Dallas Mavericks vs Los Angeles Lakers Live Stream - Los Angeles have spent the previous months showing they are not particularly corresponding hosts. The Lakers will play a match against the Mavericks tonight.
Dallas, the best road record in the league, visits Los Angeles on Thursday. The Lakers have nine consecutive victory at Staples Center since the All-Star break and they can make it eight straight wins overall in a showdown with the Mavericks and potential second-round playoff battle.
"It's as important as the last game we played against Dallas. It was a game we keyed on our schedule and have guys thinking about it," Lakers coach Phil Jackson said.
The Mavericks are 27-10 away from home, they finished an NBA-best 27-14 in 2009-2010. Dallas are in the second spot, losing all three road matches. The Los Angeles currently have a half-game lead over Dallas in the Western Conference. Thursday's match could go a long way in deciding which team would host a potential 2nd-round game seven between the teams that have not met in the postseason since 1988.
"It's not a big deal if we end up 24-1. What matters is we get to the playoffs healthy and with the best record possible," Lakers Center Pau Gasol said.
On January 19, Dallas won their first game over Los Angeles 109-100 at home. Jackson's team is well-rested after a 102-84 rout of New Orleans Hornets last weekend. The Lakers are 15-1 since the All-Star break and has won nine straight games at home.
The Dallas Mavericks vs Los Angeles Lakers is scheduled to be held at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California and will kick off at 10:30pm ET. Dallas Mavericks vs Los Angeles Lakers Live Stream will be televise live on TNT, KESN, KSPN and TSN2. Catch the live coverage of the game via NBA League Pass.
