Spurs and Lakers set for 1230 tip here at Staples Center, where absolutely nobody is contemplating hanging back in the media room to watch the end of the early NFL games on the wall of five big screen TVs in there, so how dare you even insinuate such a thing. – 2:30 PM

Talen Horton-Tucker’s perimeter defense is a main reason he gets the starting nod today vs. San Antonio despite not playing a game since June 3.
“We need his defense,” Frank Vogel said. “I’m hoping for the best.” – 2:09 PM

Vogel had mentioned that it’s harder to go small without both LeBron and Ariza, the truly bigger/longer wings, but THT – thanks in part to his wingspan – can size up closer to that than the other LAL guards. – 2:09 PM
