Advice and prediction
The Lakers are still working out some kinks, and while Anthony Davis has been playing well, LeBron James is struggling. He has shot at least 50 percent in just one game so far this season, and he has failed to reach the 40 percent mark in both of the last two contests.
Cleveland, on the other hand, may have the best backcourt in the NBA, as well as a frontcourt that blocks shots, runs the floor and throws down lob passes very well.
Expect the Lakers to compete, but don’t expect them to win.
Prediction: Cavaliers 110, Lakers 104
