The NBA’s greatest rivalry will be renewed Thursday when the Lakers take on the Celtics in Boston.
Los Angeles is looking for consistency as it moves forward on its annual Grammy tour. The Lakers defeated the Warriors in a double-overtime thriller on Saturday, but lost their next two games against the Rockets and Hawks, leaving LeBron James extremely frustrated.
“We could, on any given night, beat any NBA team. And then, on any given night, any NBA team could kick our asses.” James said Tuesday. “What’s our record? 24-25? That’s where we are.”
If they want to bounce back on Thursday, they’ll have to do it without James. He and Anthony Davis are scheduled to miss the game due to injury.
Boston, meanwhile, has been outperforming the competition. The Celtics, who have won eight of their last 10 games, have the best record in the NBA (37-11). They recently beat the Pacers thanks to a 30-point effort from All-Star starter Jayson Tatum.
