The Lakers and Rockets are back in action today in Los Angeles for Game 2 of their first-round NBA Playoff series.
The Lakers didn’t need anything fancy in a Game 1 thatmade historyin more thanone way. Even without two key players, Los Angeles defended, controlled the tempo, and let their veterans handle the rest.
Houston heads into Game 2 down a game to the Lakers after the107-98 loss on Friday, and another loss tonight would put the series in a tough spot before it even shifts back to Texas.
It’s possible they’ll continue to be without Kevin Durant, too; the forward islisted as a game-time decisiontonight after missing out on Game 2 with a knee contusion.
Following tonight’s game, the series moves to Houston for Game 3 on Friday, April 24 and Sunday, April 26.
