No not yet. It's rarely announced this early.

Considering the war this team went through it's understandable. |
It's also a back-to-back. Real chance we go 0-2 here. |
We will not go 0-2 come on now...

Why did you have to say that. The Bball Gods are listening. lol
Lakers more likely to show up going through the motions instead of ready to be competitive. Would it surprise anyone that this “easy win” turns into a down by double digits after the 1st blowout?
Hoping not, I would love to sit down later tonight to an entertaining and enjoyable recording of my Lakers getting an “easy win” !

At this stage anyone who says it should be an easy win for the Lakers is just flat out trolling, you should know better lol. |

| so far this season, the only time Lakers did show up and blow out a lesser team from start to finish was the game against the Pistons. other than that they always came out nonchalantly against non-marquee teams. |

Must have been people speculating that LeBron or AD wouldn’t play. Lakers are a slight favorite now and should really be a huge favorite in my opinion. |

| This is a good chance to get a win. with ATL tomorrow you would have the luxury of resting both LeBron and AD against the Hawks if we take care of business against the Rockets |

I was thinking that was gonna be a nationally televised game but I guess it isn't it's just a regular broadcast for both teams. But you know I still think that the league would prefer shall we say if Star players are not rested during this "rivalry game".

TNT is supposed to carry the Lakers and Celtics game unless they decided to change it, they have had that game scheduled for TNT for months now |

 That's what I would've thought. When I looked at the NBA app it just said spectrum Sportsnet plus but I find it difficult to believe it wouldn't be on national.
