The Lakers beat the Clippers in the first match up this season, but were crushed by the Clippers in the last game facing them.
The Lakers may have to light up the scoreboard to win, as they only rank 29th in the league on defense and will be facing a Clippers’ team that is the 2nd highest scoring team in the league.
Blake Griffin and Chris Paul are the 2 leading scorers for the Clippers, but they are getting lots of help. In their 5 game winning streak the Clippers have had 3 different leading scorers in those games.
Pau Gasol is coming off a big game where he scored 29 points and the Lakers shot 54.1% in the Pelicans loss, but their D gave up 132 points and allowed New Orleans to shoot nearly 60% from the floor.
[ad-6571516]
In their last 6 games the Lakers are giving up an average of 115/7 ppg.
J.J. Reddick is still out, but the Clippers are still finding ways to win and Danny Granger may play more tonight after going scoreless in 4 minutes of action in his first game with the Clippers.
Not only will Gasol have to place the offense, but hit the glass as well. The Lakers only rank 23rd in the league in rebounds per game and they cannot give up offensive boards and easy 2nd chance points tonight.
