Lakers-Warriors Preview

With their two star 7-footers healthy, the Los Angeles Lakers are coming off an outstanding rebounding game. They haven't had much trouble on the boards against the Golden State Warriors in recent years.

The Lakers travel to Oracle Arena on Saturday night, looking to continue their dominance over a Warriors team that may again be without coach Don Nelson.

Los Angeles (11-3) won its fourth straight Tuesday night, 100-90 over New York. It was center Pau Gasol's third game back from a hamstring injury, and the Lakers outrebounded the Knicks 60-36.

Gasol had 11 points and 16 rebounds, and fellow 7-footer Andrew Bynum had 17 points and eight boards. Lamar Odom, 6-10, added 11 points and 16 rebounds.

"We like to use our height to our advantage," said Bynum, averaging 19.7 points and 10.9 rebounds.

Los Angeles has outrebounded Golden State (5-9) by an average of 8.1 in wining 14 of the last 16 meetings. The Lakers have also been dominant offensively, averaging 121.8 points in sweeping four games last season.

Though Los Angeles has been winning, it hasn't been really challenged in since Gasol's return. The Lakers committed 25 turnovers versus the Knicks after averaging 12.0 in their previous nine.

"We have to do a better job and put in the effort," Gasol said. "The intensity level just winds down, and we've got to continue to play hard for 48 minutes."

The Warriors have shown signs of improvement, beating Portland and Dallas before losing 118-104 to San Antonio on Wednesday night.

Golden State has played well despite having a banged-up roster. The Warriors have also played the last two without Nelson, who has been diagnosed with pneumonia.

The team announced Friday that the 69-year-old Nelson would miss three more games.

Top assistant Keith Smart will continue to lead the team in place of Nelson, the second-winningest coach in NBA history.

Nelson has taken some criticism for the Warriors' struggles. He has had trouble dealing with a young roster, getting into an argument with guard Monta Ellis earlier this month.

Ellis has played hard with the bench limited due to injuries. He tied a career high with 42 points against the Spurs, one night after scoring 37 in a 111-103 victory at Dallas.

Ellis played all 48 minutes in two straight before finally getting a break against San Antonio, leaving midway through the fourth quarter but coming back in with a little more than 3 minutes left.

"He can get to the basket whenever he wants, that will be there for him," Smart said. "We have to make sure he's ready to play every night. If your best player is ready to play every night, that's when you move to the next guy."

Ellis got some much-needed help against the Spurs, as reserve forward Corey Maggette had 14 points after missing the Mavericks game due to a strained hamstring.

Bynum-Gasol duo carries Lakers over Warriors

By Frank Hughes, for NBA.com
Posted Sunday November 29, 2009 1:53AM

OAKLAND, Calif. (NBA.com exclusive) -- Who needs Kobe Bryant when you've got a frontcourt facing a bunch of Lilliputians?

The Los Angeles Lakers' star guard got into early foul trouble and did not score a point for the first 15 minutes of Saturday night's game against the Golden State Warriors.

It mattered little, however, with Pau Gasol and Andrew Bynum destroying the Warriors' interior defense with more size and far better skill, allowing the Lakers to run away with a 130-97 decision, their fifth consecutive victory, which has them a half game behind the Phoenix Suns (12-3) for the best record in the Western Conference.

The Lakers (11-3) have a fairly decent chance of running their win streak to six on Sunday, when they face the 0-16 New Jersey Nets -- though nobody in the Los Angeles locker room wanted to speak about that game for fear of jinxing themselves.

Yes, the Warriors' frontcourt is lacking a bit right now, with starting center Andris Biedrins out indefinitely with an abdominal and groin injury and Ronny Turiaf hampered by a knee strain, forcing him to come off the bench.

That leaves newly acquired Vladimir Radmanovic as the Warriors' starting power forward, and at 6-foot-10, 235 pounds Radmanovic, a former Laker, is better suited as a small forward. Mikki Moore is the Warriors' current starting center, and at 225 pounds he is better suited for, well, shooting guard.

Neither were any match for Los Angeles' 7-foot tandem of Gasol and Bynum. The Lakers fed the ball inside early and often to the duo, who simply reached over the top of their defenders en route to a combined 27 points and 10 rebounds on 11-for-16 shooting in the first half, when the tone and, effectively, the outcome of the game was decided.

"We've really exploited [our interior advantage] over the last couple of years when we play against teams that don't have size," Lakers coach Phil Jackson said. "We try to really emphasize that. Tonight, Kobe got it going a little bit in the second half, which took away from [Bynum] and Pau, but our interior game was very good."

Gasol and Bynum combined to score 14 of the Lakers' first 21 points, Gasol catching the ball in the post, overpowering Radmanovic and flipping the ball in the basket, several times while getting fouled.

Bynum would do the same thing, one time reaching over the top of 6-foot-11 Anthony Randolph for a rebound and a putback, leaving Randolph to complain that he was pushed in the back.

This was only Gasol's fourth game back after missing the beginning of the season with a hamstring injury. Yet it seemed as if he didn't miss any time. Saturday's 22-point, 12-rebound effort was his third double-double and his presence and versatility enabled every Lakers starters to score in double figures.

"I am happy the way things are going for our team and myself right now, especially since I am able to help and produce since I have gotten back," Gasol said. "We are getting better every single game, and I feel really good about it. I am making progress, and every game I feel like I am taking a step forward."

"Pau knows he's a bad man," Bryant said.

Bryant, meanwhile, was virtually non-existent in the first half, picking up an offensive foul early that led to words with the officials, who promptly issued him a technical foul. Thirty-three seconds later, Bryant was called for his second personal foul and went to the bench. He scored only five points in the first half, his lowest output in any first half this season. He had 20 for the game, his third-lowest production of the season.

Didn't matter. The Lakers scored half of their 60 first-half points in the paint, and went to the free-throw line 16 times. When Golden State's defense occasionally collapsed, the bigs would toss it outside for an easy jumper for Derek Fisher (13 points), Ron Artest (19) or Shannon Brown (14). Los Angeles made 11-for-22 3-pointers.

This was the Warriors' second-to-last game without coach Don Nelson, who has missed three while recovering from pneumonia. Nelson won't be at Oracle Arena for Monday's game against Indiana or in Denver on Tuesday. But he'll return on Thursday against Houston, when he'll resume his quest to become the league's all-time winningest coach.

Warriors guard Monta Ellis, meanwhile, had his string of three consecutive successful games snapped, in part because the Lakers' close-out defense presented difficulties, in part because the game became so lopsided that it changed the shape of the game.

With Stephen Jackson traded to Charlotte and Nelson urging Ellis to become more of a leader, Ellis scored 32 in a win over Portland, 37 in a victory over Dallas and then 42 in a loss to San Antonio.

But against the Los Angeles, Ellis scored 18 points on 8-for-19 shooting while backcourt teammate Stephen Curry, who also had taken on more of a prominent offensive role, missed 10 of 15 shots and scored 13 points.
