Lakers-Celtics Preview! Can LeBron James and Anthony Davis Turn Things Around Vs. Boston?
Based solely on their records, both the Lakers and Celtics are among the NBA's more disappointing teams entering Tuesday's battle at Staples Center. But while the Lakers have been consistently "meh" (or less) all year, the Celtics got off to a terrible start, and seem to have turned things around over their last 13 games. So can the Lakers do what Boston has?
That's just one topic of conversation in the big Lakers vs. Celtics Crossover Episode, with Locked On Celtics/Locked On NBA host John Karalis!
It's all sorts of fun, as three hosts break down one of the greatest rivalries sports has to offer. Why does it still resonate? What makes players and fans alike excited to see these teams play, almost 40 years after the Showtime/Bird matchups and a decade after the last championship battles?
What should fans look for on Tuesday night? How has Boston been able to right the ship? Are there any lessons there that the Lakers might apply? Karalis is skeptical, as the Celtics have done it primarily on the defensive end. That's... not where the Lakers are designed to make strides. Moreover, the dynamic is a little different, as is the roster construction. All that said, relative to many Lakers fans, Karalis is a lot more optimistic that the Lakers can get it right in time for the stuff that really matters.
It's way too early to throw too much dirt on L.A.
It's a great peek into a big game for both teams, especially a Lakers team that desperately needs to show it can beat a quality opponent in a season where good wins (or even bad ones) have been hard to come by.
