The bad from the Los Angeles Lakers’ loss:

The Los Angeles Lakers quit.

This is rock bottom folks. The players embarrassed themselves and the organization with this performance. The stars are prima donnas and the rest of the team don’t care.

  • LeBron James had seven turnovers…
  • Russell Westbrook had seven turnovers…
  • The team shot 7-34 from behind the arc for 20.6 percent.
  • They shot 34.7 percent from the field while allowing the Pelicans to shoot 51.1 percent.
  • They were outrebounded 51-38.
  • Throw in 12 offensive rebounds that they gave up the Lakers basically didn’t stop the Pelicans offense.
  • The 23 turnovers gave away easy points, a season-high.  

There is no way that a Lakers point guard…

Can turn the ball over seven times collecting a NBA paycheck with only one turnover like Russell Westbrook did in this game. That assist came with five minutes left in the game.
