The Los Angeles Lakers went into the halftime break trailing by only one single point against the Golden State Warriors. Then, the third quarter happened.
Los Angeles found themselves outscored 35-25 by Golden State as they quickly lost their grip on the ball game. Buddy Hield lit the Lakers up with his shooting, Jimmy Butler kept getting to the free throw line, and the Lakers ultimately lost a disappointing 119-109 contest to the Warriors.
JJ Redick did not hold back any words to comfort anyone's feeling in his postgame comments. The Lakers head coach identified the clear issue that, in his mind, he had seen too many times in his short tenure in Los Angeles.
