After losing two straight games against the Sacramento Kings and the Memphis Grizzlies, the Lakers got their first road win against the team that handed them their first loss of the season. They scored 65 points in the first half to secure a big lead against the Dallas Mavericks, 115-89.
Yay of the Game:
19-15: Reserve forward Antawn Jamison's points and rebounds in this game, in 30 minutes of action. Jamison has been getting D'Antoni's nod since their last game against Memphis, and Lakers fans can only hope that he gets it going once Steve Nash returns and Dwight Howard is at his 100%. Lamar Odom, are you seeing this?
Nay of the Game:
7: Dwight Howard's rebounds, which is awful for someone who can consistently get a double-double. The Superman has not been getting touches for the last three games, and we wonder how he is going to assert himself once again in the league. However, he's not at his best yet, so expect more from him in the days to come.
Play of the Game:
Pau Gasol might be playing awfully for the Lakers in these past games, but here's one of those nifty plays that he does as a setting big man. Drive, dish, and let Dwight finish it.
The Lakers Are Now At:
7-7 (3rd Pacific, 8th West). The Purple & Gold have just finished their road trip by returning to the .500, and hopefully the streak continues as they face Danny Granger and Roy Hibbert's Indiana Pacers. Can they finally build a winning streak?
