The Los Angeles Lakers, hopeful after recent health returns, faced a shocking loss against the Chicago Bulls, who dominated 146-115. Despite expectations of victory in a home game, the Lakers demonstrated poor defense, allowing the highest score of their season. They trailed by 34 points at one stage, as issues persisted throughout the match, with Chicago increasing their point total every quarter. With the playoffs approaching and limited games remaining to build team chemistry, the loss underscores the need for improvement ahead of their title pursuit.
The defense was nonexistent, giving up the most points they have this season, and L.A. trailed by as many as 34 in this game.
That was the worst our defense has looked, frankly, maybe all year, but certainly in the last three months.
