Golden State Warriors vs. Los Angeles Lakers Start Time, Preview, TV
- Updated: December 23, 2014
The Los Angeles Lakers will take on the Golden State Warriors tonight as they play at home in Los Angeles. The Lakers are coming off of a loss to the Kings.
Kobe Bryant struggled in their previous game and action is something that needs to come about when it comes to the number of minutes he is playing night in and night out. He said this to ESPN.com
“Obviously, I have had tough moments,” said Bryant, who shot 8 of 30 and finished with 25 points and nine turnovers in Sunday’s 108-101 loss at Sacramento. “But the thing that I have always found effective is to focus on where you’re at in the moment and time.”
Scott has alluded to that place being on the bench for an upcoming game so Bryant can get some much-needed rest.
“It is difficult because I want him out there, and I know how much he wants to be out there as well,” Scott said. “(We) talked a little bit about the procedure of the next couple of games and what we feel we might have to do. And he was in agreement with whatever I wanted to do with him as far as sitting him down a game or whatever.”
It doesn’t seem likely that Bryant will sit out against the Warriors. NBA.com reports:
Stephen Curry is averaging 30.3 points and 12.3 assists in his last three against Los Angeles. He had 12 and 11 on Monday for the Warriors, who have won back-to-back games since having a 16-game winning snapped by Memphis last Tuesday.
“The Lakers are playing better and fighting in games and being competitive,” Curry said. “They’re going to give us a good punch, so we’ve got to be ready.”
