The Los Angeles Lakers will travel to Tennessee tonight as they take on the Memphis Grizzlies on the road. The Lakers are coming off of a loss against the Miami Heat on Wednesday night.

The Lakers have now lost three in a row and they gave up the game again with four and a half minutes left. They will have to do better than that if they want to win tonight. ESPN.com reports the following on the game:

“A visit from the Lakers (16-44), losers in 13 of 14 on the road, would appear to provide a great opportunity to end the current skid. Memphis has won five straight over Los Angeles for its longest winning streak in the history of this series.

The three matchups this season, though, have been fairly competitive with those games decided by a combined 14 points. Most recently, Memphis came away with a 109-106 victory Jan. 2 when now-injured Lakers superstar Kobe Bryant missed a 3-pointer as time expired. The Grizzlies’ last two home wins in the series have been decided by five points apiece.

The Memphis Grizzlies recently had a self boost after beating the Houston Rockets. ESPN.com report the following:

Zach Randolph contributed 15 points, eight rebounds and six assists after missing Tuesday’s 93-82 loss to Utah because of an illness.

“It was huge for us mentally because we hadn’t been playing to our level of expectations,” point guard Mike Conley said. “We’ve lost some games in the past few weeks that we feel like we shouldn’t have lost. To lose (Tuesday) night in Utah and to beat a very good team in Houston that we know is going to be there in the playoff standings, it means a lot.”

Let’s go Lakers!!
