The LA Lakers recently lost to the Indiana Pacers in dramatic fashion after rookie guard Andrew Nembhard beat the buzzer to win the game. After this, fans were disappointed with the result as many thought the Lakers would get an easy win against the Pacers.
At halftime, Los Angeles had a 62-56 advantage that helped them build a sizeable lead down the stretch. At the start of the fourth quarter, LeBron James and the Lakers took a 101-84 lead.
However, a 10-2 from Indiana closed the gap to 103-94, sparking a comeback. With 8.7 seconds left and the Lakers leading by two, the Pacers made sure they made the most of their last possession.
The game ended with a wide-open 3-pointer from Nembhard, who beat the buzzer and won the game for his team. What's even more embarrassing is that it was on the Lakers' homecourt, and fans were visibly disappointed with the team's performance.
Here are some of the Twitter fan reactions after the Lakers' ugly loss.
The Lakers (7-12) are 13th in the Western Conference. Despite the big three scoring over 20 points each, the team came up short when it was crucial.
Los Angeles will try to get a win on Wednesday as they take on the Portland Trail Blazers at the Crypto.com Arena next.
Who can save the season for the LA Lakers?
It's been more than a month and the LA Lakers are still struggling to win consistently. Besides James, AD and Russ, no other player has enough experience and knowledge of how to win in the NBA.
The team is struggling against teams above .500. Their lack of offensive consistency has been the biggest problem for the Lakers so far. While the team's defense has looked reliable at times, they are not playing like an elite offensive team.
Overall, if things do not improve soon, there is a good chance the Lakers miss the playoffs again this season.
