NBA: another stop for LA Lakers, James no longer scores

Fifth loss in the last seven contests for Los Angelinos

Something is è broken inside the LA Lakers. Even against Minnesota, the Yellow Jackets failed to play their basketball and, in fact, were overwhelmed: 109-80 the final in favor of the T'Wolves. For the team coached by Coach Redick, this was the fifth loss in the last seven games played.

The LA Lakers è record is still above 50 percent (12-9), but the offense is struggling tremendously, thanks to a James in obvious difficulty; especially in shooting from the perimeter. LBJ, in recent outings, has no longer found the three-point basket. We are currently 0/19 and the meter is running.

"The problem? Pace. In the last three/four games I feel out of rhythm. What is needed? Work, just work. That&#quot; his clear words reported by ESPN. There'è those who think that having King James play all 82 games is excessive, given his age (he will be 40 on Dec. 30). At the moment, the person directly concerned has not è commented on the issue.

In the other games, Atlanta ruled New Orleans (124-112, 22 points by Hunter from the bench) while Boston è imposed itself on Miami (108-89, excellent game by Brown who put up 29 points). Chicago did well: 128-102 against Brooklyn.
