Lakers (7-6) vs Bulls (8-5)

November 20, 2016 @ 6:30PM PST

Spectrum Sports Net / 710 AM ESPN / 1330 AM Espanol

Staples Center

After a tough loss without Russell against the Spurs, the Lakers showed a lot of fight but just didn't execute down the stretch against a better experienced team, plus the cold start didn't help our cause. Hopefully Russell will be back in the line-up tonight and we can take advantage of the Bulls, who are on the 2nd night of a back to back and will be resting Wade. Rondo is also questionable. I'm hoping our wings have a great game with Wade out and likely meaning more mins for Denzel Valentine but may just mean sliding Canaan over to SG.

Key Match-Ups

1. Randle vs Gibson + Portis + Lopez
2. Young vs Butler
3. Ingram vs Butler

No word yet on Russell playing so I'll assume Calderon again

Lakers...

Bulls...

Odds say we have a very good shot at this one. I had read that Russell was out on ESPN yesterday. Could be wrong....

Fairly even matchup with the starters. Second units we have an advantage.

One of the more winnable games in this incredibly hard stretch, a loss here would be tough.

Rondo is listed as questionable. No word yet on DLO, but he's officially a GTD I believe

Is Wade out?

This is a winnable game, specially at home.
A loss would be pretty tough, even this early in the season.

After the tough start and eventual loss on Friday, the Lakers should come out ready to play from the get-go.

Let's go Lakers :clap:

They're resting Wade tonight. Rondo is questionable, he's been battling an ankle injury I believe, but he played last night so I wouldn't be surprised if he played tonight.

D-lo is still questionable. We should know soon tho.

Sunday games are usually duds for us, too many young guys partying on Saturday and playing hungover Sunday lol. If we don't win this one then this tough stretch we're on is probably going to get really ugly.

Looks like Mirotic will replace Wade in the starting lineup
