There has to be a bump in the road somewhere, but Lakers have been so out of sync lately that it would be a shock if they were the ones to cut our hot streak, since our biggest strenght (cohesive team play) is their biggest weakness.
However the individual matchup aspect is slightly concerning. Last time we played them AD sonned Collins and went 26/16 (5 OREB) with +34 in 29 minutes, while Collins was 15/4 with -29. However Kessler didnt play in that game, and back then we were the ones who were out of sync. That was also an IST game, and they were really fired up about that tourney. I'm slightly concerned about our starting lineup vs AD, but we should dominate the non-AD minutes and our advantage in bench vs bench is massive.
Lately the Lakers havent been able to match anyones energy, and if we are play fearless with our usual energy and aggressiveness we will win this game, barring some major shooting discrepancy. Just keep in mind this is one of the games where we likely cannot save a bad shooting night by blowing them out on the boards.
