Los Angeles Lakers at New Orleans
Pick: New Orleans -1.5
The New Orleans Hornets will face the unbeaten Lakers tonight in the Bayou. The Lakers needed a big fourth quarter rally to escape the Mavs last night. This will be the third game in four nights for the Lakers, all at different venues and although this is early, that is never easy especially against a top opponent. For the Hornets this is a big measuring stick game. They will bring everything they have because it is a great chance for them to validate they can play with what looks like a Championship caliber team, which the Hornets could be themselves. They fared well vs the Lake Show last year winning twice and covering three of the four games played. I like them here in what should be a statement game and focused, peak performance.
