The Lakers can’t let officiating issues obfuscate the team’s real problems, writes RohanNadkarni
. The Lakers couldn’t take advantage, though. If Davis posted up, Boston would ignore whoever was in the corners and practically triple team AD and shut off the paint. If AD set a screen, the Celtics could easily switch. It took a few possessions for Los Angeles to adjust, but the team lost valuable chances to score trying to figure out that look. And Darvin Ham was searching for answers in the fourth quarter and OT, trying out all three of Troy Brown Jr.
LeBron and the Lakers are reasonably frustrated. It’s been a trying season. The team has fought through injuries. After a horrid start, thanks in large part to LeBron, the Lakers are also way closer to a playoff spot than most imagined they would be. Los Angeles’s resilience is impressive. And so it has to be extra devastating to lose close games against good teams when every win counts and the limits of the roster are being maximized.
