It is very important for Washington to start winning now. The Wizards will try to put up a good fight against the Lakers, but the opponent also sets itself up for every game as if it is their last fight.
The Lakers are one of the biggest disappointments this season, but there’s still hope to come out on top. The team is not ready to put up with their current situation, so they’ll try to take on the club from the capital on their home court.
The teams have no choice but to go forward and show character. There’s no doubt that the home side will try to take the lead, while the visitors have nothing to lose.
In four of the last five head-to-head matches, the Lakers scored more than 113.5 points.
The Lakers continue to disappoint with their play, and ninth place in the Western Conference only confirms it. The team is clearly not ready for competition and is suffering rather than showing their basketball.
The Lakers lost their last two games, as they were weaker than the San Antonio Spurs (110-117) and Houston Rockets (130-139). Of course, that wasn’t the outcome LeBron James and others were expecting, but the important thing now is to remain in the play-in zone. They have a home game against the Washington Wizards ahead of them, so there’s plenty to look forward to.

In the game against the Rockets, Russell Westbrook scored 30 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists.
Washington Wizards:
The Wizards are fighting for a place in the top ten, but so far they have been unable to catch up with the Atlanta Hawks. Wes Unseld’s men are alternating losses with wins, a trend that is clearly not helpful.
