Lakers visit Spurs in early Western Conference showdown

There should be plenty of fireworks between the San Antonio Spurs and the Los Angeles Lakers when the two teams meet on Sunday for the first time this season at the AT&T Center in the Alamo City. The stakes always are higher and the spotlight a little brighter whenever the Lakers, LeBron James and his posse hit town, and that certainly will be the case on Sunday. Each is 4-1 after five games and head into Sunday's game after impressive road wins on Friday: San Antonio over Golden State and Los Angeles over Dallas.
