The Lakers on their longest Motel Swing of the 2013-14 Season goes into Toronto and beats the Atlantic Division leading Raptors 112-106. The Lakers get big production from Ryan Kelly, @kbutta5, and of course Nick at Nite 2.0.

Down 58-54 to the New Raptors the Lakers the Lake Show goes 28-23 in the 3rd frame to take a 82-81 lead into the 4th. Behind steady PG play from Sneaker Fiend Kendall Marshall (10 pts 11 assts) and Center Pau Gasol 22 points as he grabbed nine Oranges the Lakers hold off the Dinosaurs in this one. "Nick at Nite" 2.0 Nick Young gets a game-high 29 as +SwaggyP doe (Google Plus) hit five Money Balls and was 10 for 1 from the stripe. Rook Ryan Kelly of #DukeInTheNBA gets his first career start and goes 17 while grabbing five Oranges The Lakers  shot 12 of 22 from deep and an impressive 26 for 28 from the Stripe to seal the "W".

The Raptors get 23 points, six boards and seven helpers from high-flying Compton, California Native by way of "Men of Troy" U Demar Derozan and 21 points and nine helpers from his "Partner in Crime" Kyle Lowry. Lithuanian Big Jonas Valanciunas had only 4 points and seven boards as he was a non-factor. The Dinosaurs must start to go inside then out to get better looks on the perimeter and keep Big Jonas happy! The Raptors settling for jump shots all day long only get to the line 11 times compared to 28 for the Lakers and that was you ball game #AggressiveLakers.

The Lakers move to 16-25 and the Dinosaurs fall to 20-19 but lead the Atlantic over the surging Brooklyn Nets by just 3.5 games.
