It’s time for the Lakers to let the Jazz save their season

As of writing this article, LeBron James and Anthony Davis have led the Los Angeles Lakers to the #2 defense in the league. The only team better is the Milwaukee Bucks, with Giannis having an otherworldly start to the season. Their defensive rating has also improved as the season progressed. You’d think with that level of defense, they’d have at least have a few wins under their belt. Instead, they’ve started 0-5, and it doesn’t look like it will be getting better soon. So how has a team with such an impressive defense looked so bad?
