Current Record: 0-0
Dallas Mavericks @ Los Angeles Lakers
Both teams will have to adapt to having very different squads. The Lakers finished the pre-season with an 0-8 record. The Mavs finished 4-4 and seemed to be getting used to playing without Dirk in the lineup. Kobe didn't practice yesterday and is doubtful to play tonight. If he does, it is likely his minutes will be limited. This game should be a lot closer than nine points.
