Rockets tonight, Spurs tomorrow. On the one hand, it's reason for concern among Lakers fans. On the other, it's a chance for one of those "how championship teams are made" moments in the season.

Lakers look for the season sweep of the Suns and the chance to rinse the bad taste of Friday's loss out of their mouths. It's like multitasking.

Heads up. With Monta Ellis back, the Warriors are better than their record might indicate (their 19 wins, of course, indicating that they're pretty awful). Corey Maggette is now coming off the bench, which changes GSW's look that much more.
Still a game the Lakers should win, but by now we all know the dangers of casual play against Don Nelson's fun house gang.

What was supposed to be a marquee matchup of two Western Conference titans instead pits one elite squad (that would be your Lakers) against a Jazz squad so battered by injuries that they're battling for a playoff spot. Still, they're very good at home (20-6), and Deron Williams has been a bad, bad man over the last 10 days or so. Tonight, Utah is without AK47 and Carlos Boozer, more lack of continuity that has contributed to subpar-by-Jazz-standards defense this season.
The Jazz still play fundamentally strong ball, move well, and pass the rock, so the Lakers will have to mind their p's and q's. If they do, LA's superior fire power combined with Utah's limited frontcourt scoring ought to get them into the All Star break on a high note.

The Lakers have already turned in a great road trip. Beat the Cavs today at the Q, and it becomes somewhat otherworldly. Kobe vs. LBJ will deservedly get the attention, but for me the most interesting things to watch will be closer to the basket. LA crushed the Z-less Clevelanders down low when the teams met in LA, but now Andrew Bynum is out and Ilgauskas is back.
I'm very interested to see if/how that changes the dynamic between the two teams.
