The Lakers had 12 assists in the 1st half against Sacramento last night.
They already have 14 at the 8-minute mark of the 2nd Q tonight, and lead 40-33 despite 3 quick triples from Orlando. – 11:16 PM

The Magic are so starved for shooting, and the Lakers are so well-equipped with all of that size to just sit back by the rim and dare Orlando to try its luck. This is just a really tough matchup for the Magic if they aren’t getting an outlier shooting performance or two. – 11:13 PM

First quarter: Lakers 29, Magic 24
This is the first time LA hasn’t trailed by double digits at the end of the first quarter. AD has 8 points — LA has found creative ways to get him the ball. The lineup of Hayes/Wood/Reddish/Vincent/DLo edged ORL’s bench 13-8 to end the qtr. – 11:08 PM

That kick out to MPJ is the greatness of Jokic
It wasn’t the pass. The pass was rudimentary
It was the READ. The ability to anticipate the double and know exactly WHERE the pass was supposed to go. That’s what nobody other than LeBron James is doing in todays game – 10:38 PM

The @OrlandoMagic keep the same starting lineup for the third straight game as they look to improve to 3-0.
It remains to be seen if the Lakers will have LeBron James, who is now a game-time decision.

Meanwhile, Rui Hachimura (eye) is out as a precaution, but Ham didn’t sound concerned. He’ll be day to day. – 8:52 PM
