The beginning of the season has been anything but kind to the Lakers.
They’ve had to play some of the best teams in the West, been hit with an injury bug and started 3-4 on the year. Add in some poor three-point shooting, questionable officiating and a couple of heartbreaking losses and it starts to feel like the deck is stacked against the purple and gold.
D’Angelo Russell says, bring it on.
“It’s still part of the process. I think this is the adversity we need as a group. We still had a chance to win the game with guys out,” Russell said postgame after losing to Miami by one.
