Los Angeles is fresh off of completing a perfect 2-0 homestand. On Thursday, Jordan Farmar scored a career-high 24 points to lead the Lakers in a 106-88 rout of the lowly Miami Heat at the Staples Center.

Kobe Bryant poured in 21 points, handed out eight assists and collected four steals for the Lakers, who have won 10 in a row and 13 of their last 14 games overall. Lamar Odom and Pau Gasol registered 13 points and 11 rebounds apiece in the victory.

Portland tries to win back-to-back games this evening. On Wednesday, Jarrett Jack equaled a season-high with 21 points and pulled down eight rebounds as the Trail Blazers finally beat the Clippers at the Staples Center, holding on for an 82-80 victory.

Martell Webster ended with 15 points and Channing Frye scored 12 for the Trail Blazers, who snapped an eight-game road skid versus the Clippers and beat them in Los Angeles for the first time since December 18, 2002.

The Trail Blazers are 21-8 at home this season. Portland will visit Baron Davis and the Golden State Warriors Sunday at ORACLE Arena.
