The Lakers are back at it on Tuesday and this time it’s against the New York Knicks, who they face on their 9th back-to-back game of the season. It hasn’t been an ideal past few days for the purple and gold, who were (and maybe still are) rightfully frustrated with the officiating from last Saturday’s rivalry matchup against the Boston Celtics that resulted in a loss and who also didn’t have their best players suit up the following game in a blowout defeat versus the Brooklyn Nets.
