Lakers haven't played since Friday, a disappointing buzzer-beating loss to Washington. Atlanta lost a shootout to Sac on Sunday. Both teams have been pushing the ball, especially the Hawks (scoring over 97 ppg, while giving up nearly 99 ppg). Lakers poor shooting (less than 40%), but have been scoring nearly 92 ppg nonetheless, meaning they have taken lots of shots. I think both teams can turn it up in the 2Q, after a potentially slow starting 1Q. Caution in the wind.....GLTA.
