L.A. Lakers, fast-break makers, kings of the …

Not really, but for some reason that song just popped into my head.

Excited to see how the Bulls fare versus a tough three-game stretch that’s coming up.

First up, Kobe and Co.

Way back on November 11th, the Bulls got smacked, 106-78. This time around the Lakers will be without, Brian Cook, Kwame and Mo Evans, but add Trevor Ariza, who’s shooting 54% since coming over from the Magic. The Lakers are 5-2 in December with losses to the Magic and Warriors.

Note to fans: booing is acceptable; chanting, “we want Kobe” makes you a dumb asshole.
