27. 80. 20. Final. 92

MVP: The fans who watched this game. Go ahead. Stand up, pat yourself on the back, then go open a cold one. Because that was as awful a game as you’ll see all year (or at least I hope so).

LVP: Wayne Ellington gets the award this time around. After having played so well in the past few games, I suppose he was due for a bad night. Today was really bad, finishing 2 for 12 from the field.

Stat of the Night: 18. As in both the number of points the Lakers scored in the third quarter and the number of points Carmelo Anthony had in the third quarter. I think you can figure out how that third quarter went for the Lakers.
