Raps-Lakers Preview with Lakers blog, With Malice

On Tuesday, the Raptors head to LA to face off against Kobe, Ron-Ron and company.  The Lakers, who are 29-5 at home are on an uncommon three-game losing skid.  The Raptors have been struggling as well, and have lost four of their last five games including their recent 114-101 home loss to the Sixers. 

Now, the Raps are on a four-game west coast swing and will start their road trip in Los Angeles.  Don from Lakers blog, With Malice asked me a few questions about the upcoming matchup over at his blog, here's a preview:

WM: No secret that LA's struggled over the last two games, almost in spite of themselves. Are the Raptors going to win this one?

HHN: Ugh. The Lakers are now on their first three-game losing streak in two seasons as I write this? That's not good for the Raps. As much as I'd like to see the Raps pull this one out, it's unfathomable that the Lakers will go on a four-game losing streak, it's against the law. The odds are stacked against the Raps on Tuesday.
