Love is in the air. Love for the L.A. Lakers, that is. Their championship series against the Orlando Magic begins tonight.

Outside Staples Center, a few hours before the game, KPCC’s Brian Watt spotted Bobby Hull and Monica Flores in matching Lakers tee-shirts. Twenty-eight-year-old Monica Flores and 26-year-old Bobby Hull train new hires at a health insurance company. They met in Elementary school and will marry later in the summer.
