L.A. Lakers at Denver- 9:00 ET
Nuggets (-) over Lakers- This western rivalry has has lost some of it's luster as both these clubs are taking on 'new' looks with old faces falling by the wayside. Brian Shaw the former Laker is now coaching the Nuggets after George Karl was dismissed after winning only 57 games last year while Los Angeles is still seeking identity since Kobe's injury. Both clubs are coming of wins as the Lakers gained some small measure of revenge after defeating New Orleans and the Nuggets pounded the Jazz on the road 100-81. Denver has won 10 of the last 14 meetings with the Lakers and will win here once again. Take DENVER!
