Only 11 games have been won by LA Lakers this season. Even 11 victories appear impressive when you consider that they were 2-10 at the beginning of the season.
The Lakers are by no means a strong team at present. They now have a record of a little over 40%, which places them in the 12th place of the Western Conference.
The Lakers' most recent loss to the Boston Celtics has put them into serious trouble. The game highlighted a significant problem with the current team: they don't know how to win.
The Lakers have lost a 13-point lead despite having a massive lead because they were unable to hold off the Celtics' incredibly good team.
Skip Bayless, who always criticizes LeBron James, has also spoken on the matter. Skip Bayless, blamed Lebron James for the loss and called the Lakers in a show with Shannon Sharpe.
Bayless claimed the Lakers to be the weirdest basketball team. He also emphasized how despite playing back-to-back games and losing an early 20-point lead, the Celtics managed to defeat the Lakers.
Skip even commented how the Celtics initially appeared "snagged" when they played. Even after their first comeback from 20 points down, the gold and purple team received praise from him. Skip has also expressed his concern about the Lakers' tendency to blow leads.
The Lakers require a solution right away. With each passing day, their goal of participating in the playoffs seems to be slipping more and more.
This team is in need of a few talented, experienced young players. They require more capable role players for handling off-the-bench situations. Ham and Rob Pelinka must soon take the crucial decision very wisely.
