First up, following the Brooklyn Nets vs. Boston Celtics, and New York Knicks and the Los Angeles Lakers will meet at the Staples Center.
The Lakers have bounced back and are looking like the team many expected them to be. They have won four straight grames and are on a roll. With Steve Nash back, the Lakers look like a new team and should be able to breakdown the Knicks' defense.
However, it won't be easy. The Knicks are one of the best teams in the NBA. They have the second best record in the Eastern Conference and are 7-3 in their last 10 games.
Following this game, even a more exciting matchup is a rematch of the 2012 NBA Finals between the Miami Heat and Oklahoma City Thunder.

The Heat are rolling as they are winners of four straight.
This game will be all about Kevin Durant vs. LeBron James, Russell Westbrook vs. Dwayne Wade, Serge Ibaka vs. Chris Bosh. It's probably the best matchup of the day.

Wrapping up the game will be Denver Nuggets will take on the Los Angeles Clippers in a matchup featuring two of the fastest teams in the NBA.
