Chicago Bulls vs. Los Angeles Lakers: How to watch
After a tough loss last night to the Los Angeles Clippers, the Chicago Bulls will look to beat the other team from the City of Angels.
Well, it was good while it lasted. As the Bulls four-game winning streak comes to an end a new one may be beginning tonight, with the next four Chicago games against teams who didn’t make the playoffs.
However, before we start thinking ahead, the Bulls, and more importantly the Bulls bench, will need to come prepared. They’ll be going against a young, playoff hopeful team in the Los Angeles Lakers, hoping to steal a game off a weary Bulls side playing in the second game of a back-to-back.
In case you missed the first game you can see our takeaways here. Essentially the Bulls got off to a great first quarter, led by 19 at one stage, and couldn’t score in the second half – in particular the fourth quarter – to save themselves.

Nevertheless, the Bulls did have a chance to win near the closing stages until Jimmy Butler was called for a dubious foul when Blake Griffin threw up a Hail Mary inside the 3-point line to beat the buzzer.
Moving on from that disappointment, the Bulls will have to watch out for this young, talented Lakers side who have already snagged wins against teams such as the Houston Rockets, Atlanta Hawks and Golden State Warriors.
The big news for the Lakers has been the bolstering of the bench by sitting Jordan Clarkson who is averaging 15 points on 49 percent shooting from the field. When combined with players such as Lou Williams, Brandon Ingram – the No. 2 pick in the 2016 NBA draft – and Larry Nance, Jr., the Lakers second unit may be the best in the league.
So how do the Bulls beat the Lakers you may ask? Although these kids may be talented and filled with potential, at the end of the day they are still kids. The Bulls will have to muster up as much experience as they can to offset the hype train which is the Lakers.
