LOS ANGELES -- The frustration was heard loud and clear in Luke Walton's voice after he watched the Miami Heat play "tougher" than the Los Angeles Lakers.
The Lakers lost at home for only the second time since Jan. 5 but what agitated Walton the most was what he didn't see from his team in the 92-91 defeat to Miami.
"They were tougher than we were tonight, which is really frustrating," Walton said. "I don't want to lose, but I don't mind losing when other teams make plays. We had moments of playing our brand of basketball and being physical and getting stops but they ended up with 18 more shot attempts than us.
