As long as Kobe Bryant was in a Lakers uniform, it was going to be hard for LA to turn the page. But Bryant is gone now and the Lakers have surrounded holdover Nick Young with a lot of young talent, including D'Angelo Russell, Jordan Clarkson and Julius Randle. The group came up big on Wednesday night as the Lakers surprised the Hawks in Atlanta, 123-116. But they'll get a tougher challenge tonight as the Lakers host a Golden State team that is coming off a 122-96 pounding of Oklahoma City last night.
