The Los Angeles Lakers continued to be one of the most inconsistent in the NBA this season after their recent matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers. Following two back-to-back wins for the Lakers, many expected the team to do the same against their rivals.
LeBron James certainly played like a man on a mission as he recorded 46 points with a career-high nine 3-pointers made against the Clippers. In addition, James also attained the record of scoring 40 points against all 30 teams in the NBA after his performance.
Despite all that, behind a strong run in the fourth quarter, the Clippers registered an easy 133-115 victory over the Purple and Gold.
LeBron James’ Defeated Look While Russell Westbrook And Dennis Shroder Argued Goes Viral
Dropping 46 points at the age of 38 is no small deal, and LeBron James did just that against the Clippers. Considering he still ended up on the losing side will make any basketball fan feel sad for him.
On top of that, during the game, his teammates Russell Westbrook and Dennis Schroder botched an inbounds play late in the game. This led to a verbal spat between the two. All while this was happening, James’ defeated reaction while sitting on the bench went viral on Twitter.

Seeing James with this defeated look on his face is certainly hard for the Los Angeles Lakers fans. Despite having one of the best seasons of his career, James and the Lakers are heading towards yet another disappointing result to the regular season.
Anyway, speaking of the fight between Russ and Schroder, Westbrook cleared things up in the postgame conference. Westbrook got furious after a reporter tried to ask a question about Schroder.
Whether the two players had a fight or not, it’s up to the fans to assume. But we do know for sure is the fact that Russ and Schroder shot a combined 7-22 from the field against the Clippers, and it played a crucial role in the defeat.
