Game Preview:

http://www.nba.com/games/20090319/GSWLAL/preview.html

The Los Angeles Lakers have their longest road trip of the season looming later this week, so the Western Conference's best team would like to build a little momentum at home.

They'd especially like to forget about their most recent finish.

The Lakers will try to bounce back from a last-second loss when they host the Golden State Warriors on Thursday night in their last game at Staples Center for more than two weeks.

Los Angeles (53-14) has looked like the favorite to earn home-court advantage throughout the playoffs ever since it came home from a 6-0 road trip last month that concluded with wins over fellow contenders Boston and Cleveland.

The Lakers had been 7-0 at Staples Center since returning, and appeared to have an eighth straight home win well in hand Tuesday night, leading Philadelphia by 14 in the fourth quarter.

The 76ers came back, though, and Andre Iguodala answered Kobe Bryant's late jumper with a buzzer-beating 3-pointer to give Philadelphia a 94-93 win.

Los Angeles had a similar scenario unfold Sunday at home against Dallas, as it blew a 15-point lead late in the third before rallying to win 107-100.

"It's two games in a row and it's uncharacteristic," Lamar Odom said after recording his third straight double-double. "It's not like it's been a problem for us all year. We're going to watch the film of the last two games and get ready for Golden State."

The loss combined with a Cavaliers win dropped the Lakers a full game behind Cleveland in the race for home-court advantage throughout the playoffs.

The Lakers haven't lost consecutive home games since a three-game skid from March 23-28 last season, and a visit from the Warriors (24-43) would seem to be a good opportunity to make sure that doesn't happen.

Los Angeles has averaged 124.3 points in winning all three meetings with Golden State this season, and it's won 13 of 15 overall in the series and 10 of 11 at Staples Center.

Finding a way to stop Pau Gasol, who's scored at least 20 in his last four games, has been the Warriors' biggest problem. Gasol has averaged 23.3 points and 13.3 rebounds against Golden State, including a 33-point, 18-rebound effort in a 114-106 comeback win in Oakland on Jan. 7.

The Lakers begin their seven-game trip Saturday night against Chicago.



W, it better be or LG will implode.

120-113 Lakers.

That last loss had to leave a bad taste in their mouthes, so I'm hoping they'll come out with a fire that starts a strong finish to the end of the season going into the playoffs.

i hope we kill them. but our 3 pt defense is poor and the warriors chuck alot of 3s up. if they make them, they might beat us. if they dont, we will easily win.

should be a win. kobe will be revenge mode for his bad game against the lakers. also ariza should be in that same mode since he made that defensive mistake expect him to up the defensive intensity. we just gotta make sure he dont caught up in the run and gun b/s that golden state plays we need to stick to our strength and play some good defence.

Will Phil keep his words and shake up the bench? I can only hope so.

Couldn't have said it better myself, hopefully Portland stuns the Cavs.

I hope someone has a sign of Iggy's glee after that 3 point shot! That should wake the guy up if nothing else!!! Oh and a pic of Paulina Pierce kissing the championship cup would do nicely too!!!!
