For the first time this season, we will get to see the Los Angeles Lakers and the Houston Rockets square off.
As two of the best teams in Western Conference, this will have a playoff feel on Saturday night in Houston. Despite being a bit banged up, the Lakers have been finding ways to win. However, despite a great comeback attempt, the Lakers did fall short in their most recent game against the Orlando Magic.
With the Magic coming in banged up as well, the Lakers might have been looking ahead to the Rockets. The good news is for the Lakers that they are expected to have a few key players back in the lineup.
