Lakers Take On San Antonio Spurs
- Updated: December 11, 2015
Kobe Bryant and the Los Angeles Lakers will travel to San Antonio to take on the Spurs on Friday night. The game will be aired on ESPN.
The Lakers are having a disappointing season as we all know but they did show some encouraging signs in their last game. In the midst of their long road trip they battled with another young team the Minnesota Timberwolves before losing in overtime.
D’Angelo Russell and Julius Randle are playing well in their new roles off the bench. Russell had a career high 23 points last time out.
For many years the Lakers and Spurs have had many battles as two of the powerhouses in the Western Conference. While the Lakers have fallen on hard times the Spurs keep finding ways to win.
This year’s Spurs team is led by Kawhi Leonard who has emerged as one of the best players in the league. The Spurs did make the big addition of free agent LaMarcus Aldridge which got everyone’s attention.
While the Spurs have always played with balance this year’s team is doing what they always do in terms of flying under the radar. With all the talk about the Golden State Warriors 23-0 start the Spurs are quietly the second best team in the league and wouldn’t surprise me if they go all the way on win the whole thing.
Tim Duncan and Kobe are two pillars for their franchises and it’s always nice to see both of them on the floor again together. If you remember last year these two teams played in San Antonio Nick Young hit a miraculous shot to help give the Lakers the win.
