Los Angeles has played two exciting games so far, including a fight that occurred on Saturday against the Rockets, but the Lakers and LeBron James still are looking for their first win of the season. The Lakers shot only 25 percent from 3-point range against Houston with James leading seven players in double figures with 24 points. The Lakers' defense has been a big problem in the early going, and it couldn't contain James Harden, who poured in 36 points while Chris Paul added 28 points and 10 assits. San Antonio opened with a win over Minnesota before falling at Portland, 121-108, as the Trail Blazers shot the lights out making 53.6 percent from the field and 15-of-32 from 3-point range. Newly-acquired DeMar DeRozan led the Spurs with 28 points, which is a good sign as the Spurs need to replace the offensive weapons it lost in trades. The Lakers will be missing Brandon Ingram and Rajon Rondo due to suspensions. The line is near even, and San Antonio just has to win the game. Take the Spurs.
