Los Angeles Lakers broadcast sent a big message to LeBron James’ teammates ahead of one game, as the King appears to be doing everything for his team recently. The Lakers once again lost on Friday night, dropping to 13-19 for the season with their loss against the Charlotte Hornets.
Following Anthony Davis’ injury, LeBron James has been forced to step up his game and takes more responsibilities than he had with AD on the floor. The 4-time NBA champion doesn’t run away from any of that, but at age 37, LeBron can only do so much for his team.
That’s why many fans have called out the rest of the squad and even asked for some players to be traded. When they couldn’t prevent the 134-130 painful loss to the Charlotte Hornets, James was visibly upset and refused to get helped by teammates to stand up.
Los Angeles Lakers Broadcast Savagely Called Out LeBron James’ Teammates
Before this game happened, the Lakers broadcast was already pinpointing what needed to be done so the team could win against a weaker team like the Charlotte Hornets. Some could say it was a little harsh, but the fact is that the Lakers have made these mistakes before, and they need to stop that if they want to compete against the top teams in the West.
– Help out LeBron
– Don’t allow 40-PT quarters
– 2nd chance points
LeBron finished the night with a game-high 34 points, which weren’t enough to beat the Hornets. His teammates couldn’t do much to help him, either, as Austin Rivers scored 20 points, while Russell Westbrook and Lonnie Walker IV recorded 17 and 15 points, respectively.
The second key was also ignored, as the Hornets dropped 40 in the second quarter, then 30 in the third, and 37 in the final one. This was something they needed to prevent, and the Lakers couldn’t do it.
This team was apparently finding their rhythm in prior weeks, but the AD injury ruined their momentum. Still, even before Davis went down, they couldn’t do much to beat rivals, which prompted fans to urge the front office to make a move. This idea is still in the air, but we’re yet to see which path the Lakers take.
