The Lakers will once again take on the Denver Nuggets in their third preseason game of the season. After losing their previous game to the Nuggets, Mike D’Antoni will be looking to try a different starting line-up which will include both big men Pau Gasol and Chris Kaman. It will be the first time the two take the floor together and it will be interesting to see how well the two play along side each other.
Some good chemistry w/ Chris Kaman, Pau Gasol. Both are versatile and interchangable

Jim Buss is sitting courtside tonight. Enjoyed that last Nash assist enough to imitate the way Nash dropped it behind his head.
