After a shocking upset of the Golden State Warriors, the Los Angeles Lakers looked to keep up the momentum against one the best in the Eastern Conference, the Chicago Bulls. Pau Gasol would have his first game against his former team, while the Lakers would once again be without star Kobe Bryant. Here are the highlights:
