- Updated: February 1, 2015
The Los Angeles Lakers will travel to New York tonight to take on the New York Knicks on the road. The Lakers are coming off of a win following a double overtime game against the Chicago Bulls.
Wayne Ellington had a killer game against the Bulls and he scored 23 points. Jordan Hill also had a great game, he said the following to NBA.com after the game:
“We can surprise a lot of people out there if we keep playing like we did tonight,” Hill said.”
The Knicks on the other hand are “sitting in the East’s basement”, as the NBA.com put it. The site reports:
“Sitting in the East’s basement, the Knicks (9-38) had won three straight and four of five before getting blown out 103-82 at lowly Indiana on Thursday. New York was outscored 50-26 down low and allowed the Pacers to shoot a season-high 53.2 percent.
“It was just one of those nights, we took a step backwards,” Anthony said. “We had been playing some very good basketball as of late, so we just want to put this behind us and look forward to Sunday.”
The Knicks were held to combined 53 points over the final three quarters.
“No, the team didn’t quit,” said Tim Hardaway Jr., who banged his knee at the end of the game. “I don’t know why you would say that. We didn’t quit at all. They were just making shots and we weren’t.”
The Lakers will need to play as a team like they did against Chicago! Let’s hope they can bring out another win against the Knicks!
