The Los Angeles Lakers are suddenly in dire need of a win after they lost the first two games of the Western Conference Finals to the Denver Nuggets in Colorado.
Many feel LeBron James is starting to fatigue, while D’Angelo Russell has played poorly so far in this series and no one off the bench other than Rui Hachimura has contributed offensively.
Luckily, the Lakers are returning home for the next two games, and they will have the benefit of their home fans, not to mention the oxygen-rich air of coastal Southern California.
These three areas of emphasis should allow L.A. to get on the board in this series before it’s too late.
