angeles has lost six of its last eight meetings with the Grizzlies (8-27), however, and five of the last six in Memphis.
The hosts , Memphis , are a different team since their new coach arrived. They cored a lot better , and Gasol s comeback gave them a lot of confidence. The great shot accuracy of Miller made that great game against Golden State victory 144 - 135, last week. Memphis lost its second straight game on Sunday, 110-96 to the San Antonio Spurs, and fell to 2-3 under interim coach Tony Baron.
In my opinion , Lakers will try to slow down the game , beacuse they re playin back to back , and tomorow is a important game at Houston , and nobody wants to push it real hard tonight.
So , today s pick goes to :
