LAKERS vs PACERS (PRE-GAME REPORT)


The Indiana Pacers are coming off a blowout against the Orlando Magic, but the Pacers were the losers. Their record is 6-10. They have no lock down defender, besides maybe Marquis Daniels. Yes, Marquis Daniels. Haven't heard of him? Well he's probably one of the better defenders on this team, and his task will probably be to guard the greatest player on the planet. Sucks to be him. Danny Granger is the primary scorer and with Mike Dunleavy out, he has to carry a big load. He has some help from newly acquired PG T.J. Ford, who takes it too personal against the Lakers which usually throws his game off. Granger is averaging 24 points a game. Following him is Daniels with 16 a game then Ford with 14 a game. If you call this your big three then you must be in trouble.

The Lakers are coming off a blowout against the Toronto Raptors, Lakers Won. Their record is 14-1. Our defense has been incredible although the stats don't show how incredible it has been. In the last game against the Raps, Chris Bosh was held to just 12 points and 6 rebounds after having 3 or 4consecutive monsterous games. We have an all 1st team defensive player. His name is Kobe, I'm sure you've heard of him. We also have a guy that's averaging just over 2 blocks a game and is third in the league in blocks. We call him A-Train. You may know him as Andrew Bynum. We are healthy and have 6 people on the team pretty much averaging double digits. We have a big 12 who contribute every night. Look for the Lake Show to make it 15-1 and 8 straight. This is the beginning of a 3 game road trip. Indiana Pacers, you are in trouble.
