Preview and Chat: Lakers vs. Nuggets

LAL arrived at their hotel at 2:47 a.m. for the tail end of the B2B against Denver. Phil Jackson used to call such games “schedule losses.“

Honestly, I could have just embedded the above tweet from Mike Trudell and called it a day. The Lakers are very likely to lose this game simply based on the travel aspect — especially since they are coming from the West Coast, where they lose an hour in the air going to the Mountain Time Zone (which is in addition to the hour they also just lost due to daylight savings).
