L.A. Lakers at Atlanta 7:30 ET
Hawks (-) over Lakers- The Los Angeles Lakers won their first game since the return of Kobe Bryant to the line-up with a 88-85 win over Charlotte on Saturday. Atlanta meanwhile has dropped seven of their last 11 contests but are opening a three-game home stand against three sub .500 clubs. Los Angeles who is thin in the back-court in spite of Kobe's return are playing their third road game in four nights. Atlanta has incentive off their loss to the Lakers in LA back in November. Gasol is struggling and the chemistry is just not there anymore. Take ALTANTA!
