... would be nice to win this. We fall behind the Wolves, I think, if they lose this. Or tie. _________________ Austin Reaves

PREVIEW: Lakers ride wave of optimism into matchup with Jazz
Quote: | After ending their drought against the Los Angeles Clippers, the Los Angeles Lakers believe they can improve despite their endless fountain of youth and inconsistency.
"We just got to grow up, to be honest with you," guard Jordan Clarkson said Monday, a day after the Lakers earned a 111-102 win over the Clippers. "The game started being easy for us and we tend to relax. That's where we got to put our foot down and do what we're supposed to do, move the ball, do all the right things, do all the fundamentals."
Seven Lakers scored in double figures against the Clippers, led by Nick Young and Timofey Mozgov with 19 each. It was the first time the Lakers defeated the Clippers since Oct. 29, 2013, ending an 11-game losing streak.

This would be a big win. And paired w the Clippers win could put us back on track again.
Hill and Exum are out. _________________ 24 |

They've had crazy good luck this year when it comes to opponents being injured. |

We have very favorable schedule starting tonight til end of January. It's a good time start winning some games to make up for the losses recently. |

Yeah that's what I'm saying, even when it seems like the Lakers have had a ton of injuries, the opponents are even more banged up almost every night. |

I expect Mozgov to rain jumpers down on him which opens up the lane for Hulk to SMASH puny Jazz! |

There's a knowledge gap there you could exploit to gain some basketball twitter hype - which teams have most benefited from opponents' injuries. But without data to provide context, your assertion is gut feel. |

if Sacramento Stays put at the 8th seed, I would bet they will collapse at some point, so we just need to stay afloat. |
