LOS ANGELES -- For the second straight game, the Los Angeles Lakers couldn't close out a winnable game in the clutch. And for the second straight game, the Lakers were left lamenting a foul they believed went uncalled that affected the outcome.
After Sunday's 113-112 loss to Philadelphia, Russell Westbrook claimed Sixers center Joel Embiid grabbed his arm on L.A.'s final offensive possession when the Lakers guard was attempting a potential game-winning layup with 3 seconds remaining.
"I was trying to get my hand up," Westbrook explained afterward.
