The Lakers Suffer a Bad Loss Friday vs. the Clippers, and LeBron James Addresses the Rumors

Ooof. This one hurts. The Lakers, in a truly must-win situation, dropped a rough one against Clippers, as has been their wont all year. (105-102, for those keeping score. And the formula, as it were, felt mighty familiar. The Lakers fell behind big... only to dig themselves out of the hole... only to find themselves unable to close the deal in the final minutes. There were good second halves from Talen Horton-Tucker and Carmelo Anthony, along with a great first half from Dwight Howard, but Russell Westbrook was merely fine, and LeBron James was, frankly, pretty bad, which the Lakers simply couldn't afford. And speaking of LeBron, he addressed the swirling rumors about his discontent with the Lakers. Interesting comments, if selectively candid.
