Hello, Lakers Station.

Sean Davis here for Lakerstation.com. You're on for everything. Lakers. Happy All-Star weekend. I hope you guys got to relax, watch some basketball. If you guys enjoyed the three-point contest, because that was probably the only thing that was enjoyable over the weekend. But we got a lot to talk about on today's show still. The Lakers are back in action Thursday night against the Golden State Warriors. So we're going to be breaking down some of the matchups that closer we get to the game.
