The Los Angeles Lakers Wednesday lost to the Portland Trail Blazers, 107-105.
So many of Los Angeles’ losses could get the “Worst Loss of the Year” title, but this has to be number one. Though both teams were on the second night of a back-to-back, Portland came off an 18-point loss to the 13-43 Orlando Magic.
The Lakers did not have Russell Westbrook for the first time this season due to lower back tightness, but it really didn’t matter. Los Angeles shot 6-of-13 from the free throw line (46.2%), turned the ball over 21 times to Portland’s 11, allowed 28 fast break points to just their four points and the list keeps on going.
