LeBron James delivered 37 points, 11 rebounds and seven assists against the Memphis Grizzlies on Wednesday, but the Lakers still lost 104-99.
LeBron James is slowly declining from his career statistical peaks, but the Lakers star is closing in on Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s NBA scoring record.It was the sixth straight game he has scored 30 points or more in, but the Lakers are just 1-5 in those games. He has logged at least 34 minutes per game during that stretch.“Just lost a game that we could have won, obviously,” James said. “But we learn from our mistakes and get better next game.
This was the Lakers’ 20 different starting lineup in 36 games. How difficult does that make things, Westbrook was asked. “[Bleep] is super frustrating, man. We’ve been doing this all year, man,” Monk said. “And we know. We know what it takes. That’s why it’s so frustrating for us. But yeah, man. We just got to be locked in as a whole together and I think we’ll be alright.”
