The Spurs are 5-0 SU in their last 5 games at home
The Spurs are 8-2 SU in their last 10 games
Dwight Howard (shoulder), Pau Gasol (concussion) and reserve Jordan Hill (hip) are out indefinitely for Los Angeles
The Lakers have lost 4 straight games and sit 4 games under.500
The Lakers have not lost 5 in a row since April 3rd to 10th, 2011
@lakerlegend They need to go something like 31-17 to finish the season with a chance to make the playoffs. You think they can pull it off?

ROLL CALL! Where are you all following from this evening?
Spurs win the opening tip!
Duncan misses the baseline fadeaway, LAL rebound
Kobe misses the contested 3ball, SA rebound.
Parker is called for the TRAVEL.
Kobe drives into the paint and is REJECTED. Spurs carry the other way and Leonard misses the layup.
MWP NAILS a 3ball at the other end to get the Lakers on the board.
Parker rolls in the one-hander to pull the Spurs within 1.
Parker dishes inside to a WIDE OPEN Duncan who easily rolls in the deuce.
Lakers call a TIMEOUT with 9:16 left in the 1st Q.
The Lakers came out and MWP scored the first 5 points, the Spurs have controled the last few possesions and have scored 8 straight on the Lakers.
