Game 1: deadline is 8 pm EST / 5 pm PST on date noted above:

LA Lakers
At
Chicago Bulls

While this may seem a mismatch of epic proportions….a few things to ponder.

1. Lakers are playing the 2nd of a back-to-back, having gotten their ™™™ whipped last night at Minnesota; Lakers stink when they play back-to-back.

2. Lakers often play down to the level of competition, and this year, not only are capable of losing to top teams like Sacramento, but getting beaten by Atlanta Hawks

3. Bulls have beaten the Lakers 4 of the last 7 they played in the past 4 years (during which the Bulls have a 0.300-0.350 winning percentage while the Lakers win 65% of their games)

4. You’d think 4 Hall of Famers could beat a Bulls team….but then again, 2 Hall of Famers couldn’t even beat a Hawks team.

So, what seems like a mismatch on paper could turn out to be a blowout by the Bulls, esp. if the Lakers continue to play bullsh*t defense
