The downward spiral of the Los Angeles Lakers continued on Wednesday night as the team was once again blown out, this time by 41 points against the Miami Heat. LeBron James led the Lakers with 29 points and eight assists, but it meant absolutely nothing as the defense was poor and the effort of the entire team was lackluster at best.
The Heat tied a franchise-record with 24 3-pointers as they embarrassed the Lakers on every front. This is now six losses in the last eight games for L.A. with four of those being by at least 25 points and the team is now searching for answers as to how to stop this slide.
