Crucifido's Corner: Lakers vs. Kings (Game 61 3/4/08)
clublakers.com 3/6/2008 — An odd schedule to be sure, but the first time the Lakers play the Kings turns out to be in March. Of the last 22, the Lakers play the Kings 4 times, which is more than a single tiered blessing. First off, playing a non-playoff team for conference games this late can definitely help the Lakers build up their win total (as long as they stay sharp every time). And second, playing a team that ...
