The Lakers haven't had many wins over teams playing good basketball, so Sunday's game against the Rockets was a big opportunity to get some momentum because Houston has defied early predictions and been very, very competitive. And that's what makes LA's 105-104 win at the Crypt a satisfying one. It's easily one of the better performances of the 14 games the team has now played. And it was fueled through two big performances from the team's stars. Anthony Davis put up 27/10 on 11-15 from the floor, putting a stamp on the game despite battling foul trouble throughout (and fouling out late). And LeBron James continues to dominate. Following Friday's huge game against Portland, James was even better on Sunday, with 37/6/8 on 14-19 shooting. And he hit the final free throw to put the Lakers ahead in the end. Austin Reaves pitched in with a big fourth quarter, Rui Hachimura did some good things in his 32 minutes of play, and Cam Reddish was a big defensive contributor despite an off night shooting, which is actually a great sign for his value going forward. Now heading into a very winnable game Tuesday the Lakers have a chance to rise three games above .500, which would be a nice spot because nobody thinks the team has played up to its full potential just yet. HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky SEGMENT 1: The Lakers get a big win against Houston, and LeBron relishes lighting up Dillon Brooks (even when Brooks is respectful). SEGMENT 2: Anthony Davis looked healthier on Sunday. SEGMENT 3: Austin Reaves had a fourth quarter he, and the Lakers, needed.
